    Not such a Bad Day.

    Bench rest baptism Francis, you are one of a kind. You, indeed, were guilty of infecting me. Just not in the delivery room. In fact, I took the dare to go to Raton partialy because you had mentioned you might be there helping. Your absence goaded me into the Michigan trip. And I regret...

    Not such a Bad Day.

    Turmoil Jim took me under his wing in Raton several years ago. Mike Ratigan was a "God Send" at the BR School. I was bitten, but detoured through Dr. offices and hospitals since. I allowed my membership to lapse in the meantime, but have not lost my zeal for accuracy. Will renew membership...

    WD 40 -- Any Uses?

    Rust Prevention (preventative vs preventive.....irregardless is the one that bugs me). "Rustprufe" works like a charm. Body salts (as in fingers) won't penetrate. Hard to find these days. This is my preference for storage of firearms. I use WD40 almost interchangeably with LPS1. LPS2 is...

    Measuring concentricity

    Rotational effects Al, recalled the Vaughn writing after I posted, but decided to let it go. Never meant to imply that my thoughts were original. Started reading it again last night, for the umpteenth time. Sometime ago, I went after the Mann stuff, but it was laborious.....kinda like...

    Measuring concentricity

    Concentricity vs accuracy. Not sure I can clarify or confuse this. But, in another life, I balanced large steam turbine rotors and generator fields, that weighed tons. One of the primary considerations contributing to vibration in 3600 rpm (or any rpm, for that matter) is the difference in...

    Need help!

    Vinny Most brands are good quality. I just happen to use RCBS. The Lee dies get a lot of good press though. Main thing is to be certain you use a "Taper Crimp" die, not a roll crimp, as the semiauto cases headspace on the case mouth. Crimp just enough to hold the bullet in place under...
