I see the importance of fine tuning the mags to your gun and your personal preference.

Is there a web posted video the illustrates how to tune your own mags ?

If not video maybe a post or pictures to describe.

Has anyone tried the new E.A.R Plugs .

They look interesting but I have hearing loss in my left ear from a muzzle break on a AK

from 15 years ago and I am always nervous about product that is sound activated.

I know the new Digital electronic muff and plugs work well as I have a pair of both.

I have a bunch of SW's now thats what me user name means SWandME

I have 686 x 5 629 x1 500SW x 1 and a model 10 just for fun.

[Need some new grips]

I just went down this road and I had three 686's with Pachmeyer Gripper Decelerator's and 2 with Hogue

I spent Sun at the range and I came to the decision that for Single Action the Pachmeyer's are the best

nice and sticky soft rubber and for double action the Hogue were far better. I have medium size hands so your milage

may very . I ordered up 3 more hogue's as I am doing all Double action now. and they are easy to change back if I need to.

[Powder Check Dies]

There was a question about the best powder check system RCBS vs Horn.

I promised some pics of my conversion.

I have Dillon , Hornady RCBS and Redding preses and I like them all for there purpose.

I tried the RCBS lockout die and the powder cop but they both had issues. so...

I came up with a way to use the dillon powder check system on the hornady preses

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e161/swandme/IMG_0119.jpg

Here are the photos

The unit comes with one nut and the smaller flat washer I added a second locknut

the larger fender washer 1.275 Dia. and a rubber faucet washer and the 2 small felt bumper

pads to keep the rod centered and properly aligned. I have been using this setup

for over 2 years with out any problems.

the nice thing about the dillon setup is you can share the electronic part

with other presses by using a separate powder die on each press.

I have one for the Hornady press and one for my 650. and another big plus is the dillon works from 22 to 45 cal ( comes with 3 sizes of plungers )

any ??? feel free to call

Thanks
