 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Neat!  Caught me by surprise since the last post I read was about bow tips! :fp!  Got a green one and a red one, now you need a blue one, and a yellow one, and we can sing a song that I think either Pete Seeger or Woody Gutherie wrote!  That would be nice on our prize table at a Shoot!

I know the song you are thinking of Jerry and it was written by Malvina Reynolds. Pete Seeger recorded it...  ;)

Eddie, do you have a particular hole diameter and depth for each grain measurement?

Pat, with these I just drilled and ground as deep and then as I could go. The next ones and the ones I turn on the lathe I will have it all pre- measured before I drill them.
