It's a sad year when the AFC South looks as bad or worse than the NFC West.

CHMR (AKA Charlie's Place, AKA Owl Hollow) is just outside of Spring Hill. It's about 10 minutes away from the 840/I-65 interchange. If you're on the north or west side of Murfreesboro, then it may be closer than Walden's.CHMR $40 for an annual membership then you can shoot all day every day that it's open. Closed Thursdays and the first full weekend of a month. It has a handgun area and rifle targets spaced at 25, 50, and 100 yrds. There are a couple of spring-loaded clay throwers for shotgunning and the last I heard a 200yrd range was in the works.

I've gotten lots of good advice on repairs for various cars over on Automotive Forums. Here's the Sequoia forum: Sequoia - Automotive Forums .com Car Chat Glance through the first few pages. If you see the same issue in the thread titles repeatedly, consider that a common problem and decide if it's a big one or not to you. Something silly like "windshield washer hose clogged" or the like wouldn't keep me from buying a model, but a lot of transmission issues would. ETA: I read through some of the Sequoia posts. I saw nothing that concerned me. The common question is how to program the remote garage door openers. It's not a very active forum, which could mean 2 things. there aren't many problems, or people who own a Sequoia don't do their own maintenance. The Jaguar forum is a good example of this. Very few threads relative to other brands, even for their smaller sales volume.

The Nashville Banner was one of the last good newspapers in the state. It has been gone for years now. The Tennessean is owned by Gannet, the people who bring you the hard hitting news of USA Today read by weary travelers in Hampton Inns across the country.

Clerk kills would-be robber who grabbed daughter - Yahoo! News

+1 to Wally World.

It was today. Big +1 to piercedan and Mrs. piercedan for coordinating the food. Good choice. It's always good to meet TGOers and put faces to names. I had a great time and was able to break in 3 brand new shooters today. I think they're hooked. A big thanks to Wildogre for helping with that on the fly.

I don't know about packaging of the DVDs, but yes, Season 1 did have a little girl Zombie that had to be put down. Episode 1.

Pretty much whatever you want. The target boards are 4'x8' sheets of plywood/OSB. There's a painted 6" border that you need to keep off of, but pretty much if it fits on the board, you can shoot it. You can also place clay pigeons on the berms to have a reactive target. Just keep them low on the berms. Wal-Mart and Academy have cases of them for pretty cheap. No targets, ammo, or other supplies are sold at the range, so bring what you need.

Excellent! So scratch that about plates and chips.

What's in your bug out bag? What's the current wait time on an HCP?

Yes, Steve Anderson is the Davidson Co. CLEO. Yes, I filled it in on-line then printed it. Don't forget to put an X in one of the boxes on #14. You can't do that on-line, so do it after printing. I forgot to check it and the ATF sent it back to me with a little note on it. No big deal. I checked it and sent it back in. Delayed it about a week or so overall. My license arrived last week, so now I need to get copies out to Brownell's, Midway, etc. Good times!

Next week the son will be doing some engraving. That might be cool to see. I've never seen anyone doing that before.

They were left overs from one of the Top Shot challenges that Discovery got on the cheap from History. Look for some exploding targets soon. Oh wait....nevermind. The wife is too old to be anywhere close to as hot as she thinks she is. But she either had a good boob-job surgeon or the best push-up bra ever made. I feel like a dirty old man when the daughter is on screen, what with me drooling over her Colt Commander and everything.

Discovery - Mondays at 10e/9c Yeah, especially since he then had something to see the insides of, made the adjustments, and came out spot on perfect for the 2nd one. I wonder how much of that is him being himself, and how much is for TV. It's pretty boring to watch if he walks in to the gun room and says "'Em are sum nice guns. I'll give ya 20 grand fer 'em". Part of the show is why he's paying 20 grand for them. But they can cover that in a one-on-one interview then edit it into the negotiation process, like they do on Top Shot with the interviews mixed in with the competitions.

What I didn't get was that dude loaded a duffle bag with cash, hired a chopper to the ranch, then only bought 4 guns? In the shop he sounded like he was going up to buy the whole collection. I know he may have tried to get more and then it could have been edited for TV running time, but it just looked silly. I'll try another episode or 2, but I don't know that this has much staying power.

Guns, ammo, and a PM to piercedan if you're eating. Everyone who's eating, bring a little something to share so we have something besides the meat. A pack of Oreos, a bag of chips, stuff like that. I'll bring a folding table or two myself along with plates, napkins, and forks.

Granny had better restrict it to non-slug shotguns then. The charts below are all assuming the optimal conditions with weather, elevation, and angle, but you'll get the general idea. Except for .22 short all rifle rounds travel a good deal farther than 1000m. In the right conditions, .22LR can go over a mile. http://www2.huntercourse.com/tennessee/study?chapter=3&page=8 As do handguns except .25ACP and maybe some other small calibers not listed. http://www.info4guns.com/graphics/handgun_range_distance.gif Slugs go way out there too. Check the chart at the bottom. HunterCourse.com

I just called Charlie to give him a heads-up. He said "ya'll come on!" Let's plan on eating at 12:30, so arrive accordingly. If you're just shooting, then probably around 1:00. Membership is $40 for the year and includes as many visits as you can manage and covers minors that accompany you. It's the best deal anywhere. There's no time limt per visit. Just leave when you're done or closing time, whichever comes first. The CHMR website says it's $40/person, but one of Charlie's range officers told me it covered the whole household when I brought my wife once. You'd probably want to ask Charlie himself to know for sure. $5 per person for non-members, who must be with a member. There will be plenty of members there (me included) who you can say you're with if you think this will be a one-time visit for you. Just hand Charlie a five-spot and tell him you're with the TGO group. He's easy to find. It's closed on Thursdays now, but the site doesn't mention that. <<from the CHMR site>> Range Schedule The range is open 7 days a week year round opening at 8AM Monday-Friday and at 9AM on Sundays. On the first weekend of the month, the range is closed in an effort to aid noise reduction for the neighborhood. Range closing times are as follows: [TABLE=width: 74%] [TR] [TD=bgcolor: #808000] January 4:30 February 5:00 March 5:20 April 6:30 May-August 7:00 September 6:30 October 5:30 (5:00 after time change) November 4:30 December 4:00 [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]

The cause seems to be that when the JHP passes through the clothing, bits of the cloth/fabric get jammed into the cavity on the front of the bullet. That makes its shape closer to FMJ than a JHP, keeping it from mushrooming out as much.

It's not penetration that's a problem. It's expansion. 40 cal will not have a problem getting through winter clothing. The Box O' Truth #8 - The Rags O' Truth - Page 1

I think this guy shoots handguns on the weekends at Stones River.

Yeah. That doesn't make sense at all. If that's the policy, how are they supposed to put the holes in them? edit: fer spelllin'

This, boys and girls, is why we need to know the difference between there, their, and they're.
