    Pots and fucking pans

    You've been given some good advice on brands. Don't buy a full set of pans. Buy just what you use the most often, usually 8-10" & 12" skillets and 1 1/2 - 2qt. pot with lid. Most sets are a waste of money. Sam's Club has good non-stick skillets cheap enough you can replace them easily when they...

    What’s in a screen name

    It's me. The first user group I joined back in the dark ages didn't allow user names you could hide behind.

    Beretta 686 Onyx Sporting. 687 Silver Pigeon Sporting. Citori 725. I've not shot any of the Turkish competition models but understand they can be very good values and shoot pretty good for the money.

    US Judge Tosses Illinois' Ban On Semiautomatic Weapons, Governor Pledges Swift Appeal

    As good as this ruling is, Judge McGlynn also stayed the injunction for 30 days allowing the state to appeal. The 7th Circuit is not a friend to 2A issues and will likely reverse McGlynn's ruling. That will put it into SCOTUS' purview and they may sit on their hands for months, if not years...

    Gunsmithing Crown Damage

    I dinged the crown of a Rem 700 I have. Used a 45 deg. de-burring tool to fix it. Very light pressure, basically the weight of the tool, and a few careful turns and all is well. This is what I would do again were that my rifle but I am not saying or recommending that is what you should do. A new...

    A Rifle Builders Tool Box

    Do what Dead Eye said and get into a gunsmithing school, and not one of those correspondence schools either. You will be taught how to use the tools and equipment you need. Then go to work for someone already in the biz, for no salary if need be, for experience and to gain useful knowledge you...

    Higher quality trimmers worth it?

    My Giraud trimmer is the one single piece of equipment I cannot do without. I no longer compete and need to trim 5,000 or so cases per year but that trimmer is indispensable to me.

    Happy 100th Jimmy Carter

    A great humanitarian. A truly good person. Inflation during his term was horrendous. The last Democrat I voted for, under duress from UAW union thugs.

    Powder measure for bulk/precision 223

    I threw many thousands charges of RL15 on a Hornady Pro-Jector progressive and a Redding BR-3. For 200-300 yards in highpower thrown charges of a stick powder are perfectly capable of high X clean scores.
