Well it all depends on what the score was, if it was like 164 and went to 164.8, I'm sure you'd here some difference. You know... There is a reason they use meters for competitions rather than Mr. Joe Blow sitting in there saying which one is louder.

Check yer fuses.

Audiogon is dangerous to the wallet Got my preamp from there... Indeed it is... Got my maggies from there, I try not to visit that site, don't need the temptation. :0 lol, you mean my maggies Indeed good sir. You get that tweeter panel working?

If you don't want to pony up the cash for it, I KNOW he won't either I know he wants to reload his 223. I'm sure there is more but thats all I know of. I'd probably go with a single stage Lee 'O' frame press if it was me then, they seem like a pretty decent press (my boss has one) and are fairly cheap. http://www.leeprecision.com/ Their website isn't working for me right now though...

Option F: Send a text saying they are stupid and to buy whatever you like.

So can you say what you are doing down in Wichita Sean?

But reloading gear is a lot of preference and what works for you... Also get a good reloading book, (like the Hornady one for example) and stick to it and load conservatively to start with so you don't have a KaBoom on your hands...

Nicely done.

I have a beer and just tossed some food on the grill.... Sumos has Kobe beef...

MK, what type of reloading is your friend looking to start doing? Rifle, pistol, plinking, target, what? He should start poking around forums, Lee and Dillon are two companies to start looking at. Some people say just get a Dillon 650 to start with and be done with it, I know other people who have loaded a couple years and ~50,000rds on a single stage press before getting a progressive. Personally I'm not sure what I'm going to go with yet for loading .45ACP, I'm thinking I might go with a Lee Pro 1000 for starters, would like a Dillon 650, but don't want to pony up that cash.

Seriously?

road trip to kansas! hah get out of az for once woot! cant wait to get to back back this weekend to install Yes... You guys need to road trip out here to the great american desert.

I want some more range time to play with my toys now.......

No disrespect to you Kent, but no need for a high accuracy duty weapon, it seems like a lot of LEOs can't shoot all that well anyways... *edit* Most people can't shoot well with a handgun anyways...

Any doubts about the reliability of an XD, look here. http://springfield-armory.primediaoutdoors.com/SPstory11.php

*CZ whore*

I'll agree with you Kent on wanting a SIG 220, but playing with one when I bought my CZ; for 300$ more on a used gun, it was nicer, but nowhere near that nice...

Also might try looking into CZ pistols if you want a full steel frame handgun. The CZ-97 is a double stack .45ACP that is a heck of a gun for the price and pretty darn accurate too. The CZ-75 you can get in 9/.40 and is also suppose to be a very good gun too.

green, green, green.

Now although you better have a dang good grip on it if you are going to shoot one handed otherwise it won't feed right... I've never really had any problems playing with my brothers XD though.

Not a single damn thing wrong with them.

Because its Kansas... There are some really good places to eat in the state, you just have to know where the little hole in the walls are, but there are plenty of 'restaurant in a box' places if you like that (Applebees, Old Chicago, etc, etc), but I can eat those anywhere... The brewery that is in Old Town serves some pretty decent beer I think, but haven't really tried to many restaurants that I could rave about in Wichita, I know the woman realllllllly loves the sushi at Sumo's there in town. Course then in my opinion there is no place to get excellent food here in Manhattan either, all we have is choke-n-pukes and typical chains. I am not so interested in Sushi in a town this blue collar. podunk sushi ftl, great way to get sick. Not quite sure I'd call Sumo's podunk, it is suppose to be really good and run by a japanese chef, teh woman use to work there and still loves it.

Typical kansas weather... We have a chance of snow this weekend in the forecast.

Sean: Its out of your way, but inbetween Abilene and Newton on highway 15, there is a small town named Durham, there is a Mennonite restaurant in 'down town' there (2 blocks west of the gas station) that serves some damn good food. Good old fashion cooking, 10$ for a buffet, and friday nights, lord is it good.
