Jake - stage 5 - top time by .9 seconds

I'm using eezox on my colt 1911. The verdict is still out on its lubricating abilities but as a protectant it does excel. just be sure to follow the directions for the initial application -- strip all other lubes before applying -- let dry for 24 hours before assembly -- should be no wet spots Jer

Worked for me earlier this year -- I sent a copy of the original Certificate that was given as a verification of the class -- My certificate was 20 years old but they took it no problem I believe I sent them my Rifle License certificate and it was signed by the instructor back then. Jer

We'll be there -- Better go surfing -- I'd hate for Jake to whoop you again...

Looks like it was a great time -- my son and I would have joined if it was a sunday regarding the 3rd of Nov -- Saturday again but Clinton hosts a youth pheasant hunt on the 3rd -- might be really crowded I don't think they shut the range down but there may be the chance of that The youth hunt is guided over dogs on stocked birds --youth hunters only Having 50 guys on the range may not be a good thing... Just an fyi.... Jer

a lot of us run 1911 .22s for steel -- none of us have had zero malfunctions -- everyone I've seen is running bulk pack ammo - switch to Mini Mags and it'll probably run better Now the ruger MK series usually runs flawlessly with bulk pack ammo -- I guess it just depends how serious you are shooting steel -- I find the 1911 a ton of fun but if I want to be fast I'll shoot the MKIII hunter

Probably a rare occurrence ... Maybe that gun took a big fall or something to damage the slide -- I can't imagine it being a common problem and still on the market

Just wait... next year you can pay sales tax on it too

Same thing the sig and GSG 1911 .22s are made of....

I've got a 300 win mag that will bite you if your not careful -- Got me once

Wait a minute --- What happened at the steel shoot? Nevermind -- Saw the thread

Read up on Moly Resin --- I'll be doing that to my GSG .22 very soon

I would have sworn he said October's match...

I'm pretty sure Jon said it was going to be something special. Didn't he say everyone will pay the non member fee? BBQ and prizes and stuff... I'm bummed I have to miss it

Unfortunately Jake and I will miss this weekend again -- Got plans... Jer

anybody get video?

I don't sit still either Mike -- my wife and I just have different lists As for the CJ shoot -- Looks like Jake and I are going to pass. We'll try and go throw some clays instead. have fun tomorrow Jer

Threading dies is no big deal -- Lock rings work fine and you can upgrade them to hornady lock rings for around $20. The hornady rings give a much better grab on the die being of a clamshell design Don't be afraid to thread dies -- repeatability is easy.

Never say that around my wife --- "Need something to do" on a sunday -- The list will come out faster than Alec shoots 5 plates

After seeing that video, looking up at the plane from below, thats definitely what I saw flying over the other day -- Just going a little faster

We're on the fence -- Google puts it at an hour and 15 minutes one way -- Not sure what we're gonna do

Pins are here!!! All 50 pounds worth. They are about 1/2 inch long and very consistent at .062 diameter. They do pass thru the flash hole just fine but no way in hell are 2 gonna get in there. If your interested in getting some PM me. I want to keep about 15 pounds for myself the rest is available. Here's some pictures.

I don't know about escorted -- How about circled multiple times. Those fighters kept doing circles around them from what I heard. I couldn't see them over manville, trees in the way but I sure could hear them circling. Probably went around 8 or 9 times. I did get a good look at 1 fighter after the planes must have landed -- it flew right over my backyard following RT 22 heading towards NYC. It wasn't very high up. Was maybe 3 or 4 minutes after the circling. Do the 22's wings sweep back? The fighter that I saw sure made me think of it's wings swept back. It was moving pretty quick. It did have the 2 distinct tail "wings" as the picture above. Jer

I go to NH regularly -- I go the shortest route I possible can thru NY following FOPA. From what I've heard FOPA is only a defense -- Rumor has it that NY seems to disregard FOPA until after the arrest. Tappan Zee to 684 into CT I will drive 50 miles out of my way to avoid the GW bridge. NEVER NEVER NEVER consent to a search of your vehicle. KEEP your stuff locked in the trunk, cased , ammo separate. Locked case if no trunk. Hidden under all your stuff. Hope you don't get in a wreck. NH lets everyone open carry. NO nothing needed. You do get some strange look every now and then but your perfectly legal. No driving while open carry. Must then get cased. NH will issue a CCW to non residents as long as you already have a permit from anywhere else. Florida CCW + $100 sent to NH state police and they send you a non resident CCW in about 2 weeks. This allows CCW and you may now carry in the car. From what I've heard VT is carry and be happy. Not sure on the resident vs non resident thing -- I only drive thru on occasion, rarely stop in VT.

Ok, I get it, Moneys tight. You need to just think a bit. 7.7 jap -- I'm not familiar with it so I searched it quick -- 7 MM bullet kinda sized like a 30-06 casing. Is that correct? Don't take this as a knock on Lee gear, I use some lee stuff just not familiar with their press. Anyway, I'm not so sure cheap is smart here. If you where looking to reload 9mm or some other pistol caliber I wouldn't be saying this but -- your brass will take some effort to size. A cheap press may not be up to the task -- Sure it will work at 1st but 500 rounds down the road??? A harbor freight caliper?? I hope its better than everything else from HF -- Not what I'd want to measure a live explosive, about to go off, next to my face with. I'd just hate to see you spend hard to come by money on mediocre gear that may not give very good results. Better gear has some sort of resale value too -- the cheap stuff won't sell unless you give it away. It may sound like it but I'm not trying to discourage you from reloading -- I'd just hate to see you get a bunch of crap and get turned off really fast when things don't work out as planned. Jer
