  1. Great news! One of those and a G conversion kit and my Inox Brig will be a fitting mate to my Brig Tac! Thanks Les! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  2. I wouldnt lighten them at all. You wont notice the difference once the timer beeps! IMO, your biggest problem is switching platforms right before a match, especially moving from a heavy all steel gun to polymer. That plastic gun will dance all over compared to the cz. Have fun and good luck! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  3. Nope. Stuff em right in the Beretta 92. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  4. You read my mind! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  5. Thanks otteroman....thaks kind of the conclusion I came to as well. Im going to give Hornady a call on Monday as well, but I dont see any other alternative right now. Now I have to find some disassembly instructions! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  6. I have the shell plate and primer shuttle removed. It feels like its hanging up on the surface between the main ram and the drive shaft. No lube points that I can see. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  7. Nope....i have the ram lubed. Its the drive hub....the rotating cylinder inside of the ram Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  8. My lock n load's drive hub is hanging up a touch on both the upstroke and downstroke. I dont see any obvious lubrication points. Any ideas? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  9. I try to have enough on hand for a week in advance....so I guess that would be as I need it. I know another guy who reloads all winter....just shoots and collects brass during the season Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  10. Adjust powder measure and seating die....diff powders and bullets...10 minutes Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  11. Size of target? Distance to target? Partial with no-shoot? From concealment? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  12. Mine smell like firecrackers Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  13. Finally pulled the trigger and signed up for the Michigan sectional this weekend. I hope the shirt is worth it Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  14. Can you make one for a LNL? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  15. Christmas tree light timeer? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  16. I just picked up 10k at Cabelas lastbweek, but they only had 13k on the shelf Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  17. Tell me more about this? My only squib ever came about when my powder measure unlocked and got pushed up instead of dropping a charge in one case before I noticed. Now I check it every time I refill the primer tube but if there's a permanent fix I'd be happy!Also, Hornady (and RCBS) CS have been great to me too. They don't brag about No BS but they sure deliver on it. Pete, I just ran a couple revolutions of teflon tape on the bushing before inserting....im sure any tape would workSent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  18. Just wanted to share some love about Hornady CS this morning. I broke a shell plate pawl on my LNL yesterday (totally my fault, I forced it instead of loosening the shell plate to remove a case with a partially seated primer). I just called Hornady and they are dropping two new pawls in the mail today at no charge. Well done I couldnt ask for more. To be honest I wouldn't have had an issue with paying for them. That is what keeps customers. [emoji106] [emoji106] [emoji3] Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  19. Thanks guys I will pass rhis along! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  20. Im not sure. Its a SA Range Officer Compact...8 round 9mm mags...i just assumed rhey would be too thin for a mag pouch designed for 45 acp. Am I wrong? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  21. Anybody have a recommendation for a 1911 9mm single stack mag pouch for uspsa or idpa? I have a buddy who wants to try it out but his gun is a bit of an oddball. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  22. I am thinking I have worn out my first trigger bar spring. Today during a practice session i suddenly lost my DA trigger pull. It was as if the safety were on, but SA was normal. After removing the grips and playing around with the gun, I was able to get the DA to work by lifting the trigger bar ever-so-slightly, or I could just nudge the hammer back a hair and the trigger bar would raise and engage. Have I diagnosed this right? Or might it be something else? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  23. I run a 9 lb on a Brig slide behind 147 gr at 130 pf Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
  24. That is your problem. Or rather, you are not drying your cases well enough before reloading, and the residue moisture is killing your primers. I ran into this exact issue after I started wet tumbling. It cost me a barrel. Dont make the same mistake. I started using the FA dryer from MidwayUSA, and never had the issue again. You think? I let them dry on a towel for at least 24 hours before reloading. I will say this, i used to punch the primers before cleaning, but i went back to cleaning before primer removal a couple months ago. I wonder if the lack of that hole is slowing the drying process? I will try drying the cases in the oven and see if that helps. Thanks!![emoji106] Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk Yes!24 hrs with no heat isnt long enough. A fan wont dry all of my cases in 24 hrs depending on the temp/humidity inside. These have been decapped, leaving a primer in will take even longer. Now that its summer, I dry them on a wire mesh table I built outside. Winter time 2 hrs at 230 in the oven usually does the job. Do you deprime first?Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk I do, but I have an autodrive. I probably wouldnt it it was my arm doing the work.DWFAN, thank you for your help. You were right on the mark about the moisture. I broke out my dehydrator and PRESTO the problem disappeared. I didnt have this problem over the winter, I am thinking that with the really dry air over winter they dried just fine. With the arrival of humidity to northern Ohio, I found the weak point in my system the hard way.I owe you a beer if we ever meet! Now I just have to burn up about 500 suspect rounds. On the bright side I should be awesome at malfunction clearing by the end of the month! [emoji106] [emoji106] [emoji106] [emoji106] [emoji106] Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk
