    My Relic

    My battalion commander dug it out of the berm after I was med-evac'd. He smuggled it back stateside for me. I tend to stick the thing in odd places, then am pleasantly surprised when I see it again. It's a great reminder of just how fortunate I really am.

    My Relic

    Every time I see that thing I think about how lucky I am to be alive. It makes me think about how well I have done, given how little control I have over life.

    My Relic

    That's the propellant section of the RPG that took my leg off. The explosive end was on the left, the fins were on the right.

    I was digging around and found this. Amazing how something so small has had so much impact on my life.

    Rifle Scopes Rings: Leupold Mk4 Vs. Badger Ordnance?

    I have used both. If you can get Leupold for $50 less, go that route.

    Repair Shipping

    This isn't a 'factory' rifle. I think there was an issue with the reamer. 175 SMK is only 2.724 OAL when touching the lands.

    Repair Shipping

    I'm curious what is standard practice when sending a rifle back in to its builder to correct a production problem. Should the builder cover freight to them, or is that not how it is done?

    Upgrade ?'s: Dillon presses and drill press trimmers?

    Just need the plates, not whole case feeders. The ergonomics of the bullet tray are very nice.

    My McMillan build... Gone wrong

    After selling an Hornady Ammo Plant here, I learned UPS can break ANYTHING. They cracked the frame on it.

    Upgrade ?'s: Dillon presses and drill press trimmers?

    I would recommend the strong mount, bullet tray, and the roller handle for the 650.

    Best place to buy a Dillon 550b?

    Yes, if you want a discount. Otherwise, the price on their site is what you pay.

    Measurement question - dillon 550b

    I bought mine without a strong mount. Within a month I bought one. The press is cats meow with a bullet tray and brass bin.

    Winchester large rifle magnum primers?

    This is a group from my 300 using H1000 with Win Large Magnum primers. I can't object to their quality.

    Question for Seasoned Guitar Players

    Definitely like the Tele. Have owned an SRV Strat and a Gibson Custom '68 reissue. Bothe were amazing, but something about the profile of the Tele feels right in my hands.

    New GA Precision M40A5 short throat!?

    I had the same issue with my rifle when I got it. Accuracy doesn't seem to suffer, so I left well enough alone.
