    An example of <3 mo from signature to approval in 2008

    And, with the reasoning of "Zombies", no less. Back in '08, we must've just barely been on the event horizon of that marketing gimmick. -S

    Should someone who carries never get drunk?

    If I had to sum it up, I would say drink until your judgement is impaired. If you don't know where this line is, don't drink. On the other hand, you should obey the law, some real smart politicians got together and wrote some simple language that's supposed to apply to every situation...

    How much is too much scope for prairie dogs?

    I agree with rc. I have a Mueller 8.5-25x on my .22-250 and closeup, where you don't need the magnification, you can see the whites of their eyes, but, farther out, the mirage will almost get you seasick. I have a Bushnell 3200 10x (fixed) with mildots and mil adjustments on my .204 and...

    CO Sheriff says the (D)'s in CO are threatening them...

    It also seems to be an incredible irony, that the gun laws created by the politicians are enforced by the sheriff's being "coerced". Maybe it's too big of a logical jump, but, the Democrats/politicians don't want existing or new gun laws to be enforced by anyone? Let's see how that works...

    Hornady One Shot follow up

    The sticking all depends on the caliber/case taper. .204 will stick like a banshee. .22-250 barely needs any elbow grease. I'd done hundreds of .22-250 and never have stuck a case. I stuck my 51st .204 case and have come close several times since, tore the rim off a few .204's, etc. -S

    Barnes Varmint Grenade 36 gr Bullets

    Now if you can only get them to shoot. Seems like that's the only brand of bullet that I can't get to work as far as accuracy. Either I'm limited by mag length or patience. -S

    Suggestion for high 1" rings for a Prostaff 3-9x 50

    I've been happy with the Burris P.E.P.R., 'bout $120 shipped. Look around to find one in stock, and cheaper. Notice they offer it in 1" and 30mm. Quick Detach and non-QD...

    Pravda: "Americans, Never Give Up Your Guns"

    Good opinion/article from Stanislav Mishin. Apparently Pravda is a Russian newspaper. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pravda Original article. Which is also posted at/from this blog. Good article, but, after reading other parts of the blog, I have a hard time putting much faith in the...

    anyone seat & taper crimp 9mm with one die

    Once I learned how to set my die in this thread, I had no trouble doing both seating and crimping in the same step. Maybe you're already familiar, but, adjust your die body (up or down) so it removes the flare/sets the taper crimp, then adjust the top seater stem to adjust bullet seating...

    204 Powder

    I like Ramshot's TAC powder. Meters well, clean, accurate, etc. I don't understand why CFE223 even sells, over TAC, but I haven't tried CFE223. I don't have a copper fouling problem after 500-1000+ rounds? Page 8 of this Ramshot document says 26-28.5 gr. of TAC for a 32 gr. bullet in...

    Bench surface finish question?

    When I rebuilt my bench, I glued/screwed an old piece of white countertop to it. Prior to this, it was cheap plywood, which caught powder, carbon, etc. and sucked. So I got some of those paper thin cutting boards that come 3/$3 or whatever. One other option I considered is those 1' square...

    .204 caliber

    I don't reload in a progressive, got a RCBS rock chucker kit. I've had good luck with TAC powder, but this powder flows better than stick powders, and it's cheap and accurate. Hornady Vmax bullets work well, Sierra's seem slightly better, but bulk packs never seem to be in stock. Fed primers...

    "Instructor Belts" Which width?

    I got the 1.5" and it snugly fits through belt loops on normal jeans. So, the other thing to measure is, your pants' belt loops. I had the same question and I'm glad I went with a 1.5" awhile back. -S
