Hey Guys,

Aplogies for skipping out on Dinner, but my feet were wet, cold, and freezing.

Dang Snow!

It was great to meet some of you yesterday, Hope to do it agian soon under more favorable weather conditions.

That Tannerite was cool stuff.

I think those 55gr loads I was using were weak loads.

the first magazine I shot were filled with 75gr loads, and didn't have the feeding problems then, until the 55gr loads were put in.
563, were the 75gr Black Hills as well?

Better stock up on Tannerite while you can, some guy in MN set off 100lbs of the stuff and got himself arrested, and is now making the news circuit. So it's only a matter of time before they Ban this stuff :(

class="forumText"BREAKING NEWS: Explosion felt at nuclear plant
R-E News Staff The Republican Eagle
Published Sunday, January 13, 2008

An explosion near the Prairie Island Indian Community rocked the area and put nuclear plant personnel on high alert for a short while Sunday.

Goodhue County Sheriff Dean Albers said a Welch Township man used explosives ordered through the mail to blow up a dump truck on his property.

"It was quite an explosion," Albers said.

The man cooperated with authorities, handing over a videotape of the blast, Albers said.

As of Sunday night, the man had not been arrested or charged with a crime. No one was injured by the blast.

The sheriff is unsure what type of material the man used but said the explosion was heard and felt more than one mile away at the Prairie Island nuclear plant.

Mike Wadley, site vice president of the nuclear plant, said the facility was under heightened security from about 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. until officials could determine what happened.

Security personnel at the plant's gatehouse "heard a loud noise" and felt the station's windows rattle at about 5 p.m., Wadley said. Security staff then alerted local authorities and initiated heightened security procedures, he said.

Wadley said the plant returned to normal activity once investigators established the incident was "in no way associated with the Prairie Island nuclear generating plant."

"We take all this type of abnormal — or suspicious — activity very seriously," Wadley added.

Albers said he will talk with Goodhue County attorneys to determine if the man will be charged with a crime.

"I'm a little bit curious about how he got explosives through the mail," Albers said. "Especially in this post-9/11 era."

A critical, in-depth discussion on why those silouette targets have their hands folded in front of... in the manner that they are...

Brutus is planning on wearing his tactical BLACK collar and leash, a black tactical vest fitted with a holster and a pouch for spare ammunitions.

Can anyone help me fit him with some kind of target holder? He'd make a great reactive target. :D
