Some real grungy brass turned to Bling
You're running fully assembled cartridges through the wet tumbler with primers and powder? I'd be real weary about firing those, even though there is a crimp around the bullet, I wouldnt be suprised if water made it's way into the powder, and also the primer.

What? Another Revolver???
You will sell that to me.

The Seif Tumbler in action ! deprimed an assload of 38 special to clean up. I load it to the top and run it over night, they come up amazingly clean.

Recommend a revolver.
Colts are super expensive, growing ever rarer, are all out of production, work ass backwards from every other revolver, have no parts or service any more. ...so , for a shooter - a colt would be your last choice, if you want something to keep in the safe and look at every once in a while, go right ahead.

Recommend a revolver.
Agreed with Bob, plus - I dont see the reason for the (much) thicker top strap. I mean , it serves it's purpose - But dont think that - oh , well - it's bigger so it must be stronger ! --- All the pressure from firing magnum rounds are held within the cylinder.

That was the least interesting video i've ever watched on comparing the two, could not find the comment you mentioned about the section above the cylinder? What was it?

most classifiers are. There are a small handful that arent. But that one looks pretty cool out of the new list. And an easy setup

I'm sure Vlad will chime in with the offical reply, but - As far as I know - the only thing CJRPC submits to USPSA is the classifier scores. you can find your stage scores here @ www.cjuspsa.org

Another "What Progressive Press" Thread...
also to note, most people buy dillon... well because dillon is the best, great customer service, and since alot of shooters have them if you are in a pinch with a broken part you can borrow from a friend, until dillon sends you the part free of charge.

Another "What Progressive Press" Thread...
Whoever told you the 650 was difficult to change calibers is smoking crack. It's stupid easy. You buy extra tool heads for your dies, they are like 20 bucks each. You set your dies once, and that's it. Example, when I go from 38 special to 38 short colt, it literally takes me 30 seconds. If I need to change everything out, like going from 38 to 45 you need to change out everything it's maybe 10 minutes.

It's solid steel rod wrapped with a rubber hose for traction. I dont think a glued peice would hold up , remember you have 10-15 pounds of stainless steel pins, plus another 8-13 pounds of brass bouncing around in there.

I was thinking the same thing. Add plumbers to the list with cops just wait till spring time and we can add hvac guys to the list too

Likewise, IIRC they are approved in most places to even be hidden behind walls, but the price on them is still real high. I couldnt imagine somebody doing any sort of project with all sharkbites. A copper 90 degree fitting is like 42 cents, versus 3-5 dollars for a sharkbite. I prefer the old fashion way when working with copper, I think the only sharbite fitting I have in my house right now is for my toilet. Though, I did upgrade the whole house to PEX ( that fancy smancy plastic pipe ) real good stuff, easy to work with, and the crimp tool works great.

I think shark bites are a wonderful invention, they come in handy for temp hook ups, but personal preference would be to solder them. If you dont know how surely you have a friend or family member that is handy and has the tools. Plus, if you're on a budget , a few 3/4" elbows and couplings will be cheaper then 3/4" shark bites and that braided hose.

In my experience, Electric heaters always die quicker then their gas cousins. These burst all the time at work. Check the heating element port, see if that's where the leak is you might be able to just replace that if the threads are still good- The elements swell up and disform. Most likely though it's done, I'd go ahead and replace it. It's not very hard to do if you know how to solder copper pipe, do a little electrical wiring. Good luck.- World Class Steel @ OBRPC - Sunday 11/3/13
I'll be there. Adam, Charging iPad now for scoring software tomorrow.- USPSA @ OBRPC - 10/27/13
Saw this posted on obcats about the october scores: Everyone, my apologies, apparently the interface between the Nooks and EzWinScore has an issue. Only the classifier score is correct.We are working on the issue and will re-post scores as soon as the issue is corrected.- S&W 34-1 spitting on my face! OUCH!!!
Could be a few things, but most likely out of time. Check what Griz said first, is their excessive leading on the sides of the forcing cone? Look up online how to check the timing and report back,.- Ruger 10/22 15rd Mag
Nope, firstly - they probably wouldn't ship a prohibited magazine to you. secondly, even if they did, or you brought it into the state somehow you'd be committing a crime. You'll need somebody out of state to do it, or an FFL that specializes in pinning them - hot water heater problem
