Ok what did you get??

I got one of these...well next week I'll have one of these....

http://cz-usa.com/product/cz-455-var...mposite-stock/

And I have been wanting to try one of these to see what all the fuss is all about...

http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...589cda6614.jpg

So I got one!!
And must say it is all everyone says it is!! I've heard from many ppl that the Sinclair hand primer is the cats a$$ and you can actually FEEL the primer seat...I called BS for years...well I'm a believer after using one...this is a fantastic tool and is extremely sensitive and at the same time VERY powerful...you could easily tear a rim off a case with this tool or at least tweak one real good.

This set up was $109 shipped but I bought a 308 shell holder instead of using the universal shell holder on the left...a little spendy but you'll know why if you use one.

I've used the K&M tool with the gauge for a LONG time and may sell the K&M after I do a little testing.

I got a rifle case and a rear bag (protektor brand) for my ARA rifle set up, so I hope to get my ARA rig figured out by March when the matches start back up.

Nice priming tool, I got a RCBS universal tool a month ago as a back up for my lee primer.

Merry Christmas and HNY to all.

If that CZ Trainer shoots anything like my two CZ rimfire rifles you'll know why I sold my Savage's to get another CZ.

I've heard a lot of good on those Sinclair priming tools as well, I just can't use a hand primer anymore - least not until I cave and have surgery for my carpal tunnel. Any chance you'd be willing to write-up a thorough review for it with 3 or more good photo's that we could post up on the website? Shoot me a PM if you'd be interested in doing that.

Ooooohh....a LabRadar! I've been looking at those as it would be great for doing some more in-depth and detailed articles on ballistics, but alas - I'm toy poor at the moment. Might have to put on a Savage Shooters event up here this year just to get you to bring it up to the Lima area so I can drool over it. haha

My one and only present this year was a $75 gift certificate for Midway USA, which I promptly used this morning to help cover some of the $400 I spent ordering 6.5 Creedmoor ammo and a set of 34mm rings for the upcoming Stealth rifle & Bushnell Tactical Elite scope reviews. So I guess you could say that in a sense I'm passing along my Christmas present to all of you this year. You're welcome :p

from what ive read and seen the CZs are hammers...with the right ammo...from my limited understanding of a 22LR you are trying to match ammo to the chamber...ive read so much about the CZ455 my brain is mush but if i remember right CZ and lijia both use the bentz reamer which is a little loose and long so that most over the shelf ammo will chamber and extract but the PTG match reamer is the sweet spot for the mid priced match ammo.

ive got 5 different ammos coming so ill try them and if the rifle wont shoot ill buy a PTG match or Lijia match reamer and have the barrel set back and rechamberd...or MAYBE just swap out the barrel for a Lijia...they are not cheep but id never shoot out a 22 barrel in a life time anyway...ill post up when i get it going...hopping next weekend.

yeah i might do a review after the first of the year on the sinclair priming tool...can you PM me some info on how you want it laid out? im not much of a writer and do not like typing LOL.

Heck yeah.... You're less than an hour and a half away, and there's plenty enough Ohio guys on here to get something together.

I managed to do it all with cash this year and paid off all my bills except the house and my wife's car.

I ended up buying myself a Browning Maxus to step into the semi-auto waterfowl hunting world and maybe have a chance to keep up with my brother.

Since you asked; a Lyman digital trigger pull gauge, a McMillan " Edge HV " due to arrive in mid Feb. , and I am buying myself a Farley II front rest to get myself more addicted to short range BR.
Watch for current D R Greenlaw rest in classifieds. http://drgreenlawmachining.com/_e__style_rest this one.

My big present this year was one more gun safe. SHMBO got tired of running into guns all over the house so she got me another gun safe; this one "says" it will hold 64 long guns - we shall see. Anyhow, got it into the basement (that was a chore that took 4 big folks to manhandle down the stairs)!! It will take at least a week to get it set up with the Golden Rod heater and two strip lights before shuffling the firearms around. One more fun project!

It's pretty much a given that whatever they state the capacity is, cut it in half.

They should really update that. They would probably sell bigger more expensive safes if they stated that said unit holds 48 guns / 24 scoped rifles or whatever..

Of course they may make more by selling us TWO safes... LOL

Savage 112 Magnum Lapua.
100 pieces Lapua brass
338 Lapua dies
It's a BLAST both literally and figuratively.

They will hold the stated amount, but only if they're single barrel firearms without an optic and you don't mind them being packed in so tight that you have to take half of them out to be able to get one out from the back.
