    ..and thank you guys for the good wishes on my deal going on here at home, many of you have, and it means a lot to me... I appreciate it.


    I wanted to catch up here, and have to send an email or two, and get moving on some stuff around the house, pay a few bills, and get practicing my scales backwards. Lesson got bumped to Wednesday which isn't all that bad, as I get another evening to hit my lesson assignments.

    I'll be back to harass you guys later..
    Didn't you get the memo?? This isn't PWT anymore, it's the reloading thread!

    OBC, how's the guitar scales going?

    ever figure out that there are only a couple of patterns to learn and then everything is the same?

    You would if you REALLY cared about precision.

    I wish I were motivated right now to start some trimming, but I'm still extremely tired (fell asleep when I got home in about 5min, which never happens for me).

    On the flip side, I have two packages arriving this week that I'm super excited about!
    load a few from every head stamp, but load them to 'almost' max. Then see how the brass is affected. That's why I sent you that pile of various head stamp.

    See for yourself about soft brass, primer flow, primer flattening, head stamp flattening, extractor marks, etc. etc.

    Brass prep is a PITA!

    Oh great goodness!!

    I turned off the alarm, walked over to my wifes side of the bed and then i drop kicked a stuffed animal that my wife had laying around.

    All I could think of was, "why in the actual hell did I even THINK that this remotely acceptable?!?!"

    It's been a LONG time since I've tried to rip a dvd. I'm just wanting to add a couple movies to my ipad. What a PITA! The encoder is slow as shit, and didn't work after 2 rips... I used to do this on PC but now I'm on mac. That is the main difference...
