Ahhh!.....that makes more sense to me now. I don't know why that in another thread you posted here with photos, that I thought you mentioned you were using the likes of a simpler "Power Shot" or "Cool-Pix" style camera. You are using top of the line stuff with that A850....which makes much more...

Tom, Those are some really vivid shots! I particularly like the choppy waters, strange vessels, and Cindarella photos.......in that order. The Coke Machine shot is really nice too, but reminds me more of the style of a commercial photo that is more commonly sold on those framed 3'x2' posters...

thanks. I literally have to use a magnifying glass in conjunction with my reading glasses to read the tiny Mitutoyo tick-marks. Because of this, I have pretty much retired this caliper to mainly occassional double checking duties. I also find the Mitutoyo is great for double checking which...

I don't use calipers for work, so pardon if this question exposes my ignorance; For over 25 years I've been using a Mitutoyo 6" dial caliper for reloading. In recent years, I've purchased a couple of Harbor freight $10 dial calipers as inexpensive addtional spares. What puzzles me when...

Talk about a well prepared gal !! For guys into the bar scene; When no after a drink or two can really mean no! LOL

Jim is at the zoo one day standing outside of the gorilla exhibit. Jim sneezes and notices the big ape mimic the same motion. Jim then looks at his watch, and notices the gorilla glance at his own hairy wrist too as if also reading a wrist watch. Jim is amused by this behavior and starts to do a...

Well, I guess there will surely now be interuptions in their powder supply. But the way things have been throughout 2013 anyway, perhaps a lot of us would not notice much change anyway. I'm still trying to get over the Hornady bullet suspensions.

Been there. Done that. Still doing it. Man, getting old is the s_its, aint it.

lmaorotf ......that's a good one.

Thanks guys for the input. I have NEVER suffered a loss or damage yet, but had always wondered who ends up eating the $48 shipping. I see that it is more or less arbitrary and some careful planning and common sense goes a long way!! If anybody out there that doesn't do much shipping but...

You've answered my question that they will not refund the shipping. If you think about it, that's really an injustice to do to John Q. Public; They lose your rifle, it never gets delivered to it's destination.......... and yet they refuse to refund your cost for the shipping service that they...

When claiming a loss for a package, will USPS refund any or all of your cost for shipping charges? For an example; Let's say you ship a rifle worth $900, and let's say that you pay them $68 for shipping and insurance coverage. Of that $68, $48 is the shipping and $20 of that is insurance...

Jim, I don't think any of your family in previous generations witnessed a 48% illigitamcy rate amongst whites, 61% amongst hispanics, or 83% amongst blacks, nor did they become a minority in their own nation. Neither did half of your family's fellow citizens collect welfare, food stamps, or...

Jerry, A two party system is simply the way it is, like it or not. You either vote Replublican or Democrat. If you personally vote Democrat, there is nothing worth discussing or debating with you, as you and I would have such a diverse and opposite core of beliefs. I no longer have the...

Worry less about one man like Obama and the threat of red-buttons out there, and more about the immediate terminal condition of this country and the multiple generations of retards that keep electing and enabling such politicians and their policies. Obama is nothing more then the result of just...

Among other things, this is exactly what has happened to this nation. As a Republican you can't out-do that at the polls by offering to give away more and buy votes, because then you are simply transforming yourself into a Democrat. The Republicans will never be able to overcome this in National...

It doesn't work that way in the real world at my reloading bench with both my 223 and 308 cases. (which I currently do the most shooting with.) To get the bullet to seat smoothly and uniformly, the case neck diameter must be left large enough so that the bullets will often grip way too loose. So...

Before you choose a cartidge, compare a 6BR or 6x47L sized case firing a 6mm bullet..... VS..... a 22-250 or 22x47L sized case zeroed at 400 yards firing the 75Amax. Be sure to look at drop, windage, and energy at 300-600 yards. When I did that, I dropped the 6mm bullet as a choice. We are...

I think seeing the downrange acrobatics is an important aspect of what PD shooting should include. I have a 17pound braked 22x47L that fires 75Amax at 3,400FPS and I can spot the hits as close as 100 yards........never mind a 30lb rifle. Geees with 30lbs and a brake you can sure choose a lot of...

Not sure I see the connection between brass and wine. (?) My culinary skills are limited, but I do know enough of the basics to stay out of trouble in the kitchen.... A lesson I learned early on; He who cooks carrots and pees in the same pot is unsanitary.
