45acpuser, I'm crimping because the bullets I bought have a cannelure and I was told that you have to crimp in that case. I am using a Dillon .223 taper crimp die and a Dillon .223 Rem case gauge to check. I've also been using the Lee case trimmer with gauge spindle attached to trim them to...

Hi all, I just purchased a Dillon 650 and I am having some issues setting up the crimp die. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated! I bought the 650 with the .223 Rem conversion kit, along with a .223 die set. Following the directions, I was humming along calibrating all of the...

Sounds like some really valuable training. I've been wanting to look around here for some classes like that. If you don't mind me asking, what was the price? website? thanks, sch40

+2 This was the point that I was finally able to convince my friends that Scalia is not a Strict Contructionist like he says he is. -sch40

Agreed. More of my money wasted, more trouble for me, bigger, more dangerous black market, bigger, more dangerous government bureaucracy, no measurable positive impact.

Does anyone know who is on the Ways And Means committee? I'd like to know where to find this type of information so that I can write my congresscritter if he's on it (or even if he's not).

Claire Wolfe recommended it? I guess that's yet another recommendation for Claire!

Right now, since I'm a resident of St. Louis county, I have my permit from Florida. I loved the way that the St. Charles police chief side-stepped the funding nonsence and issued a separate fee. If I lived in St. Chuck, I would get a permit from them. I like how they don't play dirty politics...

finally! This is an excellent suprise! I was just talking to some people in a local gun store who were saying the city and county would never start issuing. By the tone in the article, it seems even after the modifications are passed, they will sit on their heels for a while, but how long can...

paypal should be in! Thanks again, Correia --sch40

I'll take two hats: one black and one OD green. The PayPal will be sent this afternoon when I get home. Thanks! -sch40

All you have to do is wait! Dollars are getting cheaper by the day! :evil: sorry -- OT I'll shut up now :)

I find I shoot better when wearing a good pair of gloves. That said, I've been practicing more without them lately, because the chances of me wearing gloves in a self-defense situation is slim to nothing.

Woah, there! Is the author daft? ...yeesh!

I hear really good things about the Walther P22. I've never fired it, but they're really comfortable (and adjustable), small, and I hear they are tackdrivers, despite the small barrel (compared to revolver .22LRs). Oh yeah: they come with an internal "key" lock that should help with the PRK issue.
