My lapua brass last 11-12 firings. I buy 200 rounds per barrel and toss them all at the end of barrel life.

I’d rather that than anneal. Eventually the primer pockets will go and I’d rather not let that be a surprise

I get probably an AVERAGE of 20 reloads on $1+ a piece brass. Loosing tension in primer pockets is the only reason I toss it. Since I started annealing I don’t think I’ve thrown one piece away because the neck split. I run 600 pieces per cartridges I shoot, and that makes a flame annealer pay for itself in a year, and I could even justify an AMP, though the flame does what I want, which is essentially making an $800 investment last twice as long.

If I saw some guy's middle-aged ex wife alone in a bar, backing her crotch over a corner pocket on a pool table trying to distract some stranger from making a shot, she checks the boxes of being a slut. Nymphomania is a precursor of slutism.

Also, I think Monty is going to pull the rug out from under Tommy and throw him under the bus.

You are still not getting it ,Its just a phase , you could call it catching the last train ,desperate all out of options ,before hook line and sinker are in place then nympho goes puf ,and maniac is all that is left .

It would not be difficult to me make it automatic with the ignition. Turn the key and the vent has to run for a set period and the starter is locked out until the period ends.

That’s actually a regulation on commercial boats in passenger service

No auto feed

This is just my experience and opinion.

IMO you need a machine to get a consistent anneal... those that use a handheld drill method..... I'm sorry but the location of the flame and consistent time in the flame isn't consistent... machine will get you that consistent anneal.

I've used annealers with hoppers and got tired of swapping out parts and by the time I fiddled around with swapping parts and filling a hopper WITH bridging issues and brass not spinning correctly, I was already well into annealing with the EP 2.0 annealer. Especially if you're like me and usually reload 100pcs or less (most hopper annealers usually can't hold more than that anyway depending on size of case). Having a hopper doesn't make it a faster process. If it takes XYZ time to flame base anneal XYZ brass, then having a hopper is just something you need to fill up and then start the process of annealing. Not like you can fill up a hopper and go mow the yard while you have an open flame. You still need to watch the process. If it takes 5 to 6 seconds to flame base anneal XYZ case with a single torch then it still takes 5 to 6 seconds to anneal XYZ case regardless if it has a hopper or not. Just for example..100 anneals at about ~6 seconds each is 600 seconds. 600 divided by 60 seconds is 10 minutes which is a drop in the reloading time bucket IMO. You're still handing each pc of brass.

If you need to pick up the brass and manually orientate the brass in the right direction and fill up a hopper and then change out parts to go from cartridge to cartridge then IMO it doesnt really matter if its single feed or has a hopper, and I'll take the speed of the EP 2.0 change over from cartridge to cartridge that can go from 5.7x28 (down to about 1" inch long which is hard for a lot of annealers) /17hornet size casings to 50 bmg, rim or no rim it doesn't matter, and adjust in seconds without having to add or remove any parts. Very very small footprint also. Pure KISS method.

Now,,,,,,,, if the annealer had a case feeder where you don't need to orientate the brass manually and the machine can orientate and feed the brass for you where you're throwing in handfuls of brass,,,, then that's a whole different story but to get a case feeder (not a hopper = big difference), and can adjust from 5.7 to 50bmg on the case feeder too = cost money and would be very complex... once again just keep it simple stupid IMO.

As a side note, I wouldn't want my torch head mounted... for the sole reason of going from cartridge to different cartridge size. It's fast and easy. Move it, leave it, and forget it...

For someone that has used both,,,, it's my experience and hopefully this helps & why the EP 2.0 doesn't have a hopper = IMO it is really not needed and I'll take the ease of adjusting from different size casings with no extra parts / no tools needed. I just found myself not using my annealer with a hopper & kept on using my OG 1.0 DIY annealer = the EP 2.0 just made it adjustable with no tools needed.

All good… They were part of the setup I had in my other (attached) garage.

I’m reconfiguring that garage’s work and storage areas (and getting the floors done next Spring) and may not keep them. Depends on how expensive replacements run! LoL

I bought my G1 5-42x56 with the intent of using high magnification often. This scope at 42x was pretty bad being dim and even blurry. I'll blame it on the 8.4 mag ratio combined with compact size, or something was wrong with the scope, or my older eyes, and probably all in conjunction. Younger eyes didn't seem to struggle as much at high mag like I did but my other old friends saw what I saw.

But at 15x-20x it was fine, well really nice in fact. Nevertheless I sold it.

Loved most everything else about the scope, especially the huge FOV. A big part of my interest in the scope to begin with was it focused 10 yards away for FT comps.

I hope March made tweaks to the G2 scope so it pulls off high mag better and wish they would put a lab here in the USA for repairs, and delete the high mag ratios.

Per Newsmax's "Wake Up America" show, this morning, FJB has commuted 37 more Federal Death Sentences, but with 3 exceptions.

He did *not* commute Tsarnaev, Roof, and Bowers. So these three still face the Death Penalty.

MSN

Proving that his commutations were 100% political and he has zero valid or virtuous reasons behind them. A woketard placating the other woketards.

I am against the death penalty, will argue against it, but unless there was a good reason to commute or pardon the people convicted and sentenced I wouldn't do it even if it was within my power. It's the law, and people wrung their hands over these decisions for a very long time, as well as considering the impacts on the victims, which Biden did not do... When you look at Trump's pardons and commutations, as far as I've seen, there was always a reason, like it was an egregiously long sentence for a first offense, or there is evidence that wasn't allowed by a judge at the trial.

At least Biden wasn't paid like Clinton was for Marc Rich.

Used to go fishing with a friend who had an inboard and was a former game warden. After talking about it and listening to a couple of his stories. I made my mind up that if I ever get a boat, it will be an outboard.

I’d love to see fov plotted on a graph compared to others. A 4mil wider fov at 25 seems smaller than I would have expected considering it’s a 26 degree optic vs a 22. There must be a bigger fov at different magnifications. Would be nice to plot it out and see where the sweet spot is.
The fov is why I’m grabbing the 5-42 march. Seems to have checked all the boxes. Almost went with the new kahles but 5-42 is most useful

I might be able to do that for you based on the mil values.

I had one in 3006 it was really temperamental in stock form so wouldn't go messing with it.
