    reloading 9mm major for steel challenge.

     

    Why ?  Major for SC is like using an 18 wheeler to bring home a gallon of milk from the store.

     

    And we've been through this over and over - rifle primer in pistol loads is not a good idea.  It will work, but not a good idea.

     

  2. 1) I don't usually talk with my doctors about shooting. 

     

    2) When I was diagnosed with T1D, I really took a step back and tried to make sense of what it might affect. I know how to manage it but sometimes it has other ideas. So I've always communicated with those I shoot with about what to look for as far as hypoglycemic episodes go.  Other than making other aware, it's all good.

     

    I can't imagine anything short of Parkinson's or recovering from major surgery that would make me stop shooting.    

  3. An update from this week :)

     

    From the CRPA Website -

     

    On June 30, 2022, the United States Supreme Court finally acted on pending Second Amendment certiorari petitions. First among them is Duncan v. Bonta, the now famous case which heralded “freedom week” back in 2019. The court issued a “GVR,” which is short for grant, vacate, and remand. That means the petition for supreme court review is granted, the lower court opinion is vacated of any legal precedential significance, and then case is then sent back down to the appeal court to be adjudicated in a manner consistent with the court’s opinion in the Bruen case that it ruled on last week. This is extremely positive and exciting news that we’ve been anticipating for a long time.

     

     

  4. I reload for trap and in my O/U, they are just fine. Cost these days using new shot is still at $ 10 / box but at least I can make ammo to shoot.

     

    To make shotgun reloads that will run 100% in an autoloader I think would be a challenge.  Not impossible but I think out of 25 there may be 4 or 5 that I wouldn't trust on the clock. 

     

    Where I can save $ is on practice loads in which I use reclaimed shot that's half the price of new and get the box price down to $ 7 with the current cot of oprimers, wads & powder.

     

    I'm still using up stuff I bought years ago so technically I'm around 4 but sooner or later I will need to buy new stuff.

  5. These came to me in a package deal and I don't need them so before they go to the recycler, I wanted to offer them to you all.

     

    They are all pretty much like this - some with writing / most without. Number in front of them is how many there are available.

     

    The ones on the left appear  to be for 44 mag/45 LC but will hold 45 ACP / 40S&W/ 10 mm  just fine.  The ones on the right are 380/9mm .

     

    Take 1 or take all or whatever in bewteen - I don't care.

     

    They are yours for shipping cost. I'll recycle an Amazon box and ship the cheapest way possible.  

     

    If I don't get a taker by Monday, June 20th they will go to the recycler.

     

    Thanks

    This last weekend I ventured out of town because there were no local matches. I drove 2 hours to a range I've never shot at. It's a nice range and they had 5 good stages. My complaint is I was in the middle of a 12 person squad and when I was up next to shoot a M PCC shooter that was 2 shooters behind me always had the shooting area at every stage. I never had a private walk through before my turn at the match I'm a B Carry Optics from out of town and he was the local M shooter so obviously after the 3rd stage and me bumping into him I just gave up. I didn't realize how much this throws your game off. 

     

     

     

    His name wasn't Mark Weaver was it ?
