Dude, you have like 4 progressive presses. Why go backwards with hand priming?

The Walking Dead
I think it's either going to be Michonne , or Daryl that eat the bucket in the next couple episodes Daryl has been kind of distancing himself from the groups new path, it would make sense for him to be exiled from the camp. Michonne has been the leading voice in trying to make the new camp happen, and have the group accept it - it'd make sense for the twist to be her to get killed somehow because of Alexandria.

What's the point of installing a few decapitated dies in a progressive ? You only need one. That being said, find somebody with a auto drive on a 1050

New production 4 inch will be the best you can do. you can find a used older variant , model 25-2 came in a 6.5 inch barrel. Model 625-2,-3,-4 all came in 5 inch barrels.these are often referred to as " model of 1988 or 1989 " 625s- S&W 686 vs. Ruger GP100?

3.3 of titegroup behind a 147 already sounds pretty light ? Did you chrono the rounds ? I don't do much 9mm, but u have a batch loaded up with 147s with 3.6 of titegroup and I recall them being about 130 power factor for uspsa.- Ceiling Fan Box
Fan box, you can probably confirm by looking at the threaded section where the screws for the fan go in. If they are threaded all the way up , or a good portion, it's a fan box. Non fan rated boxed typically only have 1/4 -3/4 of threaded section- Need some ideas in a new revolver

I guess it's where you draw the line on affordable mods, I've probably got a 8-10 or so of the hogue extended releases in my safe on guns, If I need to do reloads on the clock it's on the gun, but regardless of that, it really improves the ergonomics of doing a reload,at least for me since I don't have to shift my grip to get to the stock release- Need some ideas in a new revolver
Yup, hogue makes them. Pricey but make all the diffrence in the world for speed reloads- Need some ideas in a new revolver
It sounds like you've already convinced yourself you like the Ruger GP100 the best, which is fine. My first revolver was a GP100 too, though it didnt stay in my safe very long when I got " serious " about revolver shooting. Alot of my opinions come from actually shoot-ability , my primary focus is competitive shooting fully based around revolvers. I dont care about how shinny the finish is, what color the grips are, etc. Pizza Bob has written out a pretty detailed post somewhere explaining the metallurgy between the rugers and the smiths, the reason why the ruger " feels " more solid, is because the ruger requires so much more metal in certain places to withstand pressures, so yes - it is thicker, and beefier, and it may give the impression that it is stronger. The smiths have a better casting process from what I understand. As far as the triggers are concerened, if all you plan to do is take it out of the box and shoot it, go with whatever trigger feels best to you, But the smith and wessons can be tuned so much better, and easier then the rugers. You could easily probably drop a few pounds off your double action trigger with about 20 dollars in springs and 10 minutes of your time, furthermore - you can decide to stone and polish the internals and make the trigger even smoother. Resale value: I think Joe is selling his GP100s for what? 400 bucks? You'll never find a desirable smith and wesson that low, once you buy it - the value does nothing but rise.- Need some ideas in a new revolver
