Loading the same caliber for rifle and pistol
You can tune the ammo better as a hand loader. If you pick up a copy of Hornady's reloading manual there is a separate section for pistol caliber rifle loads. All the same equipment and projectiles can be used by a slight tweak in the powder can yield a much better/accurate round in the rifle. Ken

Looking for Varget
I dont know if its a suitable powder for 7-08 or not. According to load data on hodgdon website there are a few loads for it. It is pretty dam good in 223 though. Just over an inch i measured 1.12 with a caliper. I cant claim Im that good all the time. I was shooting off a bag on a perfect no wind no glare day with a super accurate NM AR and some of my finest home rolled loads. It was just a good day! Ken

Looking for Varget
Thats why I like Varget too. I have gotten CFE223 to just as tight a group with a little load tweaking. I actually got the best group ever with it today. about 1" at 100yards with iron sights and a 69gn Sierra MatchKing. CFE223 seems to be more available rite now. My results are with a .223, I am not sure what caliber you are loading. Ken

Home appliance heating, cooling warranty/protection program
I have heard some decent things about PSE&G worry free services. They seem to rate at about 75% satisfaction from dealing with people that have had them out. I myself use the "If its broke I gotta fix it" plan. I am a fairly handy individual though and the worst ive had to fix is a honewell smart valve on my furnace last winter, a water heater, and a washing machine. I just attribute that to the cost of home ownership. Ken

Top Shot
Thats why I record all the reality shows and watch them a day or two later. You can fast forward through all the drama BS and just watch the skill part. Ken

The other Sandy& generators
Thanks for the good word Bob! I just wish it went faster than it did. I would never have imagined that I would have so many of these things to install so fast. NJPilot, you are still on my list! Ken

AR500 steel
The target I got from you is definitely hard rite to the edge. I have zinged it a few times with a 308 and it didnt even roll the corner over or anything. The bolts didnt fare so well. I shot a bolt out of it more than once! Ken

Road rage from an NRA sticker?
They might have considered it until they got next to you. Once they see the size of the guy driving they probably punk out and move on to an easier target. Ken

Have any NJ residents here bought from Natchez?
Im gonna guess you meant post 52 since that is the highest one. I this is someone fishing they are not the sharpest tool in the box. I cant see someone claiming that an internet forum told them they could order from a website. If I had a point to proove I would order a box of 50 cal APIT rounds or the components to make them. Once in my hand I would say "hay, look what I got off the internet with no ID" Ken

heat treatment of 5.56 cases?
Funny thing there, I know all about the annealing process but after the first answer my 3 year olds voice popped in my head with the same "why?"! Ken

Everyone has to start somewhere. I dont see the harm in asking a question like that. Ken

Important Advice Needed
I am glad we found some common ground. I dont doubt for a second that you have perfectly well adjusted cats. I know they do exist and I myself would be lost without any of my animals. I really do wish you both the best of luck, I am just playing devils advocate here. Ken

Important Advice Needed
I guess we will just agree to disagree. This is what I base my advice on, I have a few rental properties and I get people that want to change the no pet rule all the time. They all have some special reason that makes them more important than the rules and it drives me nuts. Not one of them was disabled (blind, in a wheel chair,...) The reason for my no pet policy is not because I dont like animals. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats that are all rescues and wonderful companions. My reason is that I had one tennant do several thousand dollars worth of damage because they where not capable of taking care of an animal. The only thing I got out of it was a judgement, no money, and a ton of lost time. Ken

Important Advice Needed
You are correct, I added his name in error. There is no need to get all butthurt at me. You didnt seem to understand some of the other points of view expressed here, I was merely offering my advice on the problem at hand here. BTW, if you do not want the advice of others then DO NOT head your post with "Important Advice Needed" You will get just that. Ken

Have any NJ residents here bought from Natchez?
I just was lucky enough to score some 22lr from them at a not quite ridiculous price. I was not asked for any form of ID. I have been buying from them and SGammo for a few years so it may just be that im already in their system? They both have always done good by me. Ken

Important Advice Needed
I dont see any of this as ignorant. Some of it heated or a little harsh perhaps. The one thing about the post that got me riled up is the fact that some people feel that rules should not apply to them. I think that may be what got matty, njjim and JLF all worked up. I was gonna stay out of it but in an ignorant staement the three mentioned above were acused of making an ignorant post. Kinda the pot calling the kettle black to me. Maybe you got the answer you where looking for here, maybe not. Good luck with your situation Ken

Important Advice Needed
I know with dogs they need to be trained and certified to be considered therapy animals. I really dont know about cats though. The best thing to do in my opinion is to find another appt or find the cats a home. Sometimes there are battles you wont win. Ken

midi or mini clay targets
I got a box of the midi clays by mistake at the sportsmen center in bordentown nj once. I am not sure if they regularly stock them or not. Its worth a call if thats close enough for you. Ken

Ever wonder what happens when 100 primers go boom in your press?
I had one go off on me while hand priming and it scared the shit out of me. I could not imagine what 100 would sound like! One was load as hell and made my wife run away. Since that happened I started to weak safety glasses while reloading and I would recommend it to all. Dont let this scare you or anyone away from reloading though, I am sure it is still far more dangerous to get into your car and drive anywhere than to reload. Ken
