    Raising the rear rest

    I have about 30 stall mats. I have no desire to cut one. Looking for donuts now.

    Raising the rear rest

    I have a Caldwell portable shooting bench that works out for me that has a hard plastic top. I have a heavy tripod rest for the front with pointed leveling screws that bite into the plastic and holds its position well. For the rear I have an old Eagle Brand rabbit ear bag with a rough out...

    help picking a press

    I look in each case before seating with my 550 and also my T7. Of all the speed gains offered by the various presses not checking each case before seating isn't one to be sacrificed. I have never had a squib.

    IWB Holster Design

    Kydex is hard and feels hard when worn. Leather is softer. The flatter the holster is the more comfortable. As JTQ says these are not comfortable worn at 3:00.

    RCBS cracked at top??

    By all means weld away on your RCBS press. All will be well. After all a couple of pop cans welded together proves anything can welded and it will turn out just as good as new. If not better.

    RCBS cracked at top??

    If the heat on a the aluminum too high the metal will just disappear. It will blow out. "Oh, by the way, the car you are buying has cast iron block that has been welded or an aluminum block that has been welded but rest assured it is as good as new." Said no one ever.

    Stopped Cleaning your Gun! I did - You Too?

    I wasn't in the military (for those of you that were thank you for your service). I don't clean after every range session. I clean then when I feel they are dirty enough to be cleaned. After a half century I know how to do this. Although I have some guns that have the bluing worn off from many...

    RCBS cracked at top??

    Aluminum is even more difficult to repair than cast iron.

    Lubricant for carbide dies?

    I started out over 5 decades ago with RCBS lube on a pad. This worked but it is nasty stuff. Like lubing with raw honey. Dirt magnet. Stopped reloading rifle and only reloaded straight walled pistol for a few years. One Shot worked great. Got back into bottle necked rifle reloading but One Shot...

    RCBS cracked at top??

    We did a lot of cast iron crack fixing when I worked in the machine trades. There is not perfect way to fix cracks in cast iron. Welding with NiRod or Tig crystalizes the metal and makes it brittle. Brazing heat is not as high and that fix seems to last longer. If I had something made of cast...
