Yep that is the one I just ordered. I have the Pro2 case trimmer that has the universal case holder and it works great. Amazing how much faster than turning an adjustment to hold the case.

Well the new Lee is not working well for me at all. I used to do all my priming on the press and had little problem until the thing just died. I then went with the new Lee hand primer and have had nothing but problems. I get double primer feeds the lop lifts and primers get under it and dump...

Who makes a good trouble free reliable hand primer. The one I have now is a pita. thanks for the help

Thanks. I bought two of the new quick trims the one that goes in the press and has the vertical cutter. The first was obviously bad the second I can't get it to cut accurately. I'm sending both back. Anyway I think I may go with the RCBS pro2 trimmer with the three way cutter. I have...

I have used the Lee trimmer you put in your drill and use the hand held cutter to trim to length. So far that works the best but I have over 1k pieces to trim and it takes a while plus the holder sometimes lets go and it's a pain. I bought two of the new quick trim cutters and dies, can't get...

yep according to that they are Taiwan. I read it all and to tell you the truth the implications scare the hell out of me.

I found a site that had a bunch of head stamp locations.. One place had two TA head stamp one said taiwan and the other was tel aviv but I couldn't find a TAA listing. Now the question is will the TAA and the LC load exactly the same and shoot the same? Do both have the same internal volume?

I just got a bunch of 223 brass mostly LC. There are a number of brass mixed in with the headstamp of TAA 09 along with the nato marking. Does anyone know who makes the TAA 09 brass? And if so what differences in this brass is there compared to the LC brass? I have them separated now but...

Anyone with exp with this brass? Just wondering how they hold up for reloading. I am using med loads and was concerned about short life. thanks

Well after all the pondering I decided on the Savage 11-111. I had in mind what I was looking for but couldn't fine one. Believe this or not Cabelas had a Savage they called a Cabelas exclusive. I think they may still have them. They call it the Prairie Dog. If interested you can get the...

Thanks just bought a bunch to try the accuracy in my rifles. They sure shoot straight. I was wondering about the expansion on the little critters.

I was just wondering how the 69 grain .22 Matchking is for prairie dog hunting and maybe some hog hunting. Anyone try these one either one? thanks

First time I had the new rifle out. She sure does shoot. Not sure about 500 yards though.LOL Anyway well under moa using three different loads. Doesn't seem to be very particular as to what she eats. I think I'll just keep her the way she is. Not sure anything will make er shoot much...

I have a S&W sport. I want to mount a 44mm 1" scope on it. What height mounts do I need to get high enough so that the front sight won't interfere with the sight picture? Also if you can suggest a "reasonably" priced mount that would be great.
