I clean my brass before reloading. I mean - right before reloading, using Nu-Finish in the walnut or corncob mix. You'll want those cases lubed for decapping/resizing... :thumbup:
Also upgraded the handle on my single stage press. Since I've got a welder and materials, built myself a large...
Wait to make a decision until you're sure.
You may yet meet someone to whom the story matters. Time's not up yet and you're not gone..
Heavy factory loads are what got me into reloading. Create your own lighter loads and see how you like the gun then.
Folklore from my youth, heard for many decades now: more 22s are ruined from to much cleaning than from to much shooting...
My Ruger Super Single Six has somewhere north of 20k rounds through it. It's stainless and looks great - but I don't clean it very often. Wipe down yes, push a patch...
Not confident at all, just wasn't seeing a scenario like the one you described. Understand your position a bit better now. Thank you for the explanation.
They might... you think $31k could have bought you international advertising that would get you quoted and discussed on multiple forums like this one? We're feeding the machine with each view/click of this post...
Who's gun is it? If you're just "borrowing" it for a bit and worried over resale, then don't touch it. Sell it now and buy a gun that can be yours. :thumbup:
I've only ever lengthened stock fit with shims and pads... but then, I own my guns.
Pool, darts, golf, etc... they are all the same as shooting/archery/slingshots.
Muscle/eye/breathing/nerve control while taking a small object from "here" and placing it very precisely over "there".
Would enjoy a game of pool very much, let's do it. ;)
To quote MIB: "There's always an alien battle cruiser or a Korilian death ray or intergalactic plague that's about to wipe out life on this miserable planet."
Ignore them completely, turn off the TV/Radio, stop reading news sites and quit listening to "the sky is falling" folks. Your outlook...
Yes it is. Nobody spreads panic/rumors faster than shooters. "Prices are going to go up!" Gee, really? During a time of inflation prices will go up? "There's going to be a shortage!" Yeah, because now we feel that we have to buy everything at any price before it disappears.
And that's...
Well, there are three questions there:
1) Is it really ODC? No, but some folks enjoy drama and being dramatic. Mayo Clinic has better information on the actual disease.
2) What do y'all think? That mental health issues are not all that funny...
3) Other than aesthetics is there any advantage...
For those "super easy" cases, do those happen to be R-P? I can sort those headstamps out (in my .38 Special brass) just running them through the resizing die, don't even have to look...
When looking at the definitions and examples of what psychological abuse might include, it's not necessarily the act itself. What might be a normal day/event for you and me could be challenging to someone else.
*not a doctor...
I enjoy reloading as much as I enjoy shooting. Not having to pick up brass is very high on my benefits of revolver shooting list.
It's a big world, we may have different goals...
I've got three on my shelf: Modern Reloading, Lyman 49th and Speer 13.
Will sometimes look up data online, but generally rely on these manuals to help me form an acceptable load. They do not all agree, that is why I have them...
