You can shoot clays with the 45 rifle! off topic, but interesting little thing. Was fooling with a marlin lever in .41mag. It has the cross bolt safety. it will not allow you to load through the gate ammo unless you have the cross bolt on safe. Wierd. lawyers are a wonderful thing, you have the cross bolt safety, the little button under the lever, a half cock hammer, and you might accidently load the gun without the safety being on?

There is a plan in the back of my evil conspiracy little mind. Fly to San Diego for work then since I am the president of the company I will do my best to convince the vice president we need to make a trip to AZ to chat with a few contractors about expanding into AZ. Since the trip could be dangerous we would both have to carry 1911s and maybe bring a rifle too. Five to six our drive each way in the company truck. The VP likes to shoot to and it great company.

Looks like it worked. There may be two of us there. The VP sounds like he took the bait.

I bought an eight pound keg of TAC a few days ago so I'll bring a pound with me.
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

OK, I have a 358 Win just waiting for some loading and I understand TCA is the way to go. I am not saying it is hard to ge but in all my searching I have never seen a can.

45 colt, about the only gun I would like to add, if I do it'll be both revolver and carbine.
Granddaughter looks like she will be left handed, at least writing, she throws with her right. Have to wait to see which eye is dominate before getting her a 22.

Kent It is still a big if bit if we get to come you will meet my baby of the six. He shoots lefty but writes with either hand. When he was learning to be an estimator the other estimators came to the boss and said he had to find Rob somewhere else to work. He did take-offs with both a pen and a high liner in each hand and went back and forth making notes with one hand while using the high liner and the pen in the other hand then he would switch. It gave then headaches to watch him.

I posted this elsewhere but thought you guys might get a kick out of it. I finally got a chance to shoot beyond 100 yards this winter. Jeff (Talus) and I went out and shot to 1000 yards; in the rain no less! This steel plate was a 5 shot group at 1000 or 800- I forget which. First shot was the one in the middle- with a cold bore even! I should have stopped there. No, I won't be shooting steel with it at Tonto- I'm just going to watch! [img:left] [/img]

Nice post, Dennis. That's quite a first dent for 800/1000 - what was the bullet design and MV? Or is that steel from a Ford?

Not looking good for me guys. Turkish customs hosed me last week (changed the rules, they're famous for this) and its looking like i'm not going to be able to fly out of here on the 4th.
Katie got back to the states successfully from Kuwait today, but she's PISSED that I'm not going to make it back this week.
Its too bad, cause I REALLLLLYYYYYY want to shoot some guns.
