I mentioned that I would post the arrangements for Art. There will be no formal service but there will be an open house on the 24th between 2 and 6 pm. Please do not send any flowers or donations. The location is 6410 Approach Rd in Sarasota, FL. I would encourage any friends in the area to come...

I am very sad to inform you that the "Iron Man of Benchrest", Art Kelley passed away last night. As most of you know that compete in Benchrest, Art Kelley has been a figure that has inspired many of us when times were, by our perspective, tough. Art has suffered from MS for over 20 years and yet...

When you turn the neck down to the shoulder (normal method), the potential donut is moved to that low point. Since we don't seat bullets that far down into the neck (and we throw away the brass on a frequent basis) it never comes into play. When you stop cutting the neck at a higher point the...

Sorry for your loss my friend. I went through that 3 years ago so I know how you feel. It sure has been tough with so many family members and friends leaving us lately. Our prayers are with you. Larry Costa

Vern, I like the RCBS and have two that I keep in the motorhome. You can run it from a small 12 volt gell cell battery like Chris Harris (runs the unit all day). He took it to France for the World Championship and he would use it for a couple of days without charging. On the last day I used it...

Thanks to all. I will make sure that the first thing we do is gun safety...especialy for the father (inside joke). I hope, and will take the time to insure, that he will become a responsible gun user and not a yahoo. I will look into all the recommendations given on equipment and the CMP/NRA...

Well that was fast. Thanks guys! Hope I can hook one to become a benchrest shooter in time. Larry
