I bought powder the other day; it was expensive. I bought caps, too; they were expensive. I went to the store and bought eggs; they were expensive...
But ya know, I'm shooting and eating.
C'mon page 20.....

I agree with you 100%. obsessing over it takes the fun out of it. Brought a Guitar to get back into it after a 20 year hiatus .....plenty of strings around....Every man must govern himself.....during the "Pandemic " I took a long hiatus from the shooting sports after having been very heavily involved in Handgun matches, mostly with DA revolvers requiring me to shoot 1-2000 rounds of .38 or .45 ACP through my moonclipped match revolvers to stay any kind of proficient on top of reloading with dummy rounds at home.
It became all-consuming, kind of like some people here, where most of my free time was dominated by finding ammo, obsessing over ammo, training and basically living at the Range. Then things got super expensive and I took a break. I just now looked at the box full of match rigs and gear I used to use , now sitting neglected in my basement but I'm glad I had those years where my skills with a moonclipped Ruger Redhawk were almost kinda noteworthy among maybe 20 people at Regional handgun matches
When I find myself even starting to get back into that mindset , where I'm getting too into finding components......I take a step back and find something else to do for a little while. It's ok to continue to support the 2A but also take a month or two to focus on something else. Coming back to it fresh after a break increases my enjoyment of shooting these old guns even more.

If a hobby feels like a "job" it's time to readjustI agree with you 100%. obsessing over it takes the fun out of it. Brought a Guitar to get back into it after a 20 year hiatus .....plenty of strings around....
Playing instruments is a very relaxing hobby and no one is hoarding guitar supplies yet

That is amongst the many talents I do not have. I have a decent guitar here, haven’t taken it out of the case in years. I just stick to my Native American flutes.I agree with you 100%. obsessing over it takes the fun out of it.

I don't think we're spurring a dead horse any longer. We are now banging the ribs of the decomposed carcass like a xylophone.

That’s who I normally order mine from. Good people.
Generally #11 are used on rifles, #10 on pistols. KYGUNCO has CCI #11, or has had, you’ll have to check.
The TC Hawken has a 1/4x28 thread for the nipple. That one should work for you. I have no experience with them.
Are we there yet????

Why do people use online forums but don't want discussions to go too long 
Would a dead forum be better?
Like some of the other ones where the last post is 2 months old and no one responds to anything
