Wise food free sample
I sent away years ago for the wise food samples -- never got them I buy the freeze dried stuff from costco -- fruits and veggies -- when it's on sale I have a bunch of tray rations stocked, the freeze dried stuff and a deep everyday pantry But a little extra of what you already eat that will keep -- dinty moore, spam -- that stuff never goes bad could go a couple months without a store trip -- it would get boring but can do it

Middlebrook Firearms?
I just saw it last night -- right across from D&R Boats -- minutes from home Honestly I never bought anything from Garden State -- went in a few times 1st time I set foot in the place I was told I couldn't touch anything without my firearms ID -- "Really" I said "I guess it's store policy" Guys in the store said "No, its the law" My reply was simple "what is the statute #, I'd love to look it up" -- Not a sound... I will get in middlebroook this coming week, Just to stop by and see what is going on and check out pricing -- I just put in for 3 P2P's last week garden state was always high on their reloading supplies -- yea they had it but man you had to be desperate to pay those prices I'm never that desperate

Just got a dillon 650 xl now what ?
For flake powders try taking the powder baffle out and never let the hopper go below half full This works great for me loading promo, a flake powder I use in 38 special, 45 acp, 9mm, and 38 super no powder baffle works in both the dillon 650 and the Hornady LNL powder measures

places in nj or north east pa where we can buy reloading supplies.
The group buy is the way to go -- Get a few guys needing powder and primers together and split the hazmat and shipping costs -- everyone wins

Just got a dillon 650 xl now what ?
It's a ruger precision not an AR -- Single stage press is KING for accurate loads Way too much deviation in a 650 -- at least in my 650 -- for accuracy loads to my liking My 650 is pistol only -- to me that is where it shines I make bulk 556 on my hornady progressive but I size on my rock chucker Honestly, the only thing I do on the progressive for rifle is powder charge, seat bullet and crimp all else is hand operation one at a time This is just 55 grain plinking ammo -- Accuracy ammo for the 243 - 22/250 - 300 win mag - all are single stage operations If I had a ruger precision I'd be making ammo 1 round at a time -- all perfect I would have to think that those who are making competition rifle ammo on a dillon 650 have tweaked their machines with custom parts No way, In my opinion, would a 650 be good for precision ammo for a rifle like that Ruger Good thing is they hold their value well -- If you decide to really get serious and make perfect ammo that dillon will sell just fine -- or keep it for high volume pistol rounds...

First Hunt A Success!
Nice job -- Do you mind saying what all those specialty meats cost? I'm looking for good butcher for the specialty stuff -- Guy I use now is great for standard cut but I don't like any of his specialty stuff

Streamlight TLR-1 HL $99
Does anyone have any thoughts on a good CR123 rechargeable battery to go with this? Is there a good rechargeable cr123? I would look over at Candlepower forums but they seem to be down at the moment.

Cheap Loadmasters
I've used Wideners too -- No issues I do not remember giving them info that was out of the ordinary -- nothing more than I would give Amazon...

No hazmat fees on CCI primers - midwayusa.com
I'm in the same boat -- Just browsed their powder selection -- "Temporarily unavailable" seems to be the norm -- I'll need some TAC and H110 in the near future -- I can find each one at separate places but trying to find both at the same vendor is proving hard to do

Where can i buy angle irons?
I doubt anyone will beat the price Glenn can get it at I used to get mine from McElroy in Piscataway years ago -- knew the shop foreman quite well... The big shops get it way cheaper than we can

It's embarrassing but I'm told it eventually happens to everyone
How would NJ know you bought a pistol in Florida? How would they ever find out?

Selling price for 1911?
I guess yours is the one on the Facebook page -- there's a few 1911's on there right now and I'm wishing I had a permit or 2... but I'd be looking for a screaming deal Been a lot of 1911's there lately

Hornady L&L AP
You'll find 9mm will stick a little the dies -- It's a tapered case I will lube them very slightly to get them to run smooth -- Spray a quick shot of one shot lube in a plastic bag -- add a couple handfuls of cases and shake around Load as normal
-
Hornady L&L AP
I should have said this last night but keep in mind that every time you "bump" that powder measure you pack powder down into the measuring cavity Not an issue but be sure to dump that load of powder that keeps getting packed down before you actually charge a case -- Just dump it back in the measure once you're ready to load ammo I do this whenever I start reloading for the night -- Dump the 1st 3 loads from the measure then load as normal -- I'll weigh the 4th drop and a few after that but they usually comply with what I want by then
-
Hornady L&L AP
Ignore it Carl -- That little movement is insignificant -- It has to go at least 3/4 of the way to drop any powder Mines set up for .223 right now so there's absolutely no contact with the shell plate I'm fairly certain that when I set up for pistol I get a little contact and movement in the powder measure too.

Preparing for Hunting Season
I used Roche and son all year last year -- Packs meat in freezer paper -- grinds with suet or pork -- you decide $85 with no specialty stuff -- that was last years price I believe Roche is good for basics -- I don't really like his specialty items that I have ordered - sausage, kielbasa Located in white house station -- 1 street over from the train station
