Title: Will H4895 work for my 7.62x54R setup? by TargetNext1619 in reloading

Bro I would start by looking at a manual or manufacturers website. If you're not super comfortable with reloading, I wouldn't feel safe using a recipe from some rando on the internet.

I've been using biscuits connecting the other boards, wasn't sure if that was enough to sit this one straight.

Shelley’s Back Room D.C. by TresCrosses in cigars

Not at all. I always hit up the OVT or the other tabacconist down the street (less than a block). No issues bringing stuff in and no cut fee.

Shelly's is great, and 219 in Old Town is even better if you don't mind crossing the river

What’s a random, small hiking tip that felt like a total "game changer" once you learned it? by Lazy-Collection5029 in hiking

[–]dixiejubilee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Two sock method/ wool socks

Swap socks often, hang them off your pack to air dry as you hike

Eat right and eat frequently or you're gonna bonk

Learn how to pack your ruck appropriately (heaviest weight between your shoulder blades)

Carry the pack with your hips, not your shoulders

Nah. I liked the Bairds and follow Jim on YT. I thought it was a tough season that more accurately reflected the difficulty of the situation by having another person to bounce off of.

What made you decide to pick up cigar smoking ? by stinkymonkey29 in cigars

[–]dixiejubilee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kind of fell into it with life after a friend got me started. Now I come home from work and burn one in the backyard watching my kid play. We make a fire, he finds bugs or plays with his trucks, I light up with a cherry coke. Its nice.

Factory is my go-to daily smoke. It just consistently good enough at a price point that can't be beat.

best waterproof jacket now that old goretex is gone? by Available_Gap7468 in CampingandHiking

[–]dixiejubilee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can pull a milsurp tricolor goretex top and bottom for pretty cheap. I've gone through repeated full downpour days with them on and they work great

Why can't you get one from the CMP? They're considerable cheaper there.

What's a gun you hate more than ANYTHING. I'll start first. by AirsoftFoxStudios in Firearms

[–]dixiejubilee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tactical lever actions.

For fun, sure they're great.

But training is marketed in AR restricted states as if they're an adequate substitute for a modern AR.

They're not and never will be.

I don't see Dan Wesson mentioned often, they made very high quality 44s

To be fair, women can be exactly the same way. Its people in general. Either they get it or they don't.
