    ppc brass prep??

    I do that; maybe that's why I'm not a top-of-the-list shooter. :confused:

    30br question

    Thanks, and I've got two questions. First, what's "magic" about shortening by "about .100" v., say, .01? Second, how much short of chamber length do you suggest that the brass be trimmed?

    30br question

    Al, can you give those of us who are not gunsmith-types step-by-step instructions on how to determine the length of our chamber? (Such a post might be worthy of a new thread.)

    Shooting-Related, Autobiographical Snippets

    I had a very dear friend (Don) who lived in MT; he, his son, and DIL loved to hunt out there (and other places also). They usually hunted on public land, and usually brought home the “bacon” — his son was/is a VERY good hunter. Oftentimes, Don would send pictures of their hunts to me; that...

    Tony, how could you possibly think that post might be inappropriate for this thread? BTW, thanks for sharing. :)

    This thread has been up two weeks and only seven other members have shared a shooting-related snippet? Let’s hear from others; in the meantime, I'll post another of my shooting-related snippets. Once when my daughter came to visit, she and I went quail “hunting” at a friend’s place that he...

    Reflections on the 2024 Shamrock Shoot

    An idea for helping revive this forum. Of the approximate 70 shooters at this year's Shamrock, would some be willing to post a short write-up here of some of your experiences surrounding that shoot? I suspect many of us who did not attend might be interested in some of the following: 1. Your...

    Reflections on the 2024 Cactus Classic Shoot

    This thread has been up over a week and not one response? Come on guys, your responses might help promote far-away matches, and even if they don't they will certainly "entertain" other shooters. :)

    Mr. Cootrp3, what a nice "dissertation" you wrote; thanks for posting — and for the Google recommendation. I can only imagine the pride you feel for your son. BTW, I hope Norie is doing well.

    I have a friend who was the VA State Champion skeet shooter at one time. Also, I was at a skeet range once and saw a guy shooting skeet with his gun held at hip level, and he was hitting those little "birds" — at least that's how I remember it. BTW, I saw that a child of yours is/was a world...

    we need a humor forum.....until then

    I suspect none of us need any such grief. Furthermore, regardless of whether something's true, some things don't seem appropriate for public broadcast.

    Regardless of the favorable reaction to post # 41 at https://benchrest.com/forum/threads/anyone-interested-in-buying-benchrest-com.105910/page-3#post-859570, which included a statement about, "limiting the post content to gun-related stuff (as suggested by the subtitle beneath the name of each...

    This thread has been up a week and only three guys have posted in response? Let's hear from others; in the meantime, I'll post another of my shooting-related snippets. When my son was about ten years old, he seemed interested in shooting and hunting. I bought him a camo outfit and a .22 RF...

    920 miles to B'ham? Would driving through Atl (rather than B'ham) have been closer to get to the Shamrock?

    Sometime in my mid-20s, a friend invited me to go deer hunting (my first deer hunt) at his hunting club. I didn’t have a centerfire rifle so I borrowed my FIL’s old, sporterized, military-type, bolt-action rifle (had to pull a knob on the back of the bolt to cock it) with a peep sight, chambered...
