A big plus on Bob Seger.

I reread this and realized calling myself a geek was incorrect. In my younger days a geek was someone who wasn't with the program and that is how I feel about myself regarding computers and my pc. When I started on this site I had no clue when it came to typing, I drafted my reports in pencil...

My father was in the Minnesota National Guard and was called up when the war broke out. The company consisted of various prime movers for towing artillery and at one point were assigned to a British unit headed towards Antwerp. Other than seeing an American plane falling out of the sky he had...

I'm still a geek. I hate it when I re-boot and lose stuff. I'm 84 years old and patience isn't one of my virtues but I'm still walking and get to share afew things on line so life is good. Mort

Bummer

Thank you. My son has the 66 and drives it around. He recently had someone color sand and detail it and I got to see it when we recently attended our youngest grandson's graduation from college. The car looks super and really pops. I don't remember seeing your 63 but it looks really nice. Do...

Had an issue with my PC and lost all my car photos so i have to send my slides in to get them processed again. Not going to happen right now but I will post pictures of my split window and the 66. Mort how dis this get down here?

Stevie Ray Vaughn was great...left us to early in life.

Tim, there were times I wasn't packing paper but if you found yourself in the right area you could wipe your butt with Turkey Mullen (sp). This weed had broad soft leaves that would do the job....just so you know. Mort

Don't know what information you have received regarding loads for the 222. My favorite reloading manual covers the 222 and that cartridge only and makes it real easy comparing loads. I have had mine for quite sometime but I think the info is updated. Check Loadbooks ,com. Mort

Walmart is giving out free turkeys this year to anyone who can outrun security.

I found both IMR and Hodgdon to be a little crunchy at times so I use a powder trickle when testing these two. The H4198 shoots a little better on paper but there is really no difference when shooting Idaho Whistle Pigs. Mort

I know I'm a little late here and for that I owe you all an apology. It turned out I had good luck with the above gunsmith provided by Dundee. The price only was $10 and $5 for shipping....well worth it for me. Some real good folks here and thank you. Mort

Thanks Al, I had tried all the sites that have Remington parts but no luck. We have an Ace Hardware here in town.

Good advice Tim. I have a similar issue with my Rem, 722/ 222 but in my case I lost the small coil spring that fits into the upper left side of the receiver. That little spring activates the bolt block. I still shoot whistle pigs on a friends ranch but have to keep it level or the bolt falls...
