I would not mind seeing the pictures. Perhaps Bruce or someone proficient in doing pictures could be e-mailed them and post on your behalf for all to see?

and collected Winchesters, I believe.
He, Bob Johnson and Fran Barnes and a few others from the area used to come to DCPA for 2700 matches, but that was a while ago.

Same here.
But with revisits, I often notice details I overlooked before. One of the reasons I reread long stagnant threads.
If only I could remember everything!

Star Reloaders / Label Option?
« on: January 29, 2011, 11:35:42 am »
There is/may be another option.
It is possible to cut and paste and save as a jpeg file, the picture of the label (next to the map) from this sites homepage. I have done this for a cover sheet for a booklet I put together for my Star related articles, notes, etc. It can be highlighted and then when right clicking, you have the option to save picture as choice, to your MyPictures folder.
I am not too fluent in photo software, such as Microsift Photo Editor, but I am sure once in MyPictures, and with some effort and creativity, the jpeg can be sized, altered, changed, etc. and the result printed on an adhesive label sheet.
Maybe if some one has photo expertise, they can chime in with the how to do it.

Star Reloaders / Re: Primer die and primer die removal tool
« on: January 26, 2011, 06:31:18 pm »
I have both. The T handle one originated with my fathers first Star in .38. and extra head in 45 circa 1965.
The flat one came into being sometime later on. I would speculate, but not with certainty that the flat was an easier to make lesser cost item.

Loading Data & Reloading Procedures / Re: How to set dies
« on: January 24, 2011, 08:30:31 pm »
Not only should the dies not contact the shell plate, there should also be clearance from the shell retaining straps. Depending on setup, the straps may actually be higher than the shell plate.

What was even more amazing that year was how fast the range crew under Joe DeCosta was able to get things back into shape, to continue on with the rest of the matches.

Star Reloaders / Re: CCI Large Pistol Primers getting sideways
« on: January 20, 2011, 09:32:28 pm »Well, I put 100 primers in the tray, jiggle them around a bit till they're all pointed face down, invert and put about half of them in a pick up tube. Place the tube over the resovoir, pull the pin, and gravity pulls them down. Most of the time. When they get lodged, thats when I break out the specs, gauntlet, mallet, skewer, and vaccum cleaner.I would suggest at the very least to have a full tube. I have never had this problem in the tube, but have always loaded a full tube, not partial.
Sometimes they get lodged in the primer feed mechanism. That requires interuption of the cycle and the start of the fun and games associated with shell plate removal.
salty
I have occasionally had a primer problem in the feed mechanism, but that was usually due to dirt, or debris.

Makes you wonder how many rifle presses were actually made and sold.
For the ones that were, I wonder: Where are they now?
