The post whore thread.

Ah, that sucks. Didn't you just buy an RCBS kit? I'm using Lee everything so far (except the scale I guess) and so far, its all been great! And are you solely reloading rifle? If so, weighing each charge could definitely be more beneficial, but pistol is a little overkill and I'm of the opinion that its CDO, in alphabetical order like it should be!

Rifle only for now. .223 and .308. When I get the dies and components I'll be doing .38/.357 for revolver.


See, I just can't fathom sitting there reloading hundreds of rounds of 9mm on a single stage. Bolt action and revolver on the other hand I can handle.

Ah, so you're a woman. Checkout some videos by Falia Photography: http://www.youtube.com/user/faliaphotography

She has a lot of holster reviews and shows them in various outfits.


Are you more worried about printing or the shirt riding up and revealing the pistol?

Ken, Mike and I were sitting at lunch and they asked if I had ever met her... I had no idea until they said HER that she was... Well, a she... My bad....

Thank you for the video link! I'd checked on some sites dealing with CC for women, but was a little unimpressed by the reliance of belly bands and purses.

I'm not too worried about the shirts riding up; I purposefully choose longer shrts. But they're thin material that tends to show every bump and bulge. Is that what you mean by 'printing'?

I've loaded a little over 1k .40s&w on my single stage lee press. I can do about 100rds per hour and thats paying close attention to quality control. Then again, that's with batch loading so sizing/decapping/priming are done at a different time.

Yes. "Printing" basically means the shape of the gun being seen from under a shirt or pants or whatever...

Yeah. That's how I'm rolling too...

Deprime, tumble, resize, prime.


But, since I don't have my Lee universal decapping die yet I'm tumbling first.

No, it's my bad for forgetting that people sometimes think I'm male. It's no big deal, and I hope that my presence does not put a crimp in people's conversations. I'm prior military, I like guns, eat lots of red meat, work in a male-dominated field, and swear like a sailor. I'm just shaped a bit differently and don't have a Y chromosome.

Please don't let the fact that I'm female stop you (all of you) from being yourselves. I would rather leave (though I don't want to) than to be an inhibitor to the comaraderie and fellowship of this place. I'm no feminazi.

I remembered that we had gotten a slew of women joining the site recently, but couldn't remember the names, I was thinking TheGrey was a woman, but still had to ask. Once she said she wore pant suits and cami tops, it kind of solidified it lol.

Yes, printing is either having the gun outline poking through the shirt, or being able to see the gun through a lace shirt (guys don't have this last problem). I've heard bellybands are good, but I don't think I'd rely on them for EDC. Watch some of her videos, if I recall, she wears some tight fitting tank tops and is able to conceal some larger pistols.

Sometimes, you just have to change your wardrobe slowly to accomodate concealed carry.

Got it. Yes, printing is a problem with the way my clothes are cut. I'll have to figure this out.

No no. You're more than welcome here. I just had no idea.

We love everyone here.
