    For the 22, we used about 3/16 plates at an angle of about 30 degrees to the line incoming. 6 inch pipe to slow down the pills. I made Paul do all of the cutting and fitting. Heh, heh.
    We need somebody/something to keep the government (cops and bureaucrats too) HONEST (by non government oversight).

    Every "freedom" (latitude) given to government is a loophole in the rule of law. Every loophole in the rule of law is another hole in our freedom. When they even obey the law that is. Too often government seems to feel itself above the law.

    We forgot to take out the trash in 2012, but 2016 was a charm! YESSS!

    What are the dimensions of the target side? Sounds like from the size of the plate that the one I'd need would be too heavy for me to lift due to the massive size of the thing. LOL. A picture would be great.
