for those shooting rim fire speed events... with the production lines running WFO, be mindful of squib loading with .22lr... I had my first ever squib round stuck in the barrel... luckily, I had a couple of under powered loads earlier that I could watch curve into the Steel Challenge targets at a practice session Friday... typical competition mind set is to clear a malfunction as quickly as possible and continue shooting...not a good idea if the bolt doesn't re-cock the hammer... regards Les

Great nations rise and fall.

Where are we now??????

We are in the 3.50 range, in March it was <$2.

It is insane that I went thru all the hoops to be able to buy fuel whole sale from the refinery , a 140k fuel truck and a guy to drive it...I am saving money a very significant  amount of money.  All this is based off of a 20% loss in resale.  When its sold it will have maybe 2k miles on it.  So I doubt I will take even that much of a hit.

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison
