ah, so it is like the RCBS lock out... just minus the lock out feature.

Wait, so how does the hornady powder cop die work? Not the same as the lock out?

Using the RCBS lock out die. Matt, had absolutely none through the thousands of rounds through the classic turret. The few I had were on the LnL, and mainly from the fact that you have so much going on at the same time. Obviously, if you visually check every case, the amount goes down, however you are also slowing down the cyclic rate. Using the Lock out Die, you can speed that up. Hit about 350 rounds an hour with case feeder today.

Wait... how much does it cost to do a caliber changeover? Doesnt the press come with everythng you need for both large and small, minus the dies?

How did I ever load without it? While it was not really necessary on the turret press, totally needed on the progressives. Saved me from 3 squibs today. First one I stood up to unjam the case feeder, did not cycle the press to drop powder. Other two times, I noticed myself after taking out stubborn brass.

Loaded another 501 rounds today in about 2 hours, including breaks to clean the press. =P

yep, the press came with that DVD, as well as online. I have not dealt with Hornady in the past, as I only got this press about 6 months ago, however when I was having "user" issues, and parts that I broke, they prompty sent me new stuff. The few reps I talked with, all seemed quite knowledgeable.

Welcome

Nah, just have an extra day to reload. =P I knew the flight was the 15th... I just thought that was tomorrow.

Me! So I go online to check in for my tomorrow's flight to Vegas for USPSA Nationals.... and "Sorry, confirmation not found" I login to my account to check reservations... 9/15/2011. Flying out Thursday. Ooops. The troubling thing... I did this sort of thing before... in Ukraine... my flight back was a day later than what I thought. Spent a day in Kiev.

What city are you in?

92fs is given the choice of two, although the px4 has some very nice features, such as rotating barrel. However, two issues already, 1. Your PD is holding the permit for you for 30 days? Not their job to do that. It is your job to know the 30 days. Go there, pick it up now, and go apply for another 4 or 5. Contact NJ2AS so they can get this PD fixed. What township is this? Secondly, you can buy the gun anyhwere, however you can only pick it up from a NJ Dealer. So if you buy it out of state, say in PA, they will have to transfer it to a local NJ dealer, where you pay NICS/Transfer, so you are not saving yourself anything. Use the NJGF price request feature, let the dealers know what you want, and they will come to you.

Will do a video of me loading for a certain match in a few days... to see exactly how much I can get done. Right now the press is setup with the case feeder and Lee Dies and powder measure. Station 1 - Resizer/deprime. Station 2 - Lee Powder Through Expander Station 3 - RCBS Powder Lock out Die (just installed properly) (will stop the press if too much or too little powder in case, prevents double charges and squibs. Station 4 - Seating/Crimp (just set to seat) Station 5 - Lee Factory Crimp Die (performs two things, puts a very light crimp on the bullet, but most of all, post sizes the case to get rid of any bulges). When I originally got the press, it came with a set of RCBS dies, without factory crimp die, or powder through expander. Without powder through expander, you have an extra station taking up, so it means you either give up the powder lock out die, or the separate crimp die. Furthermore, RCBS did not do a good job of taking out the bulge of the 40 cal, and why had to use a redding undersize die. As a result, a good amount of cases would be a little hard to put fully into the chamber (just testing it in the chamber), but would go under pressure of slide smacking it in. Lee dies do 100% job with it, at least in 40 cal, and out of the 3k or so rounds I reloaded with them on, including a factory crimp die, not one round that was loaded, did not drop as easily into the chamber as factory ammo. No bulges either.

Great match as always, 4 classifiers and 3 field stages were awesome... thanks Matt for making my stage even more evil. Was awesome to get out at before 3pm, having shot 7 stages. Should do more of these type of matches. Fantastic Value.

What negative things on the LnL? And it is significantly cheaper in reality. Bryan, look on Enos forums and others, I picked up my Lnl with casefeeder, dies, for $525 or so, shipped. http://www.comrace.ca/cmfiles/dillonLeeHornadyComparison.pdf

It is a fantastic firearm for a great price. Felt very solid when I played with it at the Shot Show. SAR has been making firearms for a while and seem solid. Going with a CZ design is terrific. At the very worst, you will be able to resell it. a 14+1 in that slim of a package, makes it a winner.

Bryan, I have the Lnl with Case feeder. works well. The priming system is ok, and works the same as others. To seat the primers well, you need to make sure the seating plunger is screwed in all the way, mine was loose when I got the press and caused my issues.

And that is what counts. =)

If you are in the princeton area, drop by my office, will be glad to do it.

Oh come on, did you have Fun? If yes... end of story. This is not nationals or anything, you are shooting Zombies for crying out loud. =P It does suck though that all the ROs were not on the same page. When is Old Bridge 3 gun? October? Ronny?

Enjoy her Shane. woot woot, great looking bike. =)

Welcome to the forum. Grouping will depend on a number of factors, including gun type, ammo type, and how you are shooting it, off of a rest, etc. however... by far the biggest detriment to gun accuracy is usually the guy behind the firearm. =) Most guns are far more accurate than we can shoot them. at 10 to 15 yards, no reason why you can have them all touching with a handgun, and with a rifle, should be one hole if the shooter is doing his job. =)

Might as well. More guns, less $.99 cent store items. =) Rick and the guys at Eagle run a fantastic no BS show!

give me a few. =P

um.... we will be glad to help you learn to reload, however buying someone else's reloads is a very finite grey area, nevermind the fact that if something goes bang/kaboom, you will have little reprocutions. The other choice, Georgia Arms, Precision Delta do sell reloaded ammo, and are proven in the field. Buying a local person's reloads. Don't get me wrong, I would have no hesitation to shoot reloads from a person I know and trust... however keep in mind, every gun is different, and what works in one, will not be the same as in someone elses.
