Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. If they were stealing from you to supply a drug habit, inflict physical harm, or cause serious emotional/mental pain. Then I could understand not wanting to be even a small part of their lives. My brother and I have put our sister through drug and alcohol rehab 4 times in the past 6 years. But if she called tomorrow saying she was ready to try and get it together again, she knows Id be on the next flight out to help. We absolutely will have nothing to do with her, while she is drinking or high. Neither of us have heard from her for the past 6 months, nor even have a clue as to where she is. Not saying you have to do every and anything they ask, but apparently its up to you to be the bigger person. Call your mom once a week. Call your brother once a week. It will most likely improve your relationships with them. If it does not work out, well heck you gave it a try. Good luck to you.
  2. Right now Ill be stuck with factory ammo (and the 2k or so reloads I have on hand) I'm 6-8 months out on my new house. Till then everything is in storage. Dang thats a bummer. Ive had several eaa/cz guns over the years all in 9mm and loved them. Thanks for that info! Ill have to order one up when I get around to the eaa. The perfect 10 is 6" with the full under lug. So basically a 6" Edge. Thanks for the round counts on the mags. You can do some amazing velocities with the 10mm. Thanks for the suggestions guys. Going to see if the STI dealer in town has it in stock tomorrow.

    JJ and Mojo!

    Your dog has muffs, that is way cool!
  4. Fun gun. Mainly blasting jack rabbits. Ive been using several 1911's, and my Glock 20. Kinda want the best of both worlds, nice trigger and large magazine capacity. Plus I love the the 10mm.
  5. Oh I didn't know they were back to making a tanfoglio design 10mm. That's an easy must have in my book. My loading stuff is in storage, so I will be limited to factory ammo and what I have on hand for the next 6-8 months. Ive been out of the country for several years, was not aware of the long OAL 40 loads people were using now days. Thanks for bringing that up. Might send me in another direction once I can get back to loading. Thanks for that.
  6. I am a total zombie movie/book lover. The internal strife among the survivors just killed the whole show for me. Along with its SUPER DUPER SLOW pacing. I mean who makes a zombie show and only kills like 30 zombies in 6 episodes.
  7. I'm in the market for a wide body 10mm. Not specifically locked into getting a 1911, but that would be my first choice. Mainly looking for something "factory" so that I wont have to wait 6 months for a gunsmith to build me something off a frame. So far Ive only come up with the Perfect 10 from STI If I go this route will the 40 S&W mags work and feed 10mm? Or is the OAL too long? If not, do they make 170mm mags for 10mm? Anyone own or shot one? Good or bad things to say? Any other wide body 10mm out there other then Glock?
  8. I was totally off base what I typed before. For some reason I was thinking that from the factory it had only 2 screws and then the rear sight screw. But in reality when I got the gun out of the safe... There are 3 screws and the rear is a dovetail (Im getting old....) what I did was flip the sight base around backwards, because I did not like the way it overhung the barrel. So I was only using 2 screws. And to combat that I drilled a hole in the ruger logo because that is where the third hole will line up if you flip the base around. I think it makes for a much cleaner look. Sorry if I caused any confusion!!
  9. I did the same dang thing. When bought my 550 in 89 or 90 they tossed in some pieces parts and "Big Bertha" primer tray was one of them. I thought man my RCBS works just fine but free is free! Got it home one primer tube latter and I thought gee that Mike guy sure knows what hes doing. Now have the auto fill dohicky and couldn't imagine filling them by hand again
  10. There is and IDPA shoot at Desert Sportsman http://www.dsrpc.net/calendar.html
  11. Never having put one on a chronograph myself... but 14,000 grains X 1,700 fps /1,000 = 23,800 power factor Ummm think thats major enough for an entire match in one shot....
  12. Wow that sucks. Hope it comes through soon for you man.
  13. I'm in the process of looking for a new place to live. So Ive been spending a lot of time in Google Maps looking at property, surfing the web to find nearby ranges to see what type of events they hold, then going and finding them in Google Maps. Aint living in the future cool!!!! So go find your local club and post its GPS cords and name here. It would be neat to see where the rest of you guys shoot. To find the gps cords, just find your range in Google Maps. Right click on the location, in the box that pops up click on Whats Here? That will put the GPS cords in google maps search box right above the map. Then just cut and paste here. One of the ranges I was looking at today. Albany Rifle and Pistol Club in western OR. 44.460404,-123.058126
  14. Make sure you buy a spare parts kit $40, yes Dillon will send you anything for free no questions asked. But that wont help you at 2:30am on Saturday. Primer pickup tubes. When I first started loading one or two was fine. But once you get in the rhythm you will want enough to finish the entire 500 or 1000 round batch. Or spend $350 and get that auto filler thing probably the best money I ever spent on reloading equipment (I hate picking up the dang primers with the tube)
