N 320/330/340 all measure reliably in the Dillon powder measures. Have used them often.

life's too short for dogs that don't hunt. cars that don't work, and guns that don't make you happy when you shoot. Unless it's got sentimental value. sell it and move on.

I remember when Bernie Goetz made that call. Arguably saved his life. but sparked quite the debate afterwards.

another vote for the Giraud here. I actually not only paid for it, but was able to pay for a 308 one as well by "renting" them to a few other reloaders at my local club. in the end, it's only $100 and change. I've spent a lot more and gotten way less for my money.

can confirm BE-86 works well in all of them. Can also confirm 4.0 grains of be86 in 45acp under a 200 swc is enough to cycle several different 1911s and still provide reasonable accuracy within 50 feet. We won't ask how I know that.

oh good. I'm not the only one with that problem. I thought I was crazy. you can get all 100 if you pull the end pickup cap out a bit.

I can confirm a very slight difference in size in Ginex vs CCI military large rifle. When I load the primers into the tubes for the dillon, the ginex stack is taller. not a lot but consistently taller.

my thoughts exactly. I want this done right. not like It's going to be easy to fix if there's an "oops" I had looked at CGW but I didn't see anything specific to the DWX.

I pulled the trigger on a DWX and am going to have the slide milled for a 507 comp. Now it's just a matter of finding out if anyone has any experience or info on those that advertise slide milling. Anyone have knowledge of places that do milling?

Sometimes it's unavoidable, but I actively discriminate when possible against any business/location that advertises/posts anything against 2A or carrying.

shot them both as well. the 365XL came home with me.

a bit off topic There's a company out there called Standard Manufacturing that sells a 1911 in a blue that's the equal of my 70s colt royal. (in fact I think it's a little nicer) Just bought one and I'm blown away by the blue.

same. carry is just a part of everyday routine. Whenever possible, I simply don't go places why deny it.

Some sort of gauge seems to be the simple solution - If you pick up a lot of range leavings - mark the brass you've already checked so that at least the first run through is the only long one. the 650 sorts them pretty easily. stops the priming arm right now. but the small primer cases are...

This is a different take. My buddy came over to load some 9mm, and we opened the bottle of JW blue he got me for christmas. I understand why people pay that kind of money now.
