    Gone fishin'.........

    Did you catch them in the bay? What happens if you go over the line into Canada? Looks like you had a good day fishing. Any day fishing is a great day 👍

    I’m surrounded

    Most went just south from us. Power out several times for most of the night and again this morning. Large pine limb down in the driveway but no other damage. 70mph winds reported

    I’m surrounded

    By thunderstorms and tornado warnings. Got a lot of bad weather going on right now with two tornadoes suspected with one on the ground south of me. 70 mile an hour winds, but I'm kind of where the guy is which is not quite the bad spot.

    BP loads

    What about after shooting cleanup. Is there any special solvent or other materials needed to thoroughly clean a standard cartridge revolver when using black powder?

    Choose your poison

    When considering the question asked, it didn’t give a reason for the singularity of a single caliber. So my choice of the 45 colt is because I learned to shoot with one and is still the caliber I enjoy the most.

    Sports can be funny...

    Does the time that we were playing frisbee count where I was thrown the frisbee and turned around to run to make ithe famous over the shoulder catch and ended up dead centering the stacked headlights on a 1967 Cadillac right between the legs. I walked around with blue balls for a week.

    How do you account for the resurgence in popularity of revolvers and lever action rifles?

    I would say the popularity of some of the newer series like Yellowstone deadwood and I can't The names of the others right now. The younger grow older they begin to realize the fun of shooting revolvers and rifles, especially the lever gun and as income grows, they begin to accumulate more...
