The three USA teams finished in the top three positions this week in New Zealand. The winning team's aggregate was a shade under 0.3" for the week. That's some serious shooting.

Okayfine - the girlfriend type has several daughters. The oldest is almost 17, and has always been a good student. Lately she's expressed apathy toward "boring" subjects, etc., and has also started dating a fellow who is a relative loser (all I know is that he has been in a few minor scrapes in...

What if the anthrax that's been sent to folks like Daschle and Brokaw was homegrown? By some right-wing crazy?

Okay - Now how many of you guys have been a bit more patriotic, up front about your beliefs, etc., since 9/11? I mean, prior to 9/11, if you had a flag up, announced that you were a patriot, etc., you were likely to have your neighbors call the cops and suggest that you were the next McVeigh...

Guys, this has been sorta festering... ===== Hey - I told you so. Yeah, all you folks who are out there, buying up the next three years' supply of July 4th flags - I'm talking to you. You're the same folks who, for the past few years, have been dumping all over everything this country does...

One of my coworkers told us in a meeting today that a "relative's friend of a friend" told her that she'd been dating an Afghani for the past year. On 9/10, he stood her up, and when she went by his place, it was empty, except for a note telling her that he was sorry, but he had to be away, and...

Okay - Went this past weekend. Didn't have a lot of time, but went anyway. Got to the area around 2:00 p.m., and putted over to the Cav Store, to see if they were running a warehouse sale. Was quite disappointed in that they weren't. Their selection was also sorta down... I needed a field...

Is there a site that will tell me the exact time for sunset here in St. Louis? Specifically for last night? Not in trouble, but got rousted from a park with a "half hour after sunset" curfew, and I think the guy was pushing it...

I bought a "Neuwler" or some such (formerly made in either Indiana or Illinois) tool last week. It is set up for priming the 6BR. With the proper shellholder, it would work for the 6PPC - If anyone knows where I can locate one, I'd appreciate it. Also posted this in handloading, but I think...

At a benchrest event this past weekend, one of the shooters cleared a bore obstruction by running a cleaning rod down the barrel from the muzzle. He then did something else, and obviously forgot that he had the rod still in the bore. He inserted a cartridge, fired it, and the rifle vented gas...

Guys, this is NOT off topic... Trust me... I want to build a neckturning driver. I'll show y'all some pics later... Does any of the multitudinous multitudes in this place know if there is a readily available, relatively inexpensive way to do the following? I want to put a 3-jaw "drill type"...

Going to a benchrest workshop up in Michigan, and I'll have to drive through Chicago to get there. My truck is painted camo, and has at least 25-30 RKBA-oriented bumper stickers on the shell. Rifle will be in a locked case in the bed, with the bolt in a separate container. Can I expect much...

This ain't off topic. I've spent too dang much on this cra... er... highly specialized precision loading equipment for it to get all soaked again... Saw a cool tent, with an internal "geodisic" type frame at the St. Louis Air Show this past weekend. The recruiter who was manning the display...

As of yesterday, I weigh 279. That's down from 380 on January 5. I'm now more agile, the BP meds are outta here, my cholesterol is at the "high normal" area, and I feel better than I have in 10 years... It's gonna take a bit more to fit in an "off the shelf" highpower shooting jacket, but now at...

Today I wore a pair of forest green BDUs and an old pair of Altama "tactical" (they actually say that!) boots to work. I work in an office... I just happen to like BDUs and boots... So, how many other folks have been infected by the insidious creeping mall ninja virus?

The NBRSA is sponsoring a weekend long clinic at Holton, MI the 2nd weekend in September. e-mail me if you're interested. Cost is $200.

Need advice... Okay - I'm down to 285, from 380... when I hit 100 down, it's time for a new toy... I'm trying to decide... 1. Savage 12BVSS-S in .223 2. Barrels to fit an existing Savage, in 6BR (slow twist) and 6/284 (fast twist) 3. A 6/284 barrel for my Stolle Panda BR rifle 4. A...

Does anyone have any tips or tricks? It's a laminate stock, and I wanna get the sucker as heavy as possible. External weights are also an option...

Someone just e-mailed this to me... ========================= A Male Driver's Observation: I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in front of a pickup truck causing him to have to drive onto the shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the...
