Got side tracked repairing my backhoe. Weighed out 6 charges for the cannon test. Wrapped the weighed charges in foil to transport to the top of the hill. First 2 will repeat the normal 1/4 cup charge, second 2 will be 1/3 cup, third 2 will be 1/2 cup. Won't exceed 1/2 cup for safety reasons. If it still has a problem with that, it's got to be a bad lot of powder. Not sure what to do with 4 lbs. of bad powder, might find some rocks that need breaking. Think the outcome of the test will decide if it makes it to the shoot. To Love Life, I had a dredging permit for Desert Creek last summer. Moved 4-5 yards through the little 2" dredge and didn't get more than 2 little flakes. Had a great time though. Moving to a different place this summer with the little dredge. 2 miles south east of the Arrowhead mine is where I took the deer this year, in the burn area. Dredge permit only good in Nevada, California banned it quite a few years back. Need to take this part out of the thread, and will send a email address in a PM to continue it.
