How much of each ammo are you loading? If like most people it is 9mm, .40 and .223 then buy a 750 or 1050 for those three. Use a good turret for everything else, for me that is .308, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 Grendel and 6.8. I still have my old 550 for 45 ACP and charging, seating bullets on the 6.8. I keep the 550 set up for large primers, my 650 for small primers.

Out of coated bullets, Blue Bullets with Titegroup does not smoke very much. Other coated bullets smoke pretty bad with Titegroup. I have a couple thousand other coated 9mm bullets so I changed my powder from Titegroup to Sport Pistol. Sport Pistol in my 40's with Blue Bullets is very clean, even the brass looks like it was just tumbled!

They are designed to hold snow boards on snow boarder's feet. Velco won't do that.

I have my ratchet on a Safariland belt, just trimmed till it has an inch gap wrapped around me.

I wet tumble with Brass Juice, no pins. Run my FART 30-40 minutes and brass comes out pretty clean. After resizing I clean off lube in my FART with Blue Coral car wash soap and no pins. Really looks nice after and all the lube is gone.

I start the tab into the ratchet then wrap the belt around me starting at the holster, since it is the most important thing on the belt. When the holster is perfect, I start tightening the ratchet, and yes over the inner Velco belt.

Did you get the thigh pad to go with it?

Good chance Jerry may have made it. He is a pretty good machinist/gunsmith in his own right and has a nice shop at home.

How does the Everglades work for a 2011 Edge with the STI plastic grip?

We took some MGM plate racks and made an axle on one end using wheel borrow wheels (was maybe a foot wider total than the plate rack) and then put a piece of tubing and hitch on the other end. I have seen plate racks mounted on good size solid rubber casters.

More likely a comp you don't need to remove to change chokes.

Check out M2 Inc, only thing limiting you is your imagination. They ship super fast, my order went out 3 hours after I placed it!

CDI and Precision Instruments made torque wrenchs for Snap-On until about 10 years ago. The Snap-On made their own the electronic torque wrenches. The CDI and Precision Instruments are a lot better. I have both including some that are 40 years old. The CDI/Precision are much better than the in house Snap-On wrenches and are a lot cheaper.

To Dallas area, either one. The range is west of Fort Worth, just south of Weatherford

Thanks!

Steve, how high should the block be?

What are you going to use your shotgun for?

You could always drive up to the Austin area and have Virgil Tripp or Aaron/Ben Hayes go though the pistol.

Could you tell us more about the gun? Parts used, how much work you did yourself, sent out?

Magnums are fine, all I use are Remington 7 1/2 on rifle and 5 1/2 on pistol. They work great.

I have one on my PCC, works great, shake awake, clear. Read the instructions to set up, the reticile can be set constant, or automatic. Use constant for competition.

I have ordered Taran's base pads, springs, followers. They get out orders in a few days, but the post office where they are is pretty poor and loses stuff right and left. However when they do TT stands up big time. The post office there lost my order, and TT called me back that afternoon because the tracking number was issued but never moved. TT because of the hassle sent me a couple extra packages of mag springs and followers for the hassle. One problem with the shotguns, pistols is the time custom building them, plus if one of the gunsmiths get sick, goes on vacation stuff gets behind. Now they should let you know and give you some idea on delivery.

One thing most important NEVER, NEVER, touch your press or handle primers without safety glasses on!!!!! That way if something goes wrong your eyes are protected!

Use the large, the small bar does less that perfect drops getting close to 20 gr's. Now the small bar works great in the 3-10 grain range.

Look at 'the most frequently purchased together' you know who is buying the most..
