That's 125 gpm. Do you have a fire hydrant running off your meter?

Sorry for your loss. A good dog will make you realize how shitty humans can be. My Dogs haven't crossed the rainbow bridge yet, because the poem goes:

On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day...
Together again, both person and pet...
And then, side-by-side, they cross over together.

I'm sure your dog will wait for you to cross that bridge together.

Why would it have more failure to cycles than any other rimfire pistol?
It's for a residential home. I wasn't allowed to request another appraiser, so I submitted a rather lengthy 60 page ROV with RMS's and pictures. The lender said everything had to fit on their 3 page form. The appraisal was so bad that it was impossible to limit it to a few paragraphs without watering it down. Things like no water source for one comparable property that relied on hauling water. Mind you, lenders require you to have a permanent water source in this area. I have a proven high yield well at 550ft deep, and there's a good chance you won't hit water at all in this area, so that's a huge risk a buyer would take on this "comparable property". That's just a small example of what the appaiser left out. I told them to go to hell and found another lender.

White's is owned by Lacrosse which is owned by a Japanese publicly traded corporation.

I'm not sure about this one. You usually want the hole a little deeper than the anchor to collect the remaining dust that's left from filling voids between the anchor and brick/concrete. I've had success both ways and failers both ways. One thing I've found helps is some anchoring epoxy squirted in each hole.

Whites are another victim of corporate acquisitions. They absolutely suck for the money now. Just look into their employee turnaround numbers. Ain't nobody working there long enough to claim boot making skills.
Redwings still has Loggers made in U.S. and another model made in Chiyna or somewhere overseas. The U.S. ones are about $100 more.

Redwings is another company that Warren Buffet destroyed. The ones still made in the U.S. are ok but not what they used to be.

Appraiser did me dirty. ROV is being submitted and was wondering what other people's experiences were with these. Seems like bullshite that I have to do this guy's work and don't even get a refund if he's proven wrong.

Slow down Speedracer. Enough to stand by what I said, and more through factory calibrated equipment than you've ever came across in your life. You don't know my background, so suck up the facts.
Standard velocity was the original 40gr loading for 22lr. Then they came up with high velocity, which can be more reliable in certain firearms because of the extra blowback pressure. Fast forward to supressors being common, and it was quickly realized that standard is quieter, so simply mark them as subsonic and charge a premium for less. Before people paid extra for high velocity. Now they pay more extra for subsonic, which is simply standard velocity.
Think of light beer vs real beer.

Things labeled subsonic may not. Typically because they are under loaded for suppressor use.


Nah, it's marketing hype to charge a premium.

Now you get it.
Well, instead of saurkraut over a hotdog on a bun, it's hotdog slices smothered in sauerkraut and put over rice. Actually not much difference other than rice vs bread.

Sauerkraut and hot dogs over rice...

Was this a thing in anyone else's family? The old timers in my family that grew up during the great depression made it weekly when I was growing up. I still make it and was thinking of how cheap it is to make, yet tastes better and fills the stomach more than 90% of anything else I can think of.

Rent one and do the work yourself. Cheaper and no one to pay to do a bad job.
