    Prescription shooting glasses

    Hi, not sure if this goes here or not.. glasses are optics of a sort. I have an astigmatism.. diagnosed a couple years ago.. and it's to point where I cannot read my computer screen without my glasses now. This also means I have no good view of my reticle (cannot be focused out.. ), red dots...

    I've very partial to smk 168gr OTP projectiles. I've NEVER had them not shoot well. That said, I'm having issues finding them locally, but I can find amax, eld match, and tipped match kings... Anyone got preferences or experience between them? All paper punching

    For those that separate and weigh their brass.. whats your tolerance?

    Just curious.. I got a bit of virgin lapua brass in and separated it by weight. 84% of it was within .5 gr weight. a full 50% of it was .1 gr variance (either 173.7 or 173.8 gr).. If you're actually keeping the brass together with the intent on eliminating all possible variances (also...

    Yeah, I know, awkward way of saying it, but thats what owners are saying it is... I'm probably going to be looking to fill in the forearm a bit so I can inlet and add an anschutz rail to the stock. Its definitely polymer.. as to what type.. thats more up for guess. Rifle is a bergara b14...

    Winthrop Holsters Review

    Well folks, just thought I'd write up a review. I got an IWB holster for my bhp. Understand that this isnt a small pistol. Its 4.7" barrel, steel, double stack, 2.2lb loaded. Not a ton of folks carrying larger, and if you have carried this large of a pistol you understand the difficulty of...

    New stand for my press

    Sometime you just need to have your working deck at eye height
  10. S

    Well, the press stand is started..

    Had some abused countertop laying around. Made a Pres stand. Ain't nothing fancy. I still need to get some angle iron and punch out holes for dies, Allen wrenches, etc. It's my odd-jobs press (Lee classic cast, hornady lnl bushings). Y'all think it might hold up is it too light weight?

    need some ideas for a press riser

    OK, here is the situation. I just got a new workbench at the house, and the wife is letting me move my press indoors from outside in the shed. I use a dillon strong mount for my 550, and I'm happy with that. Now I need a way to raise my lee classic cast up about 9" or so. I'm looking to...

    odd issue with my press/loading today

    OK.. I'm running some pre-tumbled but not decapped brass through the dillon today. I'm using a Dillon RL550 and RCBS 9mm dies, varied headstamps. On a few.. and i mean a few, like 5% (too high), it feels like I complete the stroke, but no decapping happens. I am paying attention to the clink...

    lee enfield

    educate me. Got offered a nicely sporterized one on a gun I have listed elsewhere. Looks like a nice stock, good strong blueing except for a spot of wear on the barrel. Still in 303. Front sight hood is missing. I think that with a stock, bayo, and front sight hood it should be back to...

    Its a discontinued on press priming station similar to the ram prime but with an auto primer feed as well. LOOKS like I can get all the parts to build one from lee as "spare parts". Anyone ever use one? Good, Bad, Ugly?

    Springfield Arms 1903 questions

    OK, picked up a high sn# 1903 made in 1917. I'm looking at this, trying to understand the geometries of the bolt and stuff. Looks like the lugs themselves are squared off, so no camming forces applied there, but the safety lug (the third one towards the middle of the bolt) appears to be...
