Walmart Pulls Guns, Ammo Displays in U.S. Stores, Citing Civil Unrest
jpx2rk replied to Garufa's topic in General Chat
Just saw on Ch. 6 in Knoxville that WM has reversed this policy of removing guns from display during civil unrest, so do that mean WM supports civil unrest??? I saw on the news where a WM in Philly was looted just a couple days/nights ago due to the latest shooting by police, even tho the guy had a knife and would not obey their instructions. -
From my reading on various forums, current dies will work but you will need the die blocks or whatever they are called specific to the Forster press since the dies just slide in/out, they don't screw into the top brace. Makes changing calibers easy from what I've read.

I quit watching the game about half way thru the 3Q, score indicates it did not get any better. IMO, we need an offensive line that can block (both pass and run), and a QB that can play on a consistent level.

Backorder, Preorder, Availability of ammo and components
jpx2rk replied to Jamie Jackson's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I've got several stocks that I could bed during this "slow" period, but all of my rifles are shooting about the best they will (all factory) so I keep thinking, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". LOL -
Backorder, Preorder, Availability of ammo and components
jpx2rk replied to Jamie Jackson's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I ordered and rec'd some 22 cal bullets I saw available online, shipping was fast via UPS, a bit pricey on the shipping but bullets are not light so.... I'm ok on primers and powders, but still look whenever I'm out and stop by stores that do stock reloading components. Some of the bullets I'm looking for still aren't available online or in stores, so I get what I can and move on. I can still load and go to the range, just have to be a bit more conservative in the number of trips. LOL. -
At least the bullet was not jammed into the lands, or it's a really really short throated chamber. LOL

Might pose your question about value over on accurateshooterdotcom, lots of LR hunters/shooters over there that might be of help. GLWS

Oh, I've been to the range numerous times, but I've been playing with a 20 Practical and 6x45 I built this past spring as well as a 22/250 I've neglected and never got a good load for. Target says I was just too stubborn to realize the 22/250 didn't like the bullets I was wanting to use.

I've got several rimfire's that don't get shot much, if any. 2 Annies from the mid -80's and some 10/22's. It may have been 6 months since I shot my R700, but can't really say for sure w/o looking at the targets.

I would go with a 3/4 ton since you tow over 3 tons basically every day. 3/4 ton will do the job w/o issue.

Never kept count but I usually visit the range 2x/week the majority of the time, with 10-50 rounds doing load development or just to go to get out of the house. I shoot ABRA and some PS 150 so that is 2-300 rds/month of RF.

I've read several good comments on their accuracy on different forums but have never seen or handled one.

Trench Knife headed to a new home....

Keeping out of trouble usually is full time job for me, and seldom do I succeed in staying out of trouble. -
How many of you guys can actually state the exact # of arsenal items you have in your possession, or will you have to SWAG it, or guesstimate it, or get up and actually wonder thru every room in the house counting them as you go. I'm in the latter for the most part, but that's because I'm an old fart.

It ain't the "golden years", it's the RUST years.

Great, another update and more mass confusion, endless grumbling for at least a week. . Hey that semi-colon thing works. LOL. JK on the upgrades, it's part of life. They don't have any upgrades available for body parts that don't hurt for us old farts do they??? LOL

Your favorite press? (Non progressive)
jpx2rk replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I've got 2 LEE single stage, the oldest (early 80's is for de-priming and swaging) and the newer one has the bushing type set up for easier/faster die changes is used for re-sizing, priming and seating bullets. I don't do pistol ammo, so it's all I need. I look at the turret style but keeping it simple works for me. LOL -
Condolences and prayers. It's a rough road to travel for sure.

Can the guy not block the email notifications coming from the forum??? I miss all the good stuff/happenings around here, so I'm late to the party.

Our local electric provider is considering providing the optic fiber service, but I have no real complaints about Charter internet where I live.

Will you install all of the electronics, etc., or get someone to do that? Hope you get it done soon, and post some pics. You know we like pictures. LOL

I still wonder thru the model airplane aisle at Hobby Lobby when I take the wife there for a yarn run. P51 Mustang is my favorite, built several of them as a kid. Like the P38 Lightning as well, an odd looking plane but still cool IMO. I've thought of getting one to do but don't really have a place now to leave it out as I work on it.
