Watch the video John. The Vortex rep says there is no trigger block with the sighting system whatsoever. So no, you do not need an acquired target for it to fire per that statement.

Well, despite whatever brand is used I still believe an insert is a much more lasting repair if the bolt is removed and replaced on a regular basis.
Forum: Casting Equipment
I just remove them, use a tooth pick or wooden skewer to put some Gorilla glue in the handle and then put them back on using a rubber hammer to seat them really well. Never had any come loose after...

Better be prepared to write a BIG check. I can't imagine the price of the optic alone.

I do not know how the Star works, but I am not a fan of helicoils. Timeserts are a much better repair especially if that bolt gets adjusted or goes in and out on a regular basis.

Looking through Fulton Armory's website I am a bit dismayed by their adamant opposition to reloading.

That would be great ordering a new one, but what about many of us that already have them.? No flames meant. I have the same mold in that video and without nose sizing it is really hit or miss on...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Difficult video to sit through (for me anyway) Skip to about the 22 mark and you will get the nose sizing portion.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Yes sir. I had a couple of Lee push throughs but when I needed a couple of new sizes I went with the NOE setup. While initial kit is a bit more adding size bushings is dirt cheap and I believe more...

It is to me. Cleaner on my hands when loading mags, no smoke from lube and being capable of faster velocities if desired. I hated the mess of using a lube sizer and handling the boolits afterward. ...

The 6-24 is on my 100yd CZ. No need for a spotting scope.
Forum: Rimfire Area
There really is no such thing as a "rimfire scope" anymore. I have one with a 6-24 Nikon, one with a 3-8 Leupold and recently acquired vintage Weaver 4x for a vintage Remington 550-1. What is the...

I have friends in Philly that felt it and also one in Delaware that noticed things moving about on tables.

Be thankful you got the investment funds back. It is a simple matter to roll it into a new IRA fund but it must be done quickly to avoid any tax penalties.

If you decide to go the route of changeable inserts look at NOE. They have had them for quite a while and in my opinion with a better finish. I have a few of the old Lee push through dies and still...

Just reread the title of this thread. Like a couple of others have mentioned, I have two pots. One for softer pistol boolits and one for rifle and higher velocity pistol stuff. Neither are left...

They are not far from me. I have used them for several items. They are good to go in my book.
