BJB is good to go if it is a trust issue. I'll loan him a few of my posts if need be.

LOL! It depends on how much $ you sink into your setup; another time versus money scenerio. You can make anywhere from a few rounds per hour to several hundred per hour. If you don't have some spare time, reloading probably isn't for you.

Most of the time people come by money dishonestly, it seems they rarely get to enjoy it long term.

100 grain Hornady SP 39 grains IMR 4350 CCI primer Remington case This load isn't very hot, but it is sub MOA in both my pre 64 Winchester model 70, and my 99 Savage F.

It can be produced pretty inexpensively by pulling a handle.

Agreed! The 6.5s are fine, fine rifles.

Cool Musket, Bad Habit!!!

A safety is to a lever rifle with a hammer what a screen door is to a submarine. I find no use for them. If it doesn't bother you, get the new one. I bought one without the safety.

I'd personally be very happy with that. You'll have a lot of people tell you they can do much better. Some can. Many won't stand in front of you and demonstrate it live, however.

Looks great to me!

Not a cancer story, but one you might can relate to. When my wife and I were young and dating, she was in an auto accident coming home from work one evening. It turned out she had a seizure. She was prescribed medicine by a local doctor for epilepsy. For some reason, this didn't feel right. We sought more opinions. We met with a neurosurgeon, and he discovered a mass in her brain. It turned out she would not have made it but maybe a few more days had he not found this. After a long and dangerous surgery, her problem was solved. We've been married over 17 years now, and have two wonderful sons. My point in all of this is: 1)It was scary as hell for a young guy like me. I can't imagine what she was going through. 2)Hang in there! It might not work out as you'd like, but it will work out. 3)Love her, and hold her tight. She needs all the comfort and laughs she can get right now. You are there for a reason. You may or may not ever learn why, but you are there for a reason.

While at the grocery tonight, I saw an older gentleman with the grip of an NAA 22 revolver sticking up from the watch pocket of his jeans. Never saw that before.

If it ain't broke, I doubt I'd take it apart.

I wish they'd have had a chronograph!

If I were wanting one to shoot, I'd buy the VZ24. I have one, and it is a fine quality rifle. If I were wanting one representing Mauser history, I'd want an original German K98. If I wanted the best I could fine in the military gunmaker's art, I'd hold out for a 1909 Argentine. It just doesn't get any better.

The first thing you need to do is POST SOME PICTURES!!!! That's too cool a rifle not to show off.

Ths infield fly rule was a valid call, but it is supposed to be called while the ball is in the air. The ump isn't supposed to wait and see how the play turns out before making the call. Some bookie paid big bucks for that call!!! GO REDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate that you have had to go through all you have recently in order to be able to write this, but I think it should be published and painted on walls. Those are fine words to live by indeed! Prayers and condolences sent for you and your family. Give your wife a great big hug.

After spending most of the day on the phone with a cat in New Delhi named "Andy", I ditched my old Linksys and bought a Netgear from WalMart. It is upstairs. We have 2000 sf+. My kids have several electronic devices, and they work fine all over the house; upstairs, downstairs, basement, and out in the yard.

I loved that! Thanks for posting.

Stomp em and they make a nice, loud pop!

I'm way too sober to watch it!

Consider this for a moment: We all know wealthy people. How many of them do you see standing in line to buy a lottery ticket? As already stated, a lottery is a tax on people who can't do basic math. If you aren't where you want to be, or at least on the path to where you want to be, it is likely due in part to poor money management skills, or perhaps a poor work ethic....or both. If you can't manage money, winning a lottery will be a curse to you; not a blessing.

I understand that Inca and Aztec indians practiced this, and possibly, it was one factor in their downfall. I believe that booze was made for drinking, and the rectum is an exit only orifice, but I have, on more than one oocasion, been called "old school".
