« on: April 09, 2020, 03:40:40 AM »
The wife and i are both working our ass off as both our jobs are considered essential. The company i work for switches the trailers in and out of the local paper mill, And she is a manager at our local dollar tree,We have letters from our companies that state as such. She got a 2 dollar an hour raise for hazzard pay,,,wow a whole 2 bucks. I got put on call 24-7 since i can dispatch ,load plan,drive over the road and drive a spotter truck....We always keep at least 2 months of food and essentials so no probs there . We have avoided the plague so far...

Ask The Experts / Re: 44-40 vs 45 colt.
« on: February 17, 2018, 03:29:56 PM »
The thin case mouth and slight bottleneck is what make the 44-40 better with blackpowder. seals the chamber on a rifle better than the 45 colt,

Call Track of the Wolf, They make their own nipples in house now. I ordered a set for an old Signiture Colt 49 for a friend and they work extremely well . They can set you up with the right size
