  1. I would say that doesn’t count for this year, so you owe it to yourself to rectify that situation
  2. The primer pockets are smaller , you can ream them , swage them or just throw them away. I guess you could also load them really hot and expand them that way Ive never purchased any of their primers but I would imagine they are also slightly smaller than what we’re used to in the US . I got a bunch of their brass for free and just used a uniforming tool on a drill , it doesn’t take long but swaging on a progressive press would probably be faster, just like using brass that has crimped primers .
  3. I also have one of these and really like it
  4. I used to be that good , possibly better. I did all the tig welding for the gun shop I worked at. I used to spend about a half a day every week welding up everyone’s parts. This guy learned at the same place I did . Lassen college, they have a gunsimithng welding degree/certificate. I was told they were the first gunsmithing school to offer it . I would guess all the schools do now . Unfortunately I haven’t touched a Tig welder in 20 years. And welding is a skill that requires practice and repetition. I’ve welded up many single action hammers and triggers , that jig sure would have been nice to have . But that’s the beauty of having a Tig machine, if you mess up you just have to do it again. Some of the things they can do with the new micro Tig machines are amazing and with an even smaller heat effected zone . There’s many old classics that have been saved by a Tig machine.
