   Very true. Friendly fire doesn't have a check list.

"Incoming rounds have the right of way".

The Hornady One-Shot is the best lube I've run across. Works well in the die, no primer or powder fouling issues to worry about. Not necessary to clean after sizing,; you can if you want to. Can't get much easier unless someone else does it for you.

   Yep! Sometimes called Ole Stick Face

My Garmin GPS warns of  traffic cameras.  Simplest solution would be to just stop at the red light.

This program is a "feel good " program dreamed up by our VA, to get he monkey off their back due to the lengthy wait times for an appointment. It's as useless as tits on a boar hog. By the time you jump thru all the qualifying hoops, you're dead in the water. I have a card my self, does fairly well to pick your teeth with.

I use Hornady One Shot spray lube. Doesn't have to be wiped off. Doesn't harm powder or primers.

   Well, a diet coke, that's it. Didn't go to buy, just wanted to see the venue. Present day budget doesn't allow for more guns, etc.  Be assured, tho, there were no shortages of guns. Down side, physically, I just wasn't able to cover the entire thing. Prices seemed to be "gun show prices". I looked at mostly reloading prices, which were a bit higher than normal. Thought I might pick up some Vh N140, but found none. Always go to Reloaders Bench, Mt. Juilet for that anyway. Greg, you have got to get out there, you'll be like a kid in a toy store. FWIW, if anyone goes anytime soon, DO NOT go the route on Mapquest or GPS. There is a bridge out in East Tulsa that has traffic royally screwed up. NO marked detours at all. I would love to have a few moments with whoever was in charge of that. We came back thru hwy 75 South to I-40, and had no problem. Would suggest going in the same way. If you think Nashville is bad ( and it is ), Tulsa is much worse, traffic/street wise. Aside from that, we had a great trip. Weather was perfect, no road issues, other than the previous stated. Next show is in Nov. I believe. Tired, but glad to be back.  Think I'm getting too old for this stuff, LOL.

 Pics not allowed, but there are some good ones on Wannamachers website.

Final bump update.  Did'nt feel well enough to make the Sat. show. Worn out from trip.. Did make it today. This place is huge. Only went thru about 40% of it, til I was tired out. Much better than our local shows. Didn't see any siding, gutters, flea mkt stuff ( proves it can be done ), LOL. Heading home tomorrow. You need to see this show if you can make it, awesome.

  Bump, update. Leaving tomorrow am for the Tulsa show, at last. Seems like it's been a year since I planned it, LOL. May have to mortgage the house, contents, truck, boat, etc. when I get back, but apparently, I'm only going to live once, so................

Well, that would work for the idea you have, but 6 lbs isn't much capacity for tumbling. Maybe enough for what you're planning on doing.  I have a Thumlers Tumbler that has a 15 lb. capacity, but quite a bit more expensive than the Harbor Freight model. $58 buck compared to $189. Good luck with your project, fun thing to do.

With its' floor space, location ( right off I-40 ), away from downtown traffic, it has the "potential" to be a good gun show. Now, what Goodman does with it is another matter. There's also the RK Shows as well.  Can't forget the rental costs, etc of using the Center. Hope this all works out & we can finally have a decent show in the area. At least we can get away from Megan Barry & Liberalville.

I go with the factory recommendation. Read somewhere ( don't remember), from experts in the field, that, that was the way to go. Haven't had any issues doing so.

   Same here. No costs. Covered under Comprehensive.

     Years ago I had a similar problem with Firestone on my F-150. Long story short, they were out of round. Only way to fix that was to grind off material until they evened out. Naturally by then, not much tread left. Pulled them off & replaced them with something other than Firestone. Had another issue with Firestone on a T-bird years later. These were orig. equip. tires.  Never have another one. Have Kelley tires on my current truck. They run, drive, quiet, great. on so good in slick fields. Thinking my next set will be either Goodyear Wrangler or Toyo.

 Same here. Only way to go, JMHO

 Same here. I don't think you can save much by reloading, especially if you have to start from scratch & figure in the costs of equipment. I just like to know what is actually in the round, and you can get better accuracy if you experiment with different components with a particular gun. Not to mention the fun/satisfaction factor, which is high on the list for me.

 Yep, be glad to have it in the Lebanon area. I'm only 10 mi. No. of Lebanon city limits on 231.

   Same here Hozzie. That's all you need to do. Doesn't contaminate primers or powders either.

Had to do it in Army training. Haven't had the need since. It can be done with time & patience.

 I upgraded my 8.1 to 10. I can't see much difference in the two. Don't really like either. Takes a bit of getting used to. Have finally gotten used to the dang thing. I liked XP better.

I used the see-thru mounts and also the swing over mounts for years on a Rem 742 BDL 30-06. Also on a Win. Mod 70 in .270.  Never had an issue. Doesn't mean it can't happen, like anything else. Just my own personal exp. from years ago.

   I agree the shipping could be cheaper, over the top actually. Other than that, no issues.

Comms absolutely right. The Feds had every opportunity to serve a warrant in town. They chose not to do so. THey wanted to make a statement, "We're in charge & don't you ever forget it". That's what they did. Koresh was not saint, but he was made the scapegoat. Same situation at Ruby Ridge with Randy Weaver & family. Bunch of jack booted thugs.
