    Equipment List check for clueless Reloader

    Good stuff!! I realized I needed the case trimming gadgets but forgot to include them-Thanks. I figured the case tray may come in handy if I use the press in the non-progressive/index mode which is appealing to me.

    Equipment List check for clueless Reloader

    Thanks for the replies and I appreciate the feedback...keep it coming!!. I do have a caliper and I ordered a tumbler and a scale already. I opted for the funnel because it's cheap and figured it may prove to be handy. The Double Disk and the charge bar...I dunno. I read a review that listed both...

    Weatherby Vanguard Trigger

    I have an older Vanguard in 243 woodstock. Very accurate, extremely smooth action (like oiled glass is the best I can describe it) and a very good trigger. Trigger breaks at approx 4 lbs like a glass rod, very little creep and can easily shoot the advertised 1.5 MOA with what ever I feed it...

As far as what range it is good for is really dependent on barrel length more than anything. assuming you are putting a scope on it, a longer barrel will do better at the longer ranges than a short barrel (all else equal). If using open...

    Using software to catalog a gun collection

    I use Excel (without pics but I'll try the suggestion) Access is surely a better way to do it but is not as common of a program found on most PCs as Word/Excel is.

    Do you tell your spouse?

    In my Gun room, guns appear and dis-appear (mostly appear) :uhoh: . In her barn horses appear and seldom dis-appear. Guns are still way cheaper than taking care of horses so we seldom give each other a hard time about our interests.

    well it's official from the CA DOJ

    That sure was a scary picture you showed there. My dog happened to glance at my laptop screen and he yiped when he saw it, ran in the corner and peed while he trembled. :) Seriously, if I lived in such a communist state I would move.

    7mm Rem. Mag. Bullet advice

    I second the plain $12-$14 a box Rem Core-Lokts. I have heard it from others many times and have seen it first hand myself many times. Fancier/more expensive bullets are often the hot ticket for bigger game but frequently tend to have to much penetration for Deer. I have had great sucess with...
