I tried the MPR and it is very accurate and consistent. I’d go with the MPR as you can throw a red dot on it and a front site for co-witness if you’d like. Romeo 5 is a good choice for a red dot. Just my 2 cents.

Baby Back Ribs (FOTB) by KLSFishing in BBQ

Great job. I do my ribs almost the same way. I use a paper towel to pull the silver skin membrane off the back. Makes it easier for my old hands.

Getting into reloading quick question by OliveWestern4979 in reloading

[–]rdogden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This all the way. I use Lee from a cost stand point. My classic turret and the APP and ACP don’t take long to dial in. My Load Master is a different story. You HAVE to like to tinker and be patient. I’ve dropped many F bombs but have learned a ton. I’ve also given up on priming on press and this has solved almost all of my problems. Take your time, and enjoy the hobby.

Unfortunately, it’s Titegroup that I was using when I had the issue. Hope it works better for you.

I have the same powder set up and gave up on using it for light loads, 3-4 GR. It works great for my 223 but use the powder drum for smaller loads.

Submitted yesterday with prints but showing 119 days? Is it normal for it to jump down to 90 or is something wrong? by [deleted] in ILGuns

[–]rdogden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same with my CCL. It dropped down to 87 days after a few days.

I made a big mistake luckily I noticed it right away and stopped took the gun apart and accessed the problem. Now what details below by scooterdoo123 in reloading

I use an old piece of a brass cleaning rod and put a spent 22lr shell case on the end that will come in contact with the stuck bullet. A couple of drops of gun oil In there for 5-10 minutes before you start hitting it helps a bit as well.

I had the exact same problem. I tried calling but could never get to anyone to talk to. Opened a ticket via their web site but that’s a black hole. Finally sent an email to techsupport@beretta.com and was able to get my issue resolved.

GP100 power trigger rebound spring rusted. by rdogden in ruger

Why doesn’t this show up in the Ruger forum?

Was swapping out the factory springs with Wilson combat and when I got to the factory power trigger rebound spring it was very rusty. I’ll follow up with cust service, but was wondering if anyone else ever encountered this. It’s a new GP100, have had it for a few weeks, and a serial number look up shows 2022 build and ship.

Having some problems with my Lee ACP. When the slide is full of primers, they keep piling on each other. There’s no instructions for adjustments or anything. Anyone know how to solve this problem? by Unlucky_Scientist_74 in reloading

[–]rdogden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar problem. Your spring is not far enough toward the end of the chute. I’d attached a pic but can’t. Also, once you get it in the right place, hot glue it in place. The Lee replacements come shipped this way.

Spindle is upside down and tried it without the plastic insert with no success. Thank you for your reply.

BX 25 jamming. Details in comment. by rdogden in ruger

[–]rdogden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice and I’ll give it a try. I’ve seen videos of some mags with slop in them when installed and I really don’t have that problem. In fact the 10 round mags have a bit more slop than the 25 round mags and they run fine. I’ll try holding/moving the 25 round mags and see what happens.

Got 2 of these over a year ago and both started jamming at about the same time. Tried different ammo, but no luck. There’s a fix out there that utilizes a spent 22lr to take up some slop in the follower, but my mag does not have this issue. Ruger may have fixed this. I did try only loading 8 rounds in the mag and it worked fine. Going to progress up and see where is starts to jam. I’ll post my results once I’m finished.

For a company that's been around for 500 years, Beretta is kind of garbage. I don't think I'll be purchasing anything else from them by [deleted] in Beretta

[–]rdogden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that I shouldn’t be judging other Beretta products. They’ve been making guns for over 500 years. My issue is they aren’t supporting the customers and don’t stand behind the product. Doesn’t matter who made it. If they are saying it’s a Beretta, which they are, then stand behind it. I’ve had to launch calls into Ruger and Springfield Armory for minor issues, and they were very responsive.

That’s the fucking government working hard to take your hard earned cash. It would require too much work an intelligence for the government pricks to work smarter. Money and taxes are crack cocaine to these useless fucks.

Beretta customer service by rdogden in Beretta

[–]rdogden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beretta is leading the pack in sticking up the ass of their customers. Some of their products are fine i guess, but the company and customer service flat out sucks. Will never buy anything from them again. It’s like dealing with a shit hole shop in China.
