that happens to me when the imagine file is too large.. try reducing the image size qoute a bit if its a higher resolution image.

Sure is! Ive been sitting on a pile of components and a lyman turrret press for over a year, waiting to finally start making up my own ammo. A few weeks ago i dived in and knew 38 special was the easiest, and safest, since i would be shooting it in my S&W 686 .357 revolver.. I would have been hard pressed to screw up enough on 38 special to cuase pressures the 357 wouldnt handle. Everything went fine. I had some random bullets to use up from some box lot auction buys. Loaded up a few dozen full wad cutters, flush with the rim, sitting on 2.8gr of bullseye. Shot wonderfully and very accurate at 20 yards or so. Ive since moved on to 45 acp. A little hickup in my seating and crimp the first try, but looks like i have it worked out now.

Call and check cheyenne moutain in Bordentown.. i saw .22, 9mm, .223., 308, etc yesterday when i was in there. Didnt specifically noticed any 38 special, but might be worth checking.. ps. even had a box of LRP magnum.. and a few bricks of 209 shotty primers... And some anderson stripped lowers...

Trying this now... Is that 'bitmart' or bitsmart? App store has a bitmart

As KC17 posted above; and all spot on great info.. I was also a member of Range-14 and i too let my membership expire this past January.. It just wasnt for me. The odd hours and days never fit my schedule.. And honestly, its really no cheaper in the end, other then the one time 600$ capital contribution fee. I would take my two kids with the range 14 for two hours. Thats 30$.. Do that a handful of times a year, plus the 90$ annual fee, and you'll be at at least 300$ a year.. At this point, you would be lucky to get in CJRPC until July or August.. With the prorated membership dues, you looking somewhere around 725$.. Hell, sell a case of ammo and your in.. Or apply those Biden bucks to it.. Theres plenty of credit oppurtunities at CJRPC. Get involved and be active, and you could damn near be in for free each year.. If you ever want to just take a drive through and check it out, let me know. Im only 15 mins from there..

@rifleman Id love too.. Mind if i PM you right before i know i that i have a free Thursday evening? I would appreciate to meet up with you there so you could show me the ropes over on the skeet/trap side of the club.. I'll admit, my only skeet/trap experience is informal stuff with friends at either the WMA ranges or some farmer friends back field.. No fancy trap gun, just my hunting 12 guages.. And im doing good when i actually hit more than i miss... Ron

Thanks, and it surely is a great range. Just got home from there as we speak.

well I did hint that it never goes as far as you think..

@10X Somehow i missed this reply last year! Anyway, i would definitely be interested, but i rarely find my way up that way.. If i do, i'll reach out and see if its still available. Thx

Stone never seems to go as far as you think.. formula is 1 ton of stone will do a 100 sq. foot area (think 10'x10') at 2" deep. I would suggest 3/4" blend stone. Also known as DGA. It has 3/4" and smaller in it, and it packs much tighter than 3/4" clean. Firmer driveway, and people not spinning tires and flinging stone all over. 3/4" blend is the typical, commonly used driveway stone. Cost seems a little high. Call around. Or even check with a owner/operator. Any neighbors in the neighborhood that drive their own dump truck? They will usually stop and grab a load right from the quarry at the end of the day. Easy money for them, since they are driving home anyway. My last full load was done that way. $550 for 25 tons delivered. Granted, that was 15 years ago since i last needed a full load. Things have surely gone up since then. getting the driver to spread as he goes will depend on the individual driver.. Nice friendly driver; he can short chain the tailgate so it only opens a foot or so, and slowly drive ahead. Only if the overhead is clear of any obstructions... Miserable old fck of a driver; he'll just grunt at you and dump it in a pile and leave.. Good driver and does a nice spread; def throw him a 20.. As the others have said, GAF Timberline shingles. Pretty much the standard go to now a days.. Barely save anything going with old 3 tab shingles. Def get the vent put up through before the roof is done; or a the same time. If you have attic access, then talk to the roofer. He could drill the hole and attach the roof jack (vent) while he is shingling. You could go in the attic at a later date and make the vent pipe connection at your leasure. HTH

I agree... I dont see what the WIN is about??? Its only a win, if the E-FID is valid and available the instant the online FARS is complete. As in, not waiting on the local PD to do their thing, and the chief to sign/approve it like the paper version.. If this is what they mean by a victory, then great. People would have their FID in a matter of days, not months.. But i highly doubt this to be the case. The E-pistol permits still need the local PD to sign off and issue, so im sure its the same thing with E-FID....

being this one is nearly a 1/4 mile long itself, i would speculate this needs a lot more than a mile to make a u-turn under its own power..

either way i think its a bad deal for Discord users.. if Microsoft buys, you can kiss you guns and ammo discussion/sales goodbye.. Same if they go public.. the investors, directors, etc will all be woke just like every other popular tech or media outlet. Discord has been a little bit off the beaten path of the typical mainstream online user.. that wont be the case in the future

GPP Thats 'Gone Pending Pickup"

Im a remodeling contractor and i just demo'd a customers kitchen. The cabinets were only about 10-12 years old. A couple of the bases i had to break down and toss just to get them out. But theres a few good base cabinets including a corner lazy susan. I have 6 of the upper cabinets. 21"w X 42"h These have glass front doors so you can see whats in them without opening. These are standard depth and height kitchen cabinets. Put a strong top on and you have a great work bench with lots of storage. FREE - Before i smash em up and dumpster them.. PM me if your interested, i can send some pics if need be.. Located in 08562 zip code.

Hope to see you there and shoot together sometime soon Dave! Say when! I need some shooting partners to show me around there and keep my encouragement up to get there often!

Yea, i changed the home range in my profile same night after orientation. I did feel a little guilty doing that and leaving Range-14. But i rarely ever went while a member of range14. The restricted hours, and the time limits, etc, just didnt work for me. Range-14 is always touted as being cheap and affordable. But honestly, that really doesnt work out to be very true.. Its 90$ a year now. and 5$ an hour per person. When i would take myself and the two teenage boys for 2 hours, thats 30$. So just joining and going once, your at 120$. If i was two go 7 times a year with my boys, that would be 300$ total for the year. Same price as the annual dues at CJRPC.. You cant compare the two facilities, CJRPC is in a league of its own. There are work hour oppurtunities and other ways to reduce your 300$ a year membership. Get involved enough and you could probably get yourself in for free each year. The 600$ one time capital fee is the big one. Get through that and its pretty easy sailing after that.. I considered selling a case of my factory ammo just to offset this initial cost. Looks like i dont have too and can absorb the fee this month.. Range 14 was 5 minutes from my house, and CJRPC is about 15 minutes. Definitely not right down the road like Range14, but well worth the little further drive. Guess im lucky to be located so conveniently to either of them..

Thanks! Looking forward to shooting more in the near future.. Was a member at Range14 but could never find the time in their limited open hours. This should work with my busy schedule much better.... if now only ammo would come back to fiscal reality.. I ended up going Glock boy.. Took the model 22 (.40 s&w).. the little Springfield XDs is a little tough for me to efficiently and quickly manipulate with the thick hands i got.. The full size Glock is just simple and second nature..

Im in! An official CJRPC member now... Time to get this press churning out some ammo so i can actually shoot and not feel too guilty for using ammo durin gthe high price/high demand times were in...

Ill gladly be your backup on those sick fucks.. Glad shes is in a loving and caring home now. It wont be long before she realizes how fortunate she now is..

Sure is tempting dave! Have to look and see if i have any .38 rounds laying around.. No sense in belching fire and scaring the newbies with some hot .357 loads... May have been more fun if i had picked up the DW .44 from you!

Thanks kev for the detailed info! And glad its in this thread as it may be a benefit to someone else in the future. Cant imagine someone could be that stupid or clueless to walk up with a loaded gun, like 'im here and ready'.. WTF.. Im confident in my gun handling and etiquette. Been a gun owner, shooter, and hunter for 30 years now. My biggest dilemma is what gun to bring! My .22 handgun, a saturday night special phoenix arms HP22 has been acting up, so thats out.. Could bring the glock .40 but dont want to look like one of those new Glock boys.. lol Probably just bring the little XDs 9mm.. But for simplicity sake, could always bring my first love, the stainless S&W 686. But that may look like im trying to compensate for something like the guys with the big ol' lifted diesel trucks..

Actually, his email just asked if i was interested in that spot.. i replied Yes, and then asked what time tuesday and what i need to bring. Still waiting on that reply. i assume i'll hear back tommorrow sometime... I may reach out to you just to get the run down of what to expect. Then id love to get together with some one when i make my first real shoting trip there.

Emailed CJRPC yesterday; got an email this morning from the VP who's the one in charge of new membership. There was one cancellation for the new membership orientation this tuesday, so looks like ill be attending that spot on tuesday! Pretty excited... Just nervous thinking i dont want to start waste ammo in these times we are in!

Thanks Kev. I just fired off another email. See if i hear back... Ive known John's daughter for nearly 30 years. Spoke with him a time or two, and he lives about a half mile away from me. But didnt want to go that route if not neccassary.. With ammo prices the way they are, i probably wont want to shoot much anyways! lol
