Yep. Many businesses succeed due to having grasped such concepts, or fail because they didn't.

1. If the cat belongs to a neighbor, using a live-trap and keeping kitty out of sight in the tool-shed for a couple days, while they worry, then 'finding' the kitty in the trap you set to protect your chickens or wild birds, and returning it to them, usually works. They'll usually keep it inside aft...

Unfortunately, about 30% of the population around here is of the 'statist' type, and would just LOVE those kinds of restrictions to be enacted here in the U.S., and another 60% are too 'involved' in televised sports, trips to the shopping mall, or Entertainment Tonight, to have a clue what it is all...

Sad to see that kind of thing. Definitely NOT typical of the Mormon folks I've been around all my life. A few bad apples everywhere I suppose.

Any one of a dozen stores within a 30 minute drive will have a Mossberg 500 pump 12 gauge for around $200 or so. Fill out the federal " it's-not- really -registration " form, and take it home right now, unless your telephone background-check fails. Lots of 'liberals' really HATE Indiana. ....

It's always fun when there's deep snow, and the accipter swoops in, because the instant before it happens, most of the prey-birds will zoom off the feeder and bury themselves in the snow. First time I saw it took me by surprise, until a second later, the accipter made a strafing run and managed to s...

Don't forget the option of "1x" sights of the holographic or even red-dot type; they can be shot with both eyes open, are super-fast to use, and for those who are having to get away from iron sights due to less visual depth-of-field as they get older, the hologrphic sights 'project' the do...

When I went back to see about the saddle after his funeral his son had traded it for a couple of cases of beer. that just makes me ill. :cry: Same here. How is it that sometimes such decent parents turn out pretty junky offspring? I had a patient the other day tell me her grown-up-age daughter was ...

Glad you got a parts-source. Although I know ANY sight could be ruined with the right accident, one reason I relegate tang sights to the 'target shooting gun' role is that fragility. Much harder to destroy a Williams FP (or Lyman, or other brand) receiver sight. The most 'indestructable' sights I've...

I always disliked guns that wouldn't allow the action to be opened and closed with the safety ON the whole time.

Perhaps Remington would have a few less lawyer bills if they had designed their 700's to allow the chamber to be cleared with the safety still on.

In the meantime if possible to take some pictures it might help.

If all else fails, a hand-scrawled diagram using the "paint" program, or scanned in with a scanner, could help.

Startled me.

I figured .30-30 = 30 caliber, 30 grains of black powder, .32-20 = 32 caliber, 20 grains of black powder, . 45-70 = 45 caliber, 70 grains of black powder.

When you said .38-200, I'm thinking...

Unlikely any liquid is leaking out of the scope - all that's inside should be nitrogen. Is the scope still clear? My only guess might be that somebody ran a very oily rag over the scope and the objective/tube joint caught some of it. Again, that seems unlikely. I doubt anybody would have an oily ra...

The Williams FP 'ghost ringed' by removing the aperture (after sighting in off the bench with the aperture in place), with the factory gold bead, works fine for me. I think most of the .32-20's have side-tapping from the factory, and thus can use the Williams FP-94 sight, but if yours isn't side-tap...

One is a "no fight means you win" mentality. Almost every time it is better to call the police and let them handle things if possible. It is aggravating sometimes but for the best. Avoiding big trouble is always the way to go. Yep. Back then, all CCW in Ohio was illegal, but as a 22 year ...

Consider the Lyman Globe, too - you can interchange the front for many types, depending on conditions... The sight is actually pretty compact and low-profile when installed on this kind of gun. http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa132/AJMD429/Leverguns%20etc/PumaTaurusGlobe.jpg This view is with a '...

Problem with that is it takes nearly an hour to down load a 3 minute youtube video. That is .... if the modem stays connected. Yeah - forgot about that. The local library might have stuff, too.

What magnification scope will you be using...? At 500 yards, 9" looks like under 2" at 100 yards, and is right at 1/2 MIL, or under 2 MOA, if I understand it right (which is not at all certain). Being able to see that precisely with my eyes, I've usually had to use a 24x (or greater) scope...

My little brother shoots and reloads for his 338 Lapua. Standard thread dies and they work in his single stage rockchucker, His dies also work in my Lee Turret press.

Funny you have to move to Mozambique to allow that.

How about if you used a hollow point version of that bullet...?

If none available, perhaps you could drill it out yourself.

Maybe Paco Kelly could help the Kalifornia shooters out with a tool to make the copper solids useful for smaller game than originally developed for.

As far as the GUN, the Marlin XLR 's are plenty accurate for that distance, just pick your cartridge. You've already got a .338 Marlin Express. I don't have a .338, but I do have a .444, and so I'd either pick the .444 Marlin or the .338 Marlin Express, depending on whether I was in a' momentum' mod...

If you know guns why not? There must be some place in your business that at worst you can hide a small handgun case (safe box) where you can bolt it down and carry the key on you. When you close carry the gun home. I would NEVER 'stash' a handgun (or any other loaded gun) anywhere at work, other th...

I always just thought that book was a bunch of reloading tables, but it looks like there is some 'discussion' about the cartridge (at least the one you showed).

BTW, 1-in 30 seems slow and it is for handguns but when you increase the velocity as you do from handgun length barrels to rifle length barrels the twist can be slower. NKJ's point is important - many times I'll see people say a given twist will be 'ok' or 'not ok', without taking that into account...

Any significant diff in brass costs? Oly From what I've seen there is more variation in price (and sources) for .338 Lapua brass, and it often reloads more times (lots of variables there, no doubt, as to guns, loads, technique, and not just the cartridge), but has been episodically hard to get.
