Heard about the shockwaves not expanding. What's the charge you throwing? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Haven't used a computer in many years, probably in excess of 7. It's all about tablets and phones now. Not even sure if it'll start up. Probably have about 4TB or raid storage and something like 120BG of solid state HDD for OS purposes. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I'm pretty sure "necessary" is now a relative term. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Rifle Caliber- Which would you choose?

Froggy, this forum is like a dysfunctional family, we all make fun of one another. That's just how we roll. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -

But first, you must place it "there" wherever there may be. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -

I suppose Bloomberg and his goons hasn't reached out to said gun store, yet. The law does not prohibit one from purchasing a firearm legally outside NYC, but a lot of retailers will not challenge it, and simply refuse to sell you a firearm without the permit to posses. Best to get the permit, or buy elsewhere less you like wasting time looking for that rare store that would sell. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Unfortunately, I don't. It wasn't easy to figure it out through the NYC penal code, but once upon a time I read through it and found it unlawful to posses a crossbow in NYC, amongst other things. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I Think I "Want" a Bigger Hammer!
shawnhu replied to wildcat junkie's topic in Guns and Rifles and Discussions
Not sure what he's saying, but it's not the grains in a bullet that does the killing, but rather the penetration and energy released that does the damage. So with this in mind, a 165gr bullet in a smaller caliber will have a higher sectional density, and likely to penetrate more given all other variables the same. That extra penetration may be desirable for larger game, or undesirable for smaller, shallower game. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems -

You'll find quickly that you'll not be able to purchase. A firearm in NYS, CT, NJ, or PA. It's not about storage to the gun shops, it's about not selling it to you because you don't posses such permit. Don't believe me? Call up the gun shops and tell them you want to purchase a gun and you live in Manhattan. See what they say. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

The issue is that it is illegal to possess a crossbow in NYC. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Replaced all 4 rotors and pads on the car for under $200, brembo parts. DIY is great, more money for hunting and fishing gear. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Same one I have, and a lot of reloaders use it. [emoji106] X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

I'm not sure your question really helps the OP in the least bit. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Unfortunately, the law is one thing, and what the shops understand it to be is another. You won't be able to purchase a gun in most of NYS because of your residence without the NYC long gun permit. You won't be able to own a crossbow either, as I believe it's illegal in NYC. You're left with a traditional bow or compound. Bow hunting near NYC presents a lot of opportunities, and many have picked it up to extend their season. 30-45 mins in either direction and you're onto some decent bow areas. Something to think about. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

How about a Canon point and shoot that you can pull the SD card and plug it into your computer? X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Haven't built one, but started toying with the idea of building one. I also have a model 11 in .243. If I had to do it over again, I'd get one in 6.5CM instead. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

Definately not recommending it, just stating that's what I did. I later got a puller when I needed it, and downloaded manuals online. I currently have the Lee, Lyman's, Nosler, Hornady as well as Hodgdon's data all electronically. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems

When I priced my stuff out, I realized that the kits didn't save a whole lot. So when looking at kits, buy only the kits that you'll use 80% and more of the items in such kit. I went with the Lee Challenger Anniversary kit. Sales can be had for these kits if you wait for them. Additional to the kit, I purchased calipers for measuring case and cartridge length. I purchased the Lee 4-piece die set for .243 but you can get away with just the full length sizing and the bullet seating dies. Bullets, powder, brass and primer and you're set. Everything else, is just gravy IMO. You can make your own bullet trays, don't need an electronic scale, or a bullet puller. Don't need a better powder measure, as many will tell you the Lee Perfect Powder Measure is extremely accurate and repeatable. Don't need a fancy trickler as I use a spent 30-06 case and use that to trickle. Definitely don't need a tumbler. I downloaded some manuals online and got my data from research, all free. Lee also makes a loader for $10, so you can literally start cheap, or go extravagant with this hobby. Regards to a turret, I found that if you're loading in volume, you most likely will be doing each task in volume, i.e sizing all cases, then priming all cases, then throwing charges on all cases, then seating bullets on all cases. In this regard, I found that the new breech locking system Lee has is extremely simple to change out the dies for each task, and I find the turret not necessary. If you do one round at a time from start to completion, then I can definitely see the value in the turret system. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems
