Spotting scopes... What do all the numbers mean?
The larger the front lens is, the more light it can gather in, making the image brighter.

Thanks, my Lee machine says to only use CCI or Winchester primers? Not sure why? I will be getting into rifle reloading in the spring but for now I only do 9mm and .40S&W.

Marlin model 60 Thumbhole Stock
Yeah, I went to look at them yesterday and they are all gone. I need a price like that on an Evolution for my Ruger 10/22

If Tim is coming, I think I will bring out my 40+ year old .22 rifle to show him.

Sarco
I went to Sarco's a few years ago looking for a RIA and it was much more expensive than their website or newspaper. The guy there (who just happened to be a former student of mine) told me "oh, those are dealer prices", I said wtf does that mean? He could not give me an answer. That place su$ks!

Central Jersey Rifle & Pistol Club Pits closing temporarily
Thanks Tom, this is going to make a great range even better! I really liked the layout and amenities when I was there in October. Do you think they ban pistol caliber carbines because of the added velocity (due to added barrel length) or because they can't be bothered checking which carbine is pistol caliber and which isn't?

Stuff like this makes me want to scream
The problem is that many of these developments, either a gated community or the thousand of age restricted communities, could only get the permits and variances if they formed a association or corporation to watch over the rules set by the original people forming the association. They oversee the maintenance and upkeep of the "common ground" as well as all of the amenities that most of these communities have, such as pools, tennis courts, meeting rooms and parking lots. They also make sure that the overall "look and feel" of the community are maintained. If this is a townhouse or condo development, they regulate (and usually own) the exterior of all the units. Some are so ridiculous that they forbid even putting up a string of Christmas lights on your porch. However, over the years many of these associations have added addendum to their rules and I think that is what is needed in this situation. I live a community with a HOA but they are not ego maniacal asshats! The next community over is. Kinda the luck of the draw.

I'll bring my XD and plenty of ammo too. Last week, we talked so much, I only shot about 100 rounds. Anybody bringing out their Storm Carbines? I can bring mine if anybody wants to try it out?

Anyone have a Keurig Coffee Maker?
I do not drink coffee but my wife does. I was at a friends last month and he had one and everybody was picking out what kind of coffee they wanted. It looked pretty cool. If it is on all the time, isn't it using a lot of electricity to keep the water "hot" and ready to go? Sounds like a very expensive cup of coffee to me?

Where is the video? I didn't see it. Wolfy was showing us how to do the Mark III at BA on the 1st and, well, you know how things never go the way you expect when you are trying to explain something :shock: He did get it working after a minute :clap:

Central Jersey Rifle & Pistol Club Pits closing temporarily
Tom, I had a question about the pits. I have shot there for the steel shoots and it was a lot of fun. My question is, can members use the steel targets for practice or are they just for the events and you have to bring your own if you want to practice (assuming they let you practice steel in the pits). I am guessing remediation involves removing x yards of soil from the berms and sifting it through some sort of screen or grate to remove the lead and then put it back on the berms?

Are they closing the entire range or just the pits?
