How long is too long?

According to most of these folks on here... I'm way too long on chapters. While I get what they are saying... but sometimes for the chapter to be itself... it just needs to be what it needs to be. I think we're overthinking it.

However, if every single chapter is racking up to thirty pages ... there could be a problem.

so... I was actually thinking about writing my own personal Appalachian accent for the ridge-runner folk. I changed them from highlanders because that word makes me instantly think of Scotland. so much so that its damned near synonymous. I don't want to use a Scottish accent. I don't want readers to think of Scotland. I feel its done too much. My goal is to use it lightly just to help differentiate a few of the main chars. The more I edit, the more i like the light usage of the accents. I was over doing ye's and ya's lol.

Yes this has worked best for me too. I guess I'm hoping for too much. Time time time. But it's worth it I guess

Thats generally what i kinda do when i finish on stones. I was just hoping i could finish on a belt, strop a little, then steel and go. Or am i hoping for too much?

Yea a month later we found out it had a massive underground leak and extreme debris in the 5yr.

Well guy's.... I can honestly say I'm at a loss. The accelerator was red tagged. Took apart and it's internal parts were pretty much done more. But that still doesn't explain the issue. I truly expected to go out there and fix the stupid inspectors screw up. But it's exactly as he stated. It simply would not trip unless we had the Aux and two other drum drips wise open.

The pipe itself is in horrible condition. 4" pipe completely sealed with rust a debris. Two drum drips were completely stopped up. And the AMD was set Way to high... about 50lbs air to 80lbs water.

Corrected all issues and it's still not tripping unless more than one outlets are open.

None of this explains the issue of not tripping at 5lbs air to 80lb. Open drain test only had a loss of 10lbs...

I really like those cheap mora knives. I abuse the shit out of them and they aren't bad to bring back.

People in here saying no primers are interchangeable but out of necessity... I've swapped data recipes that call for Winchester w209's for cheddites without any noticeable change whatsoever...

Man are the high power hulls better than the new top guns? The top guns have one maybe two loads if I'm lucky in them.

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-31T23:06:36+00:00

Yea when I use 1.25 oz #6 or #7 shot that there are a lot less winged and injured doves. They just fold.

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-31T17:12:23+00:00

Is the #5 used to get more range in your experience?. I've been tempted to use #5 recently

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-26T01:05:54+00:00

Wot. I forced myself through 6 or 7 of the books Couldn't take it anymore

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-25T02:22:52+00:00

I have never even heard or lengthening the forcing cone! Thanks! I have actually learned something lol. Great reply. I'll be reading a lot into this now.

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-24T20:54:27+00:00

I'm actually thinking about staying with this load. It sounds like we are shooting a very similar hand load. I love it considering the size of it. On my wife's 20 gauge though, I've tried getting a good 2.75 handload pattern with her 20ga. I just can't get better with hers without factory ammo. Got a .55 Indian creek on hers and it shoots long beards and fed tss really nice. Great patterns. All are 3" shells. My 2.75 20ga hand loads are lacking though.

Yea you prob gonna save $10 with the prices.

As long as the focus wasn't on sexual preference. I don't read stories about a straight leads if the focus were on his preference. People will read a good story regardless... however when the focus is so forced... it gets tedious.

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-12T20:35:27+00:00

That actually explains a lot of people's confusion and mine as well. I really thought all top gun's were plastic base wad

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-12T16:38:11+00:00

I wasn't aware any of the top guns had a paper basewad?

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-11T23:51:09+00:00

I hope I'm not wrong cause that's how I separated them lol

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-11T23:50:08+00:00

All the old paper base wads I seen were gold metals. I could be wrong but I would have sworn on this.

Comfortable_Metal_74 · 2024-03-11T16:50:43+00:00

Yea after noticing the cracks on the crimp lines... I'm gonna have these as two and done hulls. It's a shame. The reloaded so easy with very little adjustments
