That's heavy! LOL

LOL, I didn't realize how my statement could come across. It wasn't intended to sound like a correction, rather like joking around or teasing :D I actually like the idea of not resting the gun on the scope, it makes perfect sense to me! I am however very surprised that they advertise it like...

I wouldn't be too harsh on people since Pelican themselves advertise it that way sometimes...

Lol, I wish my SASS was as light as your g2 recon! I'm extremely happy with it! I just worked up the FGMM 175 grain clone load I found on here and she is extremely happy with them :D Now I just have to work on me and my accuracy ;)

If only... having a folding stock would save SO much space!

Something about the idea of putting wax on the inside of the casing worries me... and I don't know why... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk

I like that 2 layer idea! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk

How much faster could it be? Stainless media just falls right out and I would wind up double checking the casings by hand as I pulled them out of the media separator... so for me it would wind up taking longer :S

I hand pick and dump the casings with a single tap on the side of the tumbler, then I drop them into a bowl overflowing with running water... once I am done separating the casings I dump and refill the water a few times in the bowl while stirring the casings around to fully rinse them... then I...

So it worked. Threaded the whole way in now the rifle won't even eject the spent casing... about 3 1/4 turns out is perfect... locks back but doesn't eat up the casings any more :D I'm glad this worked so well actually! I was nervous when I tried it last week and it locked back fully closed.

How much does the drag bag bounce around inside though? That doesn't seem like a very secure option. That's the thought on my end... grab and go and don't need to worry about it lol

I don't know to be honest, but the adjustment screw went in what I thought was the whole way... but fully closed, the rifle still cycles and locks back on empty mag. The directions did mention a tap, but I ignored it lol. Contacted JP and they said that it was most likely the problem, that the...

I think in the long run mine will be used as storage and transport... if I get a drag bag that might convince me to leave the case at home when going shooting, but I think if I get a smaller case and separate the upper and lower I can keep it small enough to be manageable for easy transport and...

So quick update, the JP gas block fully closed still allowed my slider to lock back on empty... I caller JP and apparently I missed the part where you have to run a tap through the adjustment screw hole and into the gas tube... you have to cut threads into the tube so the screw can get past it...

That was probably it! Not a bad idea. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk

Yup, And deburrrd That's what I wound up doing... I'm still not sure exactly HOW I messed it up... but I figured out what was wrong lol. I had the die body set too low. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk

Great advice guys! I really appreciate the ideas, I'll have to give it a shot! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk

It was fired brass, and I'm pretty sure I just set the crimp too low... in any case, I am new to reloading, so I have much to learn and little to tell so far lol I did just that... but I saved the powder lol. Also, I wasn't really loading at 3 am... I got the press that evening and was just...
