Shot my first clays yesterday. Thank you all!
I've heard this as well and I've always wondered how big of a difference it really makes. I've never served in the military, but in my mind's eye I've always pictured snipers as staying prone/motionless for long periods of time while waiting for a clean shot. This would seem to negate the effects of previously warming up ammo as the rifle would presumably need to be cocked and locked well before a shot is made (thus allowing ammo to get to ambient tem anyway). Maybe I'll throw some ammo in the freezer for a while before I go to the range and see if there's any difference over the chrono...

what would happen if you shot a bullet?
The last post to this thread was almost 10 months ago - May 10, 2019 Just let it go.

This. Unless you're politically connected or a wealthy celebrity there's zero chance.

Getting My FFL - My Journey
Best of luck! Definitely interested to hear about the paperwork/processing end. How long ago did you start the application process? Also, is the FFL anchored to the location you're working in, or is it anchored to you (meaning that you can move to a new location if business expands exponentially)?

How was she not immediately arrested?
Absolutely. Even in urban areas kids were allowed/expected to bring their .22 rifles to and from school if they were on the rifle team. Now districts barely acknowledge the fact that they used to have shooting ranges in the basement of the school buildings.

How was she not immediately arrested?
There are no squirrels or rabbits in the courtroom. i have no problem with responsible kids (like mine) handling or using guns. Some of mine even compete with them. Doesn't change my opinion of the story.

How was she not immediately arrested?
I taught my kids to shoot. We carry guns to and from the places we're going to be using them. We use them to shoot bullets at things. I don't use my children or guns as props to further political agendas. Has nothing to do with the media.

I dislike when parents use their kids as props to further political agendas, regardless which side of the aisle they fall on. Reminds me of the Greta climate girl.

First time reloading
Looks like a lot of crimp to me, but different people like different crimp, so if it works for you stick with it. As others have mentioned, wiping down the powder tube with a Bounce sheet and using dry graphite will eliminate the static (even in the winter in a basement). If you're not loading to max powder then your COL having a slight variance shouldn't be an issue. Ideally you'd want to be as consistent as possible. For ME the amount of variance I'm comfortable with depends on the bullets and cases I'm using. If I'm using the same brass/headstamp with a good/consistent jacketed bullet, I don't expect more than .002 variance here and there. If I'm loading lead SWC that I got in a cheap bulk pack and I'm using mixed brass I expect a little bigger variance. There are some reloaders who would read that and say I'm a fool and that every round has to be nuts-on. They measure EVERY bullet with calipers and separate them into groups so that EVERY finished round will measure EXACTLY the same. You have to do your homework and get to a level that's comfortable for you. For me powder needs to be nuts-on. If I'm set for 3.7 grains, my powder measure needs to throw 3.7 every time. I have a Hornady Lock n Load press so the powder measure is great for the powders I use. Like others, I have an empty spot in my progressive press where I visually look at the powder in the case before I seat the bullet. I'm less concerned with a squib than I am about a kaboom from a double charge.

This week on GunForHireRadio #457 Alfred Conti shares his red flag story for posting a 1 Star review on a Doctor! Are you scared yet? Tune in
I wish the guy well. IMO he'd be better served having a prepared statement or having someone else speak for him.

P2P extension— 2 weeks, and no word
Different towns have different policies. I have nothing but good things to say about my Police Department and the clerk. I picked up two permits last month and they were already pre-filled in with the extension.

NJ History made today (NFA tax stamp approved)
It's been a long week for me, so I don't really follow this. I thought short AR's (brace stock, vertical grip, etc, etc) were OK in NJ now. I don't understand the significance of the effort this guy went through.

Moving question
Last July I moved within the same town and I was required to go through the FARS/regular application process. My town clerk is fantastic with permits and FID cards so I had my updated one in a couple of weeks.
