Car guy here, not a great analogy. Given the same car (power and weight) , a quicker 60 foot time (time to cover the first 60 feet of the track for you non-drag racing people) will result in a slower MPH (terminal velocity) but a quicker elapsed time (time to cover the 440 yards). This...

As of now just one. 9mm. What I shoot the most. I just got a set of .38spl/.357 dies two weeks ago. Have brass and powder, no projectiles or Mag primers. I got into reloading as a curiosity and I have a .270-08 in the family. Loads for that are always going to be custom and $$$ or a...

I picked up the ABC's of Reloading and Lyman 49th as my first two books. I would have to say either or would be sufficient. While you do pick up little bits of different information from each source, it does get a little repetitive. As for bullet weight differences and load data, my...

Via my Lyman 49th book, 115 gr JHP bullets, Titegroup Bullseye 700X W231 Unique Power Pistol N340 SR-3756 True Blue HS6 AA#7 Blue Dot are suitable for 115 gr projectiles. Doesn't mean others aren't. Most of what I've loaded after some work up has been 124gr Montana Gold CMJ over 4.8gr...

AK47, that is all. Favorite gun = Sig P225, first pistol I ever bought. Gun = AK47.

I looked at the Lee Loaders, Lee hand held press, Lee bench mounted single stage presses, Hornady single stage and Lock and Load AP, and Dillon SDB, 550 and 650 presses. My hopes and dreams told me I wanted the Dillon 650 or an Hornady LNL AP. Got a $100 gift card from work and tossed in a...

Yes. In both ways. First actual fire arm (not BB gun) I can remember shooting was a Ruger Single Six in .22LR, I think 6-7 years old with my dad. Couldn't hit the broad side of a 24 pack "Pepsi cube". This gun is still in the family. First gun I paid for was a Mosin Nagant 91/30. Still...

7.62x54R 91/30 Mosin was the first I paid for. A Ruger Single Six .22LR pistol is the first I can remember shooting.

At this point I recognize where the term came from. Simply shooting "from your / off your, hands" or "off your hands" makes sense. As a person trained by a pistol shooter, it meant something different to me until now.

I kind of though this would be the response. I learned shooing from a primarily pistol shooter. So to me, shooting "off hand" is pulling the trigger with one's non-dominate hand. I've seen the term used enough by rifle shooters and hunters that I had to start asking myself "why are all these...

What is your definition of "shooting off hand"?

Forgot exactly how I did it last time. Been a couple years, I don't shoot the Mosin's much so 440 rounds lasts a while. I think it involved a vise grips (fulcrum) and pry bar.

I don't simply because I haven't made it to that point. I've made only about 500 rounds of 9mm so far. All have worked properly, except my first 20 rounds that where loaded fairly light.

"joeschmoe Do you have a permit for that? " I don't, but I'm not hunting Sasquatch. I guess buck shot might work OK too.

I picked up a pair of Walker's Alpha muffs for hunting this year. $50 range at fleet farm. I was happy enough with them, 24nrr, and the electronics do OK with letting you hear but cutting out the loud bits. I am a fan of hearing protection, I'll wear it running the lawn mower. I used to...

Punt gun, with slugs.

I won my first shot gun from a $40 raffle. Mossberg 930 Waterfowl. It was valued at $450 at the time, I could have taken $350 cash instead of the gun. I remember the first time I shot a pump shotgun. I had been out a number of times shooting sporting clays with my friend and hadn't cleaned...

I just got a bullet puller. Never used it to take apart anything I've made. But I've only done about 500 rounds of 9MM so far, shot 250 of them. I picked up a Lee 90030 kit. I like it, it works. I want a nicer scale. If I had your budget, I probably would have gone with a Hornady or...

http://www.amazon.com/Lee-Precision-50th-Anniversary-Reloading/dp/B00162RM3E I started with this kit and a 3 die set of 9MM. For $155 + components you are making ammo. $20+/- for a pound of powder, Primers, ~$4 for a 100 if you want to keep it "cheap" (paying more per unit but laying...

I'll add that I've never used anything but the cheap wallyworld kits (got one too tight and bent a rod) and have no idea how it compares to anything else. 3 years of shooting and cleaning later, 2 kits. I'm just starting to consider "stepping up" to a one piece rod. Those of that have done...
