Nice!
The only thing I have that I'd like to put a can on is the M95 but it's hard to justify the cost and wait time for it!

Sounds like you guys need to start reloading. I have a single stage press for my precision ammo and a progressive press for my blasting ammo.

I need your opinions or experience. I'm in the market for a new rifle and have narrowed it down to two. The Ruger Gun Scout Site or the Mossberg MVP, both in .308. I'm not looking for a 22" barrel, something I can use for hog hunting in the brush or deer hunting and anything in between.

I've always wanted to learn how, but with full time work and school, it's hard enough just to find time to go shooting. Learning how to reload will have to wait until at least after school is done I'm fortunate to make enough money to compensate for my lack of time.

Ideally, I think it would be great to reload it all, but if I understand it correctly, the cost savings are not that great, especially for the handgun ammo. Then again, I'm stupid to reloading. I get the basic concept of what needs to be done, but there is a lot that I don't know.

Match grade precision rifle ammo is significantly cheaper. Also the more you shoot handgun ammo, the more it becomes worth it to reload . It's all relative to what's worth it to you.

I have a few manuals but they are only good for rough starting points on powder charges. You have to do load development to find the bullet and powder charge your rifles/handgun likes. As for the price, hand gun ammo won't be much cheaper but match grade rifle ammo will be. I started loading because I have an M1 Garand and it needs a specific load to keep from damaging the op rod. Then I picked up a .30-06 bolt rifle and match .30-06 is basically non existent. |

Typically speaking brass is about 60% of the cost. When I reuse my brass I can reload a box for about half the price that you can buy it for handgun ammo, rifle ammo is about a third of the price. On the occasion that I have to buy brass, it comes out to about the same. There is a significant cost savings if you shoot a lot. |

Does anyone have a holster mounted somewhere in their camaro? If so, where is it mounted? I would never leave a gun in the car, but my conceal carry position is about 4:30 on my waist and it's nearly impossible to access the gun if I ever were to need it in the car. I was thinking the right, passenger side of the center console (where a passenger's left knee would be - I'm driving alone in the car 95% of the time), but this is pretty easily visible from the passenger window. Kind of a crazy thought, but I'm looking for ideas.
