you don't see many deals on any dillon set. the used one goes all most the same as a new one. i all ways look for a good price on any dillon items, but the used market is priced high. i just buy new and reload on.

I have been looking for some to test in my Anschutz and my cz 455. I am down to 200 rounds of rws r 100. next week tn small bore state match will eat that up.

the prelube is needed for match ammo. high dollar match 22 lr ammo has a wax/oil coat on them. it is needed for getting the best group during the match over the low cost ammo. get any high dollar brand ammo like rws r100, eley tenex, lapua, sk plus, normal, etc,,, it will have the coating. I am talking about the 15 to 20 dollars plus for a box of 50 rounds type of ammo. geco ammo is made by ruag (old dynamit nobel ag company), the same company that makes rws ammo. it looks like geco semi auto ammo is the same/close to the rws r-100 ammo ($16.50 a box of 50). for matches I want my 22 lr ammo lube up for that winning group.

Geco 22 lr ammo is made by the same company that makes RWS 22 lr ammo. Good ammo at a lower price over RWS. -
I carry the p3at in my back pocket. Have been for many mango seasons. A good pocket leather holster is the trick. I drop a second mag in my front pocket. I got my kel tec long before ruger came out with the lcp (little copy pistol). Never had any problems. It gets wet each day in the summer. It just works and I have to change holsters every day.

back in 72/73 i got one for $75.00 new with several boxes of ammo. i guy i knew got it and had rent coming up. his wife pitch a fit when she found out he got a new deer gun and could not pay the rent. he did not even get a chance to shoot it. i paid the rent, took the gun and ammo home. still got it, one hell of a gun for just about anything you can get into around here. i get my ammo from wal mart and sometimes reload it. the 35 rem and 30-30 lever guns are the best all around rifle in my book.

Anschutz and/or a CZ. For scope I would look for a old steel tube Weaver T scope made in El Paso.

went today and got a box of 22lr for $18.99, the 325 round box. they had several. but that was at 1pm. everything else on same price as sportsman's warehouse. but guns are a little higher. got to see and get my picture taken with mountain man. all in all not a bad place to go and look around. -
i keep a kel tec p3at in my back pocket all the time. small and is a great carry pocket gun. i like kel tec's. i got several. i picked them up from people that stated they were junk. got them cheap. yes some had some small problem that i fixed. other were the first owner "limo wristing" them. got a p40 and it is a great gun.

drove by on i75 today around 5pm and the parking lot was full of vehicles. people were lined up across the front and north side of the store. -
sometime i use a plastic tarp to catch my brass. cheap and easy. sometime i don't and i go on a brass hunting trip.

plus one on the high price 22 lr ammo sitting on the shelves. you want to see some high price 22 lr ammo setting on the shelves go to benton shooters in benton tennessee. they got a whole end cap full of high price 22 lr ammo. been there for some time because the dust has covered the boxes. i was in wal mart today and no 22 lr ammo. the guy that works there said they had some last tuesday. he all ways makes that statement.

i get many reloads with my 45 acp brass. i lose more in the grass than i split. 45 acp brass will last a long time if you don't chop them up with the lawn mower.

I have done brakes jobs on them before and other small work. Go over to Hoye tractor site. They got a rebuild kit for Yanmar. When I need Yanmar parts I get them from Hoye. They also got a depart section to show you how to do all most everything.

a 90 model to 00 model mazda b and/or ford ranger is a good truck. starting in 1994 the ford ranger and mazda b series truck were the same. a friend got a mazda in 2000 and under the everything said ford. it was one tough well made truck. ran and drove great. never gave him any problems.

the price is in line of what i have found at the name brand box stores in my area. was in rome georgia last week. stop at dunham's sports in the mall to look around. they got a large gun/reloading section. they had aguila 22 lr standard velocity for $5.49 a box of 50. four boxes a day. not a great price, but better than the scrapers. i paid $5.99 a box of 50 for aquila rifle match the other day at sportsmans warehouse. i was out of my normal match ammo (rws target and/or r100) and need some for a upcoming rifle match. dunham's had lots of other brands, sizes, and types of ammo. 9 mm was priced cheap. it looks like $4.00 to $5.99 a box of 50 is what we are going to see this summer when we can find it. one day i will make it to wal-mart and beat the "butt heads" to the 22 ammo and score me some cheap ammo.

Chattanooga folks-- Knife sharpening? Where?
frankmako replied to tartanphantom's topic in Knives, Lights, EDC Gear
go to frost cutlery @ 6861 Mountain View Rd, Ooltewah. it is off I-75 one exit north past vw. at one time they would do them for people. several years ago they did a knife for me. I went inside the old show room and asked a worker. he took my knife to the back and 15 minutes later I have a sharp knife at no charge. so try them. -
yes they are everywhere. coming in the house. making mounds in the yard. making mounds in the hay fields. they are all over the place. for the last two weeks I have been on a killing spree, but I am losing the battle.

still hard to find any here. sometimes sportsman's and academy sports has it. but they have a low box rate. stopped at one of my local wal marts and asked the manager for some. the manager stated they got some yesterday. it is all ways yesterday at wal mart. the manager stated the same guys were lined up before 7am to buy it. they get the heads up from the wal mart app. the manager stated some get to the store at 5 am to wait at the gun counter for the ammo to be put out at 7 am. one day it will level out and the stores will be full. I hope the same old guys lose their butts and will have to eat all the 22 lr ammo they got for resale when the supply and prices come back to normal.

i am a glock man. carry one every day. but i just don't see it with the g43. held one and it just to big for me. there are other smaller single stack 9mm guns at a better price out there. will i get one. i might, but it will be sometime. i will get a used one at a lower price.

the police did a good job. dirt bag nut job with a rifle, the best way to stop the problems is with one of your best weapons, a vehicle.
