Just wondering how deep a well is if it takes 9 seconds from the time you drop a quarter in it till the quarter hits water and the sound gets back to you.
Try 9.8x39/12x9=286.5

Don,
I have plenty of different .44 patches with me. I have to reload for the Mt. 1000 plus Alliance and Lodi. I wont be seeing the home place till after Alliance or maybe even Lodi.

If that's feet, that's not too bad. guess we'll know when the well man gets here.
