    Picking up a Beretta A400 - 20Ga for my wife next weekend and wanted to have some ammo on hand to shoot right away.  Since this is a SA, does anyone know if it is sensitive to any type of ammo?  

    Don't want to pick up a case and find it won't cycle.

     

    Thanks

    I have one in .17HMR and love it.  I only had it out a couple of times, added a Nikon Rimfire scope, and it shoots great.  Sighted it in at 50 yards and have taken it out to 200 so far.  The gun is more accurate than I am.

    I work in cancer research and while there may not be a 100% viable cure we are getting pretty close with some of the immuno-therapies.  We are seeing more and more indications either cured or partially cured based on certain protein expressions.  The next 5-10 years will see some very promising breakthroughs in most if not all cancer indications.

    A belated but quick update.

    They actually played the game at a field a couple miles away from St Peter's and we ended up at a local dive bar called O'Leary's Publik House.  It was a local place, with some very good IPAs on tap and the bar food was excellent.  Ended up having 25 or so of us there for the pregame.

    What type of food you looking for? My brother lives in JC and is somewhat of a "foodie"

    Anything really, just a decent meal and a cold beer before a football game.  I do like a good IPA though, and am good with anything from a good burger, pizza, steak.  I am not picky at all!

    Love that shrimp cocktail!  I also hit up Harry & Izzy's for it.... and at the Indy Airport when I was leaving...

    Completely agree, the shrimp cocktail is outstanding.  I believe Harry & Izzy's is somehow affiliated with St. Elmos, I also though that Payton Manning was part owner at one time, not sure if that was true or not.

    Can anyone recommend where I could go to have a bunch of older VHS, VHS Mini and possibly other format tapes transferred to a couple of DVDs?

    We have a bunch of old tapes from several cameras that I would like to have transferred to a couple of DVDs, looking for it as a Christmas present for my wife.

     

    Thanks!

     

    I am located in Central Jersey near NJTPK Exit 8

    Just to add, the majority of issues with steel case ammo is with semi-autos which have issues extracting the spent case.   Sometimes feeding issues of new rounds.

    Depending on how it is coated, it may get stuck in the chamber.

    There is also the difference between steel case and aluminum case.  I have generally had ZERO issues with aluminum cased ammo.

    Just curious, from a metallurgical perspective, would aluminum and brass extract better, at least in part due to better and faster heat transfer coefficients than steel?  Thinking that they may cool down quicker especially if heat synced by the surrounding barrel and then shrink slightly which would allow easier extraction.

    Of course this may not be even remotely close to what actually happens.
