    What are some fun targets to use for target practice?

    Expired canned goods. Hit a can of bean soup w/.357 Puma and took a bean in the chest at 25 yards. Clay birds--reduce to powder from centerfire rifle hits. Shot with pistol or 22rf until all pieces are destroyed. MTM makes hangers that plug into their target stand and corrugated plastic...

    What clever little things have you "invented or discovered" that you can share?

    I get coffee cans and paint them with bargain basement spray paint to cover up the brands. Then uses the resulting items to sort and store brass casings.

    CCI 22 lr Misfire Rate

    I would expect that kind of misfire rate for that steel-case Russian 22LR stuff that was around some years back. CCI Blazer is quite reliable too, though they seem to have changed the bullet coating.

    I also have an M1895 Nagant 1913 w/1916 overstamp IIRC. Only shoots single-action. Have fired original ammo, but also 32 H&R, 32 S&W Short and Long. Cobbled together some loads with 32 SWL brass and 95gr SWCL with 1.5gr 100 Nitro. The bullets were samples from NBC bought back in 07 as I bought...

    What is the most intimidating firearm you have ever seen?

    An H&K MPK-5 in the hands of a W. German polizei. My brother and I were waiting in his car at a bus stop. He accidentally beeped and they came over. The raid on Libya had just happened.

    best camping knife ever if you have $20...

    I used my Frosts Swedish Army sheath knife to field dress a deer. That stainless steel blade held it's edge well. The polymer grip can stand up to abuse and the sheath stays on securely for safe carry in a pack or pocket.
