  1. Trial and error. It would be different from rifle to rifle due to differing barrel harmonics. It does sound like an interesting project.
  2. I don't know, but don't you think a fool causing enough trouble at a gup shop might get shot? If these people feel the need to occupy something; why not a job? Is the good revrend Al just trying to start a full on race war?
  3. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :up:
  4. As long as you guys keep voting for these idiots simply to "keep the Democrats out", you'll continue to reap the same reward. An "R" behing one's name doesn't mean a damned thing.
  5. Well, there you go! They're pretty much all gun related.
  6. Make you own. Thats what several of us here do.
  7. Nice guns, and your leatherwork is looking great as well!
  8. I think you just did.
  9. I think you'll need something to trim and deburr cases, and sooner or later, a bullet puller. Grunt67 is correct. The FIRST thing you need is a good reloading manual.
  10. I agree. If you study a bit of American history, real American history; not the politically correct bs taught in public schools, you'll have little doubt that the founding of this country was divinely inspired. The further we as a country drift away from God, the worse things will get. I fear something catastrophic will have to happen to make us change course. I further fear that event isn't very far in the future.
  11. Well said, men. We appreciate your service to our country more than words can express.
  12. This type thing is what gets my panties in a bind regarding law enforcement. Let your kid squeal a tire, and he'll have to pay. This guy just wants his property back, and gets the equalivent of being held up for ransom.
  13. He said the police told him he could do this, but they knew the guys, and he had zero chance of ever recouping his money from them. This just doesn't seem fair to me.
  14. She does have an equine quality about her.
  15. A guy who does some work for me had some steel reiforcement bars stolen from a project in Westmoreland. The theifs were pulled over in Scottsville Kentucky for drunk driving I was told. Anyway, after determining where the steel came from, the police called the owner to inform him they had his steel. When he asked about picking it up, he was informed he would have to pay a towing bill that equated to more than the cost of the rebar. Is this correct? Why wouldn't the theives be responsible for the bill? It sure doesn't sound right to me. If I were him, I'd likely become a problem in Scottsville, Kentucky.
  16. I hate most all commercials except the ones with the Progressive chick, and the "Yella Fella". Political ads top my list of things that p1zz me off. Also, the erection medicine ad where the man and woman are sitting in two bathtubs, outside, and holding hands. What the h3ll is that all about??!!??
  17. Don't overlook a used rifle in good condition. Being so far form deer season, you can likely find a reasonable price on one right now. Often, they come with scope, sling, case, ammo, etc. Nope! If you are insistant on only spending $150, I'd recommend you peruse ebay for a used Leupold 4x M8, or an older Redfield.
  18. dOLOMITE Dolomite lives what he speaks! This is a truly good bunch of people here.
  19. I don't currently own any centerfire Remingtons, but all I've shot have been very accurate. I picked up my first Savage bolt a few weeks back. Just now starting to work up a load for it, and I believe it's going to be a shooter. The first load I tried: ...and the second: For the price, I can't complain about that. As for caliber, if you aren't reloading, I'd suggest a 243, 270, 308, or 30-06, as the ammo is very common, relatively inexpensive, and can often be found on sale at attractive prices just before deer season. There isn't near as much difference in these calibers as people would have you believe. I favor odd calibers, but I also reload. The accutrigger is pretty nice, but i can't tell it's much better than factory Remington or Winchester triggers. Savage does claim to have the fastest locktime of any production bolt action rifle. If you'd be willing to save up a bit more, I would recommend a Model 70 Winchester.
  20. Don't use the phrase "This is how they do it in Indiana", and you'll be o.k.
  21. I like nickel plated brass. I use lizard bedding from a pet store for media, and add a little Nu Finish car polish. You can get a feel for how much brass yours will tumble, because it'll start to slow down with too many. Dolomite gave some good advice. You don't need to fill the tumbler with media; just nearly cover the cases. Also, be sure to throw the media out when it gets dirty. You can tell when, because it takes longer to clean.
  22. It'll probably work if you are easy with it. I always thought the "o" ring style presses looked to be a lot stronger. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/176078/lee-challenger-breech-lock-single-stage-press
  23. You ever need more than six rounds of ammo in any of your gunfighting?
  24. ...probably not.
