@GeoDudeFlorida, Got the package you sent today. Thanks for your generosity. The cases and bullets will make my buddy very happy.

.45LC enroute to Zahn & .45 AR enroute to GeoDudeFlorida. Used those orphan 9mm's as filler. I love flat rate boxes!

GeoDudeFlorida - the 45 AR is yours. thanks for playing!

Yours, Zahn.. I've got your shipping info PM. Will try to get them out tomorrow.

Ok, let's see if we can get back on topic here. Seems that nobody wants/needs 9mm brass. Fair enough. Can I interest anyone in either of the following: .45 LC - 26 cases (tumbled/deprimed, not sized) .45 LC - 20 cases (Hornaday nickel plated, once fired) or .45 Auto Rim - 142 cases...

Maybe I don't shoot well enough for any of that to matter, but at least I can be relatively certain that the ammo isn't to blame for any misplaced shots.

Likewise. That's how I was taught. There is variability in primer pocket sizes (diameter, depth) as well as wall thicknesses which impacts neck tension. Plus, as an engineer, I prefer working to a standard process. It makes troubleshooting less daunting if something goes wrong. That's also...

Awww!

Yeah, just habit I guess. Figure all 3 bags would go out as one PIF. Kinda costly otherwise.

Finished a spring kick-start of 9mm brass prep. Totalled just over 2300 cases tumbled, de-primed, sized, & sorted by headstamp. I just got into the habit of processing my brass like this. So priming sessions will usually be done in sets of 100 to 500 of the same headstamp. At the moment, that...

@jmorris - Nice! If it were my rifle this setup would definitely be a contender for a permanent workstation on the bench. 2 questions: 1) Do you have any issues with trueness (perpendicularity) of the cut relative to the case body, or is the slider deep enough to stabilize the case while...

There seem to be a wide array of trimming jigs adaptable to the Harbor Freight 2" mini chop saw posted on Ebay. They are ranging in price from less than $10 to about $30. Does anyone have some insight to how well any of these work in practice? Should I be looking a other sources for a better...

I was originally using Win 231 with Berry's 124gr HPFP plated rounds with a variety of cases and Rem SP 1 1/2 primers. Couldn't make power factor for IDPA while staying within max recommended charge. Enter CFE-P. Found a sweet spot at 5.5 grains CFE-P with Blazer range brass, Rem SP 1 1/2...

Tinybob, Got the .357 cases and bullets last on Saturday - just in time for Christmas! Thanks a bunch! Ed
