Go back to the Mr. Bullet Feeder powder funnel. Start by adjusting the powder funnel, just going deep enough that you get a full stroke of the powder measure, then keep adjusting it down in very small increments until the bullets drop out of the bullet feeder into the flared case far enough that it takes a bit of effort to pull them back out of the case. Then adjust the powder funnel down just a tiny bit more to prevent shaving the coating. With just two or three bullets in the bullet feeder, a bullet should drop into the flared case deep enough to require a little effort to pull out of the case. With a revolver you need to prevent bullet pull out (bullet moving forward) not set-back, the crimp will help with that, but the best method is still good case neck tension and a good crimp. Nolan

Ohh, that's just cold man, cold! Nolan

I started out as the guy that didn't care what it looked like (more like too poor for pretty), it just had to work well and be reliable. Eventually after many gag trophies for "Ugliest Gun", I could afford better parts, better gunsmiths, prettier guns and now I'm like you. I do think knowing your gun runs increases your confidence and lets you concentrate more on the actual shooting regardless of whether it's a nice (pretty) gun or looks like you drug it to the range behind your car. Nolan

I agree with Braxton1. I think that comp is for a PCC similar to this 9mm SJC brake. It may work better rotated 90 degrees. Nolan

Sensitive much? I just said "Jerry seems to think it's OK for PCC and rimfire." No where in that sentence did I suggest that YOU said it was an improper way to shoot a gun. Nolan

Jerry seems to think it's OK for PCC and rimfire. Nolan

The real me was attempting sarcastic humor to the real Dirty_J about his lack of social graces in replying to your question. I had glanced through your post about the POF trigger and mis-remembered thinking you had an MPX. DOH! I should have just answered your question politely instead of trying for a couple of laughs from the peanut gallery. Since you shoot 3 gun, everything Max said applies even more to shooting the shotgun. Nolan

Bob Munden ?

As said, make sure the threaded end isn't staked or beat up, get some heat on the the threaded end, use the impact rated bits with one of these, https://www.amazon.com/TEKTON-2905-8-Inch-Manual-7-Piece/dp/B000NPPATS/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 Nolan

Or spoken like someone who has an MPX LOL! On a less humorous note, your reply is spoken like someone lacking in manners or certainly lacking in social skills. Nolan

KE Arms sells a very good handguard wrap that looks similar to the one ATI used to sell. I've been using one for my VR80 for about a year. Nolan http://www.kearms.com/shtf-wrap $30

You're late to the party LOL! https://forums.brianenos.com/topic/296977-ur-channel-video-hands-on-new-fx-10-progressive-press-from-frankford-arsenal/ There appears to be a LOT of tool head flex. Nolan

Yes, they are still in business and still shipping as fast as it's produced. They usually update the website between 1pm -3pm, Mountain Daylight time. Call them 406-755-2717. Usually only takes about 15 minutes to sell out. Nolan

I watched the video. Right at the start and in some later close-ups, there is way more tool head flex than the my old 1050's. I don't have a Super 1050 to compare to, but it looks like a lot of flex and they even talk about how important it is to have a blank die installed in any unused positions to counteract the flex. Nolan

I would disagree with you about drag racing being a participation sport. Have you been an NHRA competitor? I've helped wrench a couple of my friends cars and motorcycle. One to a division championship. I guarantee you, it is a tooth and nail competition, even for the unsponsored, two car home garage effort of my friends. Nolan

This! My rifle was dropped from about waist high onto concrete directly onto the elevation scope cap. Even though I had a Scope Coat on my Vortex Razor scope, it made the most sickening aluminum pipe dropped on the floor sound. The elevation cap had a good sized ding in the top and knurled edge, but unscrewed and the elevation knob inside appeared OKAY. I shot the rest of the match with no problems and when I had a chance to check the zero on a 200 yard range it hadn't changed. The scope was mounted in a Warne one piece mount. Nolan

My wife and I have an agreement: When she cooks, she washes the dishes. When I cook, she washes the dishes. When her laundry needs washing, she does the laundry. When my laundry needs washing including my stinky socks, she does the laundry. When her laundry is done and needs ironing, she does the ironing. When my laundry is done and needs ironing, she does the ironing. When my guns are dirty, I clean them. When her guns are dirty, I clean them. When I need or want a new gun, I buy or build one. When she needs or wants a new gun, I buy or build one. When I'm out of ammo, I load more ammo. When she's out of ammo, I load more ammo. Etc... This has worked very well for us, give it a try. Nolan

I think some of the CO growth is because it is something new. After a couple decades of competing with pistols almost exclusively, I was pretty burnt out and started shooting 3 Gun, then started shooting PCC. Now I'm starting to miss shooting pistol matches and may try CO, but I may just go shoot my Open and Limited guns again, if I can remember where my old belt and other gear is. Nolan

Odd how well having lots of divisions works so well in NHRA drag racing? Although they call them classes (over 200) and (15) eliminators. Same with many other motorsports. Nolan

Perfect! Nolan

It's so bad here in Commifornia I may have to go back to reloading shotshells.....shudder. I've still got a couple MEC presses somewhere, and components, but damn I HATE reloading shotshells. Nolan

Not a judgement, BUT.....when someone offers the advice that you asked for, it doesn't hurt to say "Thank You!" even if it is something you already know. You didn't post anything about having identified and fixed the problem until after you got your tighty whiteys in a bunch after someone offered sound advice. Nolan

I agree to dis-agree! I've taught many women and kids to shoot and have found the best progression to start with a red dot. Trying to teach a beginner to line up 4 things, (eye, rear sight, front sight, target) while keeping the correct part in focus on the right part of the target AND learning grip, and trigger control at the same time, is not as easy as it sounds. You are correct, it is MUCH harder to start, but it is MUCH easer to learn iron sights after they have learned all the other stuff like stance, grip, trigger control, etc... Also with kids, near instant success at putting bullets on target gets a very positive reaction. Nolan
