    444 case length question

    I just received an email from Hornady saying not to reload brass used for flex tip with anything other than flex tips. It would seem that the slightly shorter case will create to much pressure. I'm guessing it's kind of like loading 357's in a 38 case.

    Want another S&W - thinking about these

    Here's another vote for the Model 15. Personally I'd never spend the money on a new gun, even if I could afford one. And gun shops are full of good used guns looking for a new home.....Tom
