Go West

I just checked online and SPP a minimum of $75 or so for 1K. They are having a sale on Cheddite primers for $88, but for 1500, not 1000. Reclaimed shot for $52 or so. LPP are available, but more expensive. I just ordered SPP, Cheddites and powder, but I thought I might check them out. Haven't heard of Bruno's before.

Primer prices at Bruno's?

Great stages and targets. Kudos to Bob and Johnny once again. Thanks to all the out of area shooters for coming out and playing in our backyard. We're glad to have you anytime. Nothing beats good shooting, good people and having a good time.

Irish Pat, I responded to you. Text me if you have any questions. I did receive another offer, but you have first dibs if you want it. Go West

Added price to text, so it's in two places.

Re up

Dillon Square Deal .45 ACP. Will take to Tumbleweeds shoot this Friday or Saturday in Tombstone. Can deliver to EOT on Wednesday if need be. Comes with Dillon blue cover and box of parts/spares. Cash. No shipping. $300

Time to buy another 8 pounder. Currently use Titegroup, but open to others. I would like to be able to load most/all of my handgun cartridges. Mostly reload .32 mag., .38 Special, .45 Schofield, .45 ACP and .45 Colt. Do some .380 ACP and 9 mm. Lower cost appreciated.

I replaced my indexer two years ago. I've gone through most of the parts in my parts kit and should order another. I miss being a short drive from their store.

I have two Lyman trimmers I would be happy to sell.

If you don't want to trim brass, just use the Lee Factory Crimp die.

I don't trim pistol brass, ever. There are more fruitful endeavors than this.

Put a pop-up reminder in your calendars, I just did.

What you describe is a warranty issue. What does Taurus say? I would guess you have insufficient clearance for the rim (max .06").

I just opened the application from Billy Boots' comment. Try that again.

No SWC for me and OAL depends on the rifle. A '73 I had liked shorter than maximum Iength. My Lightning in .45 likes them at 1.60." My Rossi doesn't care and will feed empty cases. I seat and crimp in 2 stages using the Lee 4 die carbide set.

Do any of you use a bottle support for MEC shotshell presses? The reason I ask is my shot bottle broke at the neck. I've used a Sizemaster for 3-4 years without one. It was a bit chilly in the garage and may have made it brittle. Will the bottle support help? Thanks in advance.

I started reloading with a Lee Pro 1000 and switched to a Dillon 650 over 20 years ago and never regretted it. I do use Lee dies with a Factory Crimp Die and like them. I used to buy Remington Game loads when I started since they were under $2.75/box when you bought them by the case. They definitely aren't that price anymore and use a MEC Sizemaster now. I'm happy for those folks that like their reloading gear. Me? I enjoy using mine. I wouldn't mind a nice progressive shotshell press, but can't justify the price.

Count us in for both days. The "check's in the mail."

The only time the extractor groove was cleaned was when a new extractor was fitted. I think it is a 2004 model.

Good luck on the hunt and trip down under. Best wishes on the surgery. We'll miss you.

My latest dry tumbling additions are paint thinner and Nufinish car polish. An hour or so works great and you don't need to dry, rinse or deprime. Corn cob and walnut media are used depending on my inclination.
