    Bedside gun: why I don't keep a round in the chamber

Never had that experience before but I did have a dream once where a 'phantom' intruder was in the room, after a brief struggle in which I was hoplessly tangled up in the bedding I broke lose grabbed my revolver and unloaded it. I woke up, WIDE awake in a cold sweat my ears...

    How fast are you??

    Advantage of a Turret Press over a Single Stage Press?

    When RCBS 1st came out with their turret press a few years back I tried one and didn't care for it. I didnt like the priming system or the slop in the turret. I would still like to try a Lyman before I decide I dont want one period. However I started using a Bonanza co-ax several years ago...

    which do you shoot better, .22lr revolvers or autos?

    The only 22LR handgun I own is a Ruger 22/45. out of the box it was accurate with very tiny groups at ten yards and respectable groups at 25. I shoot my friends SW revolver once in awhile and I just cant get the accuracy that he does. Wonder if that could be caused from lack of pratice with...

    Does reloading and marriage/relationships work?

    No problems here or I'd be single. My wife knew what she was getting into when she signed on and thinks this stuff is pretty cool. I spend 80 to 100% of my 'winter' time in the shop depending on what I'm working on. We have a very small house and my shop is attached, so I'm right there. We...
