What are you looking to get out of it? Send me a PM as I can't seem to send one to you?

Thanks

I have used the RCBS Automatic Bench Priming Tool for several decades and it works great. Haven't tried the Forster unit but it looks like a good design. Whatever you do don't waste your money on those adjustable priming tools. Primers are designed to seated so the cup bottoms out in the primer pocket. Every primer manufacturer will tell you that.

This is the RCBS unit:

One of my buddies did this: he is 72 and married like a 28 year old. He's got money now, but might die broke as a joke when it's all said and done. He'd been better off going the hookers and coke route!

Maybe an answer here. Top right of page search engine is your friend.

Some motivation for me this weekend. Had a blue 68 Camaro that was a parts car I rebuilt with leftover parts (350 4spd, ac, stock interior) Traded it to a friend that just finished this 78 c-10 with LS1 and 4l60 out of a donor gto. Nice addition to the collection. View attachment 8642102

That matte silver on the c10 is sick...

I went out of town and my truck got hammered during an overnight hail storm. Golf ball sized hail damage to every surface of the damn thing.

I'm familiar with how the process works on the property side, but not auto. Specifically, the threshold of repair vs. totaling a vehicle. I don't know how much damage paintless dent removal can repair. I'm not sure the process works of totaling a vehicle and options to buy it back from the insurance carrier.

I filed a claim and I'm waiting on the adjuster appointment.

Any insight or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

The term "total loss" is an economic term, it doesn't mean the vehicle is undriveable. The total loss threshold and titling requirements are set by either the state the vehicle is garaged in or the state where the damage occurred whichever is stricter. Most states require title branding when the damage reaches 75% of Actual Cash Value (ACV), some states are as low as 65%. Some states have exceptions for cosmetic damage, and some states deduct paint and materials from the repair cost when determining a total loss. Some states do not issue branded titles for storm related damaged vehicles, they are deemed unrepairable if declared a total loss..

Kelly Blue Book is not used by very many insurance companies anymore. NADA is used by most and is the most generous to the vehicle owner. Book value does not determine ACV, factors like condition, modifications and comparable sale vehicles factor into the ACV. Some states and insurance policies limit the dollar amount of modifications covered by the standard policy, usually to $1000. If there are more than $1000 in modifications the vehicle owner has to declare them and pay an additional premium if they want them covered. Be aware, modifications do not necessarily increase the value of a vehicle, sometimes they decrease the value. An example of that would be the retards that cut holes in the beds of their trucks and install exhaust stacks. Lift kits and tires and wheels that stick out past the body can decrease the value because it limits the prospective buyer pool.

Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) can fix an amazing amount of damage, however it can't fix everything. Many areas of a vehicle are not accessible with PDR tools without drilling holes. The insurance company will not pay to drill holes so those areas of repair will be written to do conventional body and paint repairs.

If you have a title with a lien holder release you can cash settle with your insurance company. You just tell them you want to owner retain the vehicle. They will get a salvage quote from salvage vendors and subtract that from the settlement amount. That process can take several months before you get a branded title back and you can drive the vehicle again. Many states require safety inspections before new license plates will be issued. Once a branded title is issued you will not be able to buy physical damage coverage from your insurance company. You can still get liability coverage.

DM me if you have any specific questions about your claim or your insurance company.

glad I'm not the only one that makes typos... for me seems to be more frequently.

VERY busy spring construction season at the moment...

But in between shifts sitting down for a few forkfuls of takeout and scrolling thru stuff, gotta ask: I am NOT the only one who has noticed that within the last 5 days, no less than 5 online influencers, athletes, and actors/actresses, whom are all young and supposedly healthy and fit, had died suddenly or from 'rare cancers', right?

Certain actions, and the placing of trust in certain things, carry permanent consequences.

The other option is with the Calypso AB Mini wind meters, which only need to be pointed at the target and they can automatically calculate the crosswind.

A great options if they weren't unreliable and expensive...

You probably are looking for 8-40 screws. Those can be bought commercially for pennies. If you bought a regular R700 long action, those scope mount holes are not 8-40. You have to have them drilled bigger and then tapped for the bigger screw. That's what you've read on the internet. I'm going to assume GAP did that already, but no idea.
As for the ring height, you probably need medium or higher rings. I have an M24 with the M3 mounted, and it's on med rings and I still have to have a cheek piece to get a good cheek weld. You can do some approximate math. You know the diameter of the front of the scope. You know the ring heights based on what most manufacturers show on their charts. You know the diameter of your tube where the rings will mount. From there, you can figure how much clearance you might have from the rail to the bottom of the front of the scope.
Last question is related to the first. If the holes are drilled for 8-40 already, you are SOL. If they are not drilled and tapped, then you are in good shape.

You will love the 7-35 I run a couple of them! Have a great day!

Back in high school a few of us went on a 7 day float trip during spring break in Missouri. We decided to bring beer and no food since we were going to catch enough fish to feed us all, as we always had in the past. Turns out we didn't catch many fish, it was rainy and cold. We starved for 7 days but at least we had beer.
