November QoM

Post by Ranch Dog »

Nobody has been asking one as of late so here is a stupid one, anyone see the movie Wind River?

I saw it last night and thought it was a pretty good story. It included a reloading scene with a well-appointed bench of mixed equipment. I didn't take the time to go back and look but I think the press might have been a Classic Cast single stage. It hand the Hornady Classic are very close in appearance but if I had stopped the frame I might have been able to tell. Anybody else that has seen it willing to venture a guess?

You got a Challenger, not a Classic Cast.

Thanks. No box came with it so I didn't know. It's well built aside from the discolored handle that really doesn't bother me.

As an aside....y'all look at others' pics closely?

In mine you can see Lee's book, one of a two book set of Hornady manuals, a 7.62X39 bore sighter, an Aero Precision box my M4 upper came in, Cabela's scope box, brass and bullets, etc.

My eye caught the black dot on your bench. I was wondering if it was a "stage" mark for something?

It's a "contact prevention disc" from the battery well of an illuminated scope I mounted recently for a friend.....trash that I haven't thrown out. I am almost done building two rifles concurrently plus my bench is the staging area for Santa's loot as it comes in mail order.

Pictures
They can hold quite a few cases, are easily relabeled.

As a transfer container, I can work from one bucket into the next. If I get pulled off for any reason I can just leave them and it is usually pretty easy to figure out what I was doing and were I left off. These ones are fairly short but wide to make reaching cases pretty easy. They do seem to hold up pretty well, several of these are 5 years old.

And getting the empties is also a treat. :D
