    A 375H&H would be a great gun.

    I'd still take the greater firepower offered by a 12 pump gun. Between 6 and 8 ounces of lead depending on magazine size, delivered accurately, in 3-4 seconds?

    Yeah, I'd take that over any dozen assorted saints you can think of.


    Appreciate the well wishes. Got a little struggle in the near term and some time-management issues kicking my a$$ right now, but I will manage and come out the other side better off.


    Looking into Class 3 stuff right now. It's so expensive, but I just can't stop thinking about how much fun a full auto .22 LR would be...

    'Morning Bret and everyone. JP, even at our ammo prices, I shudder at the cost of firing even .22LR in full auto. Doesn't mean that I wouldn't wanna unload a mag or 2 out of an AK, just for the experience Plus, they're forbidden fruit here in Canada. Prohibited by name, while an AR is treated kinda like the SBR's on your side of the border and a Tavor is legally treated as a hunting rifle - yaaaay for government logic lol

    Class 3 is pretty pricey here, but it is do-able.

    Ammo prices are another cost entirely. Enough to make a grown man cry... Oh, how I long for the days of .22 ammo at $10 a brick.

    'Morning Bret and everyone. JP the lowest I've seen over the last few years was $15 a brick of 555's, but nowadays, the cheapest stuff is in the $20-30 ballpark. You see the Fed 525's, which are pretty decent in my guns for $30 and they fly off the shelves. I'm well stocked for my needs, so I won't be getting any more rimfire ammo while in Canada.

    She loves her new car. It makes me sad that it was the best I could do for her; I wish I could win the lottery before I die.

    'Morning Bret and everyone. Bret, just keep TCB and just check in with us when you got spare time Tips, if she loves it and it serves her safely and reliably, then you did your job. For most of us there will always be at least one car we like and can't afford. Many would wish they could afford an Escort.

    I think most of of wish we could do that. The truth is, we don't know when the trumpet will sound for us. I could die today, and you could outlive me.

    Another truth is the greatest win we can have is available to ALL of us. We just have to agree to accept it.

    Good morning, Bret and everyone!

    Tell Karen thank you for me please. I will buy a lottery ticket today. I was able to pay back $1,200.00 on that $1,500.00 loan, and that makes me happy.

    Now my wife has gone down with severe headaches and feelings of nausea. We are waiting results of blood and urine testing. I have taken her off the e-cigarettes because I've read they can cause those symptoms. Now it's a waiting game. I'm actually feeling better than her, for the time being anyway.

    They didn't have e-cigs in 1993, when I quit smoking.

    I used what was then a prescription nicotine patch. Three levels, from pack a day level down to a few per day, and then it was easier to walk away entirely.

    Chocolate helped, too.
