Beyond it All

Beyond it All (9/11)

  1. I only tried out a 9 major gun once and the dot was dancing all over the place. SV and Limcat sell guns with 2 top ends but at thousands extra when will you ever break even? Considering you’ll need a 2nd toolhead which for a mark7 ain’t cheap either. A few guys up here have a match 38 and practice 9. That’s a lotta $$$$
  2. And some guys use new 9mm starline for big matches.
  3. Did you tap the side of the die? Sometimes the lever inside gets stuck at “full”
  4. No idea, I just took it off and went through 3000pcs with a primer pocket tool attached to a drill. Ugh. I now have an empty station on the swage die, it’s unnecessary with supercomp. I should have known there was an issue with a 6 or 7 clutch setting but I’ve never used a swage hold down die.
  5. I have always just assumed it was either for a double or no charge. I’ve had a no charge once or twice for some unknown reason (digital powder measure).
  6. I’ve seen the laser check stuff but I don’t see the need for the little I load (135,000 in 3yrs). As for the FW die my swage one broke? All I know is I didn’t notice, cranked up the clutch and deformed the primer pockets of thousands of supercomp
  7. I was loading 3grns of n320 behind a 165gr projectile so I’m assuming it wasn’t enough to burn completely. Currently using the same load for 231 My quick search revealed 244 is harder to find and more $ than 231.
  8. In my revolver n320 was a LOT dirtier than 231. I could see instantly my brass was cleaner when I switched (only because I ran out of 320 and it’s currently unobtanium) Cheaper AND cleaner? Win win.
  9. Given 244 is more dense, I assume it will be cheaper per round? I've got 24lbs of 231 so this is more for curiosity than anything
  10. I had some issues with the FART. Kinda I would heat up the used Brass Juice mix and sometimes I forgot and it went in the tumbler HOT. This stretched out the seals and they don't sell new ones (anymore). Turns out just cutting the excess does the trick. (it's hard as %%%% to put the lid on with a oversize seal) And one day I forgot about it and it cooled down and collapsed the tub. So I bought a spare FART and used the new tub. Then years later I found the stashed collapsed tub and it went back to it's original shape!
  11. Sorta zombie thread I guess? It's been a few years now and I run my supercomp at 1730 rpm (actual) and 9mm revo at 2506. My paddle fell off the primer disc and am too lazy to glue it back so I have a pick and watch the primers and pick off the sideways ones. It was those that would jam at the paddle anyway. My primer orientation sensor is still hit an miss and IMO needs a redesign. Has Mark7 issued any new upgrades for the revo/evo pro?

  13. TK is now making brass specific moons for FC and Remington.
