      MEC reloader

      I think you all have made my decision pretty easy for me and I'll probably be staying a non-reloader for now. With 2 young kids and a demanding career, I don't have much spare time anyway. It doesn't sound like the 'extras' offered are worth much anyway. Thanks for all of the input and...

      MEC reloader

      Thanks for the input 4651feeder! I have a pic of the 9000 and it is manual - no hydraulics or electric. I do have some friends that reload and I'm sure they wouldn't mind helping me learn. I think they are both the same gauge, but am still waiting to get a pick of the 600jr. I get all of the...

      MEC reloader

      hmm, I hadn't thought about that. You bring up a very valid point, and it's probably the same reason it's offered for trade! Thanks for the input!

      MEC reloader

      I've been offered a trade for 2 MEC reloaders and I don't know much about reloading. One is a 9000 and the other is a 600jr. I do shoot a ton of 12ga, so I am entertaining the trade and becoming a reloader, I just don't know if these are good units or not, or what a guestimate value would be...

      Indoor Range Bullet Trap Question

      Thanks! I would have never guess just 6 - 10 inches of sand. I guess I'm used to Safety Factors and overkill all the time that I just would have guessed that to be insufficient. Maybe some playground type sand that isn't so dusty will work. I'll look into the nylon or poly - thanks for the...

      Indoor Range Bullet Trap Question

      I've heard tire chips from other sources as well. maybe just a big ol pile with an AR plate behind it? I guess I forgot to mention 9' ceilings - so that brings up my concern on how big the pile will be and how it will move toward the shooter from the wall. maybe I can get a sort of netting to...

      Indoor Range Bullet Trap Question

      I'm not sure if this is where this thread needs to be or not, but I would like to find someone (or a company) in Indiana that would have info on what Indoor Gun Ranges use for bullet traps. Of course I've googled this and have found various items, but I think i have a little different range...

      Bear sightings in Scott County

      I've heard of feral hog sightings in Scott Co. but not bear.. I sure would hope someone could tell the two apart.

      Anyone know of any safes on sale?

      I just got a 16 gun Stack-On at Bass Pro for $169 during the holidays. They may have more specials running...

      Southern Indiana FFL's

      Two Brothers in New Albany does them for $15 as well. I have also heard that Falls City is $15, and they are in Clarksville.

      I don't know if anyone has said this one yet, but Iver Johnson also makes a 'replica' M1.

      Heated discussion with the significant other about guns

      It sounds to me like your wife is a 'spite shopper'....i have one of those as well, and it makes buying a new gun twice as expensive. She always wants to know how much the gun costs, and therefore she gets to spend that much on whatever she wants. Sometimes this comes in handy when roles are...

      best gun range in southern Indiana?

      Safe upstairs?

      As far as figuring out what the floor can hold, you will need to know a few things: Joist size, joist spacing (centers), joist span (from bearing to bearing) Currently, the typical residential floor load is designed for 55psf, but I don't know what it was when your house was built, much less...
