    Dream muscle car

    Back in the day, I never had the means to have a muscle car, but I've always been partial to 67-69 the Camaro so now if I was looking to get into it, that's probably where I would start. I had a couple friends that had some bad-ass cars. One guy had a '67 383 Roadrunner that was all hopped up...

    RFI: Sandals Vacation Experiences?

    I've been to Playa del Carmen a couple times at Riu resorts and have been very pleased. If you choose the higher end ones you won't have to deal with too many kids, and the food and service has always been stellar. My daughter and boy friend just went to the Barcelo Maya right before Christmas...

    Michigan 1st annual Precision Rifle Steel Challenge UPDATE FULL ROSTER

    I think your biggest issue will be transporting firearms and ammunition over & back through the border. I'm sure those border guys will raise some eyebrows at that precision gear. Come on down!

    Traveling for work

    Everyone has made good points. I started travelling for work 12 years ago. And as everyone has said, your friends may think its all glamorous, but its really not. Yes, you may get to go to some cool places, but you rarely have time to see the sights. I mainly fly, so that can be annoying...

    Importance of eye protection

    Glad you're OK. I used to shoot without eye protection because everything I had used got banged up by sights, etc. (Shooting service rifle). After seeing a rifle blow up at a club a few years back (everyone ended up OK), I got religon. I shoot at the National Matches every year at camp Perry...

    Really sad news-PS Magazine gone!

    Re: Really sad news-PS Magazine gone! That's too bad. My only complaint on PS was that they seemed to lean toward the benchrest crowd. I personally did not care to drop deep into the weeds on some of the topics they focused on. Good stuff I'm sure, but not my cup of tea. Pleasure reading...

    A little help with furniture.

    Re: A little help with furniture. A good bit of the furniture in our home is Stickley. We have the sofa in the L & JG Stickley style. While a very nice piece of furniture, it is not all that comfortable. It's fine for sitting up straight and reading a book, but it's not your kick back in...

    Handloading for 20 inch 1/7 twist .223

    Re: Handloading for 20 inch 1/7 twist .223 I've said it before and I'll say it again. A quality match AR will shoot just about any recognized "book load" well. Well enough to be very competitive in a service rifle match. I gave up tailoring loads to two different service rifles, one with a...

    Help! Need 45ACP Bullseye load

    Re: Help! Need 45ACP Bullseye load I shoot 4.0 gr of bullseye behind a 200gr lead SWC and 3.8 of bullseye behind a 230 fmj which reproduces a good hardball load. Some say bullseye is dirty, and I suppose it is, but it works. VV 310 and 320 are also popular and are seem to be cleaner. I'm...
