Re: Ice Storm 2022
Started snowing about 30 minutes ago on the N side of FTW. Big, fluffy flakes. We have a friend visiting from South Africa that has never seen snow, except in pictures. Just flew in yesterday. Talk about good timing. He's got a grin from ear to ear. We went out for a few minutes to get some picture...

Re: Scam artists selling Reloading supplies
PayPal is down 25% in the markets today - guess they had to process a lot of scam-refunds because they couldn't be bothered to check.

Re: Scam artists selling Reloading supplies
A dead giveaway on these scam sites is: They want a Paypal for "Friends and family" - that way you can't dispute the charges.

Re: My opinion - an obvious scam allowed by Face Book !
However, I do NOT buy anything where the shipping costs more than the item price, or even a large fraction of the item price. Great tip. As for me, I ordered some lobster via a FB ad - the price was good, but not so good as to make me suspicious (regardless, I did check and they had a long-standing...

Yep. Still, better than never. Who knows, the competition might even prod the current makers to get their butts moving and/or lower prices before next year.

Re: New ammo plant to open near Texarkana
No idea, but I would doubt it. Probably under their own brand to wholesale and/or contracting out to the big brands.
Either way, it should loosen up primer availability if they can get this going.

Re: Hole gauges

Hole gauges
I was looking into getting pin gauges to measure various holes eg. each chamber in a revolver cylinder to calculate the correct sizing for cast bullets - but pin gauges are a bit of a pain to assemble one-by-one from MSC or whomever and I happy discovered 'Small Hole Gauges' instead: https://i.imgur...
