    Storing ammo, security cabinet or fire safe ?

    A safe is overkil in any event. If your going to drop the dollars on a thick steel walled safe then using it as ammo storage is underutilizing its intrinsic value. By a cabinet that locks and store your ammo there. There are several good cabinets out there that serve the purpose well...

    I am going to vote on overly cautious. I always tumble my range brass to clean not polish. When I put the case in the shell holder i give a quick glance down the mouth of the case for a spent primer, rock, etc. that may be stuck. Other than that the decapper punches it out and I move on...

    I used to laugh at the fanatical following Dillon has obtained. I scoffed at folks who said they were the best press made. I mean it is a shell plate that mvoes up and down with the pull of a handle right? How difficult can it be? I have owned one RCBS and two of the hornady presses. One...

    Weirdo at Work....

    Since what he is doing to irritate you is at best open to interpretation and easily dismissed as "I am not doing anything different than before. he is just feeling guilty and assuming things now". Better way is sing his praises build him up as the best employee you have and get him...

    Ballistic Gelatin source?

    Ryan.. The part of my discussion which you quoted was for the plumbers putty substitute. I had already dismissed the geletain idea as expensive and requiring alot of effort. The alternate was where I was saying keep the media consistent for comparison sake but the putty would not be...

    Ballistic Gelatin source?

    I actually contacted the company that produces the ballistic geletain. They would not sell the powder in less that 25 gallon bbls. It is a pain to mix as well as keep cool , cure etc etc. If he wants to see differences in expansion of different bullets then as long as the medum is...

    CAS targets

    By the time you rebuild/repair the mild steel targets a few time sit would have paid for you to purchase the armor plate that the professional target manufactuers use. Take a look at MGM targets on the web. You can still save a few dollars buying the precut plate and building the...

    Another Reloading Newbie Question…

    The books (I don't care if you have the exact components listed) are for reference only. DO NOT take them at face value. You start at the lower values for laods and work up a load yourself. A chronograph is INVALUABLE in this endeavour. Considering good ones are now well priced and what...
