I’ll gladly thin the herd, and go to shooting factory ammo to accommodate those things. None of them existed for me 10 years.... or really even 5 years ago.


Yep, sure ain't like when we were kids is it? Busy busy when both parents are working full time... It'll get better when one of your kids gets their drivers license!!!! 😂


Better, maybe, but then grandkids come along. Spent this last weekend helping a Daughter pack up to move, will help her next weekend unloading. I travel almost every week and haven't had a free weekend in longer than I can recall. Helping the kids with their home improvements, various activities with the grandkids, no end in sight until mid-August. At least then my wife and I are planning some stuff for us - a vacation to SW Colorado (Alpine loop on ATVs), a week-plus fishing in Canada in September, Wyoming antelope hunting on October (a family affair, grandkids included) and two weeks elk hunting in November.

May not get to shoot as often as I would like but the guns will keep.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
