Eat at The Steakhouse in the Circus Circus.
The hotel and casino suck, but this old Vegas restaurant has the best steaks dinners I have ever had.

sounds like you have a Commander slide.

My Spikes tactical 22 that I built up using a JP HG is the most fun gun I own.

What press are you using.
I have never had a problem with high primers (even WSR) in any loads done on my 550-650 or by hand.
Sounds like you are "soft seating them". You can just about crush a primer in the hole without it going off.
Primers will slice through just about any crud and seat tightly.
You are more at risk of misfires due to the firing pin seating the primer than slam-fires.

I know a lot of people go on about the spiritual powers of the TRUE 1x power but I seldom use just 1x on my Meopta, I tend to use about 1.25 to 1.5 on most close paper out to 20m as I tend to find it faster than 1x. I think I am probably in the minority here though !
I only tend to use 1x on stuff closer than 10m.
Anything between 20 - 50m is between 1.5x and 2.0x and anything past 100m is impossible for any mortal human eye to shoot without ramping it up to 4x.
I can prove this as if you examine Kurt, Trapr or Kelly's shooting glasses they are actually have a special built in drop down 4x magnifying aid..... and you just thought they had really big bulbous eyes !!!

Shot them in a 3-gun match last weekend and they did add a bit of difficulty and fun. Seem about 2/3 scale.

Ok "pot stirring". Starting in the boat, motor up to bridge and procede to shoot 20 slugs from bridge

Good Will or Craigs list are grat bets. Built mine for $20

So a 1911 is a 2 stage trigger?
-
One huge problem with the pole is the AR Gold trigger which I think is much better (feel and design) than my JP's is listed as a double stage when it is really a single stage.
Feels like a good 1911 trigger. Light takeup, crisp break and short reset.

Ends at midnight tonight.

It will wear out after about $20,000 in ammo.

Hard to go wrong with the first guy to reply. Benny builds first rate guns, for a more than fair price.
I cant think of any gunsmith worth a darn that will accept a build under the terms you just stated.

1-9 should work for everything from 40 to 69gr.
I have had great luck with some brands of 55fmj (Hornady) and lousy luck with some others.
Depending on what length, gas system, weight ext. I would be happy to take it off your hands at the shot out rate?
-
Hate to ask but do you know you can shoot groups?
I have an old "shot out" M16 barrel that when screwed together with a free float handguard and ammo it likes it is a 1 1/4 MOA rifle, with crud ammo it is 2 1/2 MOA.
Also have a 1/4 MOA rifle that shoots 4 MOA with ammo it doesn't like.

"Rebuttals are not permitted"
But sometimes they are needed????
Sure complain about a store selling primers, then they wont be able to and at the same time suppliers wont be able to ship them to consumers. Then what?
-
Here in Florida I haven't noticed my V-Tac getting hot in the sun and it stays a whole lot cooler than any of the 4 rail ones.
I prefer the mounting and feel of the JP to any I have used.
I don't like the design of the Houge or the Clark carbon fiber but the MSTN design is nice.

Funny thing is every time I go to Santa Fe, all I can do is eat.
I believe the best food in the world is in Santa Fe.
Close enough to Las Cruces to have lots of good green chili, Indian flare with smokey red chili and a Spanish influence without being ruined by the California or Texas interpretations.

For load testing (groups) frame on bag arms on table at a solid seat.
Testing POI (sighting in) Freestyle.

I guess I'm a little anal about ammo
I guess when you spend time on your knees picking over and caressing brass instead of pouring out 5 gallon buckets of it you are a little more anal?
My Bedell has ran like a sewing machine since I bought it from Paul W lots and lots of rounds ago. I have no doubt that 38SC is softer and slightly faster and if your a high M or GM you need this %, I need rounds down range and my 9 works for me.

No its not. And its not worth breaking the locktite to install the old style tube.
Put in the order for just the tube and gas block with JP.
Then do the switch when the parts come in.
JP may break you a tube out if you tell them its for your 3-gun rifle.

Pistols and rifles will have different impact "sometimes large" points depending on how its rested or held.
My Open gun when sighted in for 25 yards off a rest hits 3" low offhand, even though groups don't enlarge much.
My comped AR's shoot 3-5" lower offhand as rested, and my High Power rifle shoots 3-4" high.
Depends on how the recoil vs. unlocking vs. hold change.
The only way to do it is sight in the way you plan on shooting the gun and reserve the bags for load testing groups.

Looks like a few major 9 cases I have.
Clays is great at 40 minor, but for short major loads.....WOW.....
