Thats refillable I assume like any from a local shop? Just surprised that’s on Amazon.

Not sure if we have 200 or 300’s, own some and rent some from Indiana oxygen.
@T-DOGG make sure to check out rentals.

Just ordered some Lapua Long Range 22 ammo. Ya know for long range. Like 100 yards.

Thanks, @gmcttr , its been awhile since I could blame spending on you.

I have some SK Long Range Match in 22LR. I’ll bring it to the SGE and we can compare.

It warms my heart.

What about the 686-1 that may be in southern Indiana?

I am at 1106 versus you at 1099.

I win.

I hate to run you out again. I wouldn't want to exceed my pantless hi-way miles.

It is a solid price for a decent gun though. At least in the limit pics online. Need to see the forcing cone, top strap and a decent idea on end shake.

I used SK LRM exclusively in my Kidd rifle for NRL22 with great results.

I've found Lapua and Eley to perform better in my BR rifles though.

Top strap cutting and end shake I understand. Educate me please, what do you look for with the forcing cone?

Short answer: A heavy dose of 357 mag full house loads in a K-frame (and other platforms) or timing issues can cause cracking, leading etc. Pretty rare in my limited experience...

$300 for a empty tank is not that bad. I’ve seen used ones going for $275.

It is when you paid that much for the welder itself. I'm starting from scratch and I wasn't expecting almost $400 for gas. I had to buy a welder, helmet, wire, gloves, apron, nozzle dip, etc. I still need a cart too, Harbor Freight was out when I stopped by. And I need a regulator for the cylinder.

I'm not in the industrial field for work, so I had no idea what some of this stuff cost. Again, sticker shock. And **** poor planning on my part. I just wanted a slightly better setup than the cheap $100 harbor freight gasless mig welder I had years ago. Didn't think I was gonna have almost $1k in a budget Mig Welding setup. My ignorance. I haven't been around welding equipment in a very long time.

Did you purchase it new or used?

Call and ask if they do rentals.

All new stuff. Brand is YesWelder on Amazon. Multi use welder. Mig / Tig / Stick. 220 or 110. Gas or gasless Mig. I know, it's not a Lincoln, Miller or Hobart.

Very nice welder. I would just run the flux core wire and save up for your gas tank. $40 for the Regulator/Flow Meter is cheap. You will get there Travis...
