    I need to ask! Anyone successfully worked a "hunted out site:?

    Seem like the main focus or expectation for the CTX is to be able to go back to those "hunted out sites" we all have. I know some claim that no site is ever hunted out. But we all know that after working a good site for a while, there becomes a time when there seems to be the days that dont...

    Cleaning Clad

    Tried a little something I've been thinking about for a while. Today, I cleaned 1 Gal of clad in about 10 mins. I dipped them in Nitric acid for about 30- 45 secs for each batch. Worked like a champ until the acid got close to saturation with copper, then slowed a little. Used about a quart of...

    Silver Dimes
