Not sure what the laws will be in the future. However, I am confident that enforcement in North-Central Oregon will be infused with a lot of common sense. In fact, the guy next to you trying to bum or loan ammo could very well be one of our deputies or even the sheriff himself!

Maybe in some counties Ramos, but in the major areas, I don't believe those LE have any more common sense than the politicians do. And that is a very sad and scary situation for all of us. About the way many are in my commie California. Bill K

You are right, Bill. Just speaking for my own area. I never miss an election, even though my vote is completely meaningless at the State and/or Federal level.

Haven't been on in awhile when I saw this post. I've done 20VT and 17FB from new 223 brass(about 500 ea) and my conclusion...buy from Ramos or High Plains. I would rather be stabbed in the eye then go through that again. The amount of effort needed to do a thousand cases, especially the 17FB, double stabb me!

I saw this before somewhere. You might have posted it here or on another sight. I have everything to make this so I may look into to it some more.

To cut your formed brass, go to Harbor Freight and get a mini chop saw, less
than $40.00. Squirrel Daddy has 300 black out jigs. which work just fine for
correct 20 VT length.

For those of you who thought Squirrel Daddy was another member, it's a website. Took me a bit to figure that out, lol! Looks like a nice set up.
