Airbag motorcycle Jackets
Orange, glad your OK man.. I just got back from a nice ride, roads pretty much empty, and still some jerk off manages to almost hit me... I never ride with out boots my jacket and gloves... did you have boots on? or sneakers? i'm gonna guess sneakers from the messed up ankle.... i saw a pic of some guys bone sticking out of his ankle and i wont ever ride with out boots now, and he rolled his ankle while stopped and the bike fell on it! dont even have to be moving to get hurt...

Does donating to local PBA help score 'points'
your giving the union money to do with as they please. They're purpose is to serve the Leo's, they can spend money on and sponsor programs but you can just as easily donate money to those same causes with out giving it to the union. I hardly doubt anyone here is donating money to the njea? And yes they donate money to charities and sponsor programs too. They serve the special interest of Leo's, so that is why I don't donate to them. Same reason I bet no one here give the njea any money.

I don't donate to the pba. We already pay for the services. I do however make it a point to drop a nice donation to fire/ems when they are out doing the boot donations, fire house is at the end of my block.

And that's the way it should be blk. I have a lot of close friends who have no Leo in the family yet they have badges and cards from friends or family friends and never get tickets. And they constantly get pulled over. I don't know why Leo's keep giving them to them they get a call every time and have to deal with it. I would be embarrassed.

reloaded rounds do not fit in barrel - Help
Once you get dialed in there really isn't a reason for pistol.. the cases dont vary by that much, but going to light or to heavy will bring out the variances and cause feeding issues..

yeah, looks like a roll crimp. The issue is that the .45 dies are also used for revolver rounds, hence the roll crimp.. For safe measure i would pull them, better safe then sorry. Like stated a taper crimp will leave the case wall nice and flat if you do it right, not rounded off. You could probably pull off a very very light roll crimp, but why worry about it...

Excellent... it's these little hang ups where you learn the most. just check, double check and check again! 1.255 should be a good safe OAL

because not all your cases are going to be the exact same length, and some may get more or less crimp. if you go too light on the crimp some may not get enough. Also, progressives throw a curve ball if your not loading on all stations if you set it up with one round at a time and then switch to full progressive, you may get some flex in the shell plate. Also, make sure your putting the same amount of pressure on each down stroke. Man they really make you guess on that one! it mentions being able to put a crimp on it.... The way you set up the crimp is to adjust the die itself up and down in the press, and then the seating adjustment is in the middle of the die... ITS A PITA! which is why people opt for a separate taper die. if you need to adjust the taper, you need to then reset the bullet seating depth. All you should have to do is screw the die in maybe a 1/8-1/4 turn, and then unscrew the bullet seater the same amount. Just check and make sure the crimp is minimal and your OAL is correct. I measure the case around the bullet, and then i measure the case mouth, if its slightly smaller your GTG. Most people for pistol will put a small bell on the case and a small crimp on.. basically just enough to get the bullet in the case and just enough to get the cartridge into the chamber... it puts less stress on the case mouth and lets you re-use them more. I would use the powder through expander! expand and drop your charge! frees up a station for both a lock out die and a taper die.. lee sells good taper dies and there cheap. Any reason why your using a universal decapper?

"So my question, what did I do wrong? did I miss a step? Do I need a crimp die in station 5? I was under the impression that the bullet seat die would also crimp." I hope you have read up all you can and then some..... Does the die have a built in crimp for the seating die? did you set up the crimp in the seating die? and yes you need to remove the bell on the case... but you don't necessarily need to put a crimp on it. run your finger along the bullet and down the case if you feel an edge you have not removed the bell. Case bulge is normal around the bullet on most pistol rounds... your squeezing a bullet into a case that has a smaller diameter, hence why you bell the case mouth and this is also why you don't really need a crimp but MUST remove the bell.. it should be very very minimal though. FYI, if your using an auto pistol, just because they freely fall into the chamber doesn't mean they will freely load into the chamber either. They load on an angle and the edge of a case bell will get caught, which is why i put a very minimal crimp on all my pistol rounds.
