This little part from Choate Manufacturing arrived in my mailbox back in mid December.... (my hand inked date as received is showing)...

And... this is what it fits and was installed on the other day!!!

Allow me to offer my apology for the errant cat's paw in the photo.

(Special thanks go out to MSGO member beasleydano who made this photo possible )

Looks good. Might have to get one if I ever decide whether or not to keep my 935 AccuMag.

Looking at their prices on some of their cast bullets, I nearly squealed like a little girl at a My Little Pony movie premier. How bad was shipping?

He seems to have the lowest prices that I've found. I went with the 105 grain, because the 110 grain, .357" diameter Lee SWC's Dan (Subgunfan) gave me worked GREAT in Bobcat's GP100. Still trying to decide if I want to order some 45's from him, or order plated.

He uses USPS Medium Flat Rate boxes ($14.00), says he can fit up to four boxes of bullets per mailer. One thousand bullets cost me $56.80 shipped to my door ($40 + $2.80 tax + $14 shipping).

Also, tell us how those SS "chips" work. And how much they cost.

Haven't used mine except in my Lyman vibratory tumbler (bought the bowl for wet tumbling). Don't really work so well that way - they just stay on the bottom. They're $3 a pound, plus shipping. Ten pounds shipped was $38.50. Southern Shine Tumblers on facebook, takes PayPal, credit cards, or check (I think).

Will do - if it ever stops raining on a day I'm off. Those are the ones I got using some of my "Savings Catcher" balance from Walmart.

Had $71 just from the last couple months. Adds up quick! I've ordered a few reloading supplies, too. Some of the prices are better, some aren't. The reloading supplies I've ordered just seem to take longer to ship (usually almost two weeks). Ordered these the same day I ordered the sights:

View attachment 69769 I really liked my brother's FA hand primer, so I got my own. I would recommend it.

Do you have to swap anything out to go from small to large primers? That’s the only “bad” thing about my RCBS Universal Primer.
