Mine was also sent.

Even though there was a setback, the good news is that she is now home. She will continue to be in our thoughts.

Somewhat off topic, but while browsing the web about this story, I found an eBay listing for a used gas tank belonging to a Porsche GT. The price was $5000-$6000. That's with a non-working fuel pump. According to the ad, a new tank runs over $17,000.

While reading the first sentence of your post, I was thinking to myself, "I'm glad he's willing to be my guinea pig." Then I get to the next to the last sentence. Thank you.  :rofl:

Hey! Did you all hear about Zimmerman being arrested a week or so ago? 

I am the same way. I am a visual and hands-on learner. This thread will definitely get me headed in the right direction. 

  These appear to be the same item.   This: http://www.midwayusa...al-charging-die will screw into this: http://www.midwayusa...al-charging-die And this will screw into your turret plate.

Gordon, the die set you posted has only 2 dies. Will I not need 4?

According to Lee, the 4 hole is better for handgun only, and the Classic is for both handgun and rifle.

Is this Dillon press their version of the Lee 4 hole press?   http://www.dillonprecision.com/#/content/p/9/catid/1/pid/25792/?viewImg=0

So, your recommendation would be to buy a different press, or turn this one by hand? 

Is this the one you are talking about?   http://www.amazon.com/Lee-Precision-Classic-Turret-Press/dp/B003BWTF1E

Would you recommend buying just the press, or the "kit"? I'd rather not buy a kit, if it comes with a bunch of junk that I'll need to immediately replace.

I've never reloaded. I've never watched anyone reload. I know almost nothing bout reloading. I do plan on taking a TGO member or two up on their offers to show me the ropes, but I'd like to get an idea of what I'll need.   Being that I'm in the middle of this 300 Blackout build, reloading for this caliber is my main immediate concern. Other calibers of concern will be mostly .223/5.56 and .40 S&W.   What will I need? If it's not too much trouble, specifics (brands, types, models, etc.) would be most helpful. Also, items to avoid may also come in handy, too.   Thank you in advance.

I don't what what hunters usually do with the antlers, but I thought I'd throw this out there. If you are just going to toss them, I'll gladly take them. I usually buy deer and elk antlers for my dogs to chew on, so they will go to good use. I'm sure there are several other uses, so maybe everyone keeps them for something. Just thought I'd check. 

I agree. The company I drive for had always had their trucks governed at 70. The recently started backing that down to 65-67. This makes passing much more difficult. Thankfully (knock on wood), mine is still set at 70. Even at 70, I pass far more trucks than trucks pass me. If I don't think I can pass in a reasonable amount of time, I stay put. I get paid my the hour, and I have all day.

Wow! Before reading this thread, I had no idea that something as simple as driving a vehicle could possibly be so over-thunked.

Considering 95% of the trucks running up and down the Interstate are governed at or below 70 mph, this should rarely be an issue.

I thought it was common knowledge that most stores had a very limit number of the Doorbuster items. That's why morons camp in front of the store for a week prior to the sale.

How do you get into doing the evaluations and reviews? Sounds like fun.

A slightly different angle.

If I had a car with 600+ HP and a top speed of 200+, I couldn't promise mine wouldn't suffer a similar fate. I hope it was the crash that took them. R.I.P, fellas.

They obviously haven't had a 120 pound tire with 100+ PSI and spinning at 70 MPH blow out next to their window. God forbid it be a steer tire.  Of all the things I encounter as a truck driver, this is probably the most aggravating. Not only is it extremely unsafe for someone in a small vehicle to ride alongside a semi, it leaves the truck driver one less escape route, in the event we need to make a sudden lane change for any number of reasons.

A friend of mine is trying to identify a collapsible stock. He believes it's Mil-Surp, but not sure. It does not have HK printed on it anywhere, so it may be made by PTR?      It has “142” and “X”s stamped over top of the 142 on the bottom.   Does this rign a bell to anyone? Sorry, not pics at this time.

I clean mine every once in a while. Not very often. When I do, I just use hot water and Dawn dish soap. Rub it in with my hands, rinse, hang to dry.
