I've been running an SDB for over 30 years without issue. But you can only load pistol cartridges and they use proprietary Dillon only dies.

Scout’s Cowboy Action Shooting Travels
Eyesa Horg replied to Cowtown Scout, SASS #53540 L's topic in SASS Wire
Welcome home Scout. What a fun trip! -
-
This is what my experience has been with TOs I've shot with.
-
Absolutely. But I don't agree with the TO overriding the majority of spotters to ADD a miss. To point out an edger to benefit the shooter is I guess what I'd hope the TO would do.
-
Agreed, but in this case we added a miss based on the TO taking the spotters downrange. Giving the shooter BOD, seems to me the TO should've taken the count of the majority which was one miss, the other spotter said clean. I guess to me I'd be different if the spotters said 2 and the TO took them down to point out an edger and thus reduce the misses to 1. We call it a "Happy Birthday" when the spotters miss one. However any match I have shot has not had targets repainted for each shooter so the first is the only one with painted targets. We often paint between Posses though.
-
Could be a long day if the TO and 3 spotters keep running down range to verify what 2 spotters called. 2 spotters called 1 miss, the other clean. Shooter gets one miss, next shooter.

Where have I heard that before? Oh yeah, top of the page! Just bustin ya! For some reason I find these exploding people somewhat humorous.

Dang!! All you guys say that! I've tried everything suggested and my brass while clean, is no where near as shiny as when dry tumbling for an hour and a half with Turtle Wax polish in corn cob media. I've been using just car wash for a hour then rinse. Then a 9mm case of LemiShine, 3/4 12ga. hull of StratoSheen and 1 oz. Armor All car wash with wax for 3 hours. Then still need to dry them. If left in the dirty water for any length of time, they turn black and need to start all over with the addition of pins! If I didn't have so much invested in wet, I'd go back to dry in a heartbeat!! One third the time and way shinier! Been depriming now and that's increased my lead levels a little, I think due to being right over the press doing it. Never deprimed with dry tumbling. I gotta be doin sumpin wrong. The not being able to leave them in dirty water is also inconvenient as I need to be able to attend to it immediately when the 3 hours is up. No leaving it overnight like in dry media. If I start early in the day I can get a batch of mine and a batch of Ellie's done before bedtime! Very time consuming and messy!! Always water getting spilled and have to lug the buckets outside to empty as I doubt it is good for my septic!

Grumpy old farts with Guns
Eyesa Horg replied to Jabez Cowboy,SASS # 50129's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I think part of the issue with my ole timer is the motor is only 3hp and I'm bettin it should be at least a 5hp. When I got the unit, about 35 years ago it a jury rigged motor on it that failed years later. Going by the numbers on it, Granger said it was a 3hp. So that's what I put on it back then. It was in a heated garage then,now it's on the unheated side of my new garage. For what I use it these days, it'll work! Will check out the hard start cap however. God knows what's in it for oil! -

Which now that you remind me,also likely has gallons of water in the tank,although I don't seem to accumulate any in the water separator. -

I'm hearing that!! Mine is a really old Keystone! Wish they made rebuild kits for the compressor. It used to run a service station back in the 60s and 70s. Shuts off at 175 and on at 135 and easily keeps up with anything I do. Only issue is it doesn't like the cold and runs slow and clanky and will often trip the breaker! Amazingly heavy apparatus! -
It used to be in the menu after signing in. "Completed sales" IIRC
