My condolences to you, Lloyd.
I’m currently back in the “old country” of my youth (the Ozarks) for a family funeral and am feeling that same pain of those foundational connections growing “thin.” |

Hopefully Claybuster is going to keep the supply going better than DownRange did and supply some data.
IMO one of the problems with the DR16 is data. Sure, we at 16ga.com have developed our own da ... |
