    So they got some of our weapons, but how long can they feed them?

    Yeah, I agree. And Russia! And not just NV but the helicopters and any com/nav equipment.

    So they got some of our weapons, but how long can they feed them?

    I expect maintenance to be there biggest problem. Their AK's probably require less than our M-4's. Helicopters have to be maintained. Just saying............ I do hate to hear of them having our night vision and heavy weapons. Really hate that we left anything over there.

    So…Are the Hospitals really full or are they at max capacity

    My Wife had a flair up with Diverticulitis and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. They checked her over in the emergency room about 8:00 PM and she got a room about 2:00 AM. So I would say close to maxed out. The Nurses are slow so obviously they are overworked.

    Any electricians out there?

    If your switch seems to be up side down it may be part of a 3-way switching scheme. Look at the switch that you say is up side down to see if you can see the words on and off. 3-way switches have no on/off markings and I bet you have another switch that will also control that receptacle...

    Recommended Neck Turning Tool

    I agree with the others, neck turning for a factory chamber probably won't yield and increase in accuracy and may shorten brass life as you increase the room for more expansion. I have several neck turning tools. K&M, Sinclair and PMA all make nice tools. Sometimes you see an older Hart tool...

    Which arbor press to buy?

    I like my Sinclair press ok. I've not compared it to other presses but it and Wilson dies make great ammo for me.

    Anyone grow flowers for dove?

    I've been hosting a Dove hunt for the last 12 years or so. Usually about 20 of my Friends and their Families and my Family with their Friends. I usually plant Sunflowers and fertilize and spray them as recommended. Last year I fought the weather, worked way to hard and spent way too much money...

    5.56 LC Brass Case Failure?

    I'm going to guess and say that those cases were fired for their first time in some type of chamber with loose headspace. If so, the damage was already started before you loaded them. I've seen lots of cases fired in M-16's/M-4's that hit the ground looking like they were broken into. They were...

    What happened to the art of the "Hustle?"

    I ran a sideline electrical business the biggest part of my adult life. It paid for 2 college educations, some guns, several nice hunting trips, some nice jewelry for the Wife and lots of other stuff. My "real" job gave me a nice retirement.

    Olympic wannabe pothead.. oops

    To me this is sad. She is a very talented athlete with what seems to be a good attitude and a bright future that blew it over this. Yeah, rules are rules and she broke them. Still sad to me.

    Happy Independence Day everyone. Lets not forget those that went before us and made this Holiday possible. Sure, its a fun weekend on the lake or around the BBQ grill on the deck for many of us, but its also much more. Be safe everyone.

    Reloading for Benchrest

    In benchrest you are probably going to have a tight neck chamber on your rifle. So, you are going to be using neck turning tools, measuring tools and turning and expanding mandrels. And most likely an arbor press with hand dies such as Wilson makes.

    Bullet organization and storage?

    I store my factory bullets on shelves in their original boxes. I do like the grocery stores and have like kinds of bullets stacked in front of each other. Oldest to the front. I also cast most of my pistol bullets and these are stored in wide mouth plastic jugs with the bullet and alloy info...

    First reloads not going as planned...

    I really don't see enough primer flatting to bother me. The craters are probably from a sloppy firing pin fit. The scratch would bother me. I would run a patch into the chamber and twirl it around and see if anything snags it. You may even be able to see into the chamber with a light. A bore...
