I think Joe knows what he's getting into. He's a big boy and can take care of himself. I'm sure he'll indemnify you from any improper operation of the machine and injury resulting from it, so sack up and sell him the g-damn machine already.
Christ, why is this so damn hard to understand? For a supposedly educated guy you're about as sharp as a bowling ball about some things.

Just out of curiosity, why can't Joe go find another 650?

I'm sure he can. The point is why should he have to? He just bought one from a person who agreed on price and delivery.

Joe can find them every day.
I was trying to help Snow get away from what he feels is a dangerous machine. Am going to take it to Dillon here in town and let them do some testing on the machine. If its so dangerous many of us have a difficult time understanding why he now is reloading 500-1000 more rounds in the machine... He has said several times that as soon as the testing is finished he will complete the deal he agreed to earlier. Hope it does not take 10-20,000 rounds to finish! ![]() Joe

Ah... thanks.
I must have stopped reading the old thread before this agreement was reached. Frankly, the pages and pages of people saying "SELL JOE THE MACHINE!" were getting more annoying than Snowman's unsubstantiated claims that the 650 was unsafe or faulty.

If I used a machine that if it malfunctioned, it could seriously hurt me, I would ditch it quick, as soon as it did.
It seems you need your ego stroked. You absolutely, positively have to be right. Your ego won't let do otherwise. When you get called out on it, all of a sudden we are the dumbasses. As far as how smart you are, I thought the definition of insanity was going through the same motions again, and again, expecting a different result. But you are right, If it blows your friggin head off, you'll have shown all of us, By God! Seriously, quit using it before you get hurt. |

It's OK not to have knowledge about a subject, no one is born being an expert on air-cooled Porsche engines or reloading machines. You might notice that I have not commented on the machine being discussed here, because I know nothing about them. I do know a thing or two about Porsches though, and my first ~6000 posts on Pelican were on the tech board, often helping newbies and gladly so. You were memorable because you were the rare person who I did not wish to help, a know-it-all that was completely unteachable while holding absolutely zero useful knowledge about the subject being discussed. I remember Wayne and others being concerned about the misinformation that you were posting on the rebuilding site, after-all it's a permanent data base that people search for answers to technical questions and issues. You're a rare breed, a complete sociopath moron who clearly doesn't own a mirror. If you are a comedian doing some kind of sick riff on a guy w/ every personality disorder recognized by the API, my hat is off. Either way, you need a meeting of douch bags anonymous. ![]()

Dennis, You and I have spoken once. And I was right about you......you are genuine, speaks up, up-front, etc. I am glad you are what I thought you were. I admire that. You are a more sr member that I am and I did not know about Wayne's prior concerns. As I often use the archives, I Thank you and I'll watch out for any 'misinformation.' BTW, your post reminded me of another ex-employee of mine. I was told by almost everyone that "he is so stupid he thinks he's smart." |

You guys all work for Dillon? How about the dozens of others posting the same problem I had? Never had them? BS
PS I shift my 912 Race car at 8000 to 8500 Rpm and it produces almost 200 HP. Hasn't broke. Built it myself, machined it myself, but I guess thats not anything special. The 911's I have build are still running to, wonder how? PS I don't give a sht because I am retired (at age 49, now 59) with a very high income from another bunch of stuff that I did not know what I was doing. Yeh, right. I see a whole lot of jealously and ignorance out there. TFB, for you. |

We all work for Dillon. Check
We are all stupid. Check Bringing out your ego. Check Spreading blame to everyone but yourself. Check I'm seeing a pattern here. Denis, we may disagree on just about everything, but you have my respect. I don't have to guess what you are thinking. That's rare today. |

And don't bother bringing fireworks, just bring your 650's for the annual "reloading race"!

good
go to www.jackfrost.com to see my racecar in the LA grand Prix, I am driving. Came in 2nd in class EP1. Check VARA records Car number 1, for EP1 for the LA GP to verify what I said. How many of these other guys build their race car from scratch, I mean machined and built everything themselves. And then drove it themselves. Not many if any. By the way, don't laugh at my 4th class web site, I have been offered over $25K for my domain name. Don't need it so I keep this spectacular 4th rate photo as a place holder. My daughter uses a subset for her web site, but you have to know the exact address to see it. I am jealous that I do not have the girl on my website. More on the 650 coming soon, for those that really want to know the TRUTH! Not some made up dream of a no count that can't afford one. Also remember that I am loading large rifle, not 45acp, it makes a difference. Any one stating that they know what 550s and 1050's do, doesn't have a clue. They have completely differen't primer systems than the 650. Of course they wouldn't know this. They are frauds. Last edited by snowman; 07-08-2008 at 09:49 PM.. |
