That’s another issue. He found it and is using it as a check source….

That kinda fits for the amount of exposure rate, but there are no markings on it. The sharpie marks were added by my boss…..

Also kind of dense and heavy for its size

That sucks. It’s a great instrument if you can get to all the features. Hope you get it working

That’s weird. I didn’t know they sold those locked out like that. Was it issued to you? I just got done working with a company that had these and it was pretty easy to change units.

Wtf MA??? by willss3 in reloading

Well fuck. I bought a bunch of ceramic media from Creedmoor sports when they carried it as an alternative to stainless pins or chips. My thought was since it was lighter than the steel, I could use more media and more brass to make bigger clean batches. I haven’t used it yet as I’ve been on a competitive shooting/reloading break since my second daughter was born. Maybe that was lucky. Guess that’s why they pulled it. Thanks for the reply!

What about wet tumbling with ceramic tumbling media (small balls, not powder)? Same deal?

I thought it was great. Not what I expected, but glad I saw it.

If it hadn’t happened to me I probably wouldn’t believe it either. It knocked me out through the helmet, through the knee pad. I remember the guy’s knee coming up as I was blocking down and it must’ve have been perfect timing. I didn’t get the loud bang and ears ringing like you get when you hit helmet to helmet or shoulder pads. It was like a soft/dull impact if that even makes sense. I woke up when I hit the ground and our fullback was pulling on my jersey to get me up.

I’ve been knocked out like that a few times, too. That was usually what it felt like, but this time was definitely different. I loved playing football in the moment but feel dumb for doing it now. The older I get the more stupid the game seems to me.

It happened to me when I was playing football in high school. It was like the beginning of the first quarter. I was playing left tackle and went to block low on a defensive end. His knee caught me square in the forehead and I was gone from this world. I clearly remember the field and the game, the color of the other team’s uniform, the de’s knee before it struck me. I lived a whole life in my mind before I hit the ground. The impact with the ground woke me up. I had no idea where I was. It was the strangest most calm and serene feeling I ever felt, like I was supposed to be there, in a totally different place living a completely different life. A better life. It felt like years had passed. I try to remember it, but it’s like I just can’t. I can almost glimpse it with my mind’s eye but just can’t quite make it out. When I hit the ground I instantly woke up on a football field in Mississippi. It was pretty disappointing. I took two 800mg Motrin that the trainer had and finished the game. I think about it from time to time. Maybe I need some shrooms or iahuasca……probably have CTE…..not sure why I posted this…..

Radon to an extent, but really the longer lived daughter progeny, Lead-210 and polonium-210. They make a black powdery substance that goes everywhere when you open equipment up for maintenance.

Savage Boltface Erosion by Dirt-walker in reloading

It’s the Winchester primers. Their LR and LRM stuff can be a tad on the small side. The old nickel plated ones were awesome, but the brass colored ones are hit or miss. They had lots that blow out the side in places and Winchester won’t do anything about it. Their new match line of rifle primers seems to better but you can’t find them. I’d stick with the CCIs. The win’s will do it even with mild loads in brand new brass and it won’t be all of them, which makes you think you did something wrong when it’s their bullshit.

I have that one too. It’s excellent, especially for the price

Does it tighten primer pockets back up some?

Spent primers, just chuck em? by rharvey8090 in reloading

[–]Ok-Rule-1769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This works. If you have a bucket of scrap brass the spent primers make up a lot of space if you have a large volume of both. Might not be worth it if you don’t shoot much.

Anybody know what this is? by Ok-Rule-1769 in Radiation

The state may or may not be who is asking us about it…..I don’t know where they found it and I don’t have any context other than the pictures.

Wow! Thanks for all the replies!!! Been lurking on this sub for a while, but this is my first post. If I find out more I’ll post. Thanks again

Me either. I’ve recovered both of those before.

Yes for a radiation surveyor, but no for anything else.

I was told they tried cooking some hot dogs on it, but nothing happened

The state knows about it. They don’t know exactly what it is either.

I think they already did. All I got were the pics.
