    CED M2 Questions

    Re: CED M2 Questions I shoot where there is no 110 power but my truck is always available. Can I take power from my truck battery? DO NOT CONNECT THE IR TOPS DIRECTLY TO A 12 VOLT VEHICLE BATTERY. The battery's high current output will fry the circuitry and void your warrantee. The IR...

    Re: Reducing costs for 308 Powder valley sells 8 lbs of Varget for $135 plus shipping and hazmat, so $170 shipped, maybe buy some primers also to offset the hazmat fee.

    Dillon 650 and Varget

    I've been using TAC lately to load .223 and the Dillon 650s powder thrower is dead on to the tenth of a grain almost every time. What kind of variability should I expect with Varget?

    DIY custom Thumler upgrade

    Re: DIY custom Thumler upgrade Mr. Thumler told me they are going to start putting those star clips on the sides of the black rubber rollers on the drive shaft to prevent them moving over. The idler shaft already has them.

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials I had excellent results with the stainless media. I had some .223 cases that were tumbled in corncob for about 8 hours with Dillon polish. They looked pretty good and didn't think the SS media would make them much better. I was wrong, the water that...

    VERY disappointing results .223 w/TAC & 77 SMK's

    Re: VERY disappointing results .223 w/TAC & 77 SMK 24.0 is the max load for TAC in the Sierra manual, sounds like most accurate load would be below 24.0.
