I use Fidelity for long duration trades. I used to dabble in the day trading world. If you want to play small scale at that I recommend Suretrader as it is offshore and you can bypass the pattern day trader rule if you want to play with a small account. They have reasonably priced trades and Level II access.

Green is my preference. I find it very beneficial to put new ones in fairly frequently as the newer ones are always brighter - not sure why. Maybe the top and ends get scuffed and don't transmit light as well?

I prefer the CE Pocket Pro II over all the others. Rugged, loud beep, large enough not to lose.

I just can't see the benefit (for show maybe?). Since there is no benefit, I prefer to move slow and cautiously around a loaded gun.

Yeah sometimes simple is better. A lot of modifications that are sold are solutions in search of a problem. I suggest polishing the powder dropper and powder funnel with jewelers polish to make drops more consistent. Also, it helps to ground the press (like a subwoofer). Just fasten a piece of cooper wire to the press and attach it the the screw holding a nearby outlet plate in place and that will eliminate static buildup. I do recommend a shell bearing kit (including replacement detent ball) for both the 1050 and 650. I also have the Level 10 Spring Elimination kit and that seems to smooth it out. A light kit is a great addition as well.

I used to shoot 100 yards fairly consistently. Hit one at 200 once but that was shear luck.

Shooting with both eyes open all the time was one of the hardest things for me to overcome. Just took tons of conscious effort and practice. If you stick with it, you will be rewarded!

Range brass cleanup
jmaples71 replied to mwx40x40's topic in Miscellaneous Topics That Do Not Fit in Any Other Forum
We had the lead from our bays recently reclaimed. I bet one of those guys would also do the brass do. Send me a PM and I will send you the contact info for the lead guy we used. -

I just don't sell across state lines. Make sure to get a copy of their valid driver's license and preferably a concealed carry permit along with a bill of sale. -
Are you 50 years old?

Oh the joy of getting older! -
I wore soft contacts from 6th grade until age 32 then switched to hard contacts. Been wearing hard contacts now for 14 years. Best decision ever. They take about 2 weeks to get used to and require 2-3 fittings as your eye reshapes, but way worth it. Zero eye dryness and they are sharper than soft contacts or glasses since they are hard plastic.

Had same issue with vitamin D during winter. Summer I get out enough to recharge but supplements help during the winter months.
