I still laugh every time I see it used.

He is trying to pick his node.

On different reloading forums it's common to read about shooting ladder tests to look for accuracy nodes. There are even low nodes and high nodes.

"Find a node for your rifle".

Haha he said node.

Never ever use/used it in relation to reloading and I been doing that for 50 years. Never heard or read it used in that context either.

Years ago I went to a shooting club here, where some trap shooters were busy in the club workshop trying to modify their shotguns to shoot better.

They were up to all sorts of crazy things.

I told them I shot trap with a field shotgun, and they laughed!

A friend suggested we all go out and try it.

I had a Browning Superposed hunting shotgun, with 3/4 and full chokes.

We shot a round of Internstional trap.

I was the only one who broke 25!!

The looks on their faces was priceless.

My father was watching, and told the others to get rid of their specialized shotguns and practice with normal field guns!
