And then I was reminded of the conversation at the Last Supper. "Was it I, Lord"?

I'm a squeezer. There I said it. I use a Protektor bag with slick cloth front and back and a solid front rest, no wind age. I like softer bags and shoot better using them. Is that because of my style, my rifle, or I are better suited for this set up? Who cares? It works for me. My point was...

The difference at 100 yards/ meters is 9 yards. That doesn't sound like much if you are shooting a rifle and caliber that has a rather flat trajectory. There in lies the rub. You haven't mentioned what caliber you are shooting. What you need to do is go to a ballistic site that calculates rise...

That looks like an older model but that cut is new to me.

How can you find a record that was shot on bad bags last week to be illegal once the match is over and everyone has gone home? You have 30 minutes to protest. That goes for the competitors, referees, match director, records committee. Also, as I've said so often, there is no sense making rules...

The real me is older than Tooley and Wilbur, but not together. Can I be a curmudgeon? I also think time rids us of the non-shooting troublemakers. They get bored with us. Is that a testimonial of where we're going or what? After this computer was crashed and was worked on, I wasn't able to get...

I'll have to see if I can scan and send the pages regarding the sine wave and the ladder test. I need the refresher course myself anyway.

Glenn "Stonewall" Jackson? I hadn't seen any posts recently by Stonewall Jackson and wondered why. I received a letter from his brother, Peter, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada today. Glenn lost a brief battle with cancer on October 24 after being diagnosed with the dread disease on August 26. Glenn...

I have no problem with using a bronze brush. I'll stay with them.

Oh com mon, Chris. You're going to cause a rush to the analytical scale store by guys who have nothing better to do than weigh charred brass. Well, winter is coming after all. It's Veteran's Day, Not April Fool's Day. On those long Michigan Winter Days I spend a lot of time in the basement...

For me, it's not the same every target.

Hey Todd, I shoot registered group and score. And I'm not sure if that is what you're asking but I'm moving the tuner all the time so, in essence, I'm tuning all the time, somewhat. I have a range at home and feel I'm in tune before I leave home but it never works out that way in this imperfect...

I've heard it said there is a hair's breadth of difference between genius and madness. How long would a race car last on the streets of New York and how would it perform as a taxi there? How would Peyton Manning do in beach volleyball? Can you picture Tony Boyer in a tutu? Charlie Hood as a...

I got the instructions from Momentive Lubricants, from whence I got the HBN. I guess that would be the horse's mouth.

I looked it up. That's in old Mike Schwartz backyard. He was a fine Hunter/Varmint Hunter/Score shooter. Did I mention that he was also a fine machinist?

Are there guys out there tuning at the range with loads they have made at home? Will a tuner take care of tuning at the range?

Ebb Why not start a new thread devoted to the tuning of pre-loaded charges? Oh, I have it. I'll do it.

The change in head space comes when the barrel wasn't tight to begin with as in 10 foot pounds and then 120 foot pounds. MikeinCo has an instrument to measure that Butch.

Where in Indiana is Farmland?

I'm running a load of 111 .30 cal bullets (1/3 of a box of 333) in a vibratory tumbler for 25-30 minutes along with 5 pounds of #6 steel shot. I have my tumbler cleaned and dedicated to tumbling HBN. I first clean each batch of bullets in acetone and toss them in a towel so they are clean. I...
