you, I suffered the same aggressive rudeness over the phone and
missed delivery deadlines. I should have gotten the point they
weren't interested in building a reliable product or doing business
with me. But like an idiot I believed these were just mishaps and in
January 2003 I ordered a 10 inch barrel and shroud ($330). I was
told my barrel would be at my door in seven to ten business days.
Five weeks later--long enough for me to have forgotten I even ordered
anything--the barrel arrived unwrapped in an oversized cardboard
FedEx box severely scratched and dented. To add insult to injury,
the barrel was machined improperly and did not fit. It was then my
responsibility to pay for return shipping so they could

with a delima of my own. I can't find any good load data for my 445
super mag. because the load data I do have is in my Honady book and
frankley it sucks and lacks the willpower to sail my bullets.
Thanks Dan
