    +1 OS1880!

    I tried silicone ice cube trays, nope, wire mesh, but just the shallow aluminum trays that come with the ovens (with a silicone baking sheet underneath) works for me.

    I have a pair of aluminum scope alignment rods I got in the 80's or so. Crank them in, and if the points don't meet perfectly your scope will be buggered up.

    Tatume, all too many of us don't realize that these guns will ALL go to their eventual new owner!

    Anyway, Ruger and Dillon are the best companies shooters have to do business with!

    IIRC Hogue makes the rubber BFR grips and I found them far more pleasurable in my BFR .45 Colt with hot loads than my BFR .44 mag with mid range loads.
