    Pump Rifle

    Brother in law had a 760 in 30-06. We never checked the accuracy of it but every year you could count on a number of deer and a elk in the freezer. It also had open sights and if the animal was within 200 yards it was dead. I about fell over when he showed up one year with a bolt action and a...

    Have you ever known a congenital liar?

    I once had a coworker who you could tell instantly that he was lying, he was talking. Our company had a very liberal death in the family time off policy. We added it up once and figured that he had at least 12 sets of grandparents. Then with all the on the job experience that he said he had he...

    Strange GB scam

    I once had a person from my health insurance company call to verify some information, her first question was for me to verify my SS number. When I told her that I wasn't going to give it or any other personal information over the phone to someone who called me she just hesitated a bit and then...

    Strange GB scam

    I make it a policy to never give any information to someone that I don't know who calls me. I have received a couple calls like this and I just tell them that I'll call them back at a listed number if they will give me their name and extension number. At that time they usually just hang up on me.

    Trying to understand land cruiser import situation

    A lot is going to depend on where you live. A number of localities have made it legal to drive a ATV on the roads providing that they have a few safety items. Other areas you can drive them from your home to a local riding area. Some areas have licenses for them that are required if you are...

    A few tips for posting I have learned via school of hard knocks

    A big problem with allowing posters to edit post is when they add to or remove information from their post. Just about all forums that I am on that don't have a time limit on editing end up a mess when posters add or delete information.

    Actually not a steam iron but a coal or ember iron. You placed hot coals or embers into it to heat the base.

    Hornady Brass quality? What is your favorite brass for safari calibers?

    Right now it is still availability. Hornady is one that is always on the shelf. I've seen some Whinchester online, and Starline is becoming more common. I found a great deal on Starline a few weeks ago when I was up in Chyanene Wyoming for 44 mag brass.

    A pair of 44 Automags with consecutive serial numbers with a 357 Automag barrel for each one along with loading dies. They were listed for around $1500, this was the late 70's.

    Politics

    The big problem is if people don't change their lifestyle those drugs will never be effective. When my brother in law had his one knee replaced I would take him to his physical therapy. I started just watching the people walk through the doors for the office that his therapist was located in...
