I have always enjoyed fishing. A close friend had a condo near the Daytona race track that we would visit a few times each year when the weather warmed up a bit. One day we were on the pier fishing...

East TN has always had a reputation for moonshine. My wife's uncle used to drive loads for the shine makers in Newport. He was a tough old bird and no one had the courage to ask about his days in...

WDW44, PM coming your way.

Many years ago a fellow I respected for his wisdom spoke to me about how to value other people. His words were: "You can measure the worth of a man by two standards. The first is how he keeps his...

I will toss in another vote for the Lee 358-105 SWC boolit.

Mr_Flintstone, PM coming your way.

I found these clips to interfere with my handling of the pistol. My tactic is to tighten my pants belt 1 notch tighter than is comfortable, then insert the pistol between the pants and shirt. Holds...

Several years ago a friend (?) gifted me with a new set of .25 ACP RCBS dies and shell holder. Some friend! This got me started looking to find a mold and wound up using an Ideal Perfection mold...

I have an RCBS mold for the 45-70 cartridge that claims it will cast a 300 grain boolit. Doesn't matter whether I pour straight WW alloy or 50-50 WW and pure lead into this mold, it always drops a...

You are very lucky to be able to eat anything you want without a doctor slapping your hand. My current diet allows NO beef or pork products, no foods with high or even medium fat content, sugar and...

Over my days I have had more than a few occasions to see the Grim Reaper creeping around behind me, escaped from him every time. Around 2 years ago I started my reductions of projects that had...

I have an older Rossi '92 (so old it is branded Interarms) in .357 Magnum with the short 16" Trapper length barrel. The front sight post is a permanent part of the front barrel band. The top of the...

The longer you have it and shoot the more you will come to appreciate it. Happened to me years ago on a Rossi Trapper in .357 Magnum. Was really hoping to locate a Marlin but they were all bought...

Many years ago I started searching for a .358 mold that would supplement my other SWC molds, most of which had a protruding nose section that tapered inward toward their top. I wanted a wider nose...

This past Friday was a busy day. I had already divided my boolit stash into 2 groups - those to keep "as is', all the others to melt. I have 3 Lyman ingot molds and used them to collect my new...

I have been a boolit caster for just over 50 years (yup, old phart). During that time I have cast for practically every firearm I have owned and that was a lot. Kept adding more molds, now have...

We used to get our home deliveries around 10 A.M. Then it changed to "when ever we get around to your street", early or late. Two days ago there were no deliveries until I heard a Post Office...

When I hear anyone speaking about electronic rifle triggers I remember a friend who passed about a year ago. He was a retired commercial pilot who loved firearms and long range hunting. He had...

My aunt (father's sister) was a fan of iced coffee many years ago. She would enter a restaurant and order "iced coffee" which usually got a "we don't have that" from the servers. This aunt would...

Many years ago our local police department would allow their officers to carry any handgun they could qualify with at the range. One of our guys came in with a P7PSP, several mags, and a "test this...

I have a Win. 94 (top eject) in 375 Win. and wanted to throw cast boolits through it. The only molds I had at that time were the Ideal 375248 (255 gr. plain base) and the Ideal 375296 (265 gr GC). ...

The earlier comments about the Astra 400 being able to accept several different cartridge calibers restored a long forgotten memory to me. A man approached me with the offer to sell me his Astra 400...

Our local Dick's gave up on selling firearms and ammo, then everything else that would suggest hunting. Haven't been into their store since then.

Several years ago a young couple (him & her, dating) were out riding on his motorcycle after sundown. They were going a bit too fast and caught the attention of a police officer who tried to stop...

Years ago when I worked at our local police department the officers were allowed to carry any handgun with which they could qualify. Lots of various firearms were seen being worn then. Came the day...
