    Powder dragout using Imperial Sizing Die Wax inside case mouths

    Seeking more uniform shoulder setback, I switched from graphite to Imperial for lubing case mouth interiors, and installed a Redding Carbide Button. Although the Carbide Button may eliminate the need for lubing mouth interiors, I decided to use a little Imperial on the first 20 or so rounds...

    FTF with N330 under 125gr HAP in G34

    I am developing a load using Vihtavuori N330 under 125gr Hornaday HAP bullets In new Starline brass. I used an OAL of 1.1 after finding that 1.125 touched the rifling in a Glock G19, G26, and G34. That OAL passes an L. E. Wilson case gauge, and will both drop out of and spin in all three...
