I dug out my old Dillon progressive press today. I can't remember the last time it saw service, but I know it has been more than 10 years. It's old technology, and I had to learn how to set it up all over again. Setup takes time to get it right, but once that's done, it cranks out rounds fast.





All youse guys what caint find ammo, eat your hearts out!

 

What are you loading? Looks like pistol rounds, but I can't tell from my phone.

OK, I'm officially eating my heart out. Last time I saw a box it was going for 35 bucks.

Good morning SoCal truckers, F1 race on now & NASCAR race in KS later, have a great Sunday ....

 

Anyone ever get an Earl paint job? From Wiki:

Founded by Earl Scheib (February 28, 1908 – February 29, 1992) in Los Angeles in 1937 the company grew quickly following World War II and by 1975 had branches in Germany and England, all company owned, with Scheib manufacturing his own paint through a wholly owned subsidiary.
Earl Scheib's paint-coating systems were used by its company-owned paint and collision repair shops. The paint also was sold to original equipment manufacturers and architectural construction firms.
Scheib's policy of one-day service and production line techniques flew directly into the face of state-of-the-art professional Auto Body standards and caused the company to become a national joke at the time.
Scheib was plagued with a high employee turnover rate due to the demands of attempting to paint up to five cars a day. The company's main criterion in hiring and promoting management trainees was based on sales skills only. Knowledge of auto body repair or painting techniques was not required. Trainees underwent a short training period and were then assigned to their own shops. Managers who failed to increase sales for three successive months were fired, regardless of seniority. Auto body, painting and prep personnel were represented by Teamsters Unions.


In the 1950s, Earl Scheib expanded his company with locations across the nation and started a national ad campaign. Earl wrote the commercials and became the company spokesman. He became famous for his slogan, "I'm Earl Scheib, and I'll paint any car, any color for $29.95. No ups, no extras." This campaign and slogan was maintained until Earl died. However, the price was slowly increased over the years.


I'm hoping Dummy pipes in with some interesting tidbits.

 

Drama that could be potentially disastrous for somebody is unfolding on the 7.3 forum that y'all may want to keep an eye on.
