    Vibratory tumbers - Does yours "walk"?

    Roger that. Will check this out and give it a try after I make sure the running gear under the tumbler isn't compromised. Thanks!

    Vibratory tumbers - Does yours "walk"?

    Aha! Good advice, and something I should have thought of. The tumbler does run with more media on one side than the other, so something must be out of whack. The bowl is cleaned often, so that's not the issue. Will check the springs and other running gear under the bowl and see what I can...

    Vibratory tumbers - Does yours "walk"?

    I have a Lyman vibratory tumbler that I've used for years. It has four little rubber "feet" on the bottom, but no matter what bench I've used it on, it always wants to "walk" all over the bench. I've made all kinds of attempts to get it to stay put, with some success, but it just drives me...

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    Yep, Wisconsin too. The regulation for Wisconsin states as follows: It is illegal to hunt deer with any center-fire rifle less than .22 caliber, any rimfire rifle, or air gun.

    Movie Theater The Last House On The Left (1972)

    Wow, that's a blast from the past! I (barely) remember watching that movie when it was new. Haven't seen it since! LOL

    Spray Painting Rifles

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. That's why I wanted to verify. I guess I'll just have to stick with the gray stock until I can spring for a chassis. Oh well, more time to shoot!!

    Hard time spending $$$ on something you’ve yet to need

    Man, I've never had a problem spending money on stuff I don't need. Just ask my wife about that!! :o

    Spray Painting Rifles

    Is that a Hogue "OverMolded" stock? With sort of a soft rubber feel to it? If so, how is the paint holding up on it? Until I get enough coins together to buy a decent chassis I'm stuck with the "stock" stock on my 700 but would like to paint it. Just wondering if it pays to paint over that...

    Movie Theater Ford VS Ferrari

    My wife and I saw it last night. We enjoyed it. I don't think Matt Damon was the right choice to play Shelby. Not sure who the right choice would have been, but it wasn't Matt. I thought Christian Bale did a credible job of Ken Miles. Leo Bebe and HF II were a bit cartoonish, but not...

    Movie Theater Ford VS Ferrari

    The Ford GT40 is the car that first got me into racing back when I was a wee lad in the late 60s. My uncle was a Ford dealer so he had all kinds of promo material featuring the car. I started following sports car racing right then and there, and have followed it ever since. Even ended up...

    Movie Theater Terminator 23

    Well, as I had promised, I went and saw it last night. I liked it. But then, as I said in my previous post, I'm a Terminator junkie. It was the typical "suspend your reality meter" movie, but then, all Terminator movies are that from the git-go. So with that in mind, I thought it was pretty...

    Thunder Beast bipod

    Anybody actually had eyes on, or even better, hands on the Thunder Beast bipod? I've only seen what's on the web and what's shown up in a couple of magazine articles, but it looks to be a solid setup. Anybody got the 411??

    Movie Theater Midway Movie

    The trailers and movie poster are enough to keep me away from this one. I will just pull out my VHS tape (yes, I still have those, and BETA too, and players to watch them with) and watch the 1976 version. THAT was a very will done movie and worth watching. This new one, not so much. CGI...

    Pick two calibers

    Well, I really don't have any experience with anything other than .308. My dad had a 30-06 back in the day, but I never really used it. Since I'm already set up for .308 I'd stick with that. But if I had to pick a second caliber, and since we're talking bolt action rifles, I'd probably go...
