I would nominate the inventor of the Thermacell for a Nobel prize.

Just about every electric utility has a trading floor and some have multiple trading floors. Because of electronic trading, trading floors are distributed all over the country. For example the Philadelphia Stock Exchange is the major trading venue for derivatives.

6.8 Western. It is a 270 WSM tweaked to take higher BC bullets. You might have a problem with 270 WSM ammo availability in the future. It never caught on. The 270 WBY is also one if the least popular WBY calibers.

Thanks. I was already aware of that. Flying out of Trenton with a firearm is even worse. Nobody had any clue about the rules. One person told me it had to be in a locked case inside my luggage. That is fine for pistols but difficult with a rifle. Good thing I went 3 hours early.

I have been wearing wool socks with synthetic liners for 50 years. The wool socks can be worn multiple days and the synthetic liners can be rinsed out at night and will be dry by morning. Clothes will be washed on safari but my wife and I do a lot of hiking and there is no washing service.

Thanks. I am in Princeton, a little less than an hour from EWR.

There are several Customs and Border patrol offices in or around Newark. One in Terminal B at the airport, another in Elizabeth and one in Morristown. and another in Jersey City. Which one should I use for getting a 4457 signed? Thanks

I also have a Beretta 626E but mine has a 26 inch barrel and Beretta Mobil chokes. I bought it for upland hunting but found out that I do better with it at skeet and sporting clays than with my Beretta 694. We have some side by side matches around here where most of the competitors are using...

What is this “too many” thing of which you speak??

Good luck with your hunt in Spain. Last year my wife and I walked the Camino de Santiago where we stayed in a hotel that had massive roe deer racks in the dining room. I hope you get one that big. It also gave me an itch to go after one myself.

I have a Mark X that looks very similar except that it says Mark X on the receiver instead of Whitworth. It only says Whitworth on the recoil pad. It has the same case hardened grip cap and a three leaf rear sight. The wood looks very similar as does the cheek piece.

That is much nicer wood than most Tikkas. I have a wood stocked Tikka that looks like stained birch.

Blackhorn 209 does not exchange exactly with black powder. 100 grains of FFG is equivalent to 82 grains of Blackhorn, which is why many of us Blackhorn users weigh charges rather than use a volume measurement. Blackhorn also produces a lot less smoke than Black Powder and cleans up much easier...
