Simple question, someone or 'someones' are jiggling your front door, even pounding on it......you say, " go away or I will shoot'  and they comply.  OR  they do come in, when you said nothing, they all are armed, even have BP vests, and you die in the shootout, your family killed, or worse.  Which option had the better outcome.  I know, I know, stupid question, but the point is, there are some situations that verbal warnings can prevent tragic, unnecessary outcomes.

I have trained with both and can recommend them both, as well as at least a half dozen others.  Each one has a similar theme but different presentations as well as unique tips and techniques.  There is no ONE way.  All have been very enjoyable.

From my understanding, as long as you are on your own property, no endangering anyone, you can legally hunt/shoot within the TWRA regs.

There are no guarantees in a gunfight.  As Batman said, shooting is a last resort.  If a simple verbal warning eliminates the threat, the family will be much safer with shouting rather than bullets bullets flying.  OTH, he sums it up with being prepared through training to respond with force if need be.

anybody else had trouble like I posted with Bullseye?  I mean that stuff wasn't coming out unless scrubbed to the point of taking paint and all off.

I have an old LC in 12ga.  It too made by Hunter.  I have used it several times on S. Dakota pheasant hunts.  I used typical trap loads, loaded with 'English 7's'.  Stay away from heavy loadings in these old guns; they have a history of cracking the wood in the wrist of the stock.

Get your taper crimp down to 0.468. Be sure you are placing the bullet on the case mouth as close to perfectly straight as possible. If you feel there is wax and or lead around the case mouth, take some Hornady cleaner/lube on a cloth clean the area by twisting it in cloth several times. This can cause some chamber build up and tightness, especially if you first few rounds are cycling well then it starts getting erratic.

Well.....IF...... it breaks off, it is not a very tight fit and I assume the bad guy will have one extra hole in him with a 'little yellow thingy' sticking in him too.  :cool:

skeet and trap have different requirements.  While both can be shot with 7 1/2  shot or smaller, some skeet fields require #9 shot, which works just fine and preferred by many. No need for heavy loads.  Skeet can also be shot with any gauge, hence smaller shot will give better pattern density.   Trap on the other hand is a 12ga game.  Not that you can't use others, but serious trap is a 12 game.  Generally 7 1/2 or 8 is a personal choice until you start backing up beyond the 20 yd. line, then the nod goes to the 7.1/2. 

I would bet most who post negatively about the Vesa Carry have not tried it.  I use one routinely.  Very easy to put on and take off.  Routinely it is comfortable, and very good concealment.  Releases the gun easily.  Oh yeah, haven't shot myself either and I carry with one in the pipe.

Anybody want to get rid of their 9mm, I be glad to re-cycle it for them. 

I usually leave my powder in the hopper of my Hornady LNL.  The Bullseye was practically glued to the sides of the metal part and had to be wire brushed off......paint and all.  The plastic portion of the hopper was yellowed and blistered from the prolonged contact.  WSF powder slightly yellowed the plastic, but was not stuck to the metal after prolonged exposure.  Haven't had any difficulty with Clays for my shotgun reloader with either of the issues, but the plastic bottles are different.

yes, Lee molds.  But I think I will take RED up on his soot offer.  I trust that it is 'certified' soot and has passed all EPA standards. :surrender:

what is your favorite product to keep the casting mold from being 'sticky'.  Having some trouble getting the bullets to drop out of the molds freely.  Any favorite 'home brew'?

haven't been there......but never seen it at the two indoor ranges I have been to.  Sounds like a poor design.  It is a gun range you know.

  Yep, like polymer guns that require little to nothing.

It is amazing that there are so many, old.......really old guns that still work when there was nothing but Hoppes and 3 in 1 oil. :usa:

' Well Sir, I had all the training because I knew a well-trained and qualified officer wouldn't be available until after all the smoke had cleared'.

Here in TN you are not allowed to marry your sister either.......not sure that's an advantage or disadvantage on your list. :wave:   Welcome to TN.

No.  If you are  becoming a resident of TN, you have 6mos to take the course for a carry permit.  That is, if you have a permit from a state TN honors.

  Yeah,...........does the name "Zimmerman"  ring any bells ?!?

Careful now.....don't be offending REAL snipe hunters. 

September issue of Guns and Ammo addresses this problem.  According to the articled all are running 24/7.  All are also investing and expanding operations.  My guess is that by spring there will be normal ammo supplies.  (I HOPE)
