    Same thing, since the Clinton primer scare I have stayed well stocked with primers.  Some may call it hoarding, I don't care, I vowed to never be caught short again and it has served me well.

    Some folks confuse preparation, with hoarding.

  2. I was very fortunate to have an eye doc that understood what I was trying to achieve. I started with "Golfers glasses". They have the bifocal/trifocal at the very bottom of the lens (you can read stuff if you need to). The shooting eye glass is focused at the front sight and the non dominant eye lens is for distance. I can wear them all day and am able to function reading, shooting and seeing in the distance. Not as good as natural 20/20, but have found for me, a good compromise.

    Why would you be shooting N105, it's an extremely slow burning powder, that's counter productive for those types of bullet. You want a faster burning powder. 

    I bought it from an estate and there was 20 new 1 pound cans. I don't want to use my stash of 231 to load 10MM.

    Assuming they were willing, I would probably try and find a reasonable cost hotel near the hospital and arrange for them to call me a cab to get me to my room after the procedure. If that didn't work I would advertise locally for a kid with a drivers license who wanted to make an easy buck. Good luck - may be in your shoes soon. 

    Good advice. I have done both.

    P01's are great for carry, I just happen to have one in the classifieds lol.

     

    I'm also a fan of the 365, I had one and my wife claimed it so I have to get another. I like the xmacro grip, it's surprising small still. With the large backstrap it fits my hand much better. 

     

    If you happen to be a NRA instructor you can get some pretty good deals on 365's. I just ordered one for $465, add a $200 407k and I'm set. 

    Mike,

    Is the discount direct from SIG?

    Just for reference, Kore has a better selection of options and is less expensive.

    Kore does have a great selection, but found them to be almost double the cost of the Bianchi/Safariland. Did I miss something?

    You must have better comfort than me.  I bought one and did not care for it, was not that comfortable.  Stuck with my Wildnerness belt.

    I have 2 Wilderness belts and have been wearing them for years (Velcro replaced twice) and they are great. I found this Bianchi/Safariland belt for formal business use.

    Was either Daisy or remington and seems like it was part of a caseless ammo experiment.

     

    It was Remington. I had one of the rifles. They discontinued it..thank God.

    20 years ago a top shooter told me "when you go to practice, shoot a group when you get to the range and right before you leave shoot another group so you know your sights are still on for next time you pull it out of the bag".  

     

    I still do that and it's saved me from cratering the first stage at a match more than once.

     

    It's unusual that you are hitting the limit on the dots before getting back to zero (unless you're adjusting the wrong way.. BTDT), although a 10-yard zero is going to take up quite a bit of that adjustment as you try to get the dot line down to the bore line if there's no slope in your dot mount.  You'll also see a lot of change as you move the target in or out.

     

     

    Pretty good advice.
