  1. using an old MEC 8567 Grabber.  Works fine for me.  I can load 100 hulls in an hour, taking my time.  That's from walking into the garage, loading, cleaning up, boxing, and walking out.

     

    I do reside with a sizemaster when I get back from matches--that's when I sort/discard hulls.

     

    Also run them all through a QuikLoader to put the 3° crimp at the top.  These two are off the clock.  QuikLoader: https://coyotesmercantile.com/products/quikloader?srsltid=AfmBOorr4_xqoVeZSqgVy_Hr-ltm2YtodxskgdACEQymSKDSME3wEXjs   just a happy customer

     

    I enjoy the reloading process and see it as another hobby

  2. from the rules at the top of the page under SASS Wire, last four lines:

     

     . . . fundraising efforts, links to other bulletin boards or chat rooms, and plain rude behavior and will delete such posts without notice. Repeat offenders will be banned from the SASS Wire without notice. SASS in no way endorses or guarantees any information posted on these pages. All postings are deleted after 30 days.

    guess I don't understand what qualifies as a "posting"

     

    Little help, guys

  3. I use a MEC Super Sizer on all mine first thing, and that's where I wipe them off and check for "bad" hulls.  Probably don't need to use it, but it gives me something to do while the wife is figuring out my next set of chores

  4. had a Mae West on my first jump--the reserve worked fine.  Then I noticed it was headed into the main.  pulled it down a bit and tried to shake it out like a bed sheet.  It slowly rose and finally inflated, this time outside the main.

     

    funny thing, with the reserve deployed, your attachment points are on your front chest so you'll hanging at an angle with your feet, butt and back closest to the ground.  The good news, I didn't miss the ground.

     

    The remaining 4 went fine.

     

    and Caprock Kid is right, a night jump is wonderful, the moon shining through your main making it look gold in color.  And not much wind

  5. we use Practiscore with cheap tablets also

     

    my one gripe is you can add categories but they go at the bottom of the list--this means you can't alphabetize them and with all the categories SASS shooters can up with, it's hard to find these club-added ones.

     

    small gripe

  6. and agree with Blackwater:  do the PT,  it will make all the difference in the world--some fellow patients didn't and basically have lost use of their arm

  7. how about having it done twice?  yep, left shoulder, tore it again when I tried too much, too soon.

     

    with the second one, 6 months and I could do "normal" light duty stuff around the house without thinking--before was always very aware of doing too much.

     

    after 9 months was back to the best it was going to be.  Can do shooting and reloading without problems, but no longer do any heavy work with it
