    How many of you have seen this?

    LOL, that's so funny because my son and I were just talking about doing a parody video of a guy dressed up in leafy camo or ghillie suit driving around and squeezing a hoochie mama out the window. Sometimes reality is stranger than fiction, I guess.

    Is it against the law to kill my dog

    I'd kill him twice. LOL, sorry, that's a really nice rack. Is there such a thing as killing him, then cloning him and killing the clones?

    ALERT ALERT -HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM

    Sounds like there's a lot of us with this "condition". At home, I can't sleep without a loud fan on. When we travel, especially in hotel rooms when there is no background noise, it's crazy loud. The quieter it is, the louder the ringing is. I've just lived with it so long it seems normal, but there are certain ranges of sound I simply can't hear. My wife has to remind me if my turn signal is left on after changing lanes. I don't know if I caused mine by blaring 80's rock in my car as a kid or too much shooting without ear protection, or if it's just genetic.

    I actually had a similar incident when I was around 15 or 16. I was out duck hunting one morning near town, didn't have any luck and later in the morning shot a couple birds - something I grew up doing all the time with my pellet gun in the woods of Oklahoma. A game warden walked up and asked if I was duck hunting. I said, "Yeah, but no ducks so I'm just shooting some of these 'dickie' birds". He just laughed and recognized I obviously didn't realize that what I was doing was not legal, then informed me that here in AZ, any bird not given a specific season was illegal to shoot. That was over 25 years ago and I've never shot another non-game bird since. IMO, he handled the situation correctly. Problem solved, no courts or fines and no "repeat offenses". People are just a little too up-tight these days, lol.

    Yamaha Electric Drums

    Yamaha DTXplorer including throne. Asking $400 OBO - That seems to be the average price on Ebay, Amazon (used) and CL. Got it for the boys and nobody plays it - it's used but in brand new condition (paid $700 + $50 for throne). Would trade for .204 ruger, 22-250, .240, possibly handgun, bulk .223 or .22LR ammo, or ????. http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-DTX500K-Electronic-Drum-Kit/dp/B000WFWQ8M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1410282613&sr=8-2&keywords=yamaha+dtxplorer
  21. Anyone been watching this? http://www.nosler.com/news-and-articles/2013/11/22/the-26-nosler It looks like it could be one amazing round. It's built around the Accubond LR bullets, and as far as I've seen, rifles specially made by Nosler. I'm not aware of any other barrel makers out there, let alone big names behind this round. Nosler, who I didn't even know was in the rifle building business has their model 48 line that seems to be centered around this round. The brass is $66 per 25 on Midway USA. The reloading data is really where I find this round interesting. Wildcats love to overbore, but this is pushing things further than most wildcats, and for Nosler to break into the rifle building world around what I consider a pretty extreme cartridge: Powder charge runs from the high 70's in Retumbo to high 80's in mag powders, even 90+ compressed loads. That's a .260, 130 grain bullet. Compare that with .300 WSM where the loads are between 65-74 grains, or 300 Wby Mag or RUM, between 76 and 82 grains, and these loads are designed for 180 grain bullet for the most part. I have to say, I'm a little skeptical about pushing a .260 bullet behind what amounts to an Ultra Magnum case/charge, but it's beltless unlike the WBY mags that have always looked to take a tame, fast round and supercharge it on a .404 Jeffrey's case. The advertised MV is over 3400 fps with a Point Blank Rang of 0-415 yards. No bullet I've seen can match that, but will it be a commercially viable round?
