I'm going to have to snag a Remington R1 1911 before they get too rare.

I agree, but the wording gives me pause. Yes, Remington responded to the market, yet this reads like the new owners think that was a mistake. They might be right, Remington did fail, twice... ;)

From the release: Hmm... *bold is mine.

Nothing I posted had anything to do with supposed guitar shortages or why the 2020 sales are higher. As should be self-evident, I posted the article to show that guitars indeed were selling like crazy. You went where you went all on your own. LOL, other way around. I'm defending? My...

Not "panic buying" but they are most definitely buying: Fender has sold more guitars in 2020 than any other year in its history The used guitar, amp, and effects/accessories market is booming too. But you know, what an idiot right?

My favorite is the one called "On Sale." Still gotta be 7075 though.

I ended up getting an RCBS swager die instead of the Lee APP, Swage It thingy, or the Dillon Super Swage. It was purely a budget decision: I already have an RCBS Rock Chucker so adding the RCBS swager die was only another $35. I set it up last night and it works fine, a little slow, but...

Looking at the CMMG Banshee right now. I'm a little behind!

LOL, yeah...

I've had a CX4 .45 since they first came out. I got it with the idea that it would be a non-threatening gun for my wife to get familiar with - She's never once even shot it. ;) Meanwhile I also got a PX4 .45 and a few extra mags, and the combo goes with me to the range every trip. It is a...

This is exactly what I do. However TBH, it really doesn't make a difference since I built my 300AAC so different from my 5.56 that I'd never mix them up. Where I'm really glad I adopted 300AAC early is that over the past few years during ammo shortages when 5.56 components are gone I load for...

Yep and this test is nothing like normal wear, this has been exposed to all weather 24/7/365 for 5 years. I haven't measured the temp on that West facing sill in July, but I promise it's hot! For normal use, going in-and-out of doors, occasional exposure to wet and freezing on a hunt, I think...

Update to a long-term experiment on Polymer deterioration started back in 2015 in this thread: https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/protecting-polymer-ar-magazines-from-sun.783489/#post-9954725 Updated further in the same thread and then in 2017 Here...

30-30. I love my old trusty Winchester but I haven't shot it in years. 6.5 Grendel because I can't seem to find any IMR 8208 XBR anywhere. I suppose I could switch over to IMR 4198, but I'm just not familiar with it.

You don't have to justify anything @Mr. Zorg. I think people are forgetting that we are in the midst of a PANic (to differentiate from a normal Banic LOL) and there is neither the selection, or availability that we normally enjoy. I can't find primers locally to save my life.

These past couple threads have gotten me thinking about how I started and what I'd do different if given the chance. The first thing that pops in my mind is that instead of getting the RCBS Rock Chucker Premium Kit (I love and still use the Rock Chucker for low volume high-quality rifle rounds...

Since you are a Utahn (like me) you might want to stay local. Berry's Bullets Barnes Bullets Unfortunately my favorite independent reloading supply store and Dillon Dealer just closed (after 35 years :() but there are still some other indie's in town like Doug's, Gallenson's, Gunnie's (Orem)...

LOL right you are! I probably have another 200-ish in my stash of unsorted brass. Since it is all range brass I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth.

I think it is a great suggestion! I'll be getting one added to my setup as soon as I can. I just reamed-out 200 crimped .223 with a hand reamer, and while it wasn't a huge deal, I'd prefer not to do it again...

The only problems I've found with .45 is when the case has a "V" bend in the mouth. Those tend to split when reformed or split after firing.
