Powder coating the easy way
TNMTBik3r replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
These were not lubed. It sounds like there are a couple of simple ways to remove the lube though - bake as suggested by Dolomite or use acetone/thinner. I wonder how much of a difference the lube would make if you tried to PC over? I'm hoping to go shoot these tomorrow. -
Powder coating the easy way
TNMTBik3r replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Finally got around to testing this powder coat. I used laquer thinner and Powder Buy the Pound brown red powder (also have olive drab but not used it yet). Baked at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. The wire is aluminum screening like for a door/window. Bullets are Flacon Bullets 115 grain, sized at .356. After the powder coat sizes are from .357 to .358. Here is the first batch of 50. Used an even 1/2 teaspoon of powder and approx. 1 cup of thinner. 2nd batch - used a heaping 1/2 teaspoon and almost 2 cups of thinner. Seems to have worked better, neither of these pictures are all that great but this 2nd picture looks much closer to the actual bullets whereas the first batch are a bit spotty. -
I blame my phone. Youre sometimes corrects to you're and sometimes to your. Maybe I should just start spelling you are...

You're holding your gun wrong... Hear that quite a bit at the range, everyone thinks they are an expert.

Best eating establishments in Middle - East Tn area?
TNMTBik3r replied to Randall53's topic in General Chat
Betty's Parkway in Columbia. Some awesome steaks. Also Shaffer Farms meat shop in Summertown, very good brisket and stuff plus fresh meat to take back home. -
Trimming brass sucks.... I do not trim pistol brass, and use the Hornady cam lock trimmer for all my rifle brass. It is a manual trimmer, but works well and the price ($75ish) isn't too bad.

What bullets do you like for plinking?
TNMTBik3r replied to brent_strong's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I have been shooting Rainer and Powerbond plated in my 9mm. Also, Rocky Mountain Reloading has good prices on plated, 1k shipped for $95. I haven't shot these yet but they look good and heard great things. Getting ready to try some Falcon Bullets and maybe other cast, but am powder coating per the other thread. -
Zimmerman Trial: Verdict Reached!
TNMTBik3r replied to TripleDigitRide's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Correct verdict in a case that never should have happened. Unfortunately GZ life will never be normal again, but he has some lawsuits he can file to pay off his defense team and move to a better location. -
Am putting a new one in now. O'Reilly is about the only parts store I shop at

2009 Ranger XLT, 4.0. Its 4x2 and auto. I've put just over 86k miles in less than 5 years, and this is first real issue but its one of those things that happen.
-
Water pump cracked on the way to work this morning. Got a tow, now gotta fix it. Ford Ranger with the 4.0 is not the easiest to access and work on. Hope everyone else enjoys their day and weekend! Hopefully I'll still get some time to go shoot.

Question - Flash Player for Android 4.1.2 Jelley Bean ?
TNMTBik3r replied to R_Bert's topic in General Chat

Question - Flash Player for Android 4.1.2 Jelley Bean ?
TNMTBik3r replied to R_Bert's topic in General Chat
Lester is basically correct... Flash is being phased out and unsupported to try and force HTML5 acceptance and migration. Even Adobe recognizes this, hence making flash unsupported for Android. -
Question - Flash Player for Android 4.1.2 Jelley Bean ?
TNMTBik3r replied to R_Bert's topic in General Chat
A couple of options - I run custom ROMs so flash is embedded and I don't have to worry with 3rd party apps. 1. Use a 3rd party app on the play store. No personal experience so read reviews. 2. Google search for the flash .apk download and install it (allow install from unknown sources in settings). Xda Developers has a guide with downloads. -
I reported the app to Google, not that it will do any good but did make me feel like I accomplished something today. :)

Tennessee HCP holder arrested in Delaware

Lmao, what a story. BTW, GC in Columbia closed years ago. I hadn't heard good things about the Cool Springs one so never tried it. But up until the end, for several years Columbia GC was great food.

OK, I misunderstood that you were using the same process with the Lee dies and they worked... I don't use Lee but I imagine you set them the same way. RCBS will not email you a tracking number, but it comes from CA so expect 5 business days in my experience. Hopefully the new dies fix your issue.

RCBS bullets or bucks rebate... now bucks only
TNMTBik3r replied to seez52's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I just double checked last night, and I actually have not received my bullets back from Hornady yet... I have an email from mid March saying they received the 'order' but nothing has came in the mail. RCBS bullets were in my hands in about 4 weeks. -
