Thanks for keeping this community in the loop. It's good to get a first hand look at the effects of this disease. Heres to a speedy recovery. Glenn

Exactly. FWIW... My experience with 133 is just "hands on". The first lot I tried was 1994. 20 plus years ago. I have not discovered a lot that consistently shot great in all my barrels. I Suspect that has a lot to do with bullets,barrels,reamers,shooter skills, etc,etc. Glenn

Old Age I can’t see worth a damn. Got laser iridotomy surgery five years ago. as a Preventive maintenance recommendation. At the time,Had cataracts but not at a stage that needed surgery,According to Doctor. Due for another eye exam soon. . Cant hear worth a damn. High and low frequency loss...

After Surgery For shooting, I use De-cot sport glasses. Had an eye doctor, skeet shooter, make prescription lenses, for the decot frames. The vision correction is positioned in the lens to assist specific requirements while shooting. The Doctor recommended a light lens tint. there are a...

Hearing protection These work fine with foam ear plugs. I have irrepairable high and low frequency loss in both ears. Trying to hold on to what hearing I got left. There are a lot of good choices out there,it just depends on how much you want to spend...

Its a good chance he will, he's a fighter. thanks

cover-19 During my life, i have seen,up close, too much death and the collateral emotional damage it causes. I just recently learned that a vietnam vet friend, that I was in country with, is in ICU,after having contracted the covid-19. He was a Helicopter door gunner. We hunted together on my...

Matt, I can assure you that your mentor was correct in that the dial indicator on that rail, Hall/Powell, generated a lot of curiosity.:D It caused me to create this post with photos.:D Thanks for the background info on this Rail. It shows the lengths some will go in the search for accuracy...

Spotting scopes are to Benchrest what binoculars are to Opera.:D Glenn

Yes,I've heard that T powder story before.Makes you wonder,How much of the notoriety of This old powder can be mostly attributed To the shooting skills of Walt Berger, Don Geraci and others. Wish I had a private shooting range in my backyard. Glenn

Dial Indicator Hey Scott,congrats, good shooting at the Cactus. I suppose the dial indicator could be used as you described. May explain the 1-10,000th dial reading. I ran the windage from center to stop, and the needle moved very slightly. Saturday morning, at 200, the heavy fog mixed with...

We were all curious as to how one could focus on wind flags and dial indicator,that reads in 1-10,000th of an inch, while shooting in the wind. I haven't seen a dial indicator on any of the later Rail gun designs. Interesting addition. Glenn

hmm....The bottle my T-powder came in says T-32,lot 2. I wonder if its some lot of 8208. Glenn

Unbelievable 300 members, hugging, holding hands and kissing. After the last hymn is sung, they take whatever viruses they might have been exposed to, back to their respective communities. Not smart. The tithes are more important than common sense. Glenn

Yep...It was an Arkansas monsoon:D Its been said that the best time to look for diamonds and arrow heads, is right after the monsoon stops. Well...Better luck next time. I definitely intend to get up to "Charlene's meadow",hopefully in the near future. Glenn

Dave, we tried designing battery powered shot counters to affix to the target frames, to address the issue of "cheaters" during proposed unregistered group shoots at a local club. I believe the shot counter idea is still a work in progress. It could be a deterrent to the dishonest. Several...

How many diamonds did you find? Good to see ya Richard. Glenn

I didn't read all the previous responses(suggestions). Do you think a change in venue, group,score. poker chips etc. would have an impact on attendance. What do the local accuracy buffs around your area like? Score is most popular around this area. Glenn

Registered vs Unregistered? Look at the names of competitors at the recently held Cactus.Some on that list shoot regularly at local Club matches. Some have their own private ranges. Others shoot at ranges close by. What I take from seeing this cactus match report is, just because you play Golf...
