    Burris FF III battery compartment question

    As a long time FFIII user, I'll let everyone know that the Vortex Venom battery covers are just as much of a PITA as the FFIII covers.

    Smith And Wesson Gunsmith California?

    If you're in SoCal, Bolsa Gunsmithing in Westminster is/used to be a S&W warranty place. Another candidate would be Alan Tanaka in Gardena. Reassembling the ejector rod assembly doesn't require a master gunsmith though.

    Sticky Uncle Mike's

    I use Goo-gone. Takes some scrubbing with a paper towel, but it really does the trick. I have some that I've fixed this way years ago and they're still hanging in there.

    federal changing priming compound?

    But it's not so far fetched. The "one year shelf life" rumor started the big Clinton primer shortage in 93 or 94. That was a serious PITA for us volume reloaders. I spent every Saturday driving from gunshop to gunshop to try and scrounge 100 primers here and a 100 primers there. That's what...

    RCBS great CS

    A few years ago I called to try and purchase a new plastic powder reservoir for my 35+ year old Little Dandy powder measure. My original one had developed a small crack in it. They would not sell me one, they insisted that they ship me a replacement for free. After using it for 35+ years. Great CS!

    What did you do with your S&W today?

    It wasn't mine, but I took a friends' 1993 M52-2 out for a test run, firing 50 rds of WW factory 148gr HBWC ammo through it at 25 yds. Great trigger and action smooth as glass, but it doesn't shoot quite as good as any of my K38's and Model 14's.

    Federal Match Pistol Primers

    Yes, just as easy. They're made with the identical same components, they are just made to tighter tolerances.

    Ahh, measure twice, seat once

    No. The brass screens that are used with the LLR are harmless to regular steel. You may be getting the Lewis Lead Remover confused with the lead removing cloths. Those will take the blueing off of a gun.
