    9.3-338

    I have both and they are both great. I can get 2505 with a 286 North Fork from my 9.3 so I am quite happy with that.

    9.3-338

    OK, I'll be damned... it had an Alaskan name because 366 Alaskan WAS the name!

    9.3-338

    Yes…and I am trying to remember what the guy called it (besides 9.3/338) **Sorry - can't rememeber. Had an Alasakan name... I think the guy even had RCBS make dies. It was very close to a 9.3 x 64

    Hesitations about Africa

    Thoughts on Current SpaceX Pullback

    It’s being pressure tested big time by a lot of guys who wanted to play the game and taking the piss out of it because, well, they could. I think a lot of people want it to fail.but the Falcons keep flying and things move forward and none of the big brains know what will happen tomorrow as usual.
