Oh, I would have never figured that out. Must be a slow night :pleased: Edit: Although after reviewing the usage, I could make an argument that my use of less is ok because I could say it referred to an overall "group size" which could be abstract, not definitive. For example, when looking at a picture of two football stadiums on TV, I would say one has less people in it than the other based on a simple view. Only if I had an exact count would I use fewer.

Huh? Think you may have got threads mixed up?

Wish I could get this for this price in MOA. I am betting Amazon fulfills the orders.

To trust or not to trust...why?

Chip Cain did mine. I would call him and ask. John Wells is also a vendor if you have already talked to him. -

I don't think this is 100% correct. It depends on how the trust is written. I am the only one able to sell anything on mine until I die. I am also the only one able to have the trust edited if needed. -
Just picked up a Fitbit Charge HR. I figure f I don't start getting into some type of shape (other than round) it won't matter how many guns I have. I am hoping it gives me a bit of incentive to eat better and get more exercise. Now for my search for a new M&P 9 Pro.

I really like the PPS, but I personally find the very similar sized S&W Shield much nicer to shoot. The grip also fits me better. I would try both and compare if you like the size of the PPS.

I don't fly southwest, but on Delta I can select which city to layover in.

That's quite common. Try flying from Nashville to Atlanta. It's way more expensive than a connecting. You have to be careful now not making a connection. They can prevent you from using the return or make you buy another return ticket.
-
Yep, that's crappy. Doesn't surprise me about Spirit, but Frontier is disappointing. What it doesn't say is anything about Frontiers different levels of tickets. You pay a little more and get a ticket that includes one bag. That probably remains the same, but I don't know for sure. I admit, I don't pay for luggage being a frequent flyer so I guess I am not as upset at some would be, but I would never fly Frontier again had I booked a flight before this and they changed the rules before I flew.

I don't know what it said, but I don't see this happening. Every airline has rules for weight of baggage. Stay under it, your ok, go over, you will pay. I suspect it was more about people being overweight on their luggage and having to pay for the extra weight. Some airlines give you a pound or so of grace. Others give zero. I can say unequivocally that people are ridiculous with carry ons. So if they want to crack down on that, I am ok with it.
-
This problem was created by the customers, not the airlines. People complain flights are too expensive, so airlines go ala cart to give more choice. Then people say the airlines are nickel and diming. Cheap doesn't mean value. Too many people expect first class service on a cargo ticket.

I meant to watch this. Thanks for the reminder.

I always find this viewpoint intriguing (seriously). Personally, I can't imagine limiting myself to only places I can get to by car. The world is a big place and has a lot to see/do. I personally think that if more people would see more of the world they may have a different view on a lot of things. A cruise is a great way to see multiple locations very cheaply in the grand scheme of things. Don't get me wrong, if you are happy not going, I would say don't go. But I have met very few people who once they went truly didn't like it. Yes, you can have a bad vacation for various circumstances doing anything, but I believe people are missing out on some of the most amazing places in the world if you take a stance of never flying. To each his own. That's what makes the world go round :up: .

TMF, I can relate. I am usually in business so not as bad, but even then, the guy who got on last that had to put his luggage 5 rows behind him and then expects everyone to move out of his way so he can go get his bag and be first off annoys the crap out of me. Same goes for the luggage carousel. If people could simply stand 10 ft back and only go get their bag when it gets to them, we wouldn't have people lookinglike storks trying to crane their neck out to catch a peek for that ever elusive black bag that they can't seem to figure out if it is theirs or not. And if we want biggest pet peeves, it's the family of 10 clueless, once a year flyers. whom think a 10 year old is a child for preboarding.

I travel a lot. To be honest, I can't really complain too much. I have elite status and have global entry, so I always am TSA pre-check which means I don't wait in many lines. With that said, I still get annoyed by people who can't comprehend simple instructions. As for worrying about something happening on a flight, I don't. The simply isn't worth the energy. I do watch who gets on the flight though.

I think I have one or two sets of Lee handgun dies, but they are only used in my progressive. For rifle, most of my dies are RCBS, Hornady, or Redding. As far as Turrets go, Redding is good, but they also have their runout complaints as well. If it works for you, that is all that matters.
-
Read my first post. I said then a turret will not outperform a single stage, and of the single stages, the co-ax is best. I also said they don't make a kit. He asked about a kit. I recommended an RCBS single stage kit. Not sure where the confusion was. You said your Redding will out produce anything I have. Anything I have is a co-ax press plus others. Seems pretty straightforward. Since I am in the mood, I will add, turret presses of any manufacturer have an inherent design flaw. An informed consumer understands that flaw before purchasing. If you expected perfect ammo, you shouldn't have bought a turret press to start.
-
I am glad to put my co-ax against it.
-
Your issue was the turret press, not rcbs. That is the exact reason a turret will never make as good of ammo. Some are better than others, but any turret press will flex.
-
So, if you want the absolute best single stage reloading press, the Forster Co-Ax is it. The only issue with it is is doesn't come in a kit. I know we have a lot of Lee fans on this site, but I am not one of them. Their press is ok, but for me their other components in a kit are junk (again, just my opinion). For a kit, and quality in general, I personally recommend RCBS. It will last forever and they have great service. They will all get the job done, but I don't know anyone disappointed in the RCBS set. Quality ammo is a bit subjective to each person, but for me, a Turret press cannot product the same level of quality and consistency that a single stage can. And as mentioned, in single stages, the Co-Ax is tops. Lots of good options out there these days.

They cancelled the Belgium friendly in Brussels last night as well. Haven't heard any specific threats on it, but I suspect they weren't taking any chances either. Even all of the Belgians I work with expect an attack and are a bit surprised it hasn't happened before now.

Sitting at a Customer site in Brussels as I type this. Molenbeek is a well known ####hole for Muslims in Brussels. To be fair, it would be like tracking some blacks in Cabrini Green in Chicago. Near impossible without 24/7 surveillance, and laws here are very privacy centric. I am sure it will change some, but this could just as easily happen in the US. Also just got a notice from Dept of State there is a suspicious car near the US Embassy which is less than 2 blocks from where I am. Have bomb squad checking it out. crazy times for sure.
