      Selling an SR1911

      That sounds like a fair trade. Congrats.

      Les Baer, Ed Born, Wilson Combat or other

      I haven’t spent enough time with my Baer to form a good opinion. But it is tight and very accurate. My Dad liked it better then my Wilson. I would put Nighthawk at the top of the heap. Baer is the best overall value. Wilson is pretty much a high end production line at this point, but...

      Old eyes issue

      Progressive Bi-focals, astigmatism and 50 years old. I feel ya! Since Cedartop and I last trained together I have also been diagnosed with a type of epilepsy so I take $$$ medication that effectively slows down my brain. So front sight focus and how quickly my eyes refocus is greatly...

      Should I or Shouldn't I

      I looked into threading my 77/22. For about $75 more I could just buy a savage bolt gun and move on with life.

      Small Pistol Primer .45 brass is annoying!

      Your wife lets you anywhere near the kitchen table with brass? one time I took mine out of the wet tumbler and laid them on towels in front of the fireplace. Cats kicked it all over the family room and I caught hell for a week.

      Small Pistol Primer .45 brass is annoying!

      I can load it easy enough. It just messes up the rhythm on the progressive because there isn’t an easy way to get it all separated.

      Small Pistol Primer .45 brass is annoying!

      Not mad. Not complaining. But dang does that stuff mess up your groove while reloading. Thanks for letting me vent this morning.

      Single Stage/Turret/Progressive

      It could happen. Knock on wood it hasn’t happened to me yet. But keep in mind you have to flip the stations forward to make room for a new case, and powder running all over the press is a pretty good indication of a double charge. My recommendation would be to mount a light so you see into...

      Single Stage/Turret/Progressive

      If my reloading setup blew away today and I had to replace with new, I would buy a Dillon 550 and a Rock Chucker. The 550 will do everything you need outside of a fully automated machine. Having a single stage bolted to the bench is just to darn handy.

      Small Pistol Primers in .45acp Experience?

      If I were to ever acquire a significant amount of SPP .45 brass, I wouldn’t hesitate to reload it. I just figured I would use magnum SPP. I accidentally picked up a couple thousand Mag SPP primers a couple of years ago and need to use them for something.
