on a lighter note...

They rank right up there with my metric pliers.
I had beena couple of years working the high country when I left and was in my joinery/furniture making apprenticeship for about 6 months when we changed all measurements over to metric in the late 60's. Mother asked how it would effect me so I told her I had to buy all new tools - saws were all sharpened at points per inch and had to be changed for points per centimeter, 6 inch square for a 150mm one etc etc and my father was trying to keep a straight face as I went through the list of tool I needed to change untill it got so obvious that she caught on. Was a fun 1/2 hr though

Hard to believe FIFTY years have gone by since that song hit the charts.
 
God I have been looking for these forever along with the long lost sky hook, black tin of compression and long weight.
Yes indeed, along with the rope pusher, the portable hole and the bucket of steam!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
