I obviously don't know nearly as much as John ... as I have a few questions regarding his recommendation of this particular kit for loading 9mm ...

1. not really a question ... but a $75 balance scale?!
That's why this kit costs more than the Lee kit.

2. I see it comes with a "case lube kit" ... $17.50 at Midway ... ya gonna lube them 9mm cases?
Yup, total waste of money. That's why some kits are better buys than other.

3. I see a "deburr tool" ... $17 at Midway ... gonna deburr your 9mm cases?
Another total waste of money.

4. I see it also comes with a "hand priming tool" ... on-sale for almost $33 at Midway, right now ... I don't have a RockChucker, myself ... but is that, or is that not, a priming "arm" on the front of the press?
NOT a waste of money!! Hand priming tools do not require you to fill @#%#%$#&^^%$*&^%&^!!! primer tubes, and as such are faster. Only drawback to this is it's not as simple as the Lee, which came first, and they had to jury rig the design to get around Lee's patent!
5. also comes with a "powder funnel" ... almost $6 at Midway ... also rated only 2 stars for some reason ... looks no bigger than the Uniflow ... or without the case-activated linkage, is there otherwise no "drop tube" suitably sized for 9mm?

6. is that a "hex wrench set" I see there, too? ... $11 at Midway ... nothin' from nothin', but every Hornady die set I ever bought (and I bought a lot of 'em) came with a hex-wrench for the lock-ring ... what exactly are all the other wrenches in the set for?

I will say, that Uniflow is nice! ... started with one, myself (despite my own ignorance, 'course) ... albeit, I also started with the case-activated linkage kit, and a Lee turret ... man, was that slick! Probly won't do ya no good on a single-stage though, eh?

Oh ya ... if ya actually got the Speer #13, watch out if ya ever load .40sw ... they got a bad load, in there, IIRC.

Anyhow, I know lots of guys've got RockChuckers, and like 'em plenty good ... never heard no one say a bad thing 'bout 'em ... so, I'm sure ya'll be happy.

This is why some kits are NOT a bargain.

I like to think it didn't actually drive me "insane", but after the 3rd primer "went off" (priming the empty case, thank God!), I had the "shakes" for 'bout a week.

I think I got my MEC 600 Jr. 20ga about 30 seconds after you got yours ... anyhow, you're about dead-on, with your assessment. Closest thing to the MEC 600 would probly be a Lee Turret ... Lyman, if ya like a bit more "stable" platform, for not a lot more money (Lyman don't auto-index, like the Lee ... but lots of guys disable it on the Lee, anyhow ... it can be a real pain, if ya can't git a "rhythm" goin').

Ya can start with a RCBS Uniflow (better yet, get the "Quick Change" model), or the comparable Hornady measure ... without the case-activated linkage ... and then buy the linkage-kit, down the road, if ya need to.

So what was the idiot's first reaction when you told him NOT to shoot the chrono, but to shoot ABOVE it?? (Guess: Flapping eyebrows up and down, as if to say, GEEZ!! do you think I'm an idiot or a bad shot??"

And THEN what was the idiot's reaction after he actually shot the chrono?? I got no guess on this one.

For $75 you'll get the searing surfaces stoned and perhaps the springs trimmed and a light general polish, not a vast amount of work, but $75 is a fair price.

For a full PPC grade trigger job on a S&W (9lb double 2lb single), which would include a full polish, bosses trued trigger and hammer shimmed and centered, reduced power spring kit, yoke trued and stretched and barrel alignment checked, I ask $200: Other smiths may charge up to $350 or $400.

Had a bit of an incident out at Hutchinson at the Gopher Campfire. I have a new policy for my chronograph: You can use my chrono as long as I am the only one shooting through it!

The first pic is the entrance wound, the second is slight expansion, the third is the .45 caliber projectile still lodged in the chrono. Needless to say, the photo eyes were obliterated.

Oh, but there's more...

Same shooter, another not-one-of-the-shooter's chronographs. This time he just wasted the screens.

I was hoping he would just put my 25 year old tripod out of its misery while he was at it.

Apparently you all must not be meat snobs. If you shoot a deer with anything less than a 7RM you will be tracking it for miles (if it dies at all) and the meat will taste bad. Everyone knows that.

I have used them for maybe 30 years as temp heat in a couple thousand houses. nothing better in that role. I have never had a problem when common sense was used. Never had a serious problem at all. If you wish to define a smaller area inside the shed, those blue cheap tarps will contain an amazing amount of heat, when the Father in Law had the ranch in lonsdale, we would use the blue tarps to "build" a room around a tractor or what ever, and the temp inside the space would be 40 degrees warmer than out side, or more.

You haven't lived in MN long enough then.

Rust is a problem when the night temps are cool enough to keep the steel cold while the morning air temp moves above the dew point. That's when you get condensation and the corrosion ensues.

Two simple solutions: Heat the metal above the dew point all the time, or run a dehumidifier all the time (which will induce some heat into the space as well).

Something as simple as a box with a light bulb in it is enough to keep the metal warm out there.

You can also liberally oil the dies when you stop using them, and then have to clean them before using them again - but that seems like a bad idea given the outcome if you forgot and got some oil in the case.

I hope this is a REALLY, REALLY GOOD friend, because in general reloading ammo for other people as a favor is putting yourself at risk if anything bad happens. The same goes for your friend, trusting that you are fully knowledgable and an EXPERT handloader, because most of us wouldn't shoot anybody else's handloads no matter what. The fact that you're in here asking for data is not a good sign, because if you're doing this and then giving the ammo to somebody else, you really should have the new Hornady manual itself. (Plus the Speer, Nosler, and Lyman manuals, at a bare minumum if you're contemplating reloading stuff for other people.) Even if your friend would never sue you, what happens if he gives some of your reloaded ammo to a friend of his who doesn't know about needing to use flat point bullets in a Winchester 94, and the friend's friend gun blows up?? Once you give your handloads to somebody else, you lose control over how they will be used, and no matter how stupid somebody may be who gets ahold of those loads, your butt is on the line 100% for any injuries.

And yes, we had a case where somebody here loaded up some hot 9mm ammo and gave some to a friend, and luckily the guy who loaded the ammo had a case blow out with attendant damage to the gun and his hand. Needless to say, he was in a complete panic to get ahold of his friend to get his handloaded ammo back. Stuff like this DOES happen!!

I had one not long ago, a 92F that dated to 88. I installed the lighter 'D' hammer spring, which dropped the trigger pull to about half the weight. I really warmed up to it once I learned to shoot it accurately in DA mode. It was a really sweet pistol, but unfortunately one that I had to let go during some rough times.

My reloading stuff had been stored for 7 years in my parents basement in GA and I just shipped it up here last summer. So it has only spent 1 winter so far in the garage, the carbide dies were mounted on the turret the whole time at my parents house and I have used them without any problems and they do show some minor corrosion but the insides are smooth and I have not noticed any case scratching on the polished brass. The primers and powder I shipped here were well over 10 years old and had been stored in the basement also, they all worked fine, in fact I just finished off the jug of Unique that had to have been bought some time in the early 90's.

I doubt the humidity level is high enough in the garage to do any damage. IMHO!

i have this posted elsewhere so the first email with "ill take it" gets first dibs.

i am actually posting it here at a LOWER price than the other site.

I am selling this flag from my due to the purchase of a new truck. this was flown on buildings / ships / vehicles under Nazi use. it is an authentic WW2 German / Nazi flag, known as the "State Service Flag"

approximately 52" long, and 31" tall. its in very good shape for being around 70 years old. very few holes from moths or age. I will try to add pictures of the Eagle, an larger picture, and a picture showing the reinforced / thick edges. this is an incomplete flag which never received the rope on the side, never got completed at the factory one can assume. complete examples sell for 500-550.

price is $325 CASH ONLY, in person, i will NOT ship this item. i am located just south of St Paul about 10 minutes.

send a message with your contact info.

thanks !

+1 for the WOT. That and shoot as often as you can. Gun handling skills are a repetitive motion muscle memory skill. The more you shoot, the stronger your hands will become, and the less you will notice trigger pull affecting your accuracy. Don't expect to be a great shooter if you only shoot 50rds a year. Shoot 50-100 a week thru any gun and you will be beter off.

Yes, it's what you have all been waiting all summer for, another open carry breakfast at the infamous EFFEN Gopher Bar at 7th and Wacouta strees in St. Paul. The date is september 25th, and the breakfast starts at 9. Usual rules apply, $10 per head into the tip jar, kids under 5 eat free, OJ, coffee, and tea are included, but you gotta buy your own booze, pop, and coney's. If you just eat coney's, you don't have to pay for the buffet.

And, as usual, the buffet will be the usual artery clogging comfort food, and looks like this:

Keep it on the floor Fire Marshal Bill. Heat rises, why heat the air space over your head first, when you can heat objects and use them as radiators too?

Do you have any trouble with rust?

I'd like to get a bench set up but I have zero space for one inside the house. I've thought about trying to do it in the garage but it's awfully moist in there when the cars come in loaded with snow or even after driving in the rain and I worried that anything metal will have a nice coating of rust pretty quickly.

Another question, where do you store your powder and primers?

A good source for rifle bullets in spitzer form for 30-30's can often be found in the reloading manuals that carry
"Contender" Data. They often have some very good loads using the 130 Gameking spitzer from sierra as well as some of the 150 spitzers.

I have loaded these for a nephew to use when shooting a 99 savage in 30-30...they work very well on deer within 200 yards

From Speer 13:

Some bolt-action and single-shot rifles have been chambered for this cartridge. Reloaders can use spitzer-type bullets in these rifles, but should keep the weight to 150 grains or less. Heavier spitzer bullets cannot be driven fast enough in the 30-30 to expand reliably.

some folks can't bring themselves to admit that deer hunting is just an excuse for them to go out and buy the slickest, most powerful face melter they can afford. "Adequate" has nothing to do with firearm choice for some. The next rabbit I pop will be done in with either a .44 magnum or a 5.56... nuff said. Then again all I use for deer is a .44 mag rifle, or a 12 ga. I've been scoffed at several times for my wimpy deer guns

But then I wonder who the real idiot is, when the scoffer whips out something that could drop a polar bear at 2500 yards... and then generally that's the same guy who makes 12'' groups at 100 yards... Ok enough of my musing.

Anyway if the above isn't true, I can't figure out why some people insist on liquefying their venison. Must be a heck of a thing to field dress, not to mention you have to wonder how much bad stuff gets into good stuff when 3000+ fps implodes a deer.

According to some books on sniping (and none of us would argue anything about Mr. Hathcock right?), .308 removes heads and body parts at anywhere under 1000 yards, and kills beyond 2000. So why would anyone need anything more for a 600 yard shot?

This all seems like a silly question by a knowledgeable guy. Unless the spirit of the issue is "why? Because I/he can." In that case, who effen cares. Buy the biggest, meanest caliber you/he can find that recoils about like a 30-06. I'd suggest...

30-06. :stirthepot:

If money is tight and all you care about is cheap functionality - just get some 6 mil plastic (vapor barrier stuff) and staple it up and tape the seams. I used a sheet of it for a door between my heated shop and unheated garage for 2 years with nothing but chunks of steel drop holding the bottom edge down and staples around the top and one side. It works remarkably well.

Preventing air movement is the goal. Insulation is just for keeping the heat inside the box and keeping the cold outside the box over time. If you're only adding heat while you're there, the efficiency of retaining that heat isn't as much a concern.

Tried the library but they appear to be real liberal and don't carry that sort of book. I did get "Delta Force". Great book. The hand gun books they have are way out of date. I did not think a government lib would actually have a PTC book, but it was worth a try for free. Now reading Navy Seals- The Vietnam Years. Good book, not as good as delta force, but good.

Sure.

You offered to loan one. Was that a joke? Then being new I can't send a PM. Is that status for ridicule? I am sure people here are used to using this site for years. You find it fun to make fun of the new guy? I am sorry I asked and will try to delete it.

Ain't no chance of having the money to completely shetrock/tin/plywood/insulate the inside this year was more interested if anyone had experience with someone other than Lowe's/Menard/Depot (I prefer to support local buisness) or hoping someone had nowhere to put materials and willing to part before winter. For a heater I just need something for the half a dozen days during the winter I need to work on something or drink a couple beer's and be able to smoke a stogey. I don't need it to be, I ain't afraid to drink a beer in the 50's when its -30 out.

I guess I should add that many people from the anti-gun liberal morons might troll here. If people are trying to get support for PTC, should it not be civil? all I asked for was to borrow a stinking book. So the response I got will further our purpose? Being knew, I doubt the NRA would post some of the comments made here. It would not further their cause. I will sit in the background and not participate and just let the long term members have their say. I will still learn things. It is not a vindictive decision.

Look close at having the inside of the pole barn sprayed with ISO expanding foam. I had a customer do this on a large 60 by 120 shed and it was amazing. in summer, at least 30 degrees cooler than outside, and in winter with minimal heat, it was very comfy. It kills the noise, reduces hail damage by significantly stiffening the steel, and its not mouse friendly. Turns the whole shed into a very nice insulated cooler. it was not cheap, but he figures two heating seasons will pay for itself. He was going thru 2 large propane tank fill ups a winter, last winter, less then one by a large margin.

The beauty of the menards steel panels is that they cut them pretty close to dimension, so you can get close to where you want the seams to be without any work.

From reading it, he had crappy lawyering. A predjudicial statement to the jury from the Judge would give any half assed atty reason to seek a mistrial.

Second, if he fulfilled the letter of the law, and the spirit of the law, there is no intent, therefore no criminal action.
