Hi from central PA...

[Mity2]

Hi guys. Been lurking for a while, and finally got around to join up.

I got hooked on 10mm recently when gunshop talked me in to buying RIA 10mm Tac.
I now kicking my own butt for passing on buying Colt Delta Elite or Kimber eclipse 10mm in the past.

Anyway, I've joined mainly to get more info on reloading 10mm, as there are pretty much no 10mm ammo around here, unless you pay up to bang hole, or order them online(and still pretty expensive and on the somewhat weaker side of things.

I'm setting up my reloading station right now - I got press, powder measure, and manual. I'm hoping to pick up everything else that I need, and start reloading by the end of month.

It's been way too long since I shot my 10mm(March, May be? There were still snow on ground last time I had 10mm ammo to shoot...

Edit - oops, looks like I posted on wrong place. I didn't see the post where you supposed to do introduction...

Mity2, welcome to the forum!  Congrats on your RIA, for your reloading there are many items to study in the pull-down sections and the reload sections.  Take some notes, save some of the documentations, and also I posted a topic for downloadable data.  You can never have too much data to study, especially data that includes pressure values.

I had the pleasure of hunting in Center county, PA in 1976...Although I didn't get my deer, I did get a pheasant, a rabbit and dispatched a smelly skunk from the camp one evening!  I saw lots of deer, just not any legal ones presented a shot.

Best regards

That's funny, as I live in Center County! State College to be exact.
Small world.
Although, 1976 is before I was born...

Yes, I have been reading up many topics in Reloading section.
So much info makes my head spin!

My roomates when I lived in Virginia were all from like the Uniontown area. We used to go up weekends to their parents house. I remember eating fried chicken wings at 10 cents per.

Never did like Rolling Rock beer at all, though. Iron City wasn't much better.

Gandog, it's funny you mention the Rolling Rock Beer...everybody's hunting camp or house we visited up there had old refrigerators with kegs inside an taps on the doors or a supply of cans or bottles of beer.

While I was there in PA, I sampled Rolling Rock, Strohs, Iron City, Schmidt's, Pabst Blue ribbon among other popular brands.  At one place we visited, they had pickled Bear meat, they offered me some, being an cajun (we eat almost anything), I found it very tasty!

The thing that intrigued me the most, was the silhouetted cutouts of flagging deer along the major highways, in the effort to keep them off the highways.  However as we were driving through some towns, deer came running in between peoples' houses and out into traffic.
