    Maggie’s ARROGANT BASTARD

    Anyone ever try Arrogant Bastard Ale? Picked it up at the beer distributor a few minutes ago ( 48 bucks for 12/22oz bottles!). Unfortunately it was a warm case- so it's sitting in the fridge and I have a few hours of wonder. Just wondering if anyone on here has tried it/ what their impression...

    Forgot how stupid people are.

    Decided to go to the local game land that has a rifle range on it instead of the club I belong to (NHRPC) today... Big mistake. I only went to the game land because its 15 mins vs an hour, and I was only going to sight in a rifle and leave, so it made more sense to go to the game lands. I arrive...

    Same Headstamp... Different Brass?

    After a quick wash after sizing, I noticed something I've never noticed before. Notice every other casing has a tarnish to the brass. Looking at the bottom, they are all Lake City 2011 manufacture, however the shiny casings have circular depressions between LC, 11, and the Nato...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Carry Ammo, How often do you replace with fresh?

    Got to thinking- how often do you guys replace your carry ammo with new? Personally I go thru ~100 rounds a year. First of every month the clip in the gun (7 rounds) and the chambered round (8 total) get replaced with new out of box, ammo that was in the clip in the gun now goes to the reload...

    Gun Show StorieS

    Well we've all read and heard stupid at gun shops, ranges, etc. I just got back from a local gun show and heard/saw a few things thought I'd share and see what you guys have heard at shows. First (this was actually 2 or 3 shows ago), while looking over a large ammo display, heard a VENDOR...

    SMK vs AMAX... new scale tests.

    So I just got a new digital scale today, along with a box of 175g SMK's to try out (always used 168g AMAX prior). Decided to do a "quality control" test on bullets. Some facts -Scale was RCBS Charge master 1500 in case anyone is curious. -Randomly (approx every 5-10 bullets) checked...

    Gunsmithing Reducing Locking Time

    Wondering if any of you guys have played around with higher rated springs and a lighter weight firing pin to reduce the locking time. If anyone has- what improvements have you seen- if any? In theory it sounds like a good idea- but... we don't shoot in "theory".

    F T/R Competition F Class Classifications

    Quick question regarding classifications- I understand that it requires a minimum of 240 rounds recorded to Reclassify- however does it also take 240 rounds to classify your first time? Or do you get classified after your first competition.

    Advanced Marksmanship Alternative to Dot Drill?

    Alright- I was reloading tonight and thinking "I need more dot drill targets" when I looked over at my dart board and thought "What if I created a target that was similar to a dart board (Possibly only 10 sections instead of 20)" Wanted to get opinions before I go and spend the next two hours...
