I am a nobody in the competitive shooting sports world. I think I met Dwight at Del Tone and ended up buying five hundred bullets from him when he still lived in st cloud before he sold his machine to Rick. I tagged along to a couple matches, but only watched admiringly from the sidelines. I lived in Phoenix years ago and had Nelson Ford do some awesome triggers on some of my revolvers. It was much easier in the late eighties to find places to shoot targets and plink. From where i lived in North Phoenix I could drive out to a good shooting spot in fifteen minutes! I used to work at a machine shop that did parts for Dillon so I was able to get set up for dirt cheap, though I dont have any of it anymore. Thirteen ounces, wow! I think Nelson did my .44 magnums at 2 3/4 lbs and I thought that was good. I live in Champlin, mn now and will message you my info in case you are in this area. Maybe I could go watch you break in that gun at your range. I used to have a book by Laslo Antal precision pistol target shooting. Slow one handed shooting is more my style unless i had a lot of .223 or .308 ammo to shoot. A friend is getting into reloading big time so I will be practicing with him occasionally. Good luck, friend. Nic R.

I remember how tight those actions were when Dwight finished a new one. Is Dwight still working up in Alexandria? He sold his bullet casting machine to Rick Kaeter when he moved up there and I bought a bunch of those bullets from Rick way back then. I lost track of Rick. I havent seen either one of those guys for maybe 25 years. A friend is just getting going with a new Dillon and I thought I would jump online and see where I can direct him to find some of those VMAX bullets that I used to shoot non-competitively in my old govt. model. It is very curious that I found your recent post the first time I searched for some of Dwight's bullets. At a hundred yards it was great fun to plink with those because I wouldn't have to aim six feet low to hit anything! I think had to change the recoil spring, but I can't remember. Maybe someone can refresh my memory. I didnt have a chronograph, but i loaded them kind of hot and it cycled differently, of course.
