My presses and dies are Lee. They work well enough for my needs, so why pay more? My peripherals (cleaning, trickling, etc.) are whoever has the best dollar to value ratio at the time. I like Hornady rifle bullets, and Summers Enterprises lead pistol bullets. Powder is whatever works the best...
My favorite load is 28 grains of IMR3031 pushing a 170 grain Hornady flat point. I inherited a can of IMR3031 from my wife's grandfather, and it proved to be the most accurate powder in my son's JM 336.
Took the day off work to take my sons (15 & 13) to the range, since it opened for the year on Wednesday. 13 took his Henry and S&W M&P15 .22LRs. 15 took his JM Marlin 336 .30-30. I took my M700 .30/06, Beretta M9, and Shadow 2. So, when we got home, I sorted brass (there was a lot), while 15...
Mom didn't want me to play with toy guns, so I wasn't allowed to buy them. So, I made them. Blocks of wood, a saw, staple gun, and electrical tape were my best friends. I started hunting with my Dad the year I turned 12, but I was 15 before I got my first BB gun. The whole "forbidden fruit"...
First firearm I ever bought (2002) was a Beretta 92FS. Sold it in 2005 because it was too big to comfortably carry. That might have had something to do with the fact that I was young and stupid, carrying it sans holster ala Martin Riggs. Last year, I bought an M9, since I wanted the original...
No experience with BE-86 in 10mm, but I used HP-38 in 9mm, 40S&W, and 45ACP. I switched to AutoComp for SD loads in the 40S&W, because it was the available powder with the best velocity. It might be worth a try in the 10mm, as well.
I was interested at the beginning, but it sounds, more and more, like someone has made up his mind that shooting is not worth the trouble anymore, and simply wants to run up a post count in order to gain access to the BST forum...
Well, I bought 3 pounds by accident. I had been watching for MATCH Rifle for about a year, since I haven't seen H4895 in 4. Graf's advertised a bunch of powder available, and I had a CRS moment and bought the wrong one. My R700 .30/06 hated the Precision Rifle, but my son's Howa1500 .30/06 liked...
I have also noticed PMC shooting half of the group size compared to WWB, in multiple ARs. Never messed with TAC, but have had good results with H4895, CFE223, and Shooters World Precision Rifle in .223
Finally doesn't look like it is completely made of junk and scraps (which it is). Just got done installing a new top. This one is level, flat, and absent of holes from constantly moving presses trying to find an acceptable setup.
Treated myself to a new bench top. This is the first money I have spent on the bench itself, as it was originally built with pallets and scrap lumber. The toolbox was unnecessary after changing jobs, and the refrigerator was a broken one replaced at the shop I was working at, so I didn't feel...
I want one in the pistol, one carried as a reload, and one spare for range ammo or if something happens to one of the primaries. I have more than that for some, but 3 is my minimum comfort level.
