BRRC and WSRC may also have them and are very close.

I've been following your progree and I'm looking forward to a session update reloading.

2018 was marked by the addition of a 1050 to my 650s. The 1050 exceeded my expectations and as always the Factory support was the best. Thanks,

Congratulations. It took longer to get the bullets than the gun. LOL

I'm always amazed by these threads. You can't shoot plated any cheaper than jacketed. What reason could there be to justify plated ?

There is seller on Etsy that offers handmade Dillon covers in your pick of fabrics including waterproof.

I bought the same upgrades when I purchased my 1050. So far I haven't seen the need. Loading 9 and the 1050 is perfect. 6 months in.

I think your only looking for the combination of your load, bullet type, springs, grip, etc. that let the gun track repeatedly. Whatever works for you. From shorties to full long dust cover they all work for someone.

Cheapest I can find. For major matches I use FSR but never had a bad primer in 100,000 plus rounds.

Skip, i don't know if you reload or not. Shooting open isn't that much more expensive than CO. These are many used open guns on this forum that are reliable guns from reliable shooters. If your shooting jacketed or plated your ammo costs will be identical. I suggest using JHP only.

Hi Skip, I'm 69 and slow and accurate seems to describe most of the super seniors. We really compete against ourselves so comparisons to others is not that important to me. I like shooting open much more than CO. I find quite a difference with a tuned load and a good comp in how the guns shoot. I'm sure some of the guys you shoot with would be happy to let you try their open blaster. You may find you have even more fun.

Good advice on the comp. I use PD at 1.165 in 3 guns. That will give you the flexibility to use different powders

I like the Rothman's tugboat.

That's the ticket Tony. Nice setup.

PCC shooters used to shoot at carnivals. They can win all the bunny rabbits. They're sure faster than me.

Refreshing to get real transparency in this era.

I've had everything mentioned. Schuemann is I believe out of business. I have one open with a Bar-Sto. This a very accurate .barrel

I've only had my 1050 6 months and love it. I still have a 650 and its a great machine. But the 1050 is sensational. You will need extra primer tubes!! I have left my ratchet on and will continue to. It very rarely is a hassle and I like the safety. Congratulations on your new machine. Your gonna like the way it loads.

There are no rational Open shooters for the black art. LOL

Try 5.3 of Win 231 with 7# spring. 124PD JHP bullets. 1.165 LOA.

I purchased the ball bearings and extra set of spacers. I run 2 MBF.

Very happy with mine. Call Bob. He is very knowledgable and will treat you right.

Outstanding contribution.

Your welcome.

Which do you shoot better- TSO or 2011. There's your answer. You can sell both 2011 and buy another TSO if you shoot the better.CZ
