Chuck Hawks reference removed[edit]

Chuck Hawks reference removed - the link led to a password protected site that is completely unusable, and thus of no relevance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.108.167.200 (talk) 19:56, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chuck Hawks reference removed - the link led to a password protected site that is completely unusable, and thus of no relevance.

I put the reference back. The rule for external links is not password sites. This is not the rule for sources. Many times a source quoted cannot be reached directly, for example an out-of-print book. This does not mean the source cannot be used. If you remove the source, you take a factual statement with a reference, and turn it into an unreferenced statement. If you have a better source, feel free to add/replace, but don't simply remove sources. Arthurrh 20:05, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Hot rodding"[edit]

A sentence in the intro describes how handloads can achieve higher velocities, but just a few paragraphs later, another sentence says this practice is unacceptably dangerous. One or the other ought to go. 67.170.198.151 (talk) 23:33, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dead link[edit]

During several automated bot runs the following external link was found to be unavailable. Please check if the link is in fact down and fix or remove it in that case!
