Hope you heal up fast. I'm only a little younger than you and I fuss at my parents regularly about keeping their phones on their person when out for that very reason.

4.5" here now. Had fun playing in it with the boys. :)

Avoid Atlanta.

Got at least 3" and counting here. Yay. But I'll take snow over ice any day.

Can anyone find a price reference?  In the $400 range, I hope.    I don't think this is much uglier than anything else... Glock, XD, M&P,  (Hi Point excepted)... none of them will win any beauty contests.  The only thing that really matters is what the target looks like. 

I freely admit to being a fair weather rider.  I don't like being cold or wet, and both is downright miserable.  My bike has been sitting in my garage for a couple weeks now.  I've heard that riding in the snow can be fun (I have a dual sport), but this icy, sloppy, wet mess is awful and I'm not wiling to break me or the bike in name of fun.   As for what have I missed out on...?  Darn near everything.  My only indoor hobby is the guitar (unless napping is a hobby...) so I've been doing more of that lately.  Otherwise, I'll continue to wait impatiently for the sun to reappear.

The post is supposed to be just a post.... the pumpkin is the target, see the top left in this picture. Some people prefer a different sight picture. This image shows 3-dot sights, but he idea is the same with a peep/aperture/ghost ring sight. Image 1 is as I describe, pumpkin on a post. The bullet hits the center of the bull which is slightly above the top of the post. This allows you to see most of the target. Image 2 is more common with blade type sights where the bullet hits directly on top of the post. Image 3 is what I believe is sometimes called a "fine bead" where the bullet hits below the top of the post. I don't like this one because it obscures too much of the target... you can't see what you're shooting at.

100rd value packs for under $30 is a good deal.  I'm a bit surprised they let you have all 5 boxes. 

By "hard to judge for elevation"... do you mean just using a hold-over to compensate for bullet drop (aka KY windage)?   I try to set my irons for the "pumpkin on a post" zero.  That allows you to move the front sight up/down within the aperture to adjust for elevation.  You can also get front sight posts in various widths to suit your preference. 

Indeed. Thankfully ours are only on a delay today. Hopefully it'll begin to dry out. I believe the golf clap would have been appropriate at that moment...

Why? Because they're uninformed, ignorant or their boss is. Want a laugh, hand them a US passport.

Blazing Saddles is one of the greatest comedies ever! My wife and I love it and quote it all the time. The neutered version they show on tv is terrible. We made my parents watch it several years ago. We laughed hysterically, them... not so much. :D ".... tell him I said ow, got it."

I hope Kanye is on the front row. :D

Cool. Seems like if you have a drill to tighten the bolts, you could use it to raise the trap instead of the winch.

Your DL number and your HCP number are the same.

I thought about shoveling the slush yesterday. It's mostly gone today. Sometimes laziness pays. :) But it's even foggier now than this morning. :/ .

Sounds like the jars are over filled. Some things boil up more than others. As for the seal integrity, I'd say it's fine. If you're concerned, just be careful when you open the jar and clean off any residue.

Have I mentioned that I'm tired of this crap weather? It's 37 deg and foggy. Humbug.

Unless they're masking the bore, the inside of the barrel does get coated with their process. The thickness of the coating is of no functional consequence.

Since you've got 18 acres, is there any way to stretch one out to 300 (or more) yds?

That's the gold colored coating that's been put on drill bits for years. If you've got a gun that you plan to put tens of thousands of rounds through and/or you use dirty ammo and just want to make cleaning it easier... maybe it's worthwhile. Or if you just want it to look purdy...

Melting with drizzle here, temp up to 42 at the moment. Let the mud and floods begin...

300 yds is really close. People shoot (handguns mostly) about 500 yds from my house. While it's not loud, it's plainly audible inside my house.

Certainly! You'd need to provide the ammo, of course. HD video would require a small additional fee.
