I need to get around to figuring out a way to offload some of the 22 LR I bought after the last panic. I bought 6,000 rounds about 4 years ago and have shot 100 round since.

I'm 42. When I was 35 I went to the Costco hearing aid booth and got a test. I'm down 15 dB in the left ear and 20 dB in the right. It is the middle ranges and enough that making out conversations in a restaurant is difficult. Causes - stupidity of youth. I shot without hearing...

.357 magnum shot from a carbine

I agree with the others. The first thing you need to do is talk to the renters. The next time they are shooting while you are mowing politely ask them to stop. Tell them you feel unsafe being downrange of their shooting range. Tell them that you are sure they are excellent shots and that...

Japan has a high suicide rate because it isn't considered taboo like in the USA and Japanese insurance policies pay out for suicide. For someone that has run up a large debt it is considered honorable for the debtor to kill themselves so that their family can use the insurance payout to settle...

I shoot rifles left handed so I like lever actions better than bolt. A lever does anything I need a rifle to do so I voted it makes for a reasonable substitute. If he is worried about future legislature, most high-capacity magazine bills I've read specifically exclude centerfire lever-action...

I can't think of a House vote on a gun control measure since the 1990's. The GOP controlled the House from 1995 - 2006, The DEMs from 2007-2010, and then the GOP again from 2011 until this year. I can't think of a single House vote for gun control when the GOP controlled the House. I also...

Their results clearly show that both blacks and whites have bias for their own group and against others. It is right there on the charts:

Seems like the industry is getting innovative with lead-free substitutes for muzzle loaders. They even have tungsten-iron round balls for the patch and ball traditional guys. https://www.americanhunter.org/articles/2015/10/2/five-muzzleloader-bullets-to-field-this-fall/

"Bullet Fragments in Venison.—Wound radiographs of all 30 eviscerated deer showed metal fragments (median = 136 fragments, range = 15–409) and offered a measure of fragment dispersion, albeit two dimensional. Extreme distance between fragment clusters in standard radiographs averaged 24 cm...
