what is overshot pricelist

Place an overshot card on top of the shot charge just before crimping to improve overall crimp quality and seal in small shot and/or buffer. Excellent for use with BPI Roll Crimpers.

Our testing lab has proven that poor crimps can alter the performance of an otherwise good load. Overshot cards always produce better, more consistent crimps and this consistency is demonstrated in the standard deviation of loads in our lab. Our ballistic lab recommends overshot cards for better crimps in all loads.

Clear Overshot Disks(either plain or printed with shot size) are also offered for great roll crimping options. See pictures in Additional Images or click on this link.

Shotshell size selection:Use the same size gauge as your hull. Smaller diameter cards also work if your particular size is out of stock. For example, a 20ga overshot card works in a 16-gauge shotshell and so on.

You may remember that I recently returned from a visit to The Philippines. It may not surprise you that I am always on the lookout for interesting textiles, and especially handwoven fabrics. I don’t mean to do that; it just happens… Well, when I met sweet Beth at the Sunday market, I felt like I hit the jackpot! Beth and I had a common language – Handweaving! (She speaks fine English, too, of course; but you know what I mean.)

If you don’t have time to look at all the textile pictures today, at least scroll down and see my little granddaughter carrying her big umbrella on the way to the market. Umbrellas are always in season in Metropolitan Manila. For the rain in the rainy season (our visit), and for shielding your skin from the sun all the rest of the time. (You can always come back later and finish looking at the rest of the pictures. Smile.)

Pricing your house for sale is no easy task—and when you want to shoot for the stars for a home you’ve loved, it’s tough to admit that your asking price might be turning buyers away. Shouldn’t you ask for a bit more, to leave breathing room for negotiation? What about being competitive with other homes in your area?

Total existing-home sales nationwide decreased 6.4% from November to December 2018, and dropped 10.3% when compared with December 2017, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). In times when there are fewer sales and analysts point to an overall real estate chill, it’s doubly important to entice buyers both with a home’s remarkable features and a price they’ll reasonably pay.

Knowing what’s on the line, don’t dilly dally over how to tell whether your home listing price is off the mark. Let’s get straight to the point and then dive into some actionable tips to adjust the price with your agent’s help. When in doubt, envision your end game: a “Sold” sign in the yard displayed with pride.

If it’s been more than two months since your home went on the market and no one’s dropping by, that’s one sign that your home listing price might be off, said top-selling real estate agent Todd Schroth, who has 19 years of experience in the real estate business and serves the Orlando, Florida area.

“You should be getting anywhere from two to four showings a week,” he said. Although that does slow down after the first few weeks, having no showings and no offers is one indicator that your home is overpriced.

Depending on when potential buyers see your listing, showings can wax and wane. “I’ve had a house on the market for two weeks, a bunch of showings, nothing for a week, and then all of a sudden on a Friday, I’ve got four people who want to see the house on one day. It’s just timing,” Schroth said. But if all those visitors don’t result in any interest, that’s another clue that your price is in the wrong ballpark.

Real estate values are highly local and can vary even from neighborhood to neighborhood based on factors like proximity to shops and restaurants or location on a quiet or busy street. From a bird’s-eye view, a median existing-home price for all housing types in December 2018 was $253,600, up 2.9% from a year ago, NAR statistics show. (“Existing homes” include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, and co-ops.)

It’s common to leave some negotiating room by asking for slightly more than you expect, but this is typically 5% to 10% above the value determined by looking at comparable properties and usually only works in a seller’s market.

Let’s say your agent suggested listing your home at $350,000, but you wanted to start at $375,000. After three months with no offers, you’ve agreed to reduce to $350,000, but you’ll be lucky to get that much. “When you sit on the market longer, you’re going to end up with a lower asking price,” Schroth said. “Buyers are going to want to pay a lower price because [the property] is considered stagnant.”

It’s smart to compare the pricing strategies among several real estate agents and see what type of range your house falls in. Experienced agents will be able put together a comparative market analysis for you that takes into account the price point of recently sold properties in your area that are similar to yours in square footage, number of beds and baths, and condition—and then add or subtract based on nuanced factors like upgrades or positioning on a hill.

An agent who prices your home the highest might be “trying to buy the listing,” so that your home will ultimately sell for less because it spends a longer time on the market, Schroth said. “They’re going to work you down through the process” instead of pricing your home accurately.

Although it’s tempting to look at what other homes in your area have sold for, understand that you’re likely not comparing apples to apples with a layman’s eye.

“That’s just a very common thing that happens: ‘My neighbor sold for just over $400,000, so I should get $425,000 because the market is going up,’” Schroth said.

“We have to sit down and show them why their neighbor sold for more. Maybe they had a new roof; your roof is 15 years old. Or they had a new air conditioning system; yours is 10 years old. They repainted inside and out. Things like that.”

You also can’t base a comparison dollar for dollar on square footage, because one home may have a better location within the community, or the floor plans may vary, he added. “Does it have a third bathroom? Is the kitchen open? Not open?”

Schroth said each time he changes something on his regional multiple listing service, or MLS, the property appears fresh on the MLS, Zillow, Realtor.com, and other portals.

He’ll also schedule a new open house with the price improvement as an enticement. “We can say, ‘Come check out this listing. … The sellers were motivated,” he said. “Otherwise, you’re just sitting in a house that’s had no changes.”

Deferred maintenance can be an issue with setting an asking price, especially with homes built in the 1970s and 1980s. Schroth said he’ll suggest some general updates and repairs, but some sellers don’t heed that advice.

“Then the inspector comes in, does their inspection, and the buyer walks away because the seller wouldn’t fix something. It’s a $7,000 or $8,000 mistake,” he said. “We can reduce the price, or we can take care of the issue that’s going to come up on the next deal.”

Your real estate agent also can undercut the price to drive a bidding war, similar to when you list a popular item on eBay at a lower price to draw in buyers, knowing that more eyes makes for competition.

Deciding whether to adjust your home listing price can be difficult—and emotional, too, depending on your financial situation and how many years you feel you’ve invested in your home. But taking the time for that tough decision now can save you from losing money with the wrong asking price.

Pricing is very difficult. Data collection, order flow, differential calculus. Is your temperature rising yet? Pricing for consistent profit in this world is tough.

The story goes something like this. Someone starts a small printing business and publishes their price sheet. The owner has not given these prices any thought. They’re just nice round numbers that correspond to case sizes.

A few months later, a competitor comes along and sees these prices. They decide to chop fifty cents off the price. Then they publish that list. They steal all of the customers.

If you didn’t know any better, you’d think that every print shop in town has based their pricing off some hare-brained list that a total joker cooked up in their basement one evening.

Your shop’s overhead and fixed costs are unique. It takes your shop a unique amount of time to do one unique job. Another shop might be much slower. Or much faster. Even a reprint of the same job could vary significantly. Your pricing needs to be focused on the financial and business niche that your shop is in.

More important: your prices reflect your values. Don’t like printing certain jobs? Raise the price. Love other jobs and clients? Lower their price. Prices can move your business forward.

We’ve discussed Xinjiang province on The Weekly before. I don’t know what the cheapest print shop in the world is, but I’d wager it’s one there. Unfortunately, the word “sweatshop” comes to mind.

Overly cost-conscious customers are some of your worst. They’re likely low-volume and require a lot of service. Cultivating a customer base that will pull the trigger on your prices solely because they’re the lowest is a sure-fire way to attract a bunch of slimy characters and shady dealers.

So don’t race to the bottom. Competition there is fierce. People who have advanced degrees and tons of experience honing in on the most efficient process possible are your competition: think Nike halving its production time in 2017, not the shop down the road.

Downtime is inevitable given the ebb and flow of custom orders. 30% of 8 hours equates to 2.4 hours per day of truly effective utilization of the shop’s productive capacity.

Most shops don’t reach 30% utilization. At Printavo, we think the industry average might be closer to 15% utilization. This isn’t bad. It’s just a reality in the shop. Another way to put this: most print shops spend about 70% of their time doing things that aren’t printing.

Administrative costs are like a fixed cost for a print shop. For every X hours printing, you’ll need to spend Y hours administering jobs. Even if your system is very efficient, there’s administrative overhead associated with printing.

But what really happens is that customers order more – but it doesn’t actually help your business. They start thinking about the prices and find ways to order amounts that don’t really make sense. Some customers are overcharged and others are undercharged. Your profit margins are inconsistent.

Amongst many comments from central bankers, Fed vice chair elect Lael Brainard, often seen as a dove, said “ inflation is very high, getting it down is the top priority”.

The Fed may have been slow in starting to tighten, but having achieved lift off the US central bank has signalled a string of rate increases alongside a reduction in its balance sheet through quantitative tightening. We  expect the central bank to raise the targeted federal funds rate at every meeting this year following on from May’s 50 basis point hike to a range of 0.75% to 1%.

So can the Fed can bring inflation down without causing a recession – i.e. deliver the so-called soft landing? Essentially the central bank has to restore the balance between supply and demand such that there is sufficient slack in the economy to ease wage and price pressures.

To achieve a soft landing this has to be done gradually with the growth rate slowing below trend rather than crashing into recession with output falling and unemployment rising rapidly.

Past experience shows the recessions of the 1980s and 1990s followed a similar pick up in inflation to that being experienced today. While there was much talk of achieving a soft landing during these periods, this was not to be.

First, inflation is becoming entrenched judging from the above analysis. Inflation is high and broad based whilst the labour market is tight. The rise in sticky prices is a particular concern as by their nature they move more slowly and take longer to come down.

As a result the task for central banks of bringing price rises back to target is made harder: monetary policy needs to tighten by more to bring demand into line with supply. In this environment a recession may actually be necessary to bring inflation down.

Second, monetary policy is a blunt tool. Milton Friedman’s theories have informed the monetary policies credited with taming inflation for most of the past four decades.

Central bank models give policymakers an indication of how long those lags are, but they are not precise. Judging how tight policy needs to be is difficult and the temptation is to keep raising rates until something breaks. This was very much the pattern in the 1980s and 1990s.

-  Monetary policy is tightening or set to tighten around the world in response to inflation, not just in the US. Global trade and external demand will be weaker as a result.

So the task of achieving a soft landing seems particularly challenging at present. Interest rates will still rise as they are starting from low levels – below the “equilibrium” rate.

When an economy is at full capacity this is the rate required in order to avoid either overstimulation (and possibly undue inflationary pressures) or under-stimulation (possibly resulting in economic contraction and the risk of deflation).

We are looking for a further five consecutive hikes in rates with the fed funds rate peaking at 2.5 – 2.75% at year end. Some would see this rate as being consistent with a neutral central bank policy.

LONDON, Jan 12 (Reuters) - Oil prices that rallied 50% in 2021 will power further ahead this year, some analysts predict, saying a lack of production capacity and limited investment in the sector could lift crude to $90 or even above $100 a barrel.

"Assuming China doesn"t suffer a sharp slowdown, that Omicron actually becomes Omi-gone, and with OPEC+’s ability to raise production clearly limited, I see no reason why Brent crude cannot move towards $100 in Q1, possibly sooner," said Jeffrey Halley, senior market analyst at OANDA.

However, many smaller producers can"t raise supply and others have been wary of pumping too much oil in case of renewed COVID-19 setbacks. read moreOPEC+ over/underperformance vs production quotas

JPMorgan analysts said in a note on Wednesday that they could see oil prices rising by up to $30 after the Energy Information Administration (EIA) and Bloomberg lowered OPEC capacity estimates for 2022 by 0.8 million barrels per day (bpd) and 1.2 million bpd respectively.

Rystad Energy"s senior vice-president of analysis Claudio Galimberti said if OPEC was disciplined and wanted to keep the market tight, it could boost prices to $100.

However, he said he did not consider this a likely scenario and while oil could "momentarily" reach above $90 this year, downward pressure on prices would come from production increases in Canada, Norway, Brazil and Guyana.

In a Reuters poll in late December, 35 economists and analysts forecast Brent would average $73.57 a barrel in 2022, about 2% lower than $75.33 consensus in November. The forecast shows the average price for the year, not the peak. read more

California’s crowds of fashion-forward OG Kush lovers will only need a tiny nug of multi-platinum rapper Wiz Khalifa’s designer indica hybrid “Khalifa Kush” to be nodding their heads in approval, humming, ‘so what we get druuunk, so what we smoke weeed.’

KK is the exact same, pure, cut of OG Kush hybrid Wiz brought to the Cali market back in the Before Times. Today it’s been tissue-cultured by Node Labs, craft-grown at scale by FloraCal Farms, and distributed by Continuum. Our fresh jar had packaging dates in January, from a December harvest. Huge—given how old stuff on shelves has gotten.

The Pittsburgh rapper started at 12, and fell in love with Cali weed on tour. Berner helped teach him exotics, made him a strain tester, locked in the KK, and together they launched it like a fashion line five, ancient years ago. That TGOD Mafia record slaps. “See You Again” is 11X platinum with 1.3 billion plays on Spotify.

We used a Mobius NUC bubbler with fresh water for best enjoying the lemony, piney taste and THC punch. There’s 2022 flavors like, say Sense’s Pink Certz (The Menthol x Grape Gasoline) that are more novel—but the power in KK is not debatable. Khalifa knows his customer: they stay higher than pigeon feet.

After one hit, I jumped up, yawned, got tingly and cool with sweaty hands, and had a nostalgic flash of paranoia and dry mouth. This particular terp and THC mix is so strong it punched completely through other highs. It’s a potential one-hitter quitter, so everyone, ski within your limits this winter.

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - APRIL 05: Stacks of lumber are offered for sale at a home center on April 05, ... [+]2021 in Chicago, Illinois. Lumber prices have more than tripled since last April due in part to COVID-19 restrictions hampering sawmills and low home mortgage rates driving new home construction, causing an increase in demand. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images)Getty Images

The price for random length lumber futures took an epic dive this year falling to around $509 per thousand board feet recently, down by almost two thirds from more than $1,460 in March, according to data collated by TradingEconomics.

Then move on to this year and the Federal Reserve began its war on inflation, whihc meant high borrowing costs for potential home buyers. Traders anticipated the Fed’s moves to raise interest rates and figured demand for wood, a key cost in new home building, would drop. It did and prices fell in advance of what looks like a near-complete halt to the U.S. housing market. I wrote about the bleak outlook for lumber late last year.

“Lumber prices lead economic activity in housing a year in advance,” writes Shawn Hackett, president of Hackett Advisors in a recent report.“We are optimistic that the US economy will be improving by late 2023 which means that lumber prices should be placing an important low now.”

Put another way, traders are bullish on lumber because they see a healthier economy in around a year’s time. That would likely coincide with lower inflation and hence lower interest rates. Both should help home buyers and home builders such as those tracked by the SPDR S&P Homebuilders(XHB

Of course, there are risks to playing a rebound. The Federal Reserve, which has been raising interest rates fast and will likely continue to do so, may overshoot. In other words, it could raise rates higher than is necessary to tame the inflation villain. If that happens, and the Fed doesn’t have a great record of policy timing, then the economy maybe in weaker shape than many forecast.
