    Dark Day

    Dark day is very true. I see the trek Rome took and see us on a similar path. Two months before Pearl Harbor happened, my parents were married. My Dad and two uncles were off to fight an offshore enemy (Mom and Dad, newlyweds, didn't see each other for just shy of 4 years) . Our current...

    What cartridge?

    I'm a vote for .308 win as well. My kimber weighs 5.5 lbs without scope with a 22 inch barrel. It is a delight to carry. I have loads for both 168 g and 125 g MKZ Cavity Back Bullets (all copper, 3 flutes, CNC machined in Montana, cavitybackbullets.com). The 168 g runs 44g varget, 2.835"...

    Reloading Safety

    I agree with all of the comments and wisdom conveyed above. Yes, I did a double take at the torch and laughed later when I learned that torch meant light and not a flame!! Glad it was so, best to ya Fordy! Relaying a glitch I recently had while reloading in hopes that others can learn from my...
