    Anyone know the legality of using lead shot when shooting clays over Lake Taupo? I know there's a couple of boats doing clay shooting as a tourist attraction. I'm not planning on shooting over...

    Hmmm, not sure we're on the same page with this. If I'm wrong, I'm happy to be corrected. Using your figures, what I'm saying is: > The 100W incandescent bulb will produce 85W of heat and 15W of...

    What do you think happens to all that light when it's in a closed container like a gunsafe? It's not getting out of the safe as light. It doesn't build up inside the safe so you get a massive burst...

    Well if you were able to shoot the pictured cartridges through it, it certainly would have been one of a kind! :)

    There'd be a justification for both the 3.5-18x44 and the 2.4-12x50. The 2.4-12x50 is an inch shorter, has 29% more objective lens area and should have more depth of focus. As I understand it, side...

    That doesn't seem quite right - how could there be a slot cut in the barrel for the firing pin? Setting off the round requires support of the case rim under the firing pin - a slot would seem to be...
