Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Comment about annealing cases
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some of you probably already know this, but when you anneal cases, the time to do it is after your first cleaning but before re-sizing. The annealing process makes the metal contract just a bit, so that if you do it after re-sizing, the case mouth will be just a taste smaller than it ought to be. Sometimes, this makes trimming a little more difficult because the trimmer pilot will be a little tight.
