Good for you and her! Kids are a LOT of work to fish with, but it’s time well spent outdoors and away from their devices.

Brilliant moon tonight as we trekked back to the old homestead.

Curious as to what you see in that cloud. I see a Big Eye Tuna going after bait fish.

No flowery notions so close to midnight. It's a formation of crystallized water vapor about six miles up. Gimme 8 hours of sleep and I'll write haiku about it, but not now.

I was looking for info on 1911 mags recently. @Mike 556 says send me your info and I'll send you some mags. I send my info fully expecting him to SWAT me, cause I'm an asshole and probably deserve it... No SWAT, but 6 mags show up. Big Thank You Sir!
Did a little shooting with son. That means I shot a couple mags while he burned through several hundred rds.
Spent a good bit of yesterday doing maintenance. Stapling where needed, straitening gates, washing out tanks.
If you flip over a tank, flat rock or piece of wood around here, it's going to have one of these bitches under it.

Came home to get a quick lunch. I click on this! So much for lunch, You Fuck!!

I do like snickers. But usually I have an apple or orange for lunch. Too easy to get fat eating snickers!

Everybody is asking about topsoil. So I’m gonna try to make some despite it being a bit to wet still.

It wasn't there, then it was and now it's gone.
That is a badass screen!

Using a comparator measures off the ogive for increased measuring accuracy.
The "metplats" are usually plus or minus .002 or .003.
I bought this set a while back, Hornady makes a decent one.

Yep, OAL variations suck less by measuring the way that R is doing it. Your seating die seats on the ogive (or close to it), not the bullet tip. Much better way to go.
Rthur, it’s Monday. Your killing me already taking about the weekend!!!

You're killing me, but thanks for the info.
lol NO!!! Who measures CBTO with a primer in? lmfao You guys are killing me. And remember, it's a Hornady product.
I don't think I've measured off the meplat since the 70's. But that's got nothing to do with the Anvil.
Fgmm is not gonna cut it here

WTF. Nobody at Hornady could figure out a recess for the primer would allow accurate measurements of cartridge headspace without needing to de-prime first. That’s dumb ass hell for a group of otherwise talented people.
Most brass I've ever dealt with the primers are about .003 under flush on the head.
The above were measured with primers installed.

You're funny today. But ONLY today.

edit: Forget the video in regards to the discussion. Just let it go.
Now ya got me having a brain fart.And there ya have it. "If", as we know, the primer is seated correctly "without" crushing the anvil of the primer, hee hee hee there's ANVIL again. Anyhow, you guys already know.
I can see the Anvil from Hornadybeing used with their headspace gauge for after firing. A lot of guns leave part of the primer sticking up after firing. For BTO it wouldn't be needed
Thanks, I'll try some older gold box sk. Supposed to be 20+ mph winds tomorrow so no ammo testing for the 22.
Wind howled here all afternoon. I shot my 10/22 at 100 and 135 yards. Full value at 20+ mph. I was holding 2-2.5 mils at 135 to stay on a 4” plate ?. I run Wolf ME in both 22’s whether they like it or not ?. This particular lot the Kimber Hunter loves, the 10/22 meh.
This lot of Wolf I have is filthy! Leaves little pieces of green/yellow crap all over everything. It shoots pretty decent in my Quad but has a fair amount of flyers.
I'll shoot in the wind if I know the gun will shoot. Then it's on me to make the wind call. For ammo testing I like it calm so I know what the ammo is doing and not so much what I a reading the wind.

Awesome! It's a tough business and I wish Katie the best.
When I was young i would get pissed when spring rolled around the farmers show up with a corn planter rather than a bean drill. I wanted all bean fields around me to shoot ground hogs. How dare they plant corn!
Katie Grace and Kid Rock
I've been reminding her for some time now that "Luck is When Opportunity Meets Preparation".
Last night in Nashville a spark of that came to fruition.
Katie got a last minute opportunity to play a show at the Cafe at Fontanel.
She has been working on her set list of her own originals and classics from industry giants over the cold wet and seemingly endless off-season in Nashville. Sometimes playing to near empty rooms, but always with enthusiasm and grace.
The busy season is turning out to be something entirely different there. In HUGE ways!
In walks Kid Rock and a group of his friends, and Katie is on stage performing.
They stayed for several of her songs and he dropped $100 bill in her tip bucket. He's tied with me for biggest tipper now, but I'll raise the bar next time I see her play
Not likely to be a career-altering moment, but it's a perfect example of what opportunities lie before her, as she continues to prepare.
before every show I remind her of the chance that someone who can make a difference will be in that audience, and that whether it's one homeless guy who wandered in from the rain or a room full of unknowns, you always give them your best show!
I'll be seeing her again in a few weeks. Can't wait!!
Kid Rock and Caleb Caudle
She loves to get snail mail, so I try to send her one or two small notes of encouragement or humor every week.
She found this in her mailbox yesterday. I always put something positive on the outside of the envelope.
The face of sheer joy after her incredible night
Guys, if you're ever in Nashville shoot me a PM and I'll let you know when and where she's playing.
What a great opportunity she has, as well as one hell of a supporter. You're a good man Tucker San. A good man indeed. You know good and well your unselfish and unquestionable support is priceless. Good on you for supporting her journey.
Sunrise this morning just south of down town Tampa.
My buddy Jim moving in to throw the cast net.
Two throws and two packed livewells.
Off chasing tarpon for the remainder of the work day.

First calf of this season at my daughter's place:
Just hit the ground and mom's cleaning her up.
Woke the Cat up and she's put out by the whole thing.
On her feet and hungry.

In my case it’s because the corn obscures line of sight as it gets so tall. In my particular area, there are several large cattle feeders and they have no use for a bean. None the less, I’m shut down from mid June to early September ?
