Hmmm, I know what you mean, its to cold to bother going to the shooting range to punch holes in paper. I was out this weekend, as the area where I do my gopher shooting has had some wolf kills recently. I spent several hours calling in different spots but heard the next day that the neighbors had th...

I found the use of lubricant made a difference. By running the case mouth over the expander in the dry condition I found about half of the trial cases slid easily over the mandrel, not sloppy but a bit looser than I wanted. But when I lightly lube (Imperial Sizing Wax) the expander ball I get a nice...

Some how I don't see this relationship lasting

She has long legs and plenty of curves but I could never get used to that nose. Maybe I am just to picky.

When I was a kid back home in Saskatchewan every coyote we saw looked like that or worse, the mange hit them really hard for several years and the population dropped off noticeably. Eventually they became immune to the strain of mange or else the mange run out of hosts and dies out, I really don't k...

I just found a list of case capacities!! http://kwk.us/cases.html Its funny cause I was trying to find a partial list that I had found earlier so I put in the same Google info and the list I wanted didn't come up (even with exact inputs) so I just check out some of the new results and I found above ...

I am just wondering if anyone knows the "official" case capacity for the .204 Ruger. A guy who has the QuickLOAD software plugged my load info into the program to see how close it was to my results and while it was very close in performance (only a difference of 2.4% fps) the program said ...

Glad to hear you have it sorted out for you. The bedding, recrowning and such tweaking is somewhat enjoyable to do if you already have an accurate rifle and you want to try and squeeze out a bit more accuracy. BUT...its gotta be a pain in the butt, not to mention expensive, if you have to do it all ...

Nice work!!

You are really making me hate being in the city. I miss the good old days on the farm of shooting pigeons off of bin roofs from the doorway of the heated shop. It helped the winter pass.

It looks like you could do some waterfowl hunting from you deck as well???

Another problem to watch for if you've spun a few tight fitting necks on the mandrel is galling This is actually what I was concerned with. While it hasn't happened yet I thought that it could happen so that is why I run the expander ball through it before placing on the mandrel. Did you inside nec...

This is good to know. I was planning to purchase some new unprimed brass (so I could be sure that they are all from the same lot), then prep them all and use them exclusively for paper punching. My options locally were Win, Rem, (about $30 per 50)or Nosler (about $55 per 50). From what I have been r...

Brass has been FL re sized, annealed, trimmed to length, primer pocket uniformed, and flash hole deburred. The brass I am working with will probably not be neck turned. I have yet to check neck thicknesses on the majority of my brass but the ones I am testing the neck turning on (discards with dente...

I am just beginning to do some neck turning with my recently purchased Forster equipment. Just curious as to how "snug" the case neck should fit onto the mandrel . Most of my FL resized cases take a fair bit of effort to slide them onto the mandrel, and I can feel the resistance when turni...

I almost wish it were true because this would alienate a huge number of voters from the Democratic Party. The very idea that those over 60 fit this description... " with all of their physical ailments and increasing senility..... " I think this would offend everyone even remotely close to ...

Good one!! I haven`t hunted coyotes but a few times and every time they seem to catch me off guard or do something I never expected. It was quick thinking to bark and make the shot in the short time you had. So now you are a grandpa. After my sister and her husband gave my folks their first grandchi...

A fellow on another forum told of his experience with one of the Bulzeyepro ones. This is his only problem with it Big problem is that, on some scopes, you can't adjust the eyepiece focus to have both the reticle and image in focus. This also means you just can't take it off and shoot. You have to r...
