Been drinking fresh cow milk since I was around 10 years old, still at it for over 50+years. Tried fresh Goat's milk, here and when I was in Vietnam, I'll stick with the local cow's version.
Putting together odds and ends, remember having stashed here and there. Started out with a find at the back of a shelf in the Garage. 173gr. FMJ BT, Match Grade bullets[sniper], well over a thousand+, two thousand CCI # 34 primers [US Guv-mint] on a shelf in a small box in my "gun room", an...
Forgot a trick I learned about a long time ago to help the process along. Put pad in one of those large plastic bags [zipper kind] that are used to store foods in a freezer and drown the pad. Place bag on top of refrigerator at the very back, to allow the warm air coming off the coils to keep...
Bought one a few years ago, 12 ga. with F&M barrel chockes #1853 made in 1939 according to Old Guns.Net. It had been a truck gun for many years according to the owner. Lite rust all over and in the barrels, action was rusted also, pistol grip had been heavenly stained with body grease, forearm...
490 refugees coming to Indiana? Are those the ones already at Atterbury? Are there more on their way? Who will be "wet nursing" them? How long are they staying there? Are each one of them "vetted" ? Are they going to be examned for any medical problems, any mental problems, physical problems...
Pace car coming into the pit area at a high rate of speed and eventually takes out part of the bleachers at very end. People running away from the hit, one guy jumped pup to the very top railing holding on for his life. Year was 1971, had tickets for seats behind the pits. Saw the tires being...
I get technical about the whole thing. 1st depends on what state the brass is in. Really nasty gets a mixture of fine sawdust [40lb. bag last for a long time] with a teaspoon of Bar Keeper's Friend. Took a while to get the right mix though. Once fired brass doesn't have to be in the tumbler very...
From my old files: H335 was surplus Olin WC844 for full-charge loads in the .223 Remington and .308 Winchester. If you can find any of the Olin, and no 335, it's just another way.
So tell me, what should I ask for some CCI#400 primers? Had been using them for years, but after reading a lot of posts on the Net, switched to '450's and got some improvement in group sizes for three rifles. Got enough .223's loaded up now to last a number of years. Those 400's are taking up...
Hmmm, couple of years ago just before the first[?] ammo shortage time period and long waiting lines the CMP announced that they had 20,000,000 rounds of .22LR for sale in 5000 rd. boxes that came from a warehouse somewhere. It was all gone in about 3 or 4 days, but not before I did some figuring...
Hmmmm, remember the last big go around? Long lines waiting to buy some .22LR? Then none to be found for any amount of money. Got me to thinking, get an envelope in back of the sock drawer ready for when .22 ammo is back, put some $ in each pay period, I'll have money to spend. Took awhile, but...
And from what I've read, it's all paid for. Checking that out, it's true but in 30 year bonds. How is that paid for? Like when wife and I had a new house built, it was paid for when we moved in. But the loan [bonds?] that paid everything off took 20 years to pay off until we could legally own it...
Go to LGS looking for a certain item, doesn't have it, says they can't seem to get it, maybe have to wait a few weeks, find what I want in another state, order it, Indiana sales tax added on, and some low life politician says I should have purchased it here? I say "kiss me where the sun never...
