Ice and Therapy are your best friends gpraceman, ACL or replacement? What kind of trimmer did you get, and what Chrono are you looking at?

Best wishes for a speedy and full recovery !

It was a torn meniscus repair. Got to keep weight off of it to let the meniscus heal. Hopefully, I can stave off an eventual knee replacement.

I got a barely used RCBS Trim Pro 2 for a decent price. Then I added a 3-way cutter (along with applicable pilots) and a power adapter to run it with a cordless screwdriver or drill.

The chronograph I am eyeing is the Competition Electronics ProChrono DLX Chronograph.

Outstanding on the trimmer, well done !

I picked up the Chrono you are looking at last year and could not be happier with it. I have put it to good use for all my platforms and it has preformed admirably without a single hiccup. I place it on a quick disconnect tripod for easy adjustment.

I also like the software to track the data. I can edit it, add specifics like powered, bullet, etc.

I envy you RT, It will be a couple of weeks or so before I will be able to get some rounds downrange. Its bee a long three/four months and I am looking forward to some R&R. How's the weather been out there?

Not as much as usual, we had a pretty dry winter, only a couple of storms, maybe 2 inches since January 1.

Weather has been really good, especially in the deserts. Mid 70's, very little' if any wind. Thinking of taking my Ruger No.1[30-06] out this time. Haven't shot that in a number of years. It's due. Hurry up and get back and do some shootin'!

Well, the 4 lbs of IMR 4198 I had ordered from Hogdon a couple of weeks ago, has been cancelled. Seems they over allocated & when they went to fill the order, there was none available.
I'll have to try later.

Sorry to hear that Grunt. I received an email that my W296 was on the way. Sure takes a long time for them to ship but that's okay. I wasn't in any hurry for it.

Loaded 200 rounds of 9mm for my son today. He wants to go to the range again Friday. I'll let him buy his own ammo after this. I loaded a 115gr X-treme copper plated bullet with 3.5 gr of Bullseye using a Remington 1.5 primer. The Lyman book ahs 3.5 as the starting load. I figured that the low pressure might help him with accuracy using that small Kimber micro.
