    I've got one (love it BTW), other than getting it good and tight on the barrel, and making sure you have enough clearance for the bayonet, it's about as fool proof as it gets.

    One thing I always do though after a session when I pull up the data in excel is to Delete the csv file from the card when I'm done, and reset my string number to 1. Also before you pull the card, make sure and archive the last string or it won't be in the csv file. This way when you go out again, your strings start out at 1 and you don't have to weed through the csv file to find where that day started.

    Got my reloading stuff out of the boxes, into the basement, where there is a heater, and finally got some bullets made. 100 .223! Hopefully I will fins some time tomorrow to make some more.

    Sorted, and tumbled, 737 cases of range brass, correctly put back together the ram on my RCBS turret press, replaced the decapper on my 9mm Lee decapping die, and decapped, sized, and primed 500 cases of 9mm. Now I'm about to go out and start setting up the 9mm dies in anticipation of some bullets I have arriving in the mail soon. Pretty excited to start working up loads again and trying a completely new caliber!

    I made 50 rds of .308. They are as close to exactly like each other as I know how to make. I need to see what kind of groups

    these are for the .308 AR I finished building a couple weeks ago. I'm trying to make tiny groups with it.

    Cleaned, organized, cleaned. Then I'm going to put a big bookshelf in there and use clear plastic boxes to maintain orderliness with. Orderly and me don't go hand in hand.
