Might be a good idea to buy them in person with cash to not leave a paper trail.

Predicting a lot of FTATF## or FSCOTUS## serial numbers then.

I thought that was Heidi Campbell, at least when she’s not busy running for some other seat.

Looked at the voting record and of course my state Senator Heidi Campbell voted against it. One of if not the most useless person up on Capitol Hill.

The MSM tries to use various euphemisms (teens, youths, etc) to hide it but everyone knows.

Did they ever reopen the rifle and pistol ranges? I see they have a brand new spiffy website but it still says the ranges are closed. I used to shoot there and liked everything except the drive there and back. Nice ranges and cheap. I’ve since moved on to Strategic Edge.

About 6 months ago I worked up some loads to simulate FGMM performance in my Ruger Precision Rifle. In my rifle for 168gr SMKs I had better luck actually with IMR 3031. I think when I disassembled some rounds I found around 41gr of powder in them so I went a bit to either side. My best load was 41.3gr of IMR 3031 which was less than 0.75 MOA at 100 yards. I haven't had a chance to try and verify that performance or work up some loads for 175gr unfortunately.

If she’s willing to cave at the local/state level, how’s she going to hold up at the national level where the pressure is 10x greater, or more? No thanks. I have some issues with Andy Ogles myself but I voted yesterday in the primary for him. If Courtney Johnston happens to win the primary then I guess I won’t vote in that race.

The Nashville propaganda artists seethe about anything that even looks pro-gun.

For private property rights, TWRA enters the chat…

Everyone thought that would be the job that Vrabel would land in. Wonder where he ends up now.

What about depriming before the stainless tumble? That would help clean out the primer pockets although you might want to hit it with your brush anyways if you want it spotless.

I don’t remember seeing the signs at the Bass Pro exit before. Maybe I just had the same vision issues that mikegideon and BigK have had.

Double post

The $76 for 5000 primers hits hard considering today's market. You'll pay that much for a 1000 and that's a decent deal.

Thanks for the review. I've been using a Labradar myself but it can be a little finicky to get it working (direction and elevation of the beam, getting the bullet offset set up correctly, getting the muzzle in the right position to pick up the report without hitting it with muzzle blast, etc). If something ever happens to it I will seriously consider getting one of these.

Just FYI to everyone here, I went into Opry Mills mall the other day and spotted gunbuster signs at the exit from Bass Pro into the mall itself. I have no idea how long they've been up since I go there once in a great while, but I don't remember them being there the last time I was there. Personally I don't think I would go to Opry Mills without a weapon of some sort, but you make your own decisions. Just providing some info.

Might sound a little odd but I would love to get an M3 grease gun. I just like the way they chug along in full auto. I’d also want proper open bolt and SBR versions of some of the sub guns I have. Long barrel versions of the Thompson and PPSH just don’t look right.

The Polymer80 PF frames use Glock mags. Again I know you said no PCCs but since Cumberland already did, the Stribog now has a version that takes Glock mags. As many mag issues as they've allegedly had, probably should've done that sooner.

If you weren't halfway across the state I would be interested in the 6.5 and 7.7 Japanese cases. Happen to have a trip to the Nashville area planned anytime soon?

MidSouth has some Varget for sale this week in 1 lb containers, but something like $40/lb. A little rich for my blood.

When did they phase out mercuric primers? That's what I'd be worried about most with components that old.

Well way late but from what I've seen powder is available but more expensive than pre-2020. Projectiles seem to be about the same. Primers are almost non-existent and you'll pay dearly for them if you find them.

Thanks Lynn for the kind offer. I didn’t have a very good description of them so I decided to bite the bullet and make the drive again. Unfortunately the vendor had left after Saturday so going over there wouldn’t have helped. Thankfully they had realized what happened so they left their card with one of the RK people in the front. I have their contact info now and they are willing to mail it out to me. So this should eventually have a happy ending. This is not a mistake I’ll be making again soon!

A tip for those in the middle Tennessee area that don’t mind a bit of a drive. Midsouth Shooters Supply up in Clarksville has had powder in stock occasionally. If you go to their powder page they have an option along the side to filter by what’s in stock. Check it a couple times a day and you may just catch some in stock, but don’t dawdle or it might sell out (ask me how I know). Prices are higher than pre-2020 mess but not exorbitant. You can also pick up at their store instead of shipping and having to pay the hazmat fee. They’re open till 5 during the week.
