    Nice work guys! I'm still doing my thing too. Got my wood cut, getting it split up, and then on to stacking. Shane

    The Crying Game.......... 2 episodes in 2 days!!

    Well, to be honest, you are coming across as quite the 'drama queen' yourself.

    Moving : Helena, MT

    Plenty of liberals in MT. The difference here, there is still a 'live and let live' attitude, for the most part. To give you and idea, MT just voted to legalize rec marijuana. The govt is jumping through the hoops to facilitate it as we speak. I lived here in the 1970s, as a teenager, small...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Underwood 357 Sig 65gr Xtreme Defender Chrono Test

    I believe the Montana Highway Patrol has been carrying the 357 Sig for many years.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Underwood 357 Sig 65gr Xtreme Defender Chrono Test

    I'm fairly mainstream in my carry ammo. Sometimes being a gun enthusiast just leads one into trying out new stuff to satisfy curiosity. On the other hand, body armor is becoming more common among many, including the criminals/anarchists. Probably not a high risk here in rural Montana, but...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Underwood 357 Sig 65gr Xtreme Defender Chrono Test

    Mudrunner, I like the midsize rounds, 308 and 30-06 are my precision rifles (still). Wasn't so long ago a guy would get chastised for talking/sharing anything shooting the 308 past 1000 yards....it was 'arrogant'....lol. Now that the 'Hail Mary' shot has been legitimized as long range fun by...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Underwood 357 Sig 65gr Xtreme Defender Chrono Test

    308 Pirate doesn't know me at all, nor do I know him. I haven't really been posting much since he has joined. I didn't just fall off the turnip truck, though. Actually been doing this for a little while. I happen to remain a fan of the 308 myself. Here's some 308 goodness of mine that 308...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Underwood 357 Sig 65gr Xtreme Defender Chrono Test

    I wouldn't feel doubtful about carrying the +P or +P+ Xtreme Defender in my 9mm, either the 65gr or 90gr. The reason I do not, is more to do with cost than anything else. Historically I've always liked heavy for caliber. 147gr XTP was my carry ammo for many years. A couple years back I...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Underwood 357 Sig 65gr Xtreme Defender Chrono Test

    Probably not the best load for digging deep, but they seem to handily meet the FBI protocols for penetration. Anyhoo, I'm not here to argue terminal/wound ballistics. I have been curious how fast these things would actually go from the 6" barrel. Now I know. I figured it was worth sharing...

    Solid copper at 2200+ might be good at penetrating certain things, if you get my drift.

    Maggie’s The Woodchuck and Firewood Hoarders Thread

    This is worth repeating. In the early part of my 'firewood season' when I'm cutting, it's the hottest, Aug/Sep. The PPE is hot, makes the work that much more tiring. But the consequences of not using it could be life changing....or life ending. Stay safe.

    I'm about caught up on firewood for this winter. Just in time too, looks like we'll get 6-12" tomorrow night, and temps dipping below zero.

    View from the office today. Getting the rounds split up.

    I'm getting through my firewood. got the cutting done, splitting now, stacking soon. I just freehand the sharpening, with a round file in the blade, and a flat file on the depth gauge.

    130g Barnes TTSX in a 308 LTR?

    I'm afraid I dumped all my pics from photobucket, and lost the data one or two hard-drives ago. I cannot even recall what powder I used. Sorry no help at all.
