    "Obsolete" items that you still use

    I guess I should feel old, but I don't. I shoot shotguns from 80-100+ years old with lots of drop at comb and heel. I use tin lined copper pans, which I have learned to re-tin myself. I have some split cane fly rods. I use single stage loaders with balance scales. I regularly use ancient wood...

    Have you ever known a congenital liar?

    Regarding the silent ones, and I hesitate to post this, I met one the hard way. I was suckered into going to visit "O.C." by a grandmother who wanted to find her runaway grand daughter. O.C. ran his own dump for the town of Axtell, and NOBODY EVER went out to talk to him, cite him, investigate...

    Robert Tilton had to leave Texas in a hurry for that reason...don't know how long Fla. decided to put up with him.

    Africa's Most Dangerous Game...

    SHOULD have used a .22 mag! The real danger is having guineas run you till you have a heart attack chasing them....and always just out of shotgun range.

    Just don't bang around and warp your wheel too much. They work until they don't.

    Politics

    You two are messing things up--there are only 100 fruitcakes world wide....they just keep getting re-gifted over and over. When you guys actually eat one, that's two less in circulation. Nobody else would eat that stuff....

    Heym Deluxe 88B – Matched 470 NE & 375 H&H Barrel Sets – Fully Outfitted, Regulated, and Safari-Ready

    If it were a matched pair, I'd be all over it..... Kidding of course. That is a swell set up--so nice in fact that it must pain you to sell it at all. Thanks for all the disclosure, gracing us with pictures, and GLWS!

    Leather scope case

    I got a leather one on Ebay shipped out of India for about $40 plus shipping. It is not lined, but thick enough leather, with a buckle and strap to adjust slightly for length. I'm very happy with it and may order another in the next little while since you brought it to my attention. Good luck.

    Strictly 250GR for Cape Buffalo?

    Sectional density increases with mono metal bullets due to lighter weight/longer length for weight. They retain mass in most cases.

    Single Shot Saturday - Show us your Single Shots!

    Agree with your assessment, and are those original case colors? If so, then it is a time capsule...amazing!

    Have you ever known a congenital liar?

    Every gambler is a liar--to themselves first and foremost.
