Guys. I did NOT kill this snake. I wanted to let Steve know his post had an impact. I WOULD HAVE a few days ago, thinking I was erring on the side of caution.
I'm resolved to make a greater...

Two days ago, I'd have shot this guy just to be sure. King snake? I think it is. Not sure enough to get any closer though. lol

They're always going under my siding. I figured that was bad. I'm from the north until the last few years. Some of the creatures here are new to me.

I've been thinking about the wear & tear on my brass since you posted this. I got to thinking that rice load doesn't weight much (14.5gn in my load) and there's no recoil. Is wax, glue, crimping,...

I tested some mustard seed. Worked ok, but the pattern opened up a little fast with my revolver. Might work for you, though.

Could try covering it for the first 20 minutes in the oven. The steam keeps the crust from getting tough as fast. It helps with sourdough. I've never made banana bread.

I have a little box that holds 13 .357 mag rounds. It fits perfectly in my watch pocket. Keeps the dirt off and keeps them from mixing with whatever else is in my pockets or getting lost. It's...

I was out behind the garage, feeding the chickens, when I heard it. Faint, at first. Just nudging the edge of my consiousness. As I finished up and shut the coop door the sound came into focus. ...

The "edit" option in the dropdown doesn't exist in all versions of windows. I wanted to keep it as close to "works for everybody" as possible.

You are not crazy. Or, we both are. I have witnessed this.
It's like there's a spiral pathway, such that it only leaks when turning in the correct direction.

Between the cheap primers and the powder I would have eventually tossed, it's cheaper than plinking with rimfire. And more fun than shooting cans.

Tried my hand at this a few days back. First shot dropped one. Then I spent a dollar on primers just making noise and figured that was enough of that.
But then, my order of those Argentinian...

A.K.A. carpenter bees. Other bees can handle pollinating without drilling holes in your deck and anything else they can get at. They're horrible little creatures.

It may be possible that it could prevent clogging by the t-shirt, jeans, jacket, towel, or whatever you have over your gel for testing. I've read about some HPs getting clogged and not opening up...

My fryer always wants to make a mess on the counter with tallow or lard. Works good in the skillet, though.
Pour it in jars while it's hot. It'll last for years with no moisture and a good seal.
