Just curious if your bench is Really Solid and Flat. Wobble and not being level flat could cause issues,

My 1050 I do both. My 550 I only sit, don't know why. been doing it since I got many many moons ago.

Digital scales are great and accurate BUT there are things ypu must do because they are finicky. Make sure its on a level flat, sturdy surface. It should be away from all air ducts, drafts etc. Make sure scale set up to zero and back away to let it settle in. When weighing step back and let scale do its thing. I've dealt with digital scales commercially, some friends don't even use them near flourscent lighting. Personally use a Dillon and have no issues, if the above is followed. I know alittle overboard, but I like accurate measurements. Jim

I use it on my boat trailer light connections, no corrosion. I would assume woks the same way on any battery connections. Nothing worse than corroded connections or batteries.

Been using golf gloves with the index finger cut . Get a tight fit because they stretch, the winter golf club works well, just alittle thicker.

My point ---- you just agreed--- personal preference -- what works for each person.

Respectfully right back at you LMS, it's all about personal preference. Different eyes pick up backgrounds and the bird differently. If what you say is true everyone on a trap line, skeet range or a sporting range would be wearing the same color lenses on a given day, and that doesn't happen.

Just remember shooting an auto, it will kick out the empty towards the person next to you. Unacceptable on the trap range. You have to add a device of somekind to catch the shell or deflect it downward.

Frames are a personal choice. I would suggest, try on as many different frames you can get your hands on. I have a couple of friends who tried wrap-arounds and the lenses kept fogging up. Lens color is also a personal choice, what works for someone else may not work for you. My optomologist told me for the best perception use the lightest possible color without squinting, because everyone sees things alittle different. Lastly ---- don't let your shooting glasses, lens color or tint take over if you've had a bad day on the range.

Alesmc Thanks for the info on my 625 trigger job. Seated the federal primers .008 deep, not one problem. I also used winchester's, not one went off. Guess its right where i want it. Great trigger!! Jim

alecmc Thanks for the info. Should I only use Federal primers?? jim

I'm going lighten the trigger on my 625 and I'm told i'll probably have to use Federal primers and seat them alittle deeper. How deep do I go?? Thanks in advance. Jim

For what it's worth-- I Just had a eye Dr. app't with my Optomologist, He is a shotgun guy, trap, sporting clays and some handgun. He just said there are a lot of good glasses out there, his suggestion about lens ---------- For the best perception was to -- " Use the brightest tint without having to squint and actual color is personal preference."

On the other side, I have bought 3 used 1050's over the years. Each one was priced right and the extras I received were well worth the price. I did receive pictures and was fortunate enough to deal with great people. INSPECTION PERIOD WAS ALWAYS IN THE DEAL. I would be patient and go used. Jim

What brand Micrometer bullet seating die do you prefer? Also I've seen some micrometers on Dillon 1050 powder measures. Can you buy these or are they home made? Are they worth it? Thanks in advance Jim

If what you say is true and it may be-- Most of the questions asked fall into that category, guns, ammo, etc. etc. IMO that one the reasone we have forums like this is to get others opinions. The info helps because we can cut to the chase and find out what everyone's using or not because of some issues. Jim

It's BIG and I read the description. Didn't' need pictures. Geez!!! Jim

Thanks for the info. Cuts to the chase, have a Bo-Mar for sure. thanks again Jim

Are there any optic sights that fit into a Bo-Mar rear sight cut slide?? Thanks in advance Jim

nhyankee-- Thanks for the reply, I got some locally, pretty dirty but they will clean up. Jim

1000 cases

Thanks for the replys: Shooters Connection bag will fit my needs. Good Price. Jim

Is there anywhere I can buy military crimped brass?? Jim
