The guy next to me at the range last weekend flipped the safety on his 700 to fire and it fired. I don't know if he messed with the trigger beforehand or not but it happened.

Midway USA has media for sale @ $15 for 1.75 lbs. Is that a decent price? How many pounds do you need for 100 pieces of brass? Thanks.

I got the idea off the forum, but I use a heat lamp over my lubrisizer. Works like a champ.

If we're voting, I second the Lee Classic Cast single stage or 4 hole turret. (I suggest one of each:mrgreen: ) I own them both and I can't imagine breaking a thing on either one.

I saw the fattest .30 group buy going on and thought maybe that was too fat. From what I'm hearing probably not. I'll know when I leave the gun show if I'm going to get into it.

To be honest I don't know really that much about them. I looked at brass availability, bullet mold availability, and price. I've got the itch to buy another gun and I know that they are at the gun...

There's a gun show next weekend. I was thinking about picking up a Mosin Nagant. I have some questions first. Will Lyman .30 caliber gas checks fit Lee's C312-185-1R bullet mold? Will these...

I use 6.5gr HS6. It is like shooting a .38 special. I've just started messing around with H110. I used 13gr and got a 10 shot two inch group at 50 yards.

Do you have a special barrel for your glock? If not does it lead bad? I have been putting off shooting lead because of all the talk around it.
