  5-100 round packs. I'm with you. A box of 1000 is the very least I would drive to the store to purchase.

I think I'm happier aimlessly accumulating rather than trying to plan for any "collection".

I find flannel makes better patches than t shirt material. Don't throw away mama's old pj's; cut them into patches!

  I'm just hard headed I guess. $4.29 per hundred isn't exactly a steal, but I consider it reasonable for the times.   Those little trays don't stack for storage very well. The boxes do.

I bought a Lee Anniversary kit nearly 20 years ago, with the idea of upgrading once money permitted. So far, the money situation has improved, but I haven't found a need for the upgrade. Just because Lee stuff is cheaper doesn't make it junk.   I'd buy Lee dies, even if all the brands were the same price. I like the way the lock rings work better.

I've no gripe about limits either.It does seem that 1000 would be a much more logical number than 500 for primers, however.

I stopped at this store today, and of course they were all but out of powder, bullets, etc. What I did see was a large stack of CCI 400 primers. I asked to purchase 1000, and the lady told me she'd only sell me 500. WTF??!! They come in a box of 1000. It wasn't like I was trying to buy them out of stock. I left without buying anything. I'm not sure if I'll ever go back or not. It is their store, and they can operate it any way they see fit, but to me, that defies logic.

I was thinking about getting one of these myself.                                                                           http://www.walmart.com/ip/Seat-Back-Gun-Case-in-Black/8283571

Most reloading manuals have a pretty extensive description of the whole process. Modern Reloading by Richard Lee is great at explaining the process in detail, yet easy to follow. It's reloading data, however, could be more extensive. A google search will show several free reloading guides via PDF files.   Also, feel free to ask questions here. Were you closer, I would be happy to have you over and walk through the process with you. I expect there are many youtube videos as well.

I think pre 82 pennies would be a better place to place your efforts if you are so inclined.                                        http://www.parkpennies.com/penny/penny.htm   There is 145 pennies per pound, and they are 95% copper. The spot price for copper is $3.4805 per pound. 3.4805x.95=$3.30 per pound of pennies. The zinc spot price would be neglegible. This makes the pre 82 penny worth roughly 2.2 cents; twice it's legal tender value.

What happens to a Glock after 4 years? Do they melt? I do not care for them simply because the are hideous looking, but one thing I've never heard about them is that they were unreliable.

I don't trim 9mm. I do trim most every bottleneck case I load.   Straightwalled pistol cases don't tend to stretch much like high powered, bottleneck rifle cases do.

Probably due to the sequester. I know very few who own, and almost noone who reloads for the 30 Carbine. Also, it isn't deer season, so I'm at a loss as to why nobody has flatpoint .308 bullets.

Midway and Grafs are both showing 110 grain 30 carbine bullets, and any 30-30 bullets out of stock. Is there no end to what people are hoarding??!!?

Probably due to the sequester. :shrug:

I had an Accord that had the engine block crack. My oil was going into the coolant. Have you checked that?   What is it about new tires, brakes, and timing belt that brings on this sort of thing? Mine even had a full tank of gas.

The more difficult a bullet is to push down the bore, the LESS powder needed to push it. It sounds counterintuitive, but more resistance=a chance to build more pressure with less powder burning.

Well, you certainly ain't a "TATOR".

This guy seems to like the Rossi. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00Gz6FcY5Vg

A 158 grain wadcutter on top of 2.7-3.0 grains of Bullseye is the standard target load. Be sure to crimp!

Ask at the Nashville Zoo. They have it everywhere, and I have considered planting some as well. It looks really nice.

Thanks. Not many folks recognize the scope. I really like them, and you can run across them now and again well worth the money.   I'd sure like to see pics of the 22 Hornet mentioned above. I'll bet I'm not alone.

You mean like this?
