Maybe a new press. Mine was purchased by my dad in the 1960's. RCBS Rock Chucker. Still works, but it is the only I own that may be slower than me.

What press are most guys using now??

Happy New Year </div></div>
A lot of people like the Forster Co-ax

Mine will likely be a micro red dot. Waiting till after SHOT to see what the latest releases entail. Alternatively a different stock for the shotgun - I'm short and need shorter!

The transfer fee for my FINALLY arrived Score High Gunsmithing 300WM!!! So, that's gun related heh? Once he told me it was shipped, I ordered the Magpul Precision Rifle video as well.

Just ordered an AI AE, 24"bbl, fixed stock and an SB PMII 4-16x42 from the guys at Euro Optic. Hoping for an early March delivery on the rifle- contracting in Baghdad but will be out on a break then. If not, then I have an unfired DSA SA-58 that needs some exercise...
 
Re: What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

I got my AI AX chassis in today, but technically I made the purchase last year. Next is a USO SN 3 T-Pal. That will be near the end of Feb or early March though.

Well, I talked to moon at GAP about it a few months ago and ordered the Manners and barrel already, but I haven't sent my action in yet, but you could say that's my first purchase.

Re: What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

I "bought" (traded-for, actually) a Rem. 700 AAC-SD yesterday. While I'd love a Larue OBR, the $$$ just isn't there but that particular Remington will let me get into the precision rifle world for a lot less dough while still being a quality rifle that won't hamper me when working on fundamentals.
 
Re: What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

well I ordered a jse complete upper on new years eve, then yesterday I picked up a used savage 110 in 7mm mag to do a 7stw build for my dad. He is going to be surprised!

We got grandpa's old WWII service rifle passed down to us over the holidays, so just placed a big order for refinishing products, a correct original sling, bayo, and ammo for it!
