    Salvation from biking and other photos

    I think bicycling has saved me. I find myself in my mid-60's in close to the best cardiovascular shape of my life as opposed to the rapidly degenerating (and degenerated) state I was in several years ago. I weighed over 300 pounds and have been 100 pounds down from that for 3 years. The first...

    Gunshow Bans Guns

    Hard to believe that so many people can not understand clearing a weapon. I've been nervous at gun shows watching people in the parking lot, actions closed, just walking around with no thought at all. At my gun club a while back as I was leaving the line, a guy pulled a rifle from a soft case...

    The Right To Bear Arms

    I'd ask you how it feels to be totally out of step with most of the rest of the country but I already know. The country of Barak Obama is actively hostile to virtually all of the values that we grew up with.

    Interesting gun/crime statistics

    Very well done but redundant. It has long been apparent that the real agenda behind gun control has nothing to do with crime reduction.

    Define "Crazy"

    I hear you guys in your attempts to state what is crazy. Problem being that guns are going to be denied to people defined as "crazy" by political definitions and with the extreme anitgunners being in power as they are now, I suspect that the definition sweep will encompass a lot more people than...

    Bausch & Lomb 8-32 Balvar scope

    I've got a couple of B&L 6x24 Elite 4200 scopes that seem to be as good optically and in repeatability as any of the very high dollar newer scopes that I have.

    Testing the attachment feature

    It really isn't that big a deal to just link a picture from any number of free web sites that offer photo storage. That's an advantage to the site too since the images aren't stored on the site's servers. I like the photo management here, don't see that feature elsewhere.

    Chargemaster Test

    Barely over 0.1 grain extreme spread, I could live with that. That's my scales accuracy limit anyway.

    A modern unsporting rifle?

    !00% accurate? Wonder what that means. I hope to finish my life without ever owning a scope with a USB port. On 2nd thought, a video camera in the scope showing me just totally blowing a shot might be pretty cool!

    Counterfeit Leupold Scopes

    Big surprise there. I play some in the coin, bullion, numismatic fields and the increasingly perfect Chinese counterfeits just flooding the market have a bunch of people freaked out. If the Chinese will include poison in exported pet food because it increases their profit margin by a couple of...

    excecutive orders CANNOT infringe on CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS

    Obama and the dems use an older governing philosophy than the Constitution: Might Makes Right They will do anything they can get away with and just who among the current DC governing elite is going to stop them? Boehner?

    Mandatory Superfeet use

    Our benches at Riverbend have been there for decades and there have been a hundreds of matches there + all the practice. If the "banged up" benches have been anything past a very occasional inconvenience, I never heard it.

    Obama and Executive order

    This clearly illustrates, for anyone who cares to look, the extraordinarily blatant hypocrisy of the democrats and their howls of rage at the "transgressions" against the constitution and liberty by George Bush. They are perfectly happy with a dictator as long as it is their dictator. If the...

    How about this Wilbur, was it true?

    Thanks for posting that, after reading the Wikipedia entry and watching the youtube, I feel a little better for some reason.

    Average BR shooters age

    Off the top of my head, I'd say that the mean age (half younger & half older) would be well into the 50's. And there's no question people in their 70's handily outnumber those in their 30's. I think benchrest and the qualities necessary to enjoy and do well in it are out of tune with this...

    How is the panic over the gun banners effecting prices?

    I think a lot of people here are mistaking the way they act with people in their inner circles for the workings of a marketplace. If a good friend or family (or even a club member with whom I'm on good terms) were in dire need of a few hundred or a thousand primers, I wouldn't sell it to them...

    If you thought global warming was alarming...

    Have you heard the one about our observable universe being a 3 dimensional (+ time) holographic projection on a 5 dimensional brane? ("brane" as in membrane, not brain) Somehow I suspect that we haven't gotten to the bottom of this yet and very possibly aren't capable of it. (anything within a...

    How is the panic over the gun banners effecting prices?

    I don't understand this anti "profiteering" thing. If you sell your house for a profit? I have some silver purchased about 10 years ago; anyone here care to explain just why it would be immoral to not sell it to you for the $4 an ounce that I paid? Also, I think it would be informative for the...
