bloomin onions, fried cheese sticks and french fries, including sweet potato fries all sell really well. The flashy signage helps, too. I bet this guy makes a killing. Imagine if you will that the people go to these fairs/rodeos to spend a little money. They wander like sheep grazing and wait to be ...

Hmm which direction do you tap it to again?

In the direction it's shooting, right?

Update: This weekend is the conference in Destin, FL. We are doing better, but she hasn't said, "I love you" since the whole blow-up. I hope God keeps us together and helps her to get over all of her life's dissapointments from her childhood. At least the weekend in Destin will give us bot...

I wonder about using tungsten, but brass is better I guess.

I'd be willing to bet Barnes is going to develope a bullet for you if one of the bigger manufacturers doesn't do it with factory ammo.

Scott64A

Ha ha!

I am a Northerner who had enough, so I moved to GA 5 years ago!!!

The daffodils have been out for two weeks, and the trees started budding last week. The Bradford Pair trees are in blossom, so soon it will be time for crappie fishing!!!

68 here today...

Jealous?

Scott64A

Gotta love those wheelguns!

I've never owned and probably won't own an auto pistol. I like me some SAA.

If I were to get a gun for concealed carry, it would be something in .357 mag with at least a 4" barrel and a double action. Probably a Ruger.

Scott64A

We don't have any dubiously titled "Dr. Vegetable" here in GA but they do fry everything at fairs. Fried dill pickles, fried onions, fried veggies, funnel cake, and of course, deep fried cheese. Yuck. I usually go for the turley leg though, and follow it with some sasparilla and some boile...

Before getting involved in emergency medicine, I explored the options of either radiologic tech or veteranarian. What I found out was hard to stomach being a 32 y/o dad and husband, who owns his home. The only part-time program for vet sciences was in Cleveland. All of the others were FT and require...

Don't hesitate to ask for some prayer support from us EVER.

It's no thang to bow a head and send up a good prayer on anyone's behalf.

-Prayer sent.

Say, a friend of mine had some fancy ammo loaded up in his H&K .40 S&W that had a nylon looking ball in the hollow point. He said it "was like shooting a .357 magnum; around 1450fps."

I bet they were very light, maybe 80 gr or so. The only downside: they cost $1.25 each round!

Scott64A

Hmmmm....

Can these bullets be swaged by a strong press? One could make a hollow point and an ogive that a way if they had enough pressure.

Scott64A

Dang, dude, the avatar is to big! Funny, but too big. I bet if you went to a few tire stores you'd find someone who would part with them, though, the big chains like to reclaim and charge for anything they can resell. Still, some pimple faced kid isn't going to care if you offer to clean out his buc...

Scott64A

Well, Hobie had mentioned in another post that it's really important to get all of the copper fouling out before you shoot lead, as lead sticks to copper better than it does to nickel steel. I had thought I cleaned my Ruger BH well enough with a boresnake, (won't make that mistake again, nosuh,) but...

Scott64A

I don't agree with Moheckan's post at all. Defending your home in an act of self-defense, (and all that statement LEGALLY implies,) is not the same as premeditated murder. -It's just not, nor is it viewed as such by courts. It doesn't matter where you get ammo from, so long as you are a:) threatened...

Scott64A

*grins sheepishly

We used to set 12 ga. shells in the crook of a sapling and then shoot them with a Ruger 10-22 until we could set them off -at a "safe" distance of 50 yds.

Scott64A

Hot darn!

I could see getting one in years to come...
Though, I could just as easily buy a Winchester and still be happy, pre-safety of course.

Scott64A

Still, for $399.00, if it's a quality arm, and shoots well, it's a heck of a deal.

Scott64A

I use either Hoppe's No.9 or Shooter's choice and a light coat of Hoppe's gun oil afterward and have never had anything like this happen to me. With my pistol, I usually take a cylinder full to settle into shooting, and so my groups tighten up a little. No high shots or anything though. I'd say try ...

haha... a two year old... I have a four year old and she never gets to my bench in THE BASEMENT! If you can set aside a little area, enough room for a sturdy desk, then you can get a cheap press at a gun show and all the basic necessities. You can fill n smaller stuff later, but All you need is a po...

"Is Obama the Messiah?" -If by running strictly on a buzzword and winning, maybe so. His record is spotty and lacks any 2nd ammendment support, and he seems to have the welfare votes. Glad to see the Dems ripped down the middle like this. The Homos want Hillary, because she is one, and the...

Scott64A

Excellent replies all. To speak towards Hobie's point about intuitiveness, or intuition, I'll merely make mention that in most of the guns I've ever loaded for, the .357magnum being one, every gun is different, and will "vibrate" differently from another one made on the same day by the sam...

Scott64A

OK, so I did a bunch of research yesterday morning and after asking a good friend of mine who is a mechanic what he thought, he liked the V6 that was in the Sedona. He said the original V6 had some problems, and that when Kia was bough by Hyundai things changed for the better. They no longer install...

Scott64A

Well, what a great rifle.

If I didn't already have a love affair going on with the .30-30, I'd have gone for the .35.

You can sling plenty of lead with it if need be, and load it with lighter projectiles for longer-ish ranges.

I do hope you'll post a range report!

Scott64A

Another great reason to use a powder that fills much of the case.

Couldn't double load with 2400 or Lilgun, nosuh...

-not unless'n you jammed it to compress.

The Optima was paid off in October of this year. The Sorento or the Sedona, either, are both used, they said they got them from an auction in the SW. I'd love to get away from Kia, but I don't think anyone will give me even 2,000 for the car that needs $3,000 worth of work. We had the belt replaced ...

Something of a dilema to me since I have no children - to speak of, that is. My will leaves everything to my wife. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y25/kmastf/PISTOLS/P8100007A.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y25/kmastf/RIFLES/WFP71GR-XSSIGHTS.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y25/kmastf/PI...

I hope you're still watching this thread. My wife's car was bought in '02 for around 12,500. It's a Kia Optima. It has a "zero-tolerance" timing system on it, and what that means is when your timing belt goes, it can and usually does damage the motor. It went. when I went to the dealership...

I have one of these fine rifles, and you better go get it. As Griff said, the run waslimited, in 72-73. The lady at Winchester told me there were 12 thousand some odd made in those two years. I love mine, it shoots great and carries well. Also, and not that I buy guns to collect and resell, I bought...

Scott64A

I'll chime in on behalf of Lee products, too. Most of my reloading equipment has been hand-me-down stuff I got along the way. My dad gave me a Lyman single stage press and it works fine. Wife's uncle gave me a powder scale and an RCBS case trimmer both work fine. I bought a used set of RCBS .30-30 d...

Scott64A

Awesome work!

Say, how did you restore the rifling? Did it have to be polished? If so then what is the diameter now?

I bet cast bullets would do very well out of that thing...

Oooh... I'm beginning to get the bug again.

I know where there's a Winny for $150.00.

Sorry to hear this. We see pneumonia cases all the time, and I will say this on the hospital's behalf: When lungs get THAT infected, even 100% O2 won't give someone enough. Sometimes though, we see pneumonia pts on a nasal cannula at 3Lpm. :x Sounds like it was pretty bad to have to have her tubed t...

Thanks to all. Her car broke down this AM and even though I am 70 miles away and on an ALS ambulance, I still handled it and put out the fire between a stroke call and a chest pain call. She seemed genuinely appreciative, and when I asked her to reconssider leaving me, she said happily, "Yes.&q...

What a great find!

The first thing to do is take off all of that rawhide though.

I expect a detailed range report...

Hmm, I have a 64A and recognize the LEVER, but that tang I've never seen... Probably because I've never had it apart. :wink: Where would I find this tang on mine? So far as I knew, the innards of the 64A were the same as the 94 from the same era, (early 70's). Like I said, I don't know much. Sorry I...

Either way sculbert1, I will enjoy those bullets. I'll try them over 11.5gr of 2400, and if that leads my barrel, then I'll have to drop it down to non-leading levels. So the question now is, after shooting some 25 jacketed bullets, and then going over to the LSWCs, how will I know if I am getting l...

Scott64A

Oooooh.... I don't very much like the sound of a "lead remover". I guess I'll load them very light. Plinking. Though, sculberbt1 said he had no problems at al with them, and he got the best accuracy from them. I'll be sure to check for signs of leading frequently, and if I have some jacket...

Scott64A

Handloaders reloading data says 13.8gr of 2400 is the starting load but shows fps at 1290.

These are cold swaged, prelubed Magnus bullets I got in trade. Is 1290fps ok or will I get fouling?

Also, the loads for Lilgun started at 17.0 and had around 1500fps... Will this foul in my 6.5in Ruger BH?
