  1. Vegas is very powerful, if the Studio version has even 1/10th the features of what I used to use, it's money well spent. Once you learn how to use keyframes in the timeline, and manipulate envelopes, you will be amazed at what you can do. For the $10 more, I'd get the Platinum version because it includes DVD Architect for authoring DVD and BluRay discs. If you want to try before you buy, you can download a fully functional 30 day trial version from the Vegas website. I kinda miss my video editing system, it was a beast (back in the day). Having the right video card and quad processors will make things go faster. Vegas is very hardware intensive. My system had dual video cards and LCD monitors, a TV hooked up for preview, 2 hardware SCSI 160 RAIDs, a serial ATA RAID and dual Xeon processors. The more SFX you use, the more you will benefit from a robust PC because Vegas renders your project in real time.
  2. Look into Sony Vegas Movie Studio, costs about $50. I used to edit with vegas pro about 15 years ago, the pro version can be somewhat complicated with all the advanced filters, transitions and FX features. The Movie Studio version is a light version, probably equivalent to what I used back then. The nice thing about Vegas is that you can be editing video in just a few hours. The basic dragging dropping preview selecting and adding to the timeline is fairly simple. Basic transitions are easy too. As time goes on, and you experiment with things, your videos will just get better and have a higher production value.
  3. They sell these at R14. It's like 6 for $2. If you have zipties, just make a couple.
  4. They still have them, and they are garbage, always falling apart. I've seen a stiff gust rip the cardboard off the stake, and using the post hole digger is a PITA. They are kinda low to the ground too. A hardwood 5' landscape stake with a quarter sheet of coroplast (same stuff as yard signs) stapled to it is far more reliable. You can fit 4 to 8 targets on a 2'x4' sheet. They make good rifle targets but not very good for pistol when shooting for CoM. For pistol, you need something with two stakes like the PVC stands.
  5. Retail garden centers have been all but killed off by Home Depot and Lowes. For the holiday experience, you need to find a landscape nursery. Around here we have Casola Farms and Brock Farms.
  6. R-14 does not provide target stands. You will see a variety of store bought and homemade target stands on the range. Some of the more popular ones are DIY stands made of PVC and lumber. Just be aware that targets cannot be taller than 5'.
  7. For about $200.00, you can get a FLIR or Seek thermal camera for your smartphone. You will find out all kinds of neat things about your house.
  8. Ummm, uhhhh.... Nevermind. As you were.
  9. Federal Tactical 8 pellet 00. It's the cat's ass.
  10. There are some nice ones, but the auction before this one was better, several nice O/Us. I really gotta get to one of these auctions. The Winchester Model 70 in 257 Bob looks interesting.
  11. No. Did you watch the video?
  12. It is not against the law for a US citizen to buy something legal to possess in a state where it is legal to possess. It would be illegal to buy it on line and have it shipped to NJ.
  13. ya mean, like, 15 rd magazines?
  14. water heater and dryer are both on their own 220 corcuits,, you can split that to four 20A circuits.
  15. Sadly, I had to miss this one too, and it's all Zeke's fault.. Here I am, slaving away at home working on my kitchen remodel while @Zeke is out there having fun shooting clays. It should be me out there shooting clays, and Zeke here slaving away in my kitchen. I mean, he's the construction expert, people should stick to what they are best at, hence, why it should be me out there busting clays.
  16. Have you ever done car or bike events at Carlisle PA, or any other car or bike shows, like Gettysburg ?
  17. Heavier bullets are inherently more accurate than lighter ones due to the higher ballistic coefficient. But, you need a twist rate fast enough to stabilize heavier bullets.
  18. M855 is Jersey legal, but dont expect any accuracy from it, it's garbage. Besides the green tip range fodder, you can get 62gr in a variety of flavors, most commonly available is soft point, OTM and full metal jacket. Several companies make 62gr OTM cartridges, but I can't say anything good or bad about them. Your 1:7 barrel will stabilize bullets up to, at least, 77gr. YOu may want to skip the 62gr non green tip and go for 69gr, 75gr and 77gr OTM to see what shoots best in your rifle.
  19. Nothing here, go to the next house.
  20. http://outages.firstenergycorp.com/nj.html The storm didn't seem too bad here in 07724, but 20 minutes after the storm passed, the power went out. Running on generator now. According to NJ 101.5, only Sandy surpassed this level of outages.
  21. Sounds like anxiety. Some people freak out when they get to the open sea, especially when they can no longer see land.
  22. Okay, so, you press in a clip, remove hand and first round strips off the clip and chambers, pull (press) trigger, it goes bang and ejects spent shell (so we know the bolt is moving back like it's supposed to and the extractor is working) second round does not get chambered. Is the round stripping off the clip but not chambering? Can you chamber the second round by manually cycling action? After the first round pops off, is the bolt open or closed?
  23. Hire an architect to evaluate the house. It's like buying insurance against making an incredibly big mistake. The same architect should be able to give you an idea of your options for a one wall standing remodel.
