Man, I just back from the farm where I spent a very enjoyable day staying out of my wifes' hair with my grandson. We borrowed my FIL's .22 and went on a "walkabout". I ended up shooting a woodpecker and two rabbits, we saw some fresh hog sign, refilled the deer feeder, and just had a great day in general. Hope you guys had a good one as well.

I've seen several posts lately from (mostly) new members, who seem to have a deep seated urge to downtalk everyone else's choice of guns, ammo, clothing, optics, etc... WTF?

I'm not a big Remington fan, as such, I don't frequent the Remington forum and proceed to tell everyone that Remington makes crap unfit to grace my hands.

Welp folks, I think I'm in over my head! My grandson got sick night before last, threw up once, went to bed, and has been fine ever since.

As most of you know, I've been injured, partially healed, moved , changed jobs, and had to put my grip business on hold for an unknown time period. We still haven't gotten "moved in" ie: unpacked\organized in our new place, and tonight we went shopping for a new mattress and a few odds and ends.
As large and important as a mattress purchase is, all night I've just been sort of "drifting"-I can't seem to focus on the task at hand and I really don't care. I just feel like...

After another rough day @ work, I came home and promptly bought a set of .257 Roberts reloading dies on eBay. This wouldn't normally be a problem BUT, it's not the only set I've bought recently for a caliber I don't currently own! My plan is to use these as an excuse to buy guns to match. My current inventory on dies with no matching guns is currently: RCBS-.243 Win. and .45 ACP (both steel and carbide), Pacific-6.5x55 and .257 Roberts, Redding-7mm-08, Texan-.25-06, Herters-.30-06, and I can't remember...
