Hence the "caution and attention to detail" Guys who develop new loads go very slowly, watching the effects they make with small incremental changes. It is a whole different art, best left to people with the right measuring equipment, who know how to "read" fired brass and look for the other signs of pressures that are going too high.
Ah, that's the problem. You use Americans as jurors.
I would have thought there'd be a distance limit, as in not within x yards of another property.
The problem arises when you miss. Same goes for fishermen and lead weights.
It leads to cool youtube videos.
... and the ones who don't know how to get out of jury duty
There is, typically "X" hundred feet "from an occupied building or space". In the city they know you can't get that far away so they just say no discharge of a firearm. (except cops, drug dealers and guys who catch their wife in bed with another guy)
So in a city you can't shoot a burglar?
I'd like to get INTO jury duty, to make a difference.
Not in the "blue" ones. I know a guy who went to jail for beating up an intruder. (the guy did die)
I would be OK in a criminal trial but when they interviewed my to be a jury member in a medical malpractice suit, I answered "I think doctors, lawyers and insurance companies are a fiscal perpetual motion machine that raises the price of everything we buy and everything we do" They told me I could leave and they never called me back.
I whispered 'jury nullification' and that was good for about 20 years of peace and quiet. There must be a statute of limitations because I got the postcard informing I was up this spring.
Right. The last jury I was on resulted in a mistrial when the prosecution realized he didn't have a case 15 minutes in. The judge chewed his ass and apologized to us for wasting our time.
I thought Law 101 was to know what your star witness was going to say before you called her but the idiot must have gotten his degree from Trump U.
The gist of it is "Such property owner also has a responsibility to conduct his shooting in such a way that he does not carelessly put his neighbors at risk."
I don't miss :) Since all I hunt anymore is cardboard or spinners the lead winds up in the berm. A thousand years from now some geologist can figure out the massive lead deposits.
I disagree. A baseball bat is round, so the point of contact with the skull is smaller, so more concentrated. Much more force per square inch, more likely to break a bone.
Not sure what you mean. Were you threatening to throw the verdict?
I never get bloody asked, it's not fair!

Have you noticed the other hospital beds have moved slowly away from you= ?

I have the world's oldest typewriter - it prints in pencil
I thought if that happened the jury went to another trial. In the UK I think you're taken for "at least x days, or more if the trial hasn't finished".
Not that bad, although it could add up to quite a lot in an afternoon's shooting.
I didn't think they were that expensive!
I wouldn't mind a medical malpractice suit, as long as there weren't gory details of blood, or I'd pass out.
