Joe You should have tried it last night with those 4.2 gr reloads.. it felt like a 22 LOL. I'll bring some more of those next time.

That's is a good price.

lol i guess i deserved that.

So you can call ahead of time to see if they have the powder that you want prior to driving there? Thanks.

I am a fan of pressing in the pins in and just finishing with a punch to get the pins seated all the way.

That thing is sweet!!

Thanks! 79.03/1k shipped! 124gr FN 9mm

I need to play around with it. The instructions say 230 pieces of 9mm with 5 lbs of media and a gallon of water. Max weight is 15 lbs. I have read people doing 300 9mm with 5 lbs, I have also read people cutting the media in half and running 500 pieces. So I have some experimenting to do. I am totally new to reloading and just have a lee turret press so, I wont be churning out large amounts of ammo for a while. the seperator is just a simple Franklin arsenal thing that fits over a 5 gal bucket. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/731116/frankford-arsenal-standard-media-separator?cm_vc=subv1183204

My fist run of tumbling ever. I picked up a slightly used thumler tumbler on arfcom for 100 bux. 200 rounds of 9mm bling

Found it at target today. Thanks.

I ended up getting the RCBS 505. Thanks.

Cool thanks. Is lemon shine easy to find? To be honest I really haven't looked.

Just got my ss media. Do I need to run this first before I start using it for cleaning brass? Thanks.

That was cool!

Nice! I am digging mine that I got from AIM the last time they were available. They ship fast. I had it in like 3 days.

Just ordered a lee classic turret press from kempf gun shop and the kit does not come with a scale. A good friend reccomended this one : http://m.dillonprecision.com/content/p/9/pid/25215/catid/7/Dillon__039_s___039_Eliminator__039__Scale Is there anything else that might be cheaper that I should consider? Thanks

for 9mm, Are you guys running the critical defense of the critical duty (which is +P)?

That is what I did. It worked out well for me. Just keep turning the tension a half a turn each time.

Nice set up! How do you like that magpul afg?

I have one too. IMO its just as secure as a gunvault. It works very time I got this one below but I would opt for the larger one as it could use another 2 inches of depth. http://www.amazon.com/Barska-AX11620-BARSKA-Mini-Biometric/dp/B004XSB5TK/ref=pd_sim_sg_1

Yes

Lol me too I was watching Monday night football.

I actually picked up 2 lbs(limit) of HP-38 at cabelas over the weekend. Thanks!

I got may saiga there. Good guys.

Don't be intimidated on "building" a lower. Is it so easy and you don't need any special tools other than a punch and a hammer. I am a fan of pressing pins rather than hammering them in so I also used a c-clamp to press in the trigger guard pin and visegrips covered in tape to peess in the BHO pin. I barely used the hammer except to get the pins flush. There a so may youtube videos showing step by step and ar15.com has a ton of useful suggestions ect. Have fun..good luck.
