  1. In this powder drought, I have found a 4# jug of WSF. Neither of my manuals list any loads for it. I will be loading plated bullets in 230gr 45 and 124gr 9mm.
  2. Sportsman warehouse, 19205 N. 27th Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85027-5034, is where I go to get my VihtaVuori powder. There is a Bass Pro in Mesa, but I don't know what powder they have.
  3. Has any tried the new powder CFE223 from Hodgdon? http://hodgdon.com/rifle.html Does it really reduce copper fouling? I would like to know before i start reloading my hoard of 223.
  4. Do you have the optional Cartridge case bin/bracket? The empty case bin goes on the the triangle. The finished round bin sits on the two pieces of metal under the chute.
  5. I have extended the sides and back by taping cardboard to the inside. Now it catches almost all the primers
  6. I was looking at the ebay ads to see if there were any good deals on stuff I might need when I saw this. My link Does anybody use one? What exactly does this do? It looks like a plastic washer.
  7. Has anyone tried Froglube? http://www.froglube.com/roothome.htm Does it work as it claims? Fouling just wipes off? Cleaning time reduced? I am always on the look out for way to making cleaning easier and faster.
  8. I got a whole closet full of those too, but mine all have load ammo in them. Needed something for the left over in between reloadings.
  9. I picked a bunch of these up to put my nails and screws in. It then dawns on me that they would make great bullet & brass storage containers too. They are clear plastic, stackable, and have a latching top to prevent spillage. I got mine at Walmart in the plastic storage totes aisle. They come in two sizes. Half of the time when the Ups drops off the bullet boxes, they are barely holding together.
  10. I thought they had a plant in NC.
  11. For that price you could have almost bought a press.
  12. Keep an eye on your local Craigslist or ebay. Every now again a dillon will appear. If doesn't work you can always ship it back to dillon for the lifetime repair work they offer
  13. I was at Sears today and they had the Craftman tool chest on sale. I picked up a 4 drawer tool chest to go along with the bench and rolling cabinet I already have. I put all of my magazines in one drawer. I was tried of digging around the box they were in trying to find the ones I wanted. Now I need to go the the hardware store to get more Akro bins. In another drawer I put all of my holsters and ammo carriers. I still have two drawer to fill up.
  14. Finally, an air freshener you can hang in a man cave. http://www.hoppes.com/products/ca_air_freshener.html
  15. I took one of my die boxes down to the local True Value. They carry the Pratt & Lambert paints. I went with Anchor's Aweigh 25-10 for the color. http://www.prattandlambert.com/prattapp/color_visualizer/. The first coat is drying and it is really a close match. True Value also have the small 2oz color samples jars so touch will be no problem. I am also painting the bench top too
  16. I am finally getting my reloading room in order in the new house. I will be putting up some shelves and want to paint them the Dillon blue color. Does anybody knowthe color code/color name? If not, I'll have to try and do the eyeball comparison with the color swatches.
  17. What type of powder are you using? The stick powders sometimes can form a dam in the drop tube.
  18. Ace hardware has several sizes of the Akro bins, just not in Dillon blue.
  19. I bought some Berry's 124gr FN bullets for plinking. What COL should I load them at? They looked to be shorter than a HP & FMJ bullets.
  20. I have taped some thin cardboard pieces to mine on the sides. The card board extends up from catch bin maybe an extra inch. This has cut down on the spilled primers. The only problem with the set up is I have to lower the handle to move the primer chute out so i can take it off to dump the primers.
  21. from the hd web site. I stopped by the local ones here and they weren't instock. http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores...mp;ddkey=Search
