    SW PLUS vs USED GLOCK 19

    I would first contact S&W about your CSX and the trigger issue I have a 686 that had the same problem contacted them they sent me a prepaid mailing label. Sent it back to them and when I got it back the trigger was beautiful but if you just don’t like the CSX get the Equalizer for a little over...

    American Reloading

    I had pretty much same problem you experienced with Fiocchi but at the time I was just glad to have primers. I am currently using Unis Ginex SP& LP primers and have not had one failure to fire , like you I do find they are a little softer. I am going to keep using them until domestic ones...

    How much would you over pay?

    I used to overpay for guns I then stopped doing it because I had bought one and a week later I found the same one locally for $300.00 less .. I was so angry with myself that I had rushed into buying it that I have never done it again, but as my father used to say To each his own.

    148 gr DEWC

    I always wondered what the difference was between the two brasses I have never been able to get a good explanation on it . I bought a NOE PTX expander die for 38 special but quit using it as I was having problems with it getting stuck in the case now I understand why. I may have to try it...

    148 gr DEWC

    You are correct Model 14’s have very tight tolerances mine is the same way some .358 DEWC bullets are tight in it that is why I use Precision Delta LHBWC bullets. I have a set of pin gauges when I measured my cylinder on my Model 14 it was a tight .357 inches it is why they are so accurate.

    Beware of Vihtavuori Load Data.

    I shoot a lot of 38 special long barrels and short,, if you want a soft shooting load get some 148 grain LHBWC or DEWC bullets and some faster burning powder like Bullseye , Ram Shot Competition , AA#2 or any equivalent W231 and W244 work well also. This will give you a very nice shooting load...

You load is not to hot , I have attached this from VV’s reloading app if you don’t have it download it I think it is one...
