    When does a bullet stop accelerating?

    Spade5, as mentioned repeatedly, you got the answer right up front. The rest are nit picking. The concept did cause me to chuckle at a statement from an uninformed LEO one time. She was telling another person that tumbling bullets are dangerous.....because once they tumble they can change...

    Dillon Backorder Thread

    I had been putting off ordering some things for a couple of months, out of concern of delays and no need for me to add to the problem. I submitted an order a month ago and have already received the dies. The rest is en route.

    Trent, I run one of those fans (the second one you listed) on my Harley as a parade fan. I had a buddy machine a beautiful housing, inletted for the fan. It blows between the cylinders from the side. Very effective.

    Dillon Strong Mount - Bench Height & Standing, Sitting or Bar Stool

    Bench height Triumph, I recently went through the same problem. You can see the process on my "Photo Essay" thread here. I am 6 foot and run similar presses. Mine are a Dillon 650 on the "650 only" strong mount (8.25") and a Co-Ax without a high mount. I was surprised how high I needed to...

    BDS, 700 cfm. as it turned out, definately not overkill. It clears the room quickly but seems to be just right. It's quieter than most household kitchen fans I've experienced. No HVAC vents, my home is hot water heat. With the door closed it somewhat of a closed system.

    Thanks for all the compliments guys. My main motivation for sharing is to contribute back to the forum, in light of the knowledge I have gained myself. Trent, I researched hoods quite a bit. Lowes and Home Depot don't carry hoods that flow this much air. I went online and selected a...

    bds, I modeled it after a laboratory vent hood. Like one of those you might see with scientists in moon suits in a movie about ebola virus. http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=0AbMWLJs3bsWj0Q Remember the room is also used for cleaning firearms, etc. The idea is to keep fumes...

    I recall that set up. A dream for all of us. I remember thinking to myself, that exact feature was the only feature I was left longing for. "Ah well, maybe I'll build a cabin some day."

    removing rust from dies

    Kano Labs, the makers of Kroil, makes a product called Exrust. It is amazing at removing rust like that pictured on in this thread. Works in just a few minutes. Keep it far away from bluing, a form of rust itself. I could not be more pleased with this product! http://www.kanolabs.com/...

    Photobiker. I had the same concern. Very, very sturdy. Of course that's also an effect of the rigid bench, anchored to the walls. I think a real key is the footprint of the mounting plate. For an RCBS Ammomaster sizing 50 BMG, a guy could go wider and or deeper. As is, I would honestly feel...
