    Guilty as charged! Of course, it's the old Federal in the white boxes with black print that was sold by the case so I bought one when I bought a Garand (won't say how much HXP I bought!) and a Mossberg target 22 at the North Store if that gives you an idea of how long ago that was...

    See this is why we need a sub forum for casting boolits. People asking after each others health, discussing rim fire ammo and all sorts of non bullet casting stuff. I too figured out how to have sarcasm font.

    Good luck with the rehab, had my shoulder worked on last year, made a world of difference. No longer swore out loud if I jerked arm sneezing. Does take awhile to get that last 20% of recovery.
    Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.

    Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

    Leaving for therapy now, bet I'll be using some curse words myself before I get back home, and you are so right- coughing, yawning & sneezing are NOT my friends!
    Thanks!

    At 700 to 2500 fps, yes it is. But it's good he thinks that, keep the truth on the low-low, or else you'll have more competition for lead....

    While I do not meet the age criteria you refer to, I am looking forward to this new sub-forum, Charles.

    Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.

    I guess some folks really live by never send a bullet where you can direct artillery. But it is a little tough to fill the stew pot after using this approach on a bunny hunt.
