    Depending on the humidity it might gain or lose some moisture but, it won`t spoil if that`s what you`re afraid of..

    we need a humor forum.....until then

    A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!" The priest said, "Here...

    In a Tottenham church, Sunday morning, a Priest said, "Anyone with 'special needs' who wants to be prayed over, please come forward to the front of the altar." With that, Leroy got in line and when it was his turn, the Priest asked, "Leroy, what do you want me to pray about for you?" Leroy...

    Case sizing help please.

    I`ve found useing a std RCBS, Redding, etc sizer with expander ball I get the same runout troubles the OP found. I now decap with a universal decapper, FL size with the expander removed, and then re-install the expander stem leaving it high in the die and a hair loose and then run it in the case...

    I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone. I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there. I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I...

    An elderly man is stopped by the police around 2 a.m. And is asked where he is going at this time of night. The man replies, "I am on my way to a lecture about gambling, alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body, as well as smoking and staying out late." The officer then asks...

    who makes the best reloading dies for the best accuracy?

    I`d get a die cut by the smith that chambered my barrel cut with the same reamer used to chamber said barrel.

    Frank Feldman

    A man walks out to the street and catches a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, 'Perfect timing. You're just like Frank.' Passenger: 'Who?' Cabbie: 'Frank Feldman.. He's a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab...

    Remington 700 5R

    If the twist really is 1/9" I doubt the 80gr will stabilize for you especially VDL designs. I`ve had two 223`s with 1/9" bores and they seemed to top out with bullets the length of the 69gr MK. I actually had the best luck at shorter (200 or less) ranges with the 52/53gr or less offerings. You...

    To expand or not

    Not a benchrest shooter but I do this with my brass at times when I have a die that won`t adjust and seems to want to give me trouble with runout. I found I can get almost 0 runout by sizeing without the expander ball and seating a bullet. Boat tails go in the easiest but I haven`t had any...

    Modern loads in the 7mm Mauser?

    Probably not wise to jump in this but, IIRC Kimber of Oregon rebarreled M96 Swedes to 308, 243, and 22-250 and sold them as conversions to the publice here in the states just before being bought out and moved to NY. Everything I read claimed the actions were up to the pressures and the rifles...

    powder "burning dirty"

    True BP is said to "detonate" and smokeless "burns" but the rate of time smokeless burns is controled buy the deterents added to the powder and the pressure the powder subject to. You can change the burn rate by simply altering the pressure it is subject to. Smokeless burns very fast in an...

    powder "burning dirty"

    Larry I don`t know this to be true, but I`ve been told by what I feel are reliable people the deal is "all the powder that is going to burn, burns within the 1st inch or so of the barrel". That does not mean "all" the powder is burnt, just that all the powder that can burn with the oxygen that...

    Is Brasso Safe

    I believe the "old" formula Brasso contains ammonia and shouldn`t be used on cartridge brass.
