Sigman

There are no restrictions as far as buying them. There are hunting regulations using them.

Greetings - you may want to apply for your FID anyway. Rimfire .22 are fun to shoot if you're not interested in higher caliber guns.

I'm all for this except the part life in jail. Tax payers should not pay room and board for a psycho. I say death penalty and destroy the genes. Is that too harsh?

OK - I'm +2 on 231 or HP38. It burns nice and you'll be able to spot a double charge easily. It also meters well in my RCBS powder measure. Bullseye metered like crap in my powder measure. I would say 4.4gr HP38 (231) with a col of 1.125. This is through a 92FS

Is the press itself rocking (non sturdy mount) or the table top flexing? If it's the table top, throw another 3/4" top on. You may need to mount the press to a section of 2 x 8 or 2 x 10, then mount that to the table. If you have a steel plate, use that. I have a heavy duty bench with 2 layers of 3/4" ply, My press is then mounted to a section of 2 x 8 bolted to the top of the bench. This works pretty well.

I just remove the bell from the case for pistol 9mm, 40S&W and 45ACP. Measure the case with calipers around the bullet after it is seated. Adjust the Lee FCD in small increments to remove the bell. Measure the crimp with calipers after each adjustment. You don't want the case to dig into the jacket from the crimp. These calibers use a taper crimp which is different from a revolver roll crimp. A taper crimp is only to remove the crimp, not hold the bullet. The bullet is held in place by the pressure from the sized case. The case should basically measure the same all the way up along side of the bullet to the case mouth.

I would hope that NJ gun owners are just as responsible as anyone else in a US CCW state. The libs in this state will fight against anything pro gun. It doesn't matter the cause. We are not children and don't deserve to be treated as such by our socialist state representatives. I say give us CCW and then fight them in court if they try to take it away. Anyone not following the law should be charged accordingly. We have to get away from the liberal socialist thinking that this state has endured for years. This state is not like the rest of America. We don't need to prove anything - just give us our rights. I have the opposite opinion that we are moving too slow. We are one of the few states that don't have CCW. Why not? Do we really need our government to treat us like children? Are we really less responsible than TN or FL folks?

I know you're talking about a different vendor, but Cabela's hazmat is 20.00 for the entire order. It doesn't matter if it's in stock or not. I just ordered a bunch or powder and primers and one was out of stock. I received 3 boxes over a several day span. The only problem is Cabela's doesn't ship powders or primers to NJ. I have it shipped to NYC of all places. I usually buy when the stuff is on sale and free shipping.

I'm pretty sure I saw a couple in Bullet Hole last week. I think one was used.

Great post. Socialists are close to being walking zombies.

I use the plastic ammo boxes from Cabela's or Berry's and small heavy duty zip bags. I can fit 50 to 100 rounds of 9mm in the small bags. The bags store easily.

I've tried some 200gr LSWC and found they don't feed as smoothly as RN. I'm using a Col of 1.235. I had a couple out of 150 get stuck halfway feeding into the chamber. Does anyone think a shorter or longer Col would help smooth the feeding? These were shot with a Springfield Trophy Match. My LRN with col of 1.245 feed smooth as silk and are 100% reliable. I would stick with the RN, but the LSWC shoot accurate and make perfect holes in paper.

I'm not a fan of the fish scales either. I also don't like a rail on a 1911. FWIW, I have a Springfield Trophy Match which has been 100% reliable. I hear excellent reports about Springfield's CS although I haven't had to use it. I don't have experience with S&W 1911's, but everyone seems to be happy with them.

You do realize what this story is about, don't you? It's MSNBC's attemp to get their anti-gun agenda out. They want to point out how Glock's go off by themselves, injure people and how a small child can grab a Glock and injure someone. We all know better than that, but what happens when this crap gets spread over the internet and the ignorant public reads it. "Oh - Glocks must be dangerous because they go off by themselves." When was the last time MSNBC printed a story about an armed law abiding citizen protecting his family from a criminal entering his house. The only place I read this is in a NRA magazine. The liberal media has one agenda - a gun smear campaign. Let me know next time MSNBC puts out anything pro gun. MSNBC is another liberal minded group falling off the ratings chart. Hopefully, they'll wither away soon.

I shoot a Sig 226 and shoot a lot of Hogdon HP38 which is the same as 231. 4.1 gr is a light load. You should probably be around 4.8 to 5gr of 231 for 115 FMJ. I'm using 4.4gr with a 124gr FMJ and 4.2gr for 124gr. LRN. Check out the Hogdon load chart for a list of load data

Great to hear about their customer support. I like the Lee pistol 4 die sets a lot. Have you tried these? They come with the factory crimp die. I like using one die to seat bullets and another to crimp. Excellent dies for the price.

Fantastic shooting and great story.

I believe you need to be on private property (no WMA's) to use a .22 for woodchuck. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I use this in a GSG-5 and Walther P22. Shoots great, no problems.

It sounds like another liberal attemp to discourage firarms purchase. $15 per gun registration fee with a $10.00 renewal. It's truely amazing that these idiots get elected to office.

Happy B-day my friend!

I have it in .40 S&W. Very good shooter.

Matt I was checking out a model 60 Pro series recently and it's a sweet gun. I've been looking at this for a while. I would go for the pro series over the regular model. Have you looked for a used model 60 Pro series? I think I saw one at Bullet Hole a couple of nights ago.

Ray - what Sig has you thinking?

Heading down to BH tonight if anyone wants to join. I have a couple of co-workers wanting to go. I should be there around 6:30.
