500 mag? I don’t know if I ever heard of it. You guys really have some nice guns and really shoot a lot of ammo! I can see why you reload. Personally, here is my story. I started hunting and shooting at the age of 13 in 1958 in Lancaster county, Pa. In 1964 I started deer hunting with a Winchester model 94, .32 Winchester Special. It’s long gone and I wish I had it back. In 1971 I bought a Remington 760 Gamemaster .30-06. I forgot exactly how many deer it took but somewhere around 35. And I missed a lot too. I did better in the woods in Carbon county with iron sights than with the scope that I put on it in 1977. Unfortunately last deer season was my last. I have great memories and photos but it makes me sad to think about it. My health just won’t let me hunt deer anymore. But I bought a hunting license the other day just to get out in the state game lands and take one of my four .22 rifles for small game. Actually, I just want to get out in the fields and woods as long as my legs will let me. I don’t stray too far from the car. I still belong to a gun club and shoot small bore revolvers and rifles. I will close with this, my list of guns: two Marlin .44 magnums model 1894, one with a scope and one with iron sights, one Remington.12 gauge Wingmaster, one Browning Light Twelve .12 gauge semi auto made in Belgium in 1971, two Henry .22 lever actions, one Golden Boy and one Classic rifle. A Marlin 925R .22 bolt action with a scope, a.38 special, .357 magnum, and two .22 revolvers. A Springfield.22 bolt action rifle made in or around 1935. And as before, the Remington 760 Gamemaster. I like to look at them sometimes. I have a concealed weapons permit for Pennsylvania. Hope I didn’t bore anyone. I never learned to reload or own any equipment. I never shot like you guys do.
Let me help you out. Which way did you come in?

There are months I don’t shoot at all, there are months where I go through a couple thousand rounds in various calibers. I started hunting in high school with several other guys. The administration knew what we did in the morning, they knew we didn’t go back home to put away the guns, and the only question we ever got is if we shot anything. I did notice we were watched a few times during lunch when we went out to the parking lot. This was Fairfax county in the mid 80s. I ran a gun rack in the pickup until 93ish, and it had guns in it in the fall. No one ever said a word about it. But it really wasn’t all that long ago when high school kids in NYC rode the subway with their .22s for after school rifle league. I could say exactly what changed, but I’m trying not be too political on a sports site.

This is the deer hunters in 1974. I’m the one with my hands in my pockets. The rest are all dead now except for the little guy in the front.

Hah...she laughed but that looked painful.  She definitely felt that in the right wrist.  Least she didn't let it hit her in the forehead.
My wrists hurt so much from daily abuse...and lifetime of activities...I don't even have an interest in shooting that.
my .357 mag in 6" barrel is plenty for my wimpy self

Hillbilly's wrist hurts... "from daily activities".  :snicker:

Hell, I don't even shoot .357 mag anymore. Thankfully .38spl is smooth through the ol' 66. But it'll twist a wrist if ya want it to..

So....got some Tannerite for my birthday.  Exactly how much room/distance do I need for this?
Only shot some once about 15years ago and it was much bigger bang than expected.
Also, is it flammable when detonated?  I basically live in the woods.  I have a pistol range, but to get any distance, said explosive will need to be into the woods....currently full of dead leaves....and FAR from the nearest fire station.

Thinking I will have to take it to my step sons house who has some open land, but have to do it when his Dembot fembot wife ain't around.

I haven’t shot tannerite in years. I don’t remember it being flammable, but I only shot moderate doses. The people I hear about that have problems are shooting 20 plus pounds at a time, which usually results in large pieces of something coming back at you causing injury, and excessive noise.


When in doubt, read the directions.. and follow them. I don’t think it’s ever been considered “safe” for handgun ranges.
