Have fun. Reloading for one is a bit tricky.

Cases stretch more in an auto loader so they get thin real fast. I had a few necks separate last time out. Not a big deal the rifle will not load the next shell. You also need to get a special die for the crimp. I have a Lee factory crimp. Needs a little more bite into the bullet or the action of the bolt will knock the bullet inside the case when shooting.

Dropped the FAL off with the gunsmith for the muzzle brake to be 'permanently' attached as well as a thorough going over. He's got a Nikon scope I might buy off him as well.

yeah D the Lee crimp fits in my RCBS press just fine. When you set the dies up you just dial out the crimp in the loading die and use the Lee crimp. Its a collet looking thing that really folds in the case.

Good night folks. Dave, have fun in the old country. Don't do anything we would not enjoy. Drink a beer for us.

Off to Stuttgart!

For those thinking of unlocking their iPhone, make sure your baseband is not 4.12.1 or 4.11.3.. No way to do it right now. Apple coded that BB really well and can't be hacked at the moment.

Hallo from the Porsche Museum! Just finished the walk around and now we are sitting down for lunch. After lunch I will call a fellow Pelican that lives near and if he is available, he might come and join us with his 911.

Rick, I found another way. There is wifi every where here. I can get a prepaid card for that and will look into that a little later today.

Keep having fun. See if you can find a Dinkel Acker Beer. It is a local beer. Have one for me.
