"Feel", better termed "tactile judgement", is an acquired skill. What it, "has to do with it", is uniformly "seating" the anvil, thus, uniform ignition. RG

It needs (wants?) a Burris Mini 4-12, AO!:p RG

George, I've got all the prints - just cannot get the new computer to co-operate with sharing the scanned images . . .:( Pretty much the same, except, 0.oo7" up in the tapered portion!! :eek: RG

Food for thought . . . There - George came through!:cool::DRG

This is all just a bunch of crap, Al . . . When you're finished, I'll trade ya a few of the 47gr .22 bullets and, "save you from yourself." Then, I'll set it before a BIG jigger of BLACK JUICE, and consider potential improvements . . . following a few sips, perhaps BIG MIKE will approve. :p RG

I must, "be dummer than a rock" . . . I have used nothing but Thummler's & wide-mouth (1 gallon) "pickle jars" since I began making bullets some thirty years ago, sans any modification of the jars - just fill them 3/4 full. For some applications, I use tin coffee cans, which also, "never wear...

NO e-mail service for several days now . . . Computers crashed here, and still bailing out - you'll have to either call (515-438-4010), or keep trying the e-mail.:o Just now got a computer back on-line, and they buggared up the e-mail account stuff - I'll have to give up and get help again.:pRG

CONGRATULATIONS, Dave!! Congratulations, Dave! :eek::cool:RG

The video appears to show both locking and primary extraction cams - time will tell.:eek::confused: RG

Slight criticism(s) . . . Wow, an OLD thread resurrected!!:eek: The Hunter barrel should feature a 1.250"shank diameter!;) I still shoot free recoil with Hunter & VfS rifles . . . it's, as always, a matter of what works for us. Regrading felt recoil: too long a pull length is a bad...

Here are some pics of mine, hole spacing idealized for .30 Cal., 1.080" length: plate is 5&1/4"x11"x1/2" thick; hole depth/diameter 0.360"x11/32nds (0.3438). Had them made by late uncle about 25 years ago. P.S. Trays hold 100 jackets, the off-set pattern used was easier to fit, and makes for...

Back to Jim! Perhaps Jim still has enough mind remaining to fix my rail-gun, but not enough to bill me for the work?!?:p;) Regarding the new knee, do your rehab, Jim and it should be GREAT . . .Merry Christmas!!:DRG

What's that BIG thing sticking out the side - a speed adjust lever?!!?:p As usual, well done, Al. ;) I'm with Chet - what makes it stop?!? :confused: RG

Yes. I'll repeat, my comment from the other post: "Extremely Disappointing news.":(RG

Extremely Disappointing news . . . :(RG

Al, you're, "giving away all of the secrets"!!:p Yes, sectioning cored jackets and finished bullets can provide useful insight!;) RG

Wow, new PRECISION RIFLEMAN editor, Whitney Morman and Wilcox Printing teamed up to produce the BEST, most professional issue of PRECISION RIFLEMAN magazine since its inception!!:cool: I am looking forward to more and better as Whitney grows more familiar with editing/publishing - YOU GO, GIRL...

I believe that the Juenkie device simply measures exterior geometry/geography. Via blind testing, guinea pigs, who owned Juenke devices, were absolutely unable to sort bullets according to wall thickness, and/or/ variation thereof.:eek: Twenty plus years ago, I sent samples of bullets...

NO, a 7 ogive on the 1.00" jacket, presuming an 0.0625" me'plat (knock-out pin) will have a LONG bearing/shank surface - about 0.075-0.080" longer than a 1.00" based ten ogive, and 0.06-0.070" longer than a 0.925" based 7 ogive - this consumes a LOT of valuable case capacity!:eek: The only...

If/when you order/acquire a set of thirty Cal. dies, do not expect to make usable bullets with the combination of a ten caliber tangent ogive point-die and 0.925" long jackets!:eek:;) The ten ogive configuration dictates using 1.00"> jacket: a shorter jacket will not provide enough shank - even...
