Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Just a little help ,from friends, please.

We really do need a sarcasm icon.

Did you coat the inside of your dies with your new sniper lube?

Will any of these do? ( I don't know how to pull themout to post here)

I think this meme applies to someone on this thread:

Ya think?

mebbee so.

........ on another website.

Huh, who would have guessed that the Spring Valley, NY fraud would fail yet again, and this time in front of his NJ grandson who just happened to come up for the weekend?

All WET is a continual comedy of errors and a complete fraud.

Thanks Guys"

It's just hysterical. I can't stop laughing. You are leg slappers. I know you are all good sports, wink wink.

So here's the deal. Part two, stage one. *( And I ain't funning ).

I have quite a collection of dies over 50 years, numerous calibers, pistol and rifle.

Cases come in a variety of shapes, straight wall, bottleneck/shoulder, tapered wall, rimmed, rimles, belted rebated.

Some dies are 2 set, some 3 set, some 4 set, some universal. But to focus lets just stick to .25-05 Neidner Wildcat *( Later re-named .25-06 Remington. . 30-06 Springfield, the old original, and .338 Winchester Magnum.

Primary dies are Lyman and RCBS with some small part from others. Things change over 50 years. I'm wondering is my old dies are maybe still good but possibly something better around.

Little pesky problems that came to the forefront were that my neck expander didn't seem to expand like before. I had a hard time putting a bullet in to seat it? Once seated the crimp was a bit dicey and difficult to adjust properly. I dimpled one shoulder which normally is due to excess lube but I only swiped on a little bit with a cotton swab?

I'm wondering if I should maybe retire some of my dies and buy new ??

What dies do you buy?

Do you use 2 die set, 3 die set, 4 die set or other?

Is the micrometer bullet seating die worth the money?

Some sizing dies have the tungsten ring and do not require lube. Are they worth it.

What else is new and modern if I decide to trash the old stuff and start over new ?

I cut my teeth on Lyman. They work for me. The finish isn't as spoofy and smooth as some others like RCBS but is there really a quality/performance difference ?

Thanks for any help.

RCBS, Redding, and Hornady have always worked for me. No retard involved though.

Forget the crimping, it's not needed.

Yep. Even had success with Lee, Lyman, and Pacific as well. Still no Spring Valley, NY fraud involved, though.

It'll get REAL interesting when (and IF) he sets up a chronograph to verify his wildazzed excursion into internal / exterior balistics.

I just hope he doesn't let anyone else shoot his handloads (especially a kid) until he gets his act together.

Hey Friends:

Just got off the phone with Lyman and RCBS.

Liked what I heard but didn't like my situation. They were obviously mystified by some of my dies !!!!!!!!!!!

So I've made my decision. I'm trashing all old dies and ordering new.

We went over the procedures carefully and both said theirs are 2 stage dies. That is certainly not what I have.

Any constructive recommendations are welcome.

*( The dysfunctional clown losers are also welcome ).

Yeah, it's the fault of the dies that you're a fraud and a buffoon.

You continue to have no class and no integrity at all; had you either, you'd have honored your own promises to leave.

God help your grandson; he's going to need it.

Or whichever planet wet is on right now.

This "dysfunctional clown loser" suggests you buy factory ammo. Win-win situation for you and your grandson.

Great input friends:

That really goes to the main issue of resolving the issues.I'm so grateful for your wisdom and expertise.

Really a class act that the vast majority of Good Guys here can appreciate.

I'm coming to the conclusion that the site owners keep you dysfunctional clowns around as Court Jesters for entertainment.

But your schstick is becoming time worn. Second reruns already. The same old, same old. Once you have proven that you don't have both oars in the water it really isn't necessary to prove it again.

Guess what. I'm trashing my old dies and ordering the FULL complement of the latest this week - just because I can and just because I want to and just because my Grandson deserves the best.

If you missed your opportunity to respond to my appeals for recommendations and opinions that means that I will go with the best.

You're nothing more than an old, delusional fraud. That's clearly evident and that you think anyone is actually assisting you is laughable.

You're a fraud and a disgrace.
