    When Should Hellcat Springs be Replaced?

    I opened the patio door while reading the news and having coffee so I could hear the song birds in the early morning. I love spring when they come back. We need to get the swamp cooler ready to go, it's gonna hit 87 this week.

    When Should Hellcat Springs be Replaced?

    I don't know how many rounds my Hellcat had, but I swapped the spring (and the entire gun) for a CZ 75 Compact at the LGS. :cool: The CZ was unfired and I fell in love. Sometimes old dogs love old dogs..

    What are you doing right now??

    Back when I worked at a job I absolutely hated, the dread of Monday coming was starting to ruin my Sundays just thinking about it. :(

    What are you doing right now??

    Got to the match today and a cowboy gunsmith brought my hammered double he had lightened the hammers, so I used that. Now I can cock it with one thumb. Brought my short stroked Vaqueros in .38. It's sometimes a mystery how they're gonna shoot with various bullets and powder. I hadn't shot those...

    What are you doing right now??

    I woke up from a nap and I feel much better. I can walk almost normal (for me) now. I hope I don't have to run the timer tomorrow.

    What are you doing right now??

    I replaced the platform on my 650 along with some other parts. They came from Dillon at no charge. :) I also got several alignment tools (yea!) and I went real slow just to get it done right. Once done, I ran some more .38s and it worked to perfection. Yea again. I cleaned the wife's rifle and...

    When it’s beautiful outside, you take the opportunity to move steel targets

    I'm jealous and wish we had a shooting range. Nice dueling tree btw. I am limited to shooting steel every weekend. There is a city range about 12 miles out of town, but it's only open afternoons for pistol 4 days a week. I was excited about the indoor pistol range built at the college, but it's...

    What are you doing right now??

    Ham, baked cabbage, and cole slaw. I'm stuffed. Watching Arizona annihilate Akron. If you can't find anything on TV, you can always watch Longmire on Pluto, it's free.

    no bullets until late summer..???? like WTF...???

    I found a box of .38 158s in my cabinet after running out of 125s. I really didn't want to change over to another caliber anyway.

    Is the XD Irrelevant?

    I don't think they're irrelevant, but it is a dated platform to some folks. Some can be found very inexpensively and if you do have one and enjoy it, there is no reason to dump it. Before anyone starts on my dated comment, I do have SAA clones and 1911s among others.

    no bullets until late summer..???? like WTF...???

    I try to use a glove like a doctor office glove or your fingers will get dirty. I also use a nail brush if I don't.

    no bullets until late summer..???? like WTF...???

    I've used a variety of suppliers, but have gone to cheaper moly coated bullets lately from Bear Creek. For .45 ACP, their RN 230 grainers are pretty good.

    I would need sugar free if that's available.

    What are you doing right now??

    Just got back from getting bloodwork done. I'm starving and the wife is out walking. I'm thinking of pancakes with sugar free syrup and an omelet and my stomach is starting to howl.

    How Do We Feel About...

    I've been tempted with a handful of guns in the past month or so and have shown remarkable restraint and not purchased any of them. If I were to succumb, it would likely be the MC9 LS model. I compared a handful of micro compacts and was a bit embarrassed how large my groups were, but looking at...

    Just finished loading some .38 and tumbled one batch of .45 ACP.
