I know what you mean Steve. I used to swat them with a 2x2 about 36" long and then a 1x4 but the 1by seemed to push air ahead of it as I was bouncing then sideways without actually hitting them. ...

Steve, I will never catch you as the supple of boring bees seems to have taken a downturn in numbers. I saw one this evening and I got the little BB out and as soon as I stepped onto the porch, he...

Numerich Gun Parts have never let me down. Just bought a slide stop spring for a Colt Woodsman and it was the only place I could find one. james

I am now officially a 2024 ace with 5 kills. I got #5 this evening as he was buzzing around the wooden steps looking for a place to bore a hole. He was about 15 feet away and I tried to get closer,...

I like everything about it except the really high front sight. But I know that the gas system on the SKS and AK being on top instead of underneath the barrel makes a high front sight mandatory. ...

Hey, I bet you could win too. That is a bunch of de-priming work. james

I agree, a K frame Smith for $350.00 is a great buy these days. I haven't seen a Model 14 for sale around here for some time now. james

Nice write-up Steve. That ought to silence a few people. I used to shoot wax bullets way back in the early 60's using pretty much the same drill you used. However I never used powder, only a...

Long but an excellent piece of writing. james

There is a guy ( nwilson1024 ) on this site that is making a dandy set of shotgun wad cutters to be used in a hand drill or drill press. They cut and eject the wad at the same time. A video on...

You guys are a bunch of enablers. Your trying to spend my money and doing a good job of it too. james

RCBS will give you one free of charge, or at least they at one time would. Give them a call, james

Yeah, I went to the link website and when I saw the price, immediately backed right out. I not rich enough to pay that much for .22 ammo. BB guns are a lot cheaper on BumbleBees. I have a box of...

My 1st cousins husband was on the border between South and North Vietnam and while he was asleep one night a rat took a bit bite out of his toe. Ended up in the hospital for a couple of weeks while...

Thanks for the excellent write-up urquell. I never thought of LL on shot but it does sound interesting. Should be easy to do. Thanks for the suggestion/question brokeasajoke. james

Heaven protect us from the "experts". I haven't been on RFC in many years and am on the way out of shotgun forum. Lots of snobs who think if you own anything but a Perazzi or Kreighoff you are low...

+1 on Fulton Armory. I have used Fulton Armory in the past to work on my Garands and they did first class work on them. I highly recommend them. james

I have had people tell me that I carry my case preparation too far but then again I have not had a misfire since the early 1960's and that was a factory round. When I get brass, whether it is new or...

One of the Navy guys years ago told us about high school boys earning good money shooting cotton mouth water moccassins in the swamps around the North Carolina and South Carolina borders. The...

urquell, I have been think about trying to load some .45acp loads with rice or something similar. Care to share how your load details? Do you use a wad of some kind, what do you use to hold the...

After giving your post a little thought Kestrel4k, your reasoning is most likely better than mine. I know one thing for sure; it was a lot of work but it was well worth it. james

I used a mixture of 8 and 8 1/2 shot for trap and 8 1/2 and 9 shot for skeet (in some local matches and league shoots) and never noticed any difference when using straight 8 shot or straight 9 shot. ...

I use to swing a 2x2 about 36" long to kill the boring type bumblebees but I am not as quick as I once was. Hitting them with the 2x2 is like going up against a good college fastball pitcher. They...

Well I got another chance today at a boring bumblebee. He was about 10 feet off the porch and about the same distance in the air. The last one was closer, and I got him with 3 shots. This one...

My skills are average at best. There are legions of people on Cast Boolits that have far greater skills than I do. Really I jus lucked into a beautiful rifle that had been hidden beneath a terrible...
