    Raffle ??

    Just for sake of conversation; if all 146 forum members contributed $10 each that is $1,460. If you set it up for a chance on a pistol in the $460 range there is still a $1,000 contribution to the forum. At lower cost and higher participation, you could do more raffles. At odds of 1:146, I...

    My wife would like a shotgun!

    Great choice! There is nothing that says "don't come in here" like the sound of pump action shotgun. It is like a rattlesnake; even if you never heard one before, you instinctively know that sound and know that it is not somewhere you want to be.

    Tumblers - What is the advantage?

    I have always used a tumbler because I like to get as much oxidation and residue off of the cases before running them through my dies. Also, there is something about clean shiny cases that is appealing. I think I will try your way to see how that works. The tumbler does not get the inside of...

    Reloading and the very beginner

    I see you addressed you question to Skip, but I will jump in. Price the individual components that you actually need and then compare that cost to the "kit" prices which will include some stuff you really do not need. If the kit price is still lower than the component price, it doesn't hurt to...

    Powder question

    I use an RCBS powder dispenser. I set it up and carefully adjust the dropped charge until it is exact using a Cabela's digital powder scale and check that with an RCBS balance beam scale. After I am sure of the powder charge, I start charging cartridges and stop after every tenth or fifteenth...

    Reloading and the very beginner

    I have been reloading most of my ammo (rifle, pistol and shotgun) for the last fifty-four years. I started with a LEE hand loader that you used a hammer to re-size, prime and seat the bullets. It was a disaster but it worked. I quickly got a single station press and have been using the same...

    When to CC?

    With the obvious caveat that every State's laws on CC are different, NC tries to spell it out. In places where CC is prohibited by statute, ie: schools, state court property, rest stops on highway, it is permitted to temporarily store your firearm in a locked metal box in a lock vehicle and not...

    Hi-Point... REALLY?
