  1. Your Dr. May have cleared you as he is comfortable enough it won't do damage. However the recoil, position and movements may irritate your pain. I'd recommend based on my experience go to range shoot few rounds see how it feels before doing full match.

  2. Everyone meet Ricky III. Soon to be 2 year old black lab. Canine Companions have graciously matched him with me as a service dog.

    Please ignore the ugly lump sitting with him. :D1721400552193.jpg

  3. I did not know until a couple years ago how they got classified. A friend who has sinced passed was retired navy. So I asked him one day. The class is determined by first named and christened of the series. All the years I've spent hearing them referred to by class not knowing I found this fascinating.

  4. I'm currently working on 410 load in brass shells. Life is making long process.  I've got test loads charged, nitro cards and lubed fiber wads. Haven't had time to complete and take to range. I'm hoping will cycle in my Shockwave but also have bond Derringer and stoeger coach in 410.

    I Bore sight bolt actions first by securing them pulling the bolt and looking through. Line crosshairs in the neighborhood of what I see through the barrel and then do that

    I've tried that but not much luck

    :ph34r:  Discovered best recipes for cast bullets for my 6.5 Swedish Mauser require bar solder.  Called the likely (to me) local sources to no avail.  Shipping from metals suppliers is probably scary.  Wonder what others are paying so I can reconcile need with purse.........

    Had 1 bar given to me long ago and used it for experimental batch and got a nice 140 grain bullet at 17.5 Brinnel which 'should' work well.  Need more.

    Try rotometals. Some of the products ship free. '2 bags lead shot' but has to be minimum of 2 bags.

    If you are just using one press I would mount it to a piece of 3/4 plywood from underneath with counter sunk screws then you can use the soft jaw clamps and clamp it to your dining table or a counter top.  

    If you are going to use more than one press like a metallic press and a shotgun press I would mount an inline fabrication quick mount to the plywood then base plates for each press.  When not in use the setup can be stored in a closet.

    How we loaded shotgun shells when I was kid

    I have my Lee APP press mounted on a sturdy bar stool made from 2x4s.  It sets in a spare bedroom. Shown setup for bullet sizing.

    I've considered building this. Texas summer is no joke trying to load in the garage. But this barstool/ pedestal may be my next project
