Talk:.17 HM2

message: I have shot the cartridge extensively in Montana at prairie dogs at ranges beyond 150 yards with quite accurate results and terminal performance.  I would suggest, but have no concrete data to back it up (such as exactly measured distances, etc.), that the effective range is closer to 250 yards.
Jesusplayedwithwood 15:28, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've shot it at rabbits, and no way would I use it at that distance. I once hit a rabbit with a .17 HMR with it's higher velocity at about 300 yards, and it was not even close to a clean kill. FYI with a BC of .125 at 2100 fps sighted at 100 yards, this would give a drop of 30.4 inches at 250 yards, with energy of just 39 ft/lbs (compared to muzzle energy of 166 ft/lbs) and a 16" wind drift in just a 5 mph wind. Seems like a pretty big stretch to me. Arthurrh 22:40, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  I dispute the "150 yard effective range" 

message: As far as I can tell, nearly all the gun manufacturers have dropped the .17HM2 from their chambering lists.  This is probably due to a) lack of consumer acceptance, since the ammo is almost as expensive as its magnum big brother, and b) technical problems with autoloader bolts and tubular magazines.  Perhaps the Market section should be updated to reflect this.

replies: text: There are 45 locks on the river, and the EA routinely refurbishes several of them each winter. The EA's annual spend on maintaining waterway installations is about £22m per annum. Although the main focus of the article is the lock itself, a description is provided of the stretch of water upstream of it. Each lock looks after this stretch  upstream and has no control over the stretch downstream. This is therefore the appropriate way to structure the information for all the locks so that the picture is complete from Teddington upwards while duplication and inconsistency is avoided. The article is not about the Thames Path nor intended to act as a gazeeer. The path is simply included as one of the features of the upstream reach. The place to chart the route in full is on the Thames Path article and if someone wants to do that then the section details from each of the locks could be used for that purpose. Your contributions in the Shiplake area have been very useful so please don't take it amiss if I have tried to maintain consistency. Note however that Wikipedia is not a newspaper and so latest news should not necessarily be given higher profile. Also, there is a potential problem with updating articles with transitory information as not all editors are as thorough as you have been in keeping the situation updated. Hope that helps.

Talk:Gorge of Eternal Peril

message: This is one of those odd cases where the actor himself publicly announced this upon many occasions, but finding a printed source is evidently not so easy; in the mid-1980's, Graham went on a one-man "speaking tour" in the United States, where he sat on stage and recounted various stories, and the telling of the Bridge of Death scene was one of the highlights of his "lecture" (which I attended at the University of Kansas). He was quite explicit in his description of how terrible the hangover was, and how miserable it was wearing chain mail and being soaked to the skin and freezing cold AND hung over, trying to recite his lines and stand patiently without getting violently ill (as I recall, a wisecrack about the name "Gorge of Eternal Peril" was made at this point, not surprisingly). He emphasized it as the "punch line" was that the filming of this scene was the precise moment when he decided to end what had been several years of increasingly problematic alcohol abuse (though he phrased it a little bit more colorfully), and how his swearing off booze at that moment was probably the only thing that made it possible for him to go through with the film. Given that this same speech was given multiple times at venues throughout the US and elsewhere, surely there must be a transcript somewhere, or an autobiography, in which this appears.

Talk:.243 Winchester

message: Changed "6.2x52mm" and "6.14x51mm" to "6x52mm". First, the .243-diameter bullets are referred to as "6 mm" bullets. Second, this follows the same naming convention as many other cartridges, such as 5.45 (actual diameter 5.6 mm), 5.56 (actual diameter 5.7 mm), 7x57 (actual diameter 7.24 mm), 7.62 (actual diameter 7.82 mm), 8x57 (actual diameter 8.2 mm), etc. There are exceptions, like the 9.3 mm cartridges - but those are referred to as "9.3 mm" whereas .243-diameter bullets have always been referred to as "6 mm". Therefore if an alternative metric designation should be present in the article (arguable) 6x52mm makes the most sense. None of these metric designations are "standard" or commonly used so there is no incentive to stick with "6.2x52" or "6.14x51", etc.

I'm suspicious of this claim because it relies on saying that it's an extreme velocity, but such problems are not occurring with other rifles that have much higher velocities. Also the reference to a 115 grain bullet moving at 3600+ ft/sec being an "acceptable pressure". It'd be good to have a number and a source for that, because from what I can tell, it's not accurate.

Secondly, I will do more research, but in the first two pages I checked I have found information that contradicts statements given in the article about the .244 H&H Magnum using .245" bullets, thereby causing confusion for hand-loaders. The first two pages I read said the .244 H&H Magnum uses the standard .243" bullets.
