    Hey MM

    Long time no see. Ever get a powder horn made? I've been into modern military weapons and centerfires for a while but looking at some old doubles on Gunbroker. I'll have a .50 BMG next month, own the receiver now.

    Raw Horn??

    If the bovine was made by Chrysler corp in the 60's the passenger side horn would be left hand thread, driver's side right hand thread. Hope this helps

    I am impressed

    I took a chance and ordered some MT sleeves (1-5, $18.50) and a coil of bandsaw blade stock (3/16-32x100',$20) from this company http://victornet.com/cgi-bin/victor/index.html They were advertised as import, the sleeves were made in W. Germany and the blade stock in Mass. They included their...

    Wood removal tool

    I gained a lot of respect for the Shurform watching an experienced body man work some Bondo. Half hardened, it came off like spaghetti. Says a lot for watching how zealously you use it.

    Wood removal tool

    Never mind, I got your drift. I bought some hand raised files from Harbor freight. In less than an inch of width there were maybe 8 teeth tops. What I didn't like about these was that the teeth were pretty much lined up along the file's long axis. They work OK but need to be used at an angle...

    Wood removal tool

    If you search file sharpening, there is a guy who sharpens files here. Maybe he could make that 70 yo file new. What did you mean by "stay away from metal"?

    Target Shooting

    You give her too much credit, I'll bet she could gripe. It's all about focus

    Target Shooting

    Zen or just wanting it. Focus is what it's all about. I remember losing at a public 8-ball tourney after literally shooting my heart out on tables that had been set up 45 minutes earlier. Honest to God, I was going for the throat but it just wasn't in the cards for that 8 to run 3 cushions and...

    Who'd pay $22.99 for another two inches?

    Glad to be of help. (sigh) It's unfortunate everyone here isn't of my caliber.

    different disciplines

    I mightb get thrown out for this but my favorite is semi-auto centerfires and pump or semi-auto shotguns. I just like the firepower. Next my C+B revolver and then my NYS rolling block. This ain't to say that I dislike ML's at all, just like the convenience of smokeless. I get a big kick out of...

    Discriminating?

    I wondered about the safety of them when I saw that always smoldering wick thing. They are a little iffy for me.

    Rifling a Barrel

    Saw the vid. i recall reading that the old timers stopped to shim the broach out once in a while. Didn't see this guy doing that, How does he get from start to finish?

    This'll throw ya!

    If it wasn't acceptable to the pentagon it was probably because they found something less suitable and more expensive.

    Maybe you can post how to load a gun with a chain. Watch those aluminum vapors, Al is said to play a role in senility.

    Digital Calipers

    I bought this pair, HF might be more accessible for some. They are building stores in the bigger cities. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=47257 $20 plus sales tax if you can find a store. Some of the digital calipers I've seen don't have the roller wheel for...
