Check Schaffer Supply in Dover

If you can afford it, STI is primo and customer service is second to none.

Put me down for 1,000 SWC, 200 gr. in .45 ACP.

You're pretty much on the money Maks. But if I was reloading rifle like 30-06 and 222 I'd stick with a single stage press since the reloading process is alot more QC intensive. RCBS makes a Rockchucker kit that's pretty comprhensive. And BTW the Rockchucker is an "O" press and super tough.

Cool..... enjoy! We doing Hercules or Sparta on Sunday? Most likely. It's supposed to be a nice weekend. Frank, Why will it be more crowded that usual? Aren't you goyim supposed to spend the entire day in church? I'm thinking somewhere around 11 or noon. Ken: Were you referring to us non-observent goyim? Being that a lot of peeps are off I was thinking 8-9am

Hey you Chosen Ones! It's OK that you take off the Christian Holidays. Jews are like Christians "Lite" anyway. Jesus was a Jew so I think you should be off on Good Friday. Ken If you're going up to CR on Friday, what time? It's going to be crowded. I'll meet you if you go EARY!!!

Remove the slide, remove the sight. On a padded surface hold the slide and give one of the inside edges of the dovetail a little tap w/ the brass punch. You just want to push that edge down a little. Replace the sight. The problem is the after market sight has a slightly undersized male dovetail. Now "Red" permanent Loocktite may get you by without tapping the dovetail. Your choice. A nice set brass puches is nice to have and should do the trick. FS

OK let's look at the variables. Air space in the case? Were they using the same cases? Different case volumns? Different test barrels? Don't get crazy... Start at the lowest level and work up. Understand these Recipies are not a "how too" absolute. They are a guide and starting point. You need to watch for pressure signs and spend a $100 and buy a chrono. It will open your eyes, it did for me. If you want me to chrono your stuff let me know.

+1 Mark-- It's not the arrow, It's all about the Indian...

Zeenon-looks like your doing well, you're very methodical which is good. What I like to do with rifle cartridges is: Keep all critical demensions the same and, go up 1/2 gr at a time and of course stop short of Max load. Load 5 rounds at each loading. Fire the lightest 5 first but after even the first shot inspect for signs of pressure, inspect all cases for pressure. Fire the next five the same way,and continue with the rest. Check your groups. Settle on a load that fuctions well in your rifle, gives you nice groups and gives you a velocity that you're happy with. Now if you want to chrono, I have a standing offer that I'll chrono for the forum. You'll have Loads of fun and satisfaction in your work.

Kimber,my wife, and I attended Mike's USPSA class at Shongum today. I can't say enough good things about the experience. Kim felt totally comfortable in a situation that had intimidated her previously. I got in some good range time and picked up some tips. Thanks Mike and those that helped put this together. Everyone was personable and helpful. Dan, Ken, Daniel and Martin attended as well and it was good to see them. Thanks folks, Frank

Where's rscalzo? I need to know why this wasn't a federal case? I would think it should be. This bozo should swing #1 for breaking the law, #2 for being stupid.

I've always thought large breast were "the bomb"! :oops: Really though, a full body scan would pick it up I think. As a people we are too civilized to deal with this in the way it needs to be dealt with.

CSJ's gun would make a fine trap gun and is priced right.

Sorry I was so callous. Congrats on the little one! Now our buds all gave you good advice but if that or any of the guns were submerged You have to get them in water diplacing oil, period. You don't want your fire control parts that you can't see rusting.

Immediately get it into a bath of WD40. It is a water displacing oil. It will get rid of all the water and halt any further rusting. You may want contact your insurance company if applicable. A detail strip and clean is all you can hope for at this point. Other than cosmetic damage I cant see why it wouldn't be serviceable. Oh take the grips off before the bath. You might want to give the other pistols the same treatment. Sorry fo your situation. Give me a PM and maybe I can help.

rscalzo for President

I know a cardiologist. Yet I'm not competent to judge his capabilities. And yet you managed to duck the question. You "know" people. Do you have first hand experience with teachers that you are quick to categorize? Or like so many simply think you have the answers and mimic what you read on the internet. How would you "know" what thy are capable of when you have no connection to their teaching ability? So what is it? Do you have dealing with teachers through children in your local school system or it it a guess? rscalzo- I have a Masters in Ed and don't teach so I can be objective. Now what do you want to talk about. Matt Has been through the public school system recently, has been and still is a student. What makes him better qualified to comment on the system and it's teachers? You'll defend ineffective public servants any chance you can. I've read you posts. As far as good school systems boosting property values, I quess you still own some Secaucus real estate. Very self serving and nothing to do with education. And if you vote in Jersey I bet you vote down the school budget in fear that it would raise your taxes. Bring it on!

And I thought our new male puppy was bad...

I knew you'd find your way into this one. The man with the answer to EVERYTHING under the sun. It's not a stereotype, it's first hand knowledge. I know people who are just starting out and I know people who have been teaching for years. And on a whole the teachers who have 30+ years in don't give a crap. They teach the same lesson plan they have been teaching for the past 20 years with barely any changes in it. I also know a lot of teachers who just plan ole hate their job and can't wait for retirement because they are tired of teaching to "the test" And usually Stereotypes are made because it's usually true! Matty- put your hand out...I have to slap your wrist. You better be nice to the old Secaucus cop. You're on the money with your opinion though about the whiners! Back to lurking...Frank

Eddie-How about some info on Jim's?

How does it shoot? You may want to keep that stock. I hope the price saving for the cheaper stock was passed on to you. IMHO you can't blame the retailer. And, Remington always has a disclaimer about subject to specification changes. Please don't put too much credance in internet drivel. Shoot it enjoy it and see how it shoots. How does the bedding look? Sorry you're unhappy and hope it works out as a good shooter.

Check out http://www.jsesurplus.com/index.aspx. You can mix and match and the prices are decent.

Based on XDJohnTact's account you may want to rethink this.

Shouldn't they stay in their homes and defend them?
