Check and app's are in the mail. Sorry for the delay Dan....it's all Cindi's fault! (you are correct in assuming she is not a member of this forum)

Save yourself time, money and frustration.....let a pro do it. Danielle is a great guy! http://plate-tacular.com/

You are such a romantic! You should write for Hallmark!

From what you describe....the Steel Master may be what you are looking for.

You could always go back for round 2! Congrats and thank you!

In the Aviation world we refer to the "Swiss cheese theory" where we look at an accident (or near) and consider the factors that led to the end result, ie all the holes line up. I feel USPSA, staff, shooters, rules, etc do a great job at stopping the alignment of the holes! When you pull that off....you are safe!

thats why it is called the "dark side"

We leave Wednesday.....14.5 hours of sure bliss!

I was in the same boat you are when I purchased my first 1050. I settled with removing the powder check station and added the bullet feeder. I simply watch each case come through and visually check the powder. It is very painless....and I swear it helps with shooting as my eyes get use to darting back and forth. Steve

Before we scare anyone off here..... I promise there will be more light on the indoor range than last year Great! Last year someone pinched my ass and I could not see who it was to get their number. My name is Steve....nice to finally meet you!

How about this.... Speedo "pose off" friday. However low we have to turn down the lights to make the scenery acceptable is the light everyone has to shoot in. yes we will be using self squading. Note to self - bring a very bright flashlite!

Thank you again! The "auto mechanic" comment was a joke! You have an extensive knowledge of the anatomy....it was my attempt at humor.

Erucolindon - you must be an auto mechanic?? Thank you for the advice. Are some bands better than others? Will the Wally World brand work just as well as the pharmacy type? I'm new to all of this and am glad to read I'm not alone. Here I thought it was an age thing!

Do the little arm band things work?

Will there be a "pose off" afterwards?

Great guns and great people....you will be VERY happy! Steve

Would you be so kind as to post pictures of a finished polished plate? I have an idea of what you speak of but need to make sure before I screw something up! Me and Mr Dremmel...... Steve

Great advice as usual Doug. Thank you! Steve

Thanks Jeff! Dillon came through again. Everything will be replaced...free of charge (including shipping) Pretty sweet!

Its been said before numerous times. Once clean, spray a little Dillon Case Lube in your comp and it will keep it cleaner than before. Don't ask me why....but it works.

As most know I blew up the primer system on my 1050 setup for 9mm. It was a mess with quite a bit of damage. I finally had a chance to survey the damage yesterday and made a replacement parts list. I just got off the phone with Dillon and to my surprise.........it's all BEING replaced at no cost to me! The press is a couple years old and in my mind it was MY fault! (I even stated that) I don't know about the rest of you but I dont know many companies that stand behind their product like this. Dillon......I love you guys! DONT FORGET YOUR GLASSES WHEN RELOADING

Well looky here.....CONGRATS CHAMP!

Thanks for all of the tips, I really do appreciate it! Doug - I will be more diligent cleaning the primer bar of residue - THANK YOU! I shot a local match yesterday and was happy so many of my friends came up to say this post made them rethink wearing their safety glasses. We all get lazy/careless ...it only takes one time!

Bravo Zulu indeed! Congrats! You know.....all the cool guys go aviation! Just saying...........(retired ADC)

Thanks Jeff! Just like shooting Open....Watash is double pluggin'!
