  1. I heard a place called A-Zone in colorado had them a couple of years ago but I cant find any info on them. Can any body help?
  2. I finally got classified. 54% The guys at the last match said I was sandbagging. But I really just choke on classifiers.
  3. You guys are no fun! You make your kids where seatbelts and stuff like that too dont you. Just kidding. The information that I have in dealing with lead and shooting is that it mainly comes from the primers and not the bullets as one would think. If anyone has better info let me know. I mainly let my girl handle clean brass after it has been washed and tumbled. If anybody knows how to do some test let me know. I know there are test for paint and stuff like that but dont know how they will work for what we want to know. Also has anyone hear tested high for lead levels that could have only come from shooting and reloading?
  4. Well I guess that ened such a cheerfull thread.
  5. Your question could really take hours to answer so what I would suggest is to buy Brian's book, buy Matt Burkett's video's and look around this forum. Go to tips for improvements and you will find alot of helpfull information. Oh yea either start reloading or buy lots of bullets. Because no matter how much you read and how many videos you watch it cannot take the place of putting lead down range. I know this is not the magical answer but it will help.
  6. Oh well maybe next year. Cant get off work.
  7. Eric and Erik, Thanks for the info I'll let you know something soon still trying to get off from work.
  8. Oh I just got a slot to FGN Ive got five days to find out if I can get off work get a flight and find a place to stay. Anybody need a room mate.
  9. I just think that it is so cool that my two year old daughter would rather help me doing my reloading chors than play with the house full of toys. She helps me fish all the brass out of the tumbler then helps me sort and box all of them up. She then hands me the bullets while Im reloading and to finish it up after cleaning the loaded she wipes them all down and puts them in the boxes. Boy I hope this continues through High School. I love Daddy's little helper.
  10. That looks cool but could you imagine how long it would take to set back up between each shooter.
  11. When I took a class from Larry Brown the other day we talked about equipment. I'm still shooting a SS 45. He let me shoot his widebody Bull. Its bad when you can shoot that good with a gun you have never even touched before. Damn, I hate um so much I'm going to have to buy one soon.
  12. Good to see your out of that slump, Hardball. Thought we might lose you.
  13. Has anybody heard how long the waiting list is.
  14. Where is the nearest airport? I may get to come if I can get tickets for the right price.
  15. If you have to buy your own ammo for the academy some times you can get it on a state contract, for bulk orders only. But other than that its off the shelf like Chriss said.
  16. I'm not Kyle but yes your correct. Bird shot only. Last I heard he still had a few opening. If you want to shoot call or email him ASAP.
  17. It was stage 6 Lefty's Revenge my time was 27.12 my points were 79. I come up with 2.9129 the results show 3.0973. I thought you divided time into points.
  18. Nik or anyone else that cares to look at the results. Are the hit factors off or is it me. I figured my classifier at 2.9129 and they had it at 3something. Am I missing something?
