OT: Looking for help buying a metal detector
Hello friends, I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I'm looking for a decent metal detector for my father for his birthday. He has recently retired, and the farm still keeps him busy, but we're looking for something to promote a little recreation as well. I'd appreciate your thoughts on brand na...

Who had the .405 brass for sale?
Saw a note on the board Friday evening about an assortment of .405 brass for sale. If whoever has it makes it over here to this board, I would like to have that brass for a friend. If someone has contact information for the seller, that would be appreciated, too.
Take care, Regan
Take care, Regan

Hello, Paul, thanks for your response. The orange new post indicators work, and take me to the first unread post on the new threads. The thread titles get lighter after I click on them and stay that way while I read the rest of the threads, but then when I come back later on (usually the next day), ...

Question about the subject titles here, and return visits
Folks, Someone here (heck, EVERYONE here) knows more about computers than I do. Why is it that the subject titles on this board highlight when I read them, and stay that way as long as I am on the board, but when I return the threads that I have read look the same as the rest of them? Interestingly ...

Jason, I wholeheartedly second Undaunted Courage . For historical fiction, try James Alexander Thom's Long Knife , based on the life of George Rogers Clark, From Sea to Shining Sea , also based on the Clark family but over much broader perspective, and Follow the River , the story of Mary Draper Ing...

Is there any way on this board to highlight the posts we've read in the past, so we can more easily return to them, or to jump to the first new post on a thread when we click the thread title? I think that is the most frustrating thing for me on this board- I read a lot more than I post. I appreciat...

Thanks again, 1886, I appreciate it! Bob A, I can't definitely answer either of your questions, yet. I'm fishing for answers here, myself <G>. I figured 1750-1800 would be plenty, and had thought to try 20:1 alloy or wheelweights and soft lead in a 50/50 ratio. I am uncertain without testing a few l...

Best cast bullet and load for .35 Remington?
Gentlemen, I'm tinkering with the idea of casting for my Marlin 336 in .35 Remington, since I cast for everything else that I shoot. What bullet do you find best (I'm looking hard at the RCBS 35-200-FN), and what load shoots most accurately? Intended use is plinking, large varmints, and deer (with t...

Thanks, Smoke'um. There is certainly no love lost between myself and the Tech administration, for numerous reasons <G>. In fact, I left there just months shy of a Master's because I couldn't stomach the politics and policies of the imported leaders of the University. That's fine, it led me into the ...

Smoke'um, the best I can say is that your expectations are completely out of line for the university as it exists at this point. I will not argue that there SHOULD be some kind of communication or warning system, but the fact is that there is none in existence at this point. It's hard to use somethi...

Smoke'um, as the old saying goes, don't be too quick to believe what you read or hear in the media. I assure you that much of what is being aired is off-base or just flat-out in error. I think folks hear what a small town Blacksburg is, and imagine the college as just a few quaint stone buildings. A...
