Fuck yea it's doubtful. I gots no stars and planets to guide my idle speculations. Just spit ballin' knowin' how those sneaky Chicoms operate, and how resource poor they are with a full bore industrial economy. Not that much different than a resource poor Japan striking their neighbors to seize their oil and rubber.

I don't think anyone has a good idea about what the Chicoms will do, and they now have the largest Navy in the world that is pretty advanced with phased array radars and hypersonic ship killing missiles. Not only are they our most likely adversary, they can already beat us on paper, and as I look around at our Navy I don't see any Halsey's or Nimitz's to pull some sort of masterful strategy. We're breeding risk averse boy captains who get fired at the drop of a hat.

I don't think it was a bore constriction issue, you'd have to put some serious ooga booga on that sumbitch to constrict the bore diameter enough to start throwing shots on one of those RRA Varmint barrels.

This one is a bit of an interesting one but it sounds like it's remedied so no harm no foul.

Hungary,Romania,Poland,Slovakia get into the act would make it wild. Ukraine would be gone. i'm sure those are aware and interested?

@SNB you cunts tried to orchestrate a genocide, now you are mad about it backfiring.
Truly hope you at some point travel back to your country and get press ganged and die in one of the many meaningless PR stunts that your "heroes" are forced to sacrifice their lives for.
Your losses most likely number more than a million, and your great leader still sends people to their death for useless propaganda purposes, just to keep the gravy train rolling.
Just look at how you've lost thousands in utterly useless skirmishes into Kursk after losing it, or the recent adventures in Toretsk.
I really wonder if you are a barking chihuahua in Poland or some other country talking a big game, but hiding from mobilization, or if you are a paid propaganda agent.
No matter, you are a cunt, and you gleefully cheer on the wholesale slaughter of your own countryman

But but but, they are winning according to him. They are not retreating. They are advancing in the opposite direction.

i hope this doesn't happen. enough have died.
but if ukraine won't agree to peace without concessions on territory that russians have captured, i guess putin's only choice is to capture territory he never wanted so he can use that for negotiations.

"According to US officials cited by CNN"
Hmmm

I scored some r16

have no dog in this fight but have always believed that the companies that make suppressors are complicit in the NFA BS. in my limited knowledge,i see no reason that these are priced so high ie despite the gov rip off. there is no real open competition in the biz. if it was opened up like guns,ammo,scopes,mags competition would seem to be increased as a guy could have tried several,decided and posted what works best for him. when you have 4-500$s in something,dumping it when it is a POS is tough as is admitting it. look at scope numbers,prices and resulting wide open everywhere competition.

Doesn't matter as how that is not how the swage it works.
The swage-it works on the up stroke and replaces the primer seating assembly.
So when you would normally seating a primer you are swaging.
That is why Dillion does not warranty the shell plate because it can put a lot of extra stress on the plate

Yep this makes sense, I didnt think about it enough before posting. Have you had any issue using a it on the 650?

Threadcutter308 said:

(re; 650 & 750) Swaging happens at the bottom of the stroke, not the top. The top of the stroke is where a hold down die would help. Nothing you can do as far as supporting the case at the bottom of the stroke.

Yeah, I haven't had enough coffee this morning. Too much other crap going on, and I wasn't thinking clearly about this.

fedupflyer said:

Dude, you really need to lay off the cherry crayons.

The OP has a 650 and it works opposite of the 1050.
Putting a die above the swage-it has ZERO effect.
Again, the swage-it replaces the primer seating assembly and works on the up stroke.

Well, I just admitted I was mistaken above. As for the cherry crayons comment, you might want to lay off the keyboard commando attitude before it gets you in trouble.

This makes more sense now not sure what i was thinking. But yes the shell plate will be in its lowest position when using the swage it so there is no way to support the shell plate. My question did not have enough thought behind how it actually preforms the function.

Ahhh...I must not have had enough coffee this morning. I see what @fedupflyer is saying now. Been spending too much time on my CP2K, and not on my 750 lately.

Bummer. I wouldn't mind having a banish or two. Not anymore.

California is limited to what we can buy without getting the diddy treatment, but I do have a G19.5 MOS with an Aimpoint Acro P2, Radian Ramjet w/ Afterburner, DPM spring and Apex Trigger that absolutely hammers. Here's a few trips this past few weekends and just this last weekend I was tired of shooting targets limited at ~1 round per second so I just decided to shoot a face sized rock at 50 yards and I actually remembered to turn the brightness down which makes it easier to shoot precise. Typically I'll just have the dot swipe the target and press the trigger for an acceptable hit.

Both will be so hollowed out by the end of this it wouldn’t surprise me if China makes a resource grab into Russia and we were fighting the Chicoms alongside the Russians on Russian soil.

Didn’t Nostradamus predict something like this?

Click to expand...

doubtful but interesting speculation. China and Russia have never really been buds since Mao broke with Stalin. they have had some dust ups around the Ussuri river. IMHO 1 of the dozens of reason Trump should stop and remove everything in or going to Ukraine. normalizing with Russia would be a potential disruption for China,which is the real enemy. as we all know,Ukraine is hole the MIC and dems want to fill up with our $s.
the Taiwan issue could well turn into a BFD and China having an unsecured west border could only be a good thing.

And there are plenty of Machine gun collectors who will go bankrupt if the NFA were to be repealed. None of them are going to support even a revocation of the Hughes Amendment. Because then their $28,000 AR-15 is going to be worth about $600.

So don't think those who 'have' are on the side of those who 'want!'

fedupflyer said:

Well yeah because the 1050 swage works completely different than the 650.
The 1050 has a hold down die base you are squeezing base of the case between the swager and the hold down die.
The 650 swage-it has zero support other than the case plate. You are putting all the stress on the plate.

If you are loading rifle, this is the biggest reason to buy a 1050 over the 650.

Click to expand...

I thought the OP's questions was whether he could run an hold down die, above the priming/swage-it station? In which case, it would have the same effect as the 1100/CP2K set up. Or am I misunderstanding the OP's question?

"When you use the swage it on your 650 do you run a die above it.?"

Honestly, I see no reason not to run a hold down die over the swage-it, and it's likely a good idea to do so. I'm surprised (well, actually not) that Dillon's response is "You'll void the warranty". Kinda tells you what they care about (selling more presses or enabling customers to use their presses with after market solutions). But then again, they also say running anything other than their POS automation add-on, will void the warranty....after people waited more than 3 years for them to buy Ammobot, figure out it wouldn't work the way they wanted, and then totally redesign it (and it's still not a very good design). But I digress...

All things equal DLC is a superior coating for actions and bolts. It is very hard, low coefficient of friction, and resistance to abrasion. However the surface finish of the substrate prior to coating is a very important factor to consider in the end result.
