    How useful is a single stage press?

    Put my turret press away when I stopped loading for handguns. I currently use a Redding single stage, since my son scoffed up my old Bonanza Co-Ax. I'm retired and I have plenty of time on my hands....Essex

    Truth or Fiction?

    I call Bull If I'm at the keyboard I can shoot any sized group I want to. I know what it takes to shoot a 1" group at 200 yards. I firmly believe that a lot of 'Super Groups" are shot at fifty yards rather than one hundred. Beware of ex snipers and those that did fantastic at Camp Perry...

    CCW in Bars?

    Why not? I seldom go to bars, but I can polish off a few Martinis and dont turn into a Jerk. Again, it's back to personable responsible responsibility...Essex

    Have You Ever Been Called Out ?

    Never. If the StatePolice or the Sherriff's Dept. were called they'd just chuckle. Essex

    Do you own a silencer?

    None. Absolutelyno need for one. In my state it's only one of the three firearms laws on the books....Essex

    What Are Your State's Shooting Qualifications?

    Thank God for Vermont and Alaska.... Absolutely none. It all goes back to personal responsibly. If You have a lousy shoot, It's your fault. Essex

    Has Anyone ever shot a 1903 Pederson rifle?

    I have the rifle but neither the device or the ammunition. A few of the devices may be in collector's hands. I understand 65 million rounds of the ammunition was destroyed. Good luck tracking one down. Essex

    Pattern 14 Enfield

    Maybe not as issued, but I'd like one any way. A really fine rifle that would make the .303 come alive. Essex
