Criteria for Cancelling a Scheduled Match
briansea2 replied to Muzzleflash's topic in General Match Issues
I can tell you are not from around here Washington that is, if they canceled a match because it was wet, raining or rain was predicted we would only have 2 or 3 matches a year. They did cancel one a few years ago I hear it was the first time, many of the bays had something like 3' of water. -
I made a little frame out of 1/2" PVC and then put it inside of the trim on a pillow case. Then it hangs on the side of the bay and I can adjust it so the brass goes right in. Gets about 95% of the brass and folds up real nice. Looks stupid I must say but it does work.

Being an open shooter I must say I agree with Jon. No way we need to take our blasters apart just because somebody has a hair where it does not belong.

Any restrictions on color or patterns for soft cover?
briansea2 replied to Skydiver's topic in USPSA/IPSC Rules
You might get away with doing it once :_) actually I think a black sheet type soft cover about the same color as a "Tan" front sight would be fun. B -

Is the Lee product as bad as they say?
briansea2 replied to dskinsler83's topic in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
I must be 1 of very few that is happy with the lee loadmaster. It gets me about 600 an hour in .40 or 9. I do resize in the same station as the prime stage so it is always aligned. Sometimes I can only do 450 because I screw up. It is a good press for the money but I need about 4 times the output now I shoot open Still a good press. Takes about 5 min to switch between 40 and 9 and when I want to do 223 well that takes about 7 min to get it ready. -
The only time you can tell the difference is when you load um up w/bullets. They are a little rough around the edges but work just fine. I have never had any issues with them, they work as advertised.

Best way to clean/degrease slide glide?
briansea2 replied to G34 CORDY's topic in General Gunsmithing
I have a little container of diesel in the garage and a tooth brush works wonders. Hit it with some air and wipe it down and you are good to go. Works really well on that nasty powder buildup also. B -
You mean there is more than one?

Gee and I thought you were talking about this: Subject: Now this is a gun ! No hiding place from new U.S. Army rifles that use radio-controlled smart bullets · · · Weapon hailed as a game-changer that can fire up and over barriers and down into trenches · Soldiers will start using them in Afghanistan later this month The U.S. army is to begin using a futuristic rifle that fires radio-controlled 'smart' bullets in Afghanistan for the first time, it has emerged. The XM25 rifle uses bullets that are programmed to explode when they have travelled a set distance, allowing enemies to be targeted no matter where they are hiding. The rifle also has a range of 2,300 feet making it possible to hit targets which are well out of the reach of conventional rifles. The XM25 is being developed specially for the U.S. army and will be deployed with troops from later this month, it was revealed today. The XM25 Counter Defilade Target Engagement System has a range of roughly 2,300 feet - and is to be deployed in Afghanistan this month The rifle's gunsight uses a laser rangefinder to determine the exact distance to the obstruction, after which the soldier can add or subtract up to 3 metres from that distance to enable the bullets to clear the barrier and explode above or beside the target. Soldiers will be able to use them to target snipers hidden in trenches rather than calling in air strikes. The 25-millimetre round contains a chip that receives a radio signal from the gunsight as to the precise distance to the target. Lt. Col. Christopher Lehner, project manager for the system, described the weapon as a ‘game-changer’ that other nations will try and copy. He expects the Army to buy 12,500 of the XM25 rifles this year, enough for every member of the infantry and special forces. Lehner told FoxNews: ‘With this weapon system, we take away cover from [enemy targets] forever. ‘Tactics are going to have to be rewritten. The only thing we can see [enemies] being able to do is run away.’ Experts say the rifle means that enemy troops will no longer be safe if they take cover The XM25 appears the perfect weapon for street-to-street fighting that troops in Afghanistan have to engage in, with enemy fighters hiding behind walls and only breaking cover to fire occasionally. The weapon's laser finder would work out how far away the enemy was and then the U.S. soldier would add one metre using a button near the trigger. When fired, the explosive round would carry exactly one metre past the wall and explode with the force of a hand grenade above the Taliban fighter. The army's project manager for new weapons, Douglas Tamilio, said: ''This is the first leap-ahead technology for troops that we've been able to develop and deploy.' A patent granted to the bullet's maker, Alliant Techsystems, reveals that the chip can calculate how far it has travelled. Mr Tamilio said: 'You could shoot a Javelin missile, and it would cost £43,000. These rounds will end up costing £15.50 apiece. They're relatively cheap. Lehner added: ‘This is a game-changer. The enemy has learned to get cover, for hundreds if not thousands of years. ‘Well, they can't do that anymore. We're taking that cover from them and there's only two outcomes: We're going to get you behind that cover or force you to flee.’ The rifle will initially use high-explosive rounds, but its makers say that it might later use versions with smaller explosive charges that aim to stun rather than kill.

I get that when I have the powder drop set to deep, Bells the case so much that it drags on the way out. That may be your problem also. B
