Really it is good advice. I spent way to much time dealing with clogs in my grinder before I learned that secret.

It's not from being old. My father was a butcher. I knew it as a kid. As a matter of fact, he also taught quackhead to butcher and wrap. Pretty likely my son knew that before he knew how to gut an animal.
For the record, I never said anyone knew it all. That's been your line or, rather, accusation.

Flint, I gotta warn you those aren't very good and won't last. The cover on the gears pops off too easy. The locking mechanism can't be trusted and you need to keep an eye on fasteners that tend to come loose.
The crank handle in particular.
I have one on my other trailer and wish I didn't. A good one ain't cheap.

Thought Reese was a good brand for trailer/towing stuff.... Same one thats on my neighbors nice trailer that his gator trax sits on. Boat weighs a hell of a lot more than mine too.

McMillin trailers don't use that shirt Reece stuff. I looked up a replacement wheel for my jack and the whole thing was almost $200. The one on your neighbors trailer must be a replacement.

Bought a pound of Winchester AA handicap powder to try in 45acp, and two boxes of federal 22.

We shall see if I can blow my gun and hand up experimenting with shotgun powder in a metallic cartridge. I have found very little info on it in 45 but the burn rates seem ok.....

I have found a few sources of info and successful recipes. I will take a TON o precaution and start very very mild with the charge. Maybe Rex, Dan, or onetoomany will chime in with some advice.

I'd hate to lose a friend. Hard to find duck hunter buddies where we live. You know that, right?

That is one of the threads I found that pushed me to buy it. There was a couple on castboolits.com that had great results with this particular powder, so I thought, what the hell.... It's only pneumatics......
