    Just spent an hour loading up some military ball for my old SMLE. It has a like-new barrel on it and shoots very well, my eyes are getting too old to shoot with open sights like I used to, but I can...

    @MB, this is my nightmare, but also, I imagine, my fate. Like you, at 8 years old I was completely obsessed with fishing. Far more so than my father, uncles, or anyone else in the family. My dad was...
