Super 1050 loading experience and issues
99mpower replied to MG08's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Are you running the 1050 manually? -
I process all my brass before hand for loading. Rollsize FW. Arms universal self centering decapper FW. Arms swage back up station 4 is www.thejudgedie.com with sensor to catch all the stepped brass station 5 is dillon size die (I NEVER undersize, its a bandaid, and wrong. Rollsizing brass is proper BEFORE sizing) Loading Lee Universal decapper to catch anything that may of gotten in there Lyman M die in primer station MBF powder funnel in 4 MBF bullet feeder in 5 Redding micrometer seating die dillon crimp die

loading short for a short throat is no problem, just maybe a slight powder change to meet your PF expectations My Tanfo's love being under 1.100, so I keep them at 1.095, with zero issues on 147 RN. 135 RN shouldnt be an issue as well. Glock throats are LONG, as I have loaded for my 34, at 1.155. Can defiitely see the CZ liking them short though

I built 8' benches, 2.5' wide on the top bench, and 2- 2' shelves under it. Having the 2.5' top bench is worth every penny for the 6" IMHO. Ive had a 2' bench and felt cramped, especially with a 8-10" in the back for shelving.

mojoprecision.com Judge die... its a sensor/die for Mark 7 and Ammobot. Trips the machine when it recognizes stepped brass, and now they even have one to get the MINOR stepped brass specifically for 9mm

17rd mag with the Springer Precision basepad, and the grams kit, reliable 23rd magazines in my Legion. Havent had an issue, except that when the round shows 17, its actually 18. The gram follower, changes the location of the "windows" in the mag

pretty crazy evolution on this project. nicely done staying with it

Love the Delta Point Pro from Leupold without spending a ton of money. Some other great options lately from Sig, but they can get pretty expensive

How to improve on the First Stage Of the Day
99mpower replied to TFT_Guns_Up's topic in Mental Conditioning
Im usually the first or second as well. Same situation as you, as a higher mid pack guy. I always remind myself to grip the gun hard enough, and multiple mental walk throughs has helped increase my first stage jitters -
IF the stage designer wanted you to start in a different ready condition, it must be clearly stated in the WSB 8.1.3 Courses of fire may require ready conditions which are different to those stated above. In such cases, the required ready condition must be clearly stated in the written stage briefing. When a firearm Ready Condition requires a firearm be prepared with a n empty chamber (or cylinder), the slide/bolt of the firearm must be fully forward (or the cylin der must be fully closed) and the hammer or striker must be fully down or fully forward, as the case may be, unless otherwise specified in the stage briefing.
-
USPSA rules for a single action pistol, loaded, are hammer back, safety on USPSA rules for an unloaded start, are hammer down, safety off I've never seen a stage where you start in condition 3 (mag inserted, no round in chamber)

Cross eye dominant. Right handed, left eye dominant. I have trained myself to shoot right eye'd. Felt more comfortable, and I started that training as soon as I started shooting. Had a good instructor who helped that day. Been 10+ years, and am 100% glad I switched eyes. Right handed, shoot pistol right, and rifle right. Makes transitions easier when carrying a primary/secondary weapon, makes weapon manipulation easier since I'm using my strong hand/side. All around, I'm more comfortable and happy.

RMR is where I get all my rifle bullets from for plinking. Bergers for competition, and Blues for pistol stuff
-
Ammobot on a 1050 with pocket probe. Just processed 21k pcs of 45acp. Only had 952pcs of SPP. Pretty surprising actually. Last 20k run of brass I processed, almost 4k of SPP. Just depends on where you get it, when, and from who.
-
no need for pistol rounds, unless you are shooting bullseye competition, and want to verify the ammo is as precise as possible. More often then not, ammo is more precise then you anyways. I only clean primer pockets on my precision rifle ammo
-
Leave it blank if you have verified they are all sized. Loading full processed brass makes life so much easier. Not just on you, but also the machine as well
-
If you can stock/save, Blue Bullets or Gallant or any of the other coated bullets usually run big sales on Black Friday.

trays are cheapest buying already sorted is nice ultimate sorter for home use and allows you to make some money back selling whatever you dont want buy 2 ultimate sorters on the tray system roll sorter (start at $4500) bowl sorter (start at $12k)

Powder bar accuracy upgrade tricks?
99mpower replied to DIYguy's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Not sure what powder you are using, but Titegroup eats up the plastic something fierce. .05gn improvement is nice for anything, ill take the smaller ES/SDs and move on. Busting balls on 1SG, I'm a chief in the Navy -
Dillon 9mm upgraded shell plate?
99mpower replied to chgofirefighter's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
sizing during the processing run, makes loading much easier. I decap, swage, sort (judge die from Mojo Precision) to remove the stepped brass, and size during processing. Makes loading very problem free. -
Powder bar accuracy upgrade tricks?
99mpower replied to DIYguy's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
glad you know it all. All depends on how accurate you want the loads to be. Dram worx hopper keeps it from turning colors, less static, and IMHO, better powder drops. Polishing the bar, I noticed almost a .05gn increase in accuracy in drops, and keeping powder over 1/2 full has shown to help as well (I havent tested this enough, but since I started keeping it over 1/2, I havent had any issues, and its easy to do when you have a larger hopper from DW) For being a 1SG, dont take recommendations very well. -
rollsizing is VERY big in 40cal, due to the "glock bulge" www.rollsizer.com is the big commercial rollsizer I use, and after using it on 9, 40, 45, 223, and 308, rollsizing makes life so much easier. No longer do u "need" an undersize die, because the base is back to being correct, the press doesnt have to work so hard to size, and everything runs smoother. Rollsizing has almost made, chamber checking, obsolete. I still chamber check everything in hundos, but im OCD about that crap.
-
probably solved, but people continue to have issues with the U die, as they use it to try and fix something thats not there. The solution is rollsizing, not undersizing the brass.

i have... as long as you remove the stepped stuff, and process on a 1050/1100/2000, all the stuff gets swaged anyways. Judge die from Mojo precision, and youre good to go. Just processed 20k pcs myself actually
