loops I like leather loops as well. I don't have one of these, but they look like they would fit the bill. http://www.7-62precision.com/deep-concealment-tuckable-holster/ Enjoy!

trim I trim revolver cases before I load them the first time. I get a nice consistent crimp that way. I keep batches of brass together and they seem to stay consistent through multiple loadings. Enjoy! Jeff

calibers? I have a classic turret and load a variety of calibers on it. Extra turrets are cheap and changing back and forth is fairly quick and easy. I don't have experience with any progressive presses but it may be something for you to consider. Enjoy!

Longer is ok, shorter can raise pressures. I load my 230 grain LRN at 1.265" and it leaves a little of the ridge showing. My favorite is 6.0 grains of Unique.

Montana or Missouri I mostly shoot lead from Missouri Bullet but if you want a jacketed bullet Montana Gold makes a 240 gr JSP. Enjoy!

D&T A 336 in 35 Rem, with Ballard rifling that has not been drilled & tapped for a scope is harder to find than a later model in 30-30 so that will tend to push the price up. A Gunbroker.com search for guns that sold will allow you to match the rifle and condition with what somebody really...

I'm wanting to take my Winchester Model 25 turkey hunting. 12 ga, full choke & chambered for 2 3/4 only. I tried some Winchester, buffered, copper-plated lead in #4 and even at 25 yds it was kind of loose. I would like to try some high density loads of various shot size to see if it tightens...

I don't have either of those but I would suggest checking on the price and availability of extra turrets as well. Enjoy!

I have a model 49, the all steel bodyguard, I've never even held an LCR. A little extra weight when shooting those +P rounds can be a good thing. Of course I'm a steel & wood guy and admit to bias. I would suggest shooting both if at all possible. If you shoot both well carrying the...

Sounds great, thanks!

Looks like it's about time for a new jacket and I'm looking at the Coronado Americana. Dear-Sweet-Wife has one of their purses and has been happy with it. Can anybody comment on it's quality and longevity? Thanks!

Pretty Good I had a pretty good yesterday. Started by closing on a house we've been trying to sell for two years, a nice lunch out and movie with the family, then picked up a new Durango for Dear Sweet Wife. Home again and there's a PO notice that I have packages from Montana Gold and...

Whoo Hoo! Just got back from the post office with a box from Montana Gold and two from Missouri Bullets. I apologized to the clerk about the package weight but that I can't buy those around here. His reply was, "You sure got your money's worth." I agree. Y'all even had in stock the Lewis...

I've loaded w231 at near minimum charges and it's a real powder puff, even out of a J frame. You might consider starting at min. then increasing loads in 1/2 grain intervals to find something she is comfortable with. My little S&W is pretty low mileage and leaded something awful with cast...

Already have a 1200 in 20ga and a 1300 Defender, today I added a Winchester Model 25. Cleaned the bore, did a function/safety check then headed out back with a handful of shells. Loading the magazine was a different kind of experience but I got the hang of it after a little practice. It's the...
