Everybody has to die of something A good friend of mine, a mortician, likes to point out that ultimately it is the lack of oxygen to the brain that kills people.:what: Another wise man also pointed out that "everybody must die from something". I have cast boolits for many, many years...

I don't know the ammo you were using, but I do know the CZ75BD quite well. Most modern CZ's have quite tight tolerances in the chambers and have a very short leade. The remanufactured ammo is most likely out of spec for your pistol. An example of the differences is this: ammo that will feed...

The hotter load is most likely masking a friction problem. Your pistol may be wearing out quicker than you want. On 2 different occasions this past year I cured cycling problems by applying some Hoppes slide grease in new pistols. Pistol no1 is a new Stoeger Cougar 9mm. It had been...

HP-38 or Universal. Does it echo in here? Bliksem

Buy cake or bake cake Me, I don't care if I save money or not when reloading. I have asked the headline question to many a lady that likes to bake cake. They do it mainly for the satisfaction of baking a great cake that they themselves created. One of my hobbies is to reload and shoot - in...

I resemble this remark. I collected so much 40S&W brass that I bought 2 pistols, loading press, molds and sizer dies to match. During the past year, due to the rush to get CCW certified, our range was so busy that I had a field day in cleaning the range of brass. I have 50 cal ammo cans full...

Don't forget to look at a Star. I know they cost more, but time may be important to you. Bliksem

Azar, I would not be concerned about the shorter COAL. Using the chamber, as you have done, to test the COAL is the only real way to measure. Some pistols have tighter leads and boolits need to be seated slightly deeper. My CZ 75's all are like you describe. Cartridges that chamber in my...

Swear by or swear at... I am a carrying RAMI 40S&W owner. Yes, mine did FTF when I got it. Did some polishing and spring changes. Now it is my everyday companion. Bliksem

Saxet in Pharr I went to the Saxet gun show in Pharr, TX yesterday. Lots of primers, powder and other bits available. Prices are still higher than last year but at least stocks are once again available. Bliksem

The best CZ? Depends on which one I have in my hand at the time.:D I got my first CZ 75 in the early 80's. Since then my collection has grown to include almost all of the models ever made by CZ. Today my favorite carry is my RAMI in 40S&W. My winter carry is a CZ75BD Police. In my opinion...

Floydster, Very, very nice. You could call it "The wheel of boom." Bliksem

Bake cake or buy cake? I am often asked if I save money reloading. Frankly, I don't care. I enjoy casting and reloading. If cost is your only concern then you will probably not like reloading as it often is not cost effective compared to surplus or factory ammo. We reloaders are a strange...

My name is Bliksem and I cast, lube & reload.... Me too!:) Whenever I have a carpy day at the office I come home and either cast, lube or reload to relieve the stresses of the day. I feel better already!:) Bliksem

Texas speed bumps Did you know that armadillos are mobile Texas speed bumps?:evil:

I have both the 8000 and 8040. (These are the 9mmP and 40S&W.) Initially the triggers were so-so. After about 5000 rounds through each they have improved a lot. Accuracy and handling of the Cougars are very similar to my CZ's. At the current going prices of $400-$420 these are sleepers, just...

Lee Roder Please share: Where did you get the plastic media from? What mesh size is is?

You know this why?:scrutiny: Let me guess... Is it the same reason there is a sign above the emergency exit on commercial airliners that read: "Don't open during flight"?:what:
