This years April 1st is closing in fast. I remember as a kid the fun and harmless pranks we played on each other. We all thought nobody else remembered what day it was! Oh the innocence of youth. We laughed at each others lame attempts to be funny. It was innocent times in America.

The whole world's angry these days, not much humor in it. Can't point to any one thing but for me it started with the halfrican. He deeply offended my sense of right and wrong with the stands he made. He was blatantly in your face anti-American and I hated him like no one else. He divided this country right down the middle and it continues to this day.

It'd be nice to see America smile again, to be innocent again.

Just my thoughts.

Hopefully that will be a shot in the arm for those two great old cartridges. I have rifles in both. They are just too good to be allowed to fade away.

I've got a bunch of 25 caliber bullets I bought with a batch of gun stuff and may have some if you want I'll look through them and see what I can find.

Those rifles more than likely will unobtanium for a good while. Great move on Winchester's part keeping the grand old cartridges alive.

How about the 117 gr. Sierra Pro Hunter? Why in Hell was that discontinued? I’ve only got about 250 left.😥

Or, maybe he arose because of that divide which has been present and deepening, esp since the 60’s. He was a measure of that divide including the parallel decline of public education and the entrenchment of secularism in academics. Obama was a symptom of an already entrenched disease. Of course, he advanced it.

All of these produced enough of an ignorant, deluded electorate to put him in office. And now AOC, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and other anti-American hustlers.

Much, much more serious than COVID-19.

I guess they live in an alternate United States than the deplorables and theirs is untouchable. Ruining ours sure doesn't seem to give them much pause.

How about a short all copper type 0.257 bullet for use in the .25-20 so I can hunt with mine in Cali, since we're talking April Fool's Day wishes? Maybe something in the 55-60 gr range, about as long as a typical 86 gr as used in that cartridge. I bet I could get some good velocity out of it, and even more in the .256 Win Mags.

Even in the revolver those things would be moving right along.

Indeed.
