Me too

Paul , I had a few weird things going on at one time . I always stayed logged in at that time . now I try to remember to log out each time . I need to log in every time now , and things have been flawless since I've been doing this . I also try to shutdown my computer more often ...

I "never " cut into the shoulder , when I turn necks . I cut until I just kiss , or scratch the shoulder . that's as deep as I go . my reason being , I don't know how thick the shoulder brass is , and I don't want to weaken the neck / shoulder junction . ( there is a thread about the necks...

tossing this batch is probably best . they could be stress cracked inside , from the manufacturing process , and nothing to see by looking at the outside of the case .

we all know brass moves , or we would not have to trim our cases . donuts are formed from thicker shoulder brass moving into neck brass . how this happens , I'm not sure . repeated firing and sizing causing the brass to move , is my guess . I would say over working the brass would...

the neck coming of is not a PSI problem . it's a brass problem .

Mark , I was going to start testing this , but life got in the way . I just love a new rabbit hole to go sniffing through . I have read there is only so much neck tension you can get by sizing the neck smaller . because the bullet acts like an expander mandrel . what I've read...

I found it . I know nothing about these , I only know they are available . http://www.mercuryrecoil.com/

I hate to get in this conversation , because I'm really ignorant to this computer stuff . so if you ask me questions , I might not be able to give you an answer . a tree stump is more savvy than I . I've had quickload since the year 2000 . I've been able to load the original disc , and...

I would not recommend adding that much weight . there was a gizmo for in the butt stock for helping recoil . I "THINK " it was called something like a " Mercury recoil reducer " . I'm not sure of the weight , effectiveness , or price . I'll do a little searching around , and see if I can...

I also have a Tikka T1x . it's a good shooting rifle . the BBL comes threaded . forgot to mention , the bolt cycles smoothly .

this looks absolutely like "SPAM" to me .

on the lease I was in , there was a tripod stand with the cloth camo . the cloth failed during the first winter . you have a good plan , of removing it after hunting season . looks like a nice stand , with easy entry and exit .
