I have an Alaska Kodiak coal stove in my basement in front of the fireplace down there -- I haven't burned it in years I used to burn coal on both floors -- it is less work -- unfortunately, when diesel fuel skyrocketed it became too costly between the mining costs and taking a truck to get 4 ton of coal it wasn't enough savings over just using the boiler 1 stove is work -- 2 stoves is a 2nd job

another thought on kerosene -- I did use one for a few seasons as additional heat on a room far from the stove I would always light and extinguish the kerosene heater outside -- until that heater was hot it would stink you out of the house when burning it was barely noticeable -- not a quick, momentary heat source

you could always put a wood burning stove in front of the fireplace and pipe the chimney up the existing chimney kerosene is silly expensive and you would run a few gallons a day burning 2 units wood is abundant my wood stove is my primary heat source -- gas burning boiler is backup my pseg bill is generally under $200 monthly during the winter -- I'm in a 1900 square foot ranch

And make sure you keep those 10, loaded tubes away from the press -- you know, in case you have an Alec

be aware that this is the 36 grn mini mag and not the 40 grn typically you would find the 40 in stores -- only really matters if you are precision shooting FWIW -- my 2 "precision" 22's like the 36 grn offering better

Funny, I was thinking the same thing -- It's a bullet Is that your OAL? -- 1.220 It's OK to load longer -- My favorite load is a 200 grn semi wadcutter from ibeji loaded with 4.1 grn of promo with a 1.248 OAL

Membership is pro rated -- You also are not required to do work hours during your 1st year as a probationary member You won't have to worry about work hours till next year

I'm not so sure that the actual carbide of the die will scratch but the brass certainly will

Get that tumbler running wet -- You'll never go back -- I saw you thought it was spinning too slow -- How many RPMs do you get out of the drum? -- Mine run 74 RPM with a 6" drum I see they changed the lee primer seating tool -- Mine has the lever on the top, pushed with your thumb -- looks like the new one is more of a squeeze with your fingers -- new one may be more comfortable I've never used a cartridge checker -- you could always used the chamber of your gun -- Remove the barrel 1st!!! --- I've never had a round that wouldn't fit -- Just pay attention to what you're doing

very nice -- just took a look at their website something stuck right out to me -- do we, as residents of the peoples republic of NJ, have issues with "AR15" being spelled out on the lower

Just found out -- No more bulk rock salt for the foreseeable future Calcium chloride is gone too With no ice melt available it's gonna get slippery...

Nice -- Now I know where I can try one I have to go put in for permits...

your questions should be answered in that link from Steve

Right now I would buy media on ebay -- there are a couple of vendors selling the stuff at almost what I was paying for it I needed to buy it 300 pounds at a time to get those prices

RCBS Little Dandy Pistol Powder Measure This is a great pistol powder measure -- You'll need some rotors -- not sure which ones -- depends on what powder and charge you're using What powder did you end up with?

19" is a little long but should work fine -- Mine are 14" when I build them You'll do 900 to 1000 .45acp easily in a 19" drum -- gonna need 12 to 15 pounds of media

State, town , and county plows are protected -- you can't sue them -- 101.5 had an hour on that yesterday -- actually had a homeowner who's windows where broken on their house from that exact scenario -- county road, county truck, too bad -- board up your windows in winter or move your house Now that driver I bet could be sued -- what he did was uncalled for and dangerous -- good luck finding the driver I'd be arrested if I did that.

Those trim pieces won't bind on the table saw --- They are made to be cut -- It's PVC pipe that wants to pinch the blade when you make the 1st cut lengthwise thru the pipe Lowes or a supply house are the only places you'll find the reducers locally -- Not at HD -- at the Supply house the price goes up

I'm there now -- I've been plowing since I was 17 and I'm tired -- Coming up on 28 years now Thing is, I've been "essential personnel" for so long I don't know how to get out of it I can tell you where I've been for every snow event in northern middlesex county for the past 28 years

I hate when that happens My only criticism -- The agitators in the drum do take up a ton of space -- at least thats the way it looks in the pictures I hope there is enough room for the pins to interact with the brass -- Personally, I'd rip those pieces of trim in half I also wonder why you went with cutting the PVC cap to accept a plug instead of a reducer fitting and a rubber cap -- Just wondering what your thought process is here

I bet your more confused now, after this thread, than before -- The bottom line is there really is no 1 right answer -- you have plenty of options -- be happy if the supplier has any of these powders I've loaded a few different powders for .45 acp -- I started out, before the internet, with bullseye -- I bought my 1st pound from rays sport shop -- It is the #1 powder for accuracy in .45 used by many bullseye shooters -- it is dirty I've loaded a lot of rounds with bullseye -- Never a double charge -- Like it was said above, "if you're not paying close attention you have no business reloading" Then in search of a cleaner burning powder I used VV n340 -- worked fine Currently, and for the foreseeable future, I am using Promo -- It's a flake powder so you need to take the powder baffle out of your powder measure -- it's dirty too Promo loads as red dot in the reloading manuals -- I use Promo in .45acp, 38 special, 38 super, 9mm, 12 gauge, and 20 gauge shotshell It's cheap and versatile and I have over 30 pounds of the stuff...

If the 5 K box isn't an option anymore then I'm not interested -- I have 5 or 6 k here now -- I would really be interested in LPP and SRP in 1 load Have they been getting CCI 300s in lately -- I'd eat the hazmat myself on 5k of LPP and 5k of SRP -- I just don't check the sight much

So it looks like unlimited quantity on the small rifle primers -- anyone care to split hazmat charges? -- between 3 guys would be even better I'm in zip code 08846 and would be in for 5000 SRP

I just got one 2 days ago -- Decided to ask my grandmother if she still had my grandfathers razors -- We found a brass Gillette Needs some cleaning up but It'll be the one I try...

No Need to be a member to shoot -- But you know that
