Thanks to wildblue's internet service sucking big time, they cut off certain sites and this one was one of them. Been almost 2 weeks and our bandwidth went from 97% down to 92%
Just enough to load this site today. Hughes Net comes monday and seem to offer better service including unlimited bandwidth from 12am to 5am so thats a good thing as i am a night owl LOL.
But ive been doing testing and such with some stuff and its been pretty darn interesting to say the least!
Its amazing with a bore cot will do to your rifles accuracy.
Also tested those NSI primers and they suck with blackhorn209, work great with IMR White Hots but thats IT. Accuracy with T7, pryrodex, Blackhorn has been horrible and so thats the last time im buyin them.
I'll have to wait until tuesday and then upload all the pictures and info.

I also run Wild Blue and this site would not open using Mozilla but it did open with Google Chrome. So I tested your theory of Wild Blue and sure enough, it opened tonight with Mozilla.
You might want to be careful with Hughes Net. My frineds had that and were constantly being shut down. They have limits (at least they used to) on the amount you can download and upload in a certain time frame.

Dave, They have limits of 250 and 300 Megabits for the day. If you go over that, they slow it down to 56k speed. But come 12am, they reset that where as with wildblue, the only way to decrease your usage % is by unplugging it and finding something else to do with your time. It does not drop off fast enough. $80 a month and 2 weeks we had it darn near shut down and bandwidth only dropped around 5%.
I still cant figure out why Satellite costs 2 to 3 times as much as DSL when you have restrictions on how much you can down load - upload!
We got the 300 MB package which will be good enough. I mainly do most of my posting late at night when im wide awake so that works out for me and mostly will be during the free speed time.

MD....One thing good about living in big cities is unlimited mb's...heck most peoples phones have wifi and data packages. So clean air...no traffic..and low crime rates are overrated...give me unlimited data that's what's important.
