gun sane

Everglades is usually my go to, @DUXBUSTER, but I thought surely there's somebody in TGOLand that's overstocked. Remember, I got cash money!

Thanks, @ArmyBrat61 I've got a deal working with another member but I'll keep Bass Pro in mind. I'd rather help a TGO'r sell his stock, but it's nice to have a backup.

I've never used pulled bullets before, but they're just for training anyway. Thanks, Darrell.

I could use 250-500 qty. 9mm bullets of any standard grain. I prefer plated, but will take metal case. No cast lead. I can trade you with 40 cal. if you need 'em. Knoxville area FTF.

Amen to that. I practice a shell placement system that helps me to keep track of where I'm at in the process: 1. I start with the case mouths up in the tray and turn each one mouth down after priming. When I see the primers on all the cases, I know I didn't miss any. 2. The cases go mouth up after each gets its powder drop and I verify the level with a flashlight after the run is finished. 3. I push the bullet snugly into every case before seating to keep out contaminants and prevent accidental spillage. 4. The cartridge is placed in a separate container after the bullet is seated so I don't mix them up with the others. Following this process, I've never had a kaboom or a fizzle.

Remember the "ladder method." Start with the minimum load data and work up to the maximum in tenths of grain increments. I usually find a load my guns like somewhere in the middle. It saves powder and excessive wear on the firearm, too. There are many horror stories out there from guys who started on the high end and sorely regretted it. If you can shoot in a place that allows you to set up a chronograph, buy one. It's a great tool for finding acceptable velocities and estimating pressures.

Glad to meet you, jaypug! You're the kind of immigrant we need in TN.

Yeah, it's very dangerous. But the good news is, there's no such thing as an AR thumb.

For the first 20 years my resume looked like the Yellow Pages--newspaper writing, ad agency, hot-shot delivery and other odd jobs. When the wife found me, I was a scumbag scuba diving instructor. A couple of years later the Lord found me and eventually brought me into airline maintenance and then training mechanics. I retired off that after 16 years and now live comfortably with my retired nurse/wife. Yes, you can switch careers in later life, but I recommend doing so with Divine approval.

I believe it's clean, but in the interest of public safety I went to YouTube for the source. You only get serial spamming for your trouble there.
