I got a Contixo F35 for Christmas. It is not my first drone, but the first that I still own after flying it for a few hours! Amazon has them for less than $300 with one battery and $329 with two. Get the two battery deal...Pretty good range, decent daytime camera, and GPS to bring it back in...

Just watched Joe's speech on Breitbart. These people seemingly are declaring war on conservatives/MAGA supporters. Everything he called out was what the Dems are doing to the country. The Dem supporters are woefully ignorant and believe anything these morons tell them, as long as the free...

Follow up on my previous post, tablet gets stuck on the cloudflare page and refuses to load despite my multiple reloading attempts. Just for grins I tried my Galaxy S21 running Firefox on TMO 5G and got in fairly quick. I suppose my tablet is just too old. IDK. I do appreciate what is going...

I read the forums using my Galaxy Tab 8, 4g, android 7.1.1 and Firefox 89.1.1 (?) (google search engine). I constantly get the 525 no load error and the browser check usually goes on and on. Most times I just give up. I am posting this on a Win10 laptop running Firefox 90.0.2 (duckduck go...

Update on the issue: The gun has been sent to Glock for repair (12/14/20). I called them to confirm that it had arrived and what lead to them getting it. The tech I spoke with was very helpful and told me that I would probably not get the gun back before Christmas (no worries). During our...

I have decided that changing over to the RCBS lockout die is a must do for progressive pistol reloading, problem is there seem to be none available anywhere. The powder cop die is good but it is too easy to be distracted when loading mass quantities and manually adding brass and bullets. I...

Honestly couldn't say if it sounded different, but it felt different! I put a light crimp with the Lee factory crimp die. Not tight but tight enough to keep the bullet in place.

Again, thanks for the replies. That's why I posted here, to get a spectrum of opinions. My first thoughts when it happened, besides are my fingers still attached, were wtf went wrong? Did I have an overcharge or out of battery fire? I called my local guru/mentor and his first impression was...

Thanks for the replies. Double charge was my thoughts as well. I have loaded thousands of 9mm on the Hornady progressive with no problems, till now. That load is my pet load as it just makes power factor and shoot pretty easy. I must have gotten careless on this one. I use the Hornady powder cop...

Took a trip to the range with the wife today and had a bit of a mishap. I fired about 7 or 8 rounds of 9mm reloads (berrys 147gr plated over 3.2gr titegroup with cci500 primers) and BOOM! Blew the mag out, cracked the frame, and my trigger finger hurt like hell! When I regained my composure, I...

Roll Tide, from Shelby county!

Appreciate the replies guys. I even sent an email to IMI to see if I could get any response, nothing. I do understand that just pulling a cartridge apart will not reveal some mystical magic knowledge, but you have to start somewhere when trying to reproduce a load and that somewhere is...

I have searched around and have not found any data listed for this round. It works really good in my .308 gas gun (sun devil(?) upper and lower with Fulton bcg and Criterion 20" stainless hbar). I currently shoot a hand load with 175 Nosler custom comps over 44gr of Varget (same as my bolt gun...

Thanks for posting those video links. I think we all are aware of the "mis-speaks" that the media makes and you just proved the point very well. I read on Brietbart this morning that POTUS has condemned many groups, including the Proud Boys, effectively giving in to the Dems and media. Only...

I had the opportunity to have the TV on in the office for much of the day (Fox) and listened to the blah blah bullshit over the debate performance and all the other stuff surrounding this election. John Roberts of Fox is a (insert adjective here)! Then just for shits and grins I decided to...
