Never could warm up to Cope. When I had a habit I usually dipped Grizzly Straight.

Cope and Skoal are like $8-$10 a tin in this [bleep] state. The Grizz was half that.

A lady jogging out here in yuppieville with her dog thought it wise to try and get between her border collie and a sow blackie.

Of course the dog was fine but she got chewed on. She was "saving her dog".

I'd like to think if it cost that much I'd quit. But alas, I know better. Still, $5 for Cope hurts bad enough.

I always enjoyed chewing but was addicted to smokes.

Chew got me off the smokes and then quitting the chew was easy enough.

Sometimes I think about getting a can of Grizz or a pouch of Taylors Pride, then figure [bleep] it, ain't worth it to start up again.

I always wondered if The Old Man would have paid 5 bucks for a pack of smokes....probably...fell over dead with one burning between his fingers.

I recall being in NYC for one of the funerals in 2001 and being half ripped and running into a store in Manhattan for a pack of smokes...7 bucks...[bleep] big tax in the city back then for smokes....didn't even hesitate....easier to get off smack than nicotine and that's no joke!

That may be the problem. I had that problem w/ my Forester dies for 7mm-08 also. I screwed the die in deeper until the gap on the lock ring lines up with the vent and tightened the lock ring down. The die can vent through the gap in the lock ring even when its tightened down.

Also double check that the expander ball is adjusted so that the vent is positioned even with the lower half of the expander ball as shown in the set up diagram.

I quit the 'Hagen back in 2009. A can and a half a day is the cigarette equivalent of being a 9 pack a day smoker as far as the amount of niccoteen that you put in your system goes. That explained why once in a while, my heart would skip a beat laugh

I was a total SLAVE to those gold colored lids, and I still slobber when I catch a whiff of a fresh can.
