Hi Guys, I've been riding for about 6 years. I believe in ATGATT. But I don't hate on anyone who doesn't. I care what you ride as long as your not a jerk to others who dont have the same type. I've been down once ( I tried to adjust my handlebars to make it look cool, DOH! I had only been riding for a month at the time) I won't make that mistake again. I actually hit a deer two years ago , but keep the bike up Actually it was more like I "bumped a deer". I love bikes and guns I live in Columbus close to Westerville. Anyway great to be here.

A 19yo crashed at approximately 157mph and lived. Some say intoxicated, but he ran off the road in a curve, for 348 feet before impacting first a concrete light pole, and then launching into another pole, and then flying 104 feet to a stop. The front wheel and engine parted at the first impact. The patrolman that clocked him, never even got a chance to turn around and it was over and done. Not much left of the bike. They say it was a 2004 Yamaha YFR. KOLD News 13 http://www.kold.com/Global/story.asp?S=13722715

If you don't realize the difference modern technology & the media makes these days in spreading mass panic & paranoia instantaneously... Then you're the idiot To the best of my knowledge... Al Gore hadn't invented the internet yet in 1618

1. The cost of metals has at least doubled. So everything made of metal is twice as expensive for materials now. Ammo and reloading both. 2. You can't sell ammo you make, per ATF regulations. Only a manufacturer, with a manufacturer's license. Fair warning. Nor would you want to. The liabilities and insurance are too high. 3. If you don't count the initial investment in reloading equipment, reloading is cheaper. Also, don't count your time spent reloading. You're not getting paid to reload. 4. Do research before purchasing equipment. You won't want to buy stuff twice. I prefer gear that works best for handgun ammo, but still works for the occasional rifle load or two. Handgun loads will be hundreds at a time. Rifle loads may be only 20 at a time. Beyond that, consider a progressive die loading rig, instead of a single stage, for a higher rate of production. Again, it costs more. But it's ok to have both types of loading rigs. The single stage is more accurate. Some will argue that, but I insist. 5. Don't bother reloading or making mil spec ammo. Just buy it bulk. Multiple reasons. 6. Tapered crimp on shell casings, like that on a 9mm, is harder to do and will take some practice. Actually, both roll crimp and taper crimp are vitally important to accurate loading, and must be consistent. Other than a correct propellant charge, it's the most important part. 7. Learn not to overload your rounds. Learn all the ways you might over load your rounds. Learn the warning signs of an over loaded round. Test a small batch of your hand loads first, to see if they are over loaded. 8. Keep notes on processes and practices. So you can repeat the good ones, and avoid the bad ones. 9. Learn all the errors of reloading and don't do them. 10.Accuracy can be extremely good with hand loads. If you can't do that, you're wasting your time. I can't speak for equipment that is available in the market place currently. I'd have to do some research. But I know what I like. A high quality single stage press, a variety of taper and roll crimp dies, some are carbide, and some are not. the most accurate powder drop I can find, even if I have to get two, one for small handgun cartridges, and one for rifle cartridges. A good analog or digital scale, for checking cartridges after production. Don't fire anything that is too light or too heavy. Dismantle those with a bullet puller and do over. Several good loading manuals. Especially the lyman manual with chamber pressures indicated for the loading charts. And a decent caliper to measure shell lengths and dimensions. One last note: Handling lead is toxic. It's absorbed through your skin, and doesn't want to leave the body. Wear gloves.

never heard of it done like that. how long does it normally take? im real interested at looking at this forum some more lol.

if people really think the world is ending in 2012, they sure aren't acting like it. Any reasonable belief that the world was coming to an end would result in almost instantaneous anarchy. What would you do with no long-term consequences? I sure as hell wouldn't worry about my credit score or savings account; hell, i probably wouldn't even pay that much attention to my wife! trackdays, hookers, and blow. for a year? sign me up.

You sir, are a very wise man.

I've heard about people who like to squeeze one off as they sleep.

it will happen! My spaceship will be done in 6 months! later suckers!

So... Exactly how do you kick it sideways going 140+......
