Make sure you put eyes on the paperwork associated with the new timing chain (yea, I trust car dealers about as much as I would trust a Clinton). If it is truly being replaced that is a good thing...

Memory jog -- that is the supplier I go mine from via their ad on ebay.

The Aloris posts are good (lathe at work has a set) but the cost of the post and a set of holders will be very dear. I bought a clone set on ebay including post and 5 holders for a little north of...

My handguns like the automatch just fine -- good accuracy and not a single failure to tire after thousands of rounds. In my Win model 52 rifle it rivals CCI std velocity but not as good as high...

Looks like a very good machine in nice shape.
Learning -- a lot of good info on the web. Look at youtube videos. Monkey around with machining scrap rods of different materials and get a feel for...

The mount pictured on the old Blackhawk is a custom critter of my design and CNC fabrication (Raptor Engineering). I have production models for S&W and Ruger double action revolvers. I cannot offer...

Randy,
Thank you so much for taking the time to post your thoughts on the mount. I am a novice at this machining stuff. I worked as an electronics engineer for 40 years and when I retired I...

I just got a Burris Fastfire III sight for my new S&W 617 revolver. I do not like the cheap general purpose Weaver rail mount as it is rather large and puts the sight up high. There is a semi-custom...

I replaced the cotter pin with a small machine screw. The dead primer catcher is one of the less thought out aspects of these machines but can be made relatively reliable.

A wild guess -- maybe at the low setting there is a small enough gap between the adjustment ram and the powder measure body that individual powder kernels jam up between the ram and the body. But...

Give it to someone just starting out with limited funds -- what I did when I upgraded to the RCBS.
