How many of you, like me, use obscure cartridges for pin numbers??

    There are a lot of memorable four-letter words you can spell on a phone-style keypad. Just sayin'

    Such as ... 3825 Joe Biden

    My favorite non number password was one my son did. This was several years ago, the pass word is long gone but I loved his sentiment!!

    He was 18 or 19 and he had bought something online. When he went to pay for the item he found out they only took paypal. He was not happy but he wanted the item so he set up a paypal account. Paypal didn't like any of his passwords for strange reasons neither of us could figure out. paypal finally accepted "uppaypalsass2"!! 😂🤣

    Forgemonkey, how does a 25-25 Stevens compare to a 25-35?? Do you have a 25-25?? Your opinion on its use as an under 100 yards hunting round??

    I love the romantic aura of these old cartridges but, except for the 45-70, I have never gotten into hunting with these dinosaurs.

    Do you need a four digit pin number?? One that you can remember?? Do you do as I do??

    32-32. 32-40. 38-40. 30-06. 45-70. 50-90. 25-20. 38-55. You get my drift. These numbers all make sense to me. There are several in this list that are favorites of mine. That makes for an easy to remember pin number. I rarely forget a pin number, like I said, these numbers make sense to me. No problem remembering them.

    I wish I could say no problem remembering a lot of other things!! 😂

    Yes

    My shooting club range uses an old brass combo padlock on the front gate to get in or out. Old one with the numbers on reels on the bottom of the lock. Each month the combo is changed to various calibers like above. Paying members get monthly news letters with the current combination listed.

    I do. I think it's because of familiarity with the numbers and a lack of imagination for other number groups. I'm smart enough not to use a phone number.

    Dreher, yes I have a .25-25 Stevens in excellent condition. It shoots better then my ol’ eyes at 100yds. with open sights. I had to have the brass/dies custom made and cast bullets are available. I have no experience with the .25-35.

    I’ve read that others have had trouble with extraction in the .25-25 but I’ve experienced no such trouble. It’s a fun little rifle.

    Use patterns on the keyboard. The resulting password is impossible to remember, but the pattern is easy to remember. Like this one:

    Bgt5^yhnMju7*ik,

    Simple pattern. Or go sideways, or go up and down, alternate rows, whatever you like. Here's another:

    Q@q2W#w3E$e4R%r5

    Type it out and you'll see the pattern immediately.

    I am so damn tired of passwords. Even at the point where if I am going to buy something online and an account is requested, I go somewhere else where I can purchase as a guest.

    Every password is a window into your soul, your mind, and eventually, your bank account.

    I was unemployed for a short time and had to check in at the unemployment office each week.

    Their phone number was 357-3030


    Still remember it all these years later.

    Use Biden's approval ratings

    45

    38

    34

    27

    When it gets to zero, start over.
