Re: NRA moving to Texas

I have to agree, Wayne in the mix spoils the results. His indulgence in his own fortune at the expense of the membership reeks. I am sure that also figured into the NRA wanting to come the Texas. Didn't they buy a mansion in the DFW area for him? All the funds request from the NRA goes into the tras...

Re: the Covid got me

That all went well, and I was suspended from shooting until the end of October. Better then ever, now! I hope you make a strong recovery and get b...

Re: Spent case damage

If it bothers you, a piece of self sticking velcro or a pad used to keep cabinets from slamming stuck at the right point on the upper will soften the blow of the collision!

Re: Flare case mouth?

If you flare the case mouth you probably need a Lee crimp die, as well. Flat bases always are harder to seat but probably more accurate as well.

Re: W296 Sun Exposure

Every time someone brings up powder degradation due to heat or vibration, I think of a GI ammo can rattling around on/in a military vehicle in hotter then hell Iraq or similar spots in Africa. Not the first report of a problem with the ammo that I have heard of. I have primers that are 40 to 50 year...

You guys must be really anal or have time to burn worrying instead of at the range! The primers pockets are fine. Been shooting and reloading for 45 years and when you use brass that has primers "crimped" in you can swage or chamfer the pockets enough to get a primer to seat and your good ...
