I guess I wasn't clear above. I'm not looking for "how do I reload" answers. Yes, I know about case lube. Yes, I'm cleaning the brass. No, I'm not going to dump pistol powder in the rifle cases. I've cut my teeth on Handgun loading, now I'm looking to move to rifle calibers and 5.56x45mm...

Are three die rifle sets better than a 2 die set? Does a combined seat/crimp die work best with 5.56 or would I be better off with a separate seating and crimping die? What about the expander? If I'm using the Dillon for that is that best handled there with the powder die or not? Looking...

Yes, 9mm and .40 S&W. Both loads work very well. So far I've worked up some range loads and slightly hotter range loads for the 9mm. I'll be working up some JHP loads at some point in the near future while I slowly collect the better materials to mate up with my conserved best brass. I've...

So I have a tricky problem. I have been saving brass for the majority of my shooting hobby which at this point goes back nearly 20 years. I have .303, 7.62x51, .30 carbine and 5.56x45mm that I want to reload. I'm aware of the challenges with the military crimps and the berdan primers in some...

During the Rev War there were over 1600 Privateers in use by the rebels. That'd be small sailing vessels up to just about full men of war or converted merchantmen made into men of war with cannons and carronades. Most certainly a serious piece of hardware and collection of ordnance.

I have always thought of it this way. Back in the early Days of the Republic, private individuals owned cannons, ships and private warships could be built, owned and commissioned. Privateers were just that, privately owned and run ships. You could bombard a small town with one on the coast and...

I post here infrequently, but as some of you know, I have an armored car habit. Up to now, none of my armored cars have had mounted weapons fitted (a dummy or a simulator so far). However, one of the vehicles I've had in process is jointly owned by myself and 2 other friends. It's a heavy...

I'm looking to get a Form 4 started for a suppressor and it looks like the two main CLEO's in my area aren't the signing types. It has been suggested that initiating a revokable living trust would be a valid path. Are there any problems with this aside from initial expenses?

x2 18 round magazines plus 130 round of 30 carbine in the car for the carbine..... Better to have too much than not enough I say.

Its actually quite vanilla now. There's not any company logos or anything added. Though it very well could get that attached. I did have to sanitize some comments about the NFA/ATF in it for legal purposes even though it's just internal.

Dean, I want to do some more work on the PPT. It's got some un-attributed image too so I don't want to distribute it in anything but my own personal use unless I can get some credits included for the image sources. I'll probably get Oleg and Bill to get me some better images over time, but...

Oh, we also handed around our cards and names for contacts to help field questions the next time the come up with a question.

A year or so ago, I vowed I'd do this after the then latest example of reporters reporting what they didn't understand. I finally got a chance and did it. I built a lesson plan/PPT presentation, lots of data. After I ran it past some folks at work, I got a member of the Security Department, our...

So what's the next step after the DC Court of Appeals? The 4th or SCOTUS?

Dude, I aren't you supposed to be in a meeting!!! :scrutiny: :neener: Kevin still hasn't picked it up neither has David Hardy....

This very well could have been an example of a integrity check. ie why did no-one raise a hand and ask what was going on. Round here in atlanta about 10 years ago, APD's internal Affairs went round and "turned in" wallets to officers. Some officers turned the wallets in with everything...

Wasn't ATF Calling the shots at the compound and not the FBI?

Naturally, charges HAD to be filed against someone. :scrutiny:

I was sitting having a BLT at Moes in Virginia Highlands about 10 years ago when I watched an officer appear across the street, rush into a store and drag a homeless woman out to discuss an issue with her. She got combative and I watched stunned unsure of what to do when the officer was clearly...

Granted, but the Hetzer is hardly the only vehicle with a recoil guard for the loader to have to work around. In the tight confines however, I was amazed. Also of note is the Hetzer lacks the armored ammo bins that makes the German Panzers harder to burn even if you penetrate the armor and get...
