  1. Dumped my membership there years ago after TWRA bought the place.   Before TWRA,   the place was great to use.
  2. I haven`t read all of the responses to this thread but if you have the gear to reload when ammo isn`t available,  seems that reloading would be a viable option.   No matter what the cost.
  3. I gave up on 22LR.   Went airgun and haven`t looked back.   Hope my interest has put a dent in the profits of scalpers trying to sell 22LR as a sideline.
  4. How do you know of high usage on pistol brass?   Bottleneck cases I am leary of, straightwall cases, not so much.
  5. Every range trip, I spend 30 or more minutes, just picking up cases on the pistol range. Pretty much always new. :)
  6. As the old saying goes, If you see me running, you better keep up!. :x:
  7. Thanks everyone for all of the suggestions and help! :)   I am a newbie at this subject so trying to pick up as much real life info as I can get.   Something else,   Who can recommend a good melting pot that won`t break the bank?
  8. OP,   :cheers: :drool:   Need to organize around here myself. Motivation has been low for too long.
  9. That is interesting!   I think that you might be on to something. :stir: :)
  10. Short of buying a Brinnel Hardness gage..................that doesn`t sound like a bad idea.   Rubber and plastic weights?   Can you elaborate?
  11. Hey.   Something else.   How does one distinguish the better wheel weights of old, to the newer Zinc weights?   Is it possible?
  12. I had read somewhere to be cautious on wheel weights as the newer material contained lots of Zinc.   My only interest is to find usable material for pistol rounds.   Thanks everyone, for your comments! :)
  13. I have no problem with reloads.   Was once told by someone else a long time ago, if you need to shoot a perp', make sure you are using factory rounds to avoid litigation.   Didn`t help much, at a relatives self defense trial awhile back. The individual of the topic got litigated to the poor house.   Things are going to the dogs.   ETA, I would rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6.
  14. 173rd, Are those cases fired from an M2HB?   I am guessing that they are.   What headstamp?
  15. You have more going for you with that airgun, than I ever thought about!   I would just go to 10 pumps and let `er rip! :)
  16. The first statement I think, holds some truth. The second statement, I am OK with also. I love to step out on the back porch and not have to worry about my projectile traveling too far to go where it shouldn`t. The neighbors don`t care either. You can have my share. I have had a great time using something that got the job done and didn`t get me arrested from using it in my backyard. :)
  17. LOL!   Dawg!   I had all kinds of fun in my younger days with a Daisy Powerline multi-pump rifle. I could hit anything with it and the 4X Tasco scope that I bought from K Mart.   The newer one that I bought a few years ago, was.......lets just say that......the accuracy that I expected from the rifle was, not what I knew from my older one. Was disappointed.   I lost the front sight of my old rifle in tall grass one day :wall: . The rifle went into the trash maybe a week later.
  18. The new stuff even blows my mind.   I like .177 but I hit a few targets with it and they were still stubborn. Then I found out about .25.   It has a kick to it like a real rifle and is heavier than some firearms that I am shooting.   Something else, airguns are tricky to master. If you can master them, your regular firearm shooting will improve. Mine has. :)
  19. Hey Randall,   What would you say if I could offer you a source for a 1012 grain pellet? Curious as to what the caliber may be?   That is not a typo. :cool:
  20. I gave up on .22LR, as I stated in another thread.   Don`t have any problems nowadays finding pellets and the critters that I hit, hate `em.   .25 caliber. Break barrel rifle. Scope, and "thump", to the intended target.   I`m happy. :)
  21. I gave up on it. Went airgun instead. Sold off rifle and ammo that I had.   Weird thing is, offered the ammo pre- SH prices and many turned their noses up at it. Oh well. Don`t care now.
