Re: Dillon 1050 w/ 1200 setup

All good info. I like the idea but I am thinking about doing all the brass prep on the 1050 since it swages the primer pocket. (such a tedious process) Maybe I will just have to pick up an additional tool head and set it up to load with.

Dillon 1050 w/ 1200 setup

Anyone had luck setting up a Dillon 1050 with a 1200 so you can trim 223 brass, and load all in one pass? Also if anyone has a line on a 1050 for sale I am looking for another one.

Re: She's letting me buy a new toy!!!! (What NV scope to ge

Budget....I am trying to keep it under the 3k mark. I am thinking the ATN 2 Gen+ is what I am leaning toward, because I can get a LOT of IR Ill for the extra 1K it takes to jump to to the 3Gen. Has anyone used NV with and ND Green laser light? I have one and was wondering if it would work for illumi...

She's letting me buy a new toy!!!! (What NV scope to get?)

Just like the post says, the wife has authorized purchase of a new NV scope. I was looking at the ATN PS 22 or 40 in Gen II CGT mainly because of $$$ and reviews I have read. Does anyone think it is worth the extra $$$ to go Gen III for hog hunting out to 200-300yrds? (I will be using this in my 308...

Re: Night Vision or Thermal Scope?

I like the setup. How far is the feeder and what model thermal is the camera?

Re: 300 BLK kill pics.

I have a small hunting operation in Vernon Texas (up by the Red River) and I am looking at offering VERY reasonable doe hunts next year (I need to cull about 200). I am only charging because I have to have one of my guys there. My average doe is 5-8yrs old and 180+lbs, and I encourage kids. It is to...

Re: my 300

For the record this is me hating you....the gun is nice....the Shiner under it is what I would really like. I am deployed and would almost give my left "pinky" for a 6 pack of Shiner right now.

Re: Biggest Hog Shot with 300BLK?

I have a small hunting outfit up by Vernon. I have properties on the Red River and some the back up to a place called Wagoner Ranch. We use ND lights now and our record was 127 in one night/morning. Although we also drove about 110miles total and no one can really say how many rounds we burned (from...
