Okay, here is the question - for my son's birthday (he just turned 2) his great grandmother gave me $1000 to invest for him mainly for colege and left the choice up to me. In the past we've bought him silver. However, I was thinking something a little different a few things - In...

just incase somebody else ask the same question - I used 7.0 grains for n340 and seated the bullet well under min OAL the book says to, and they shot just fine. I loaded about 12 from the longest that would fit in my gun (still under min OAL) and worked my way down to the crimping groove, Min...

after reading all the suggestions and actually looking at it.... i've decided I can not do a good enough job and would devalue my gun, nor do I want to drop $50 to get it professionally done. Ill just keep hand polishing it see how far that can take me-

Hmm lots of conflicting opinions. Wouldn't a light scrub of 2000 grain wet dry paper give me a better shine and lower the risk of damaging my gun?

well, I have taken the gun apart (the gp100 at least) when I resanded the grips, i went ahead and took the hammer and triggers out along with the cylinder to get a good cleaning and polished it. But I normally do not take them off to polish, I just polish the area the grips are about 10 times in...

well, I was going to carry the security six, and the gp100 is a truck gun/beside the bed gun - so it will be the one that I want shiney. So the main thing to worry about is over sanding the edges and the cylinder. Also where the hinge for the cylinder is, avoid that area. I might try and...

what kind of holster, I am in need of one :)

Hi, i have spent the last 2 weeks polishing my 2 stainless steel revolvers.... ive washed my rags twice now. I keep getting black stuff off but it does not seem to be getting noticeably shinier. I really want it to be mirror finished almost. http://www.teslamap.com/public/polish/index.html...

anyways, basically the jist of it was my scale isnt the best and roams + or - 1-2 grains randomly. So i always try and load 2 above min or 2 below max. normally I find the center and make that load so I dont have to worry about it. Soon ill be getting one of those new Lyman Gen 5 or 6 powder...

hmm did my post get deleted or computer just playing tricks on me.

Okay, so I asked a friend of mine to check his books (i only own 2 , lee and lyman and neither had a load for my bullet) and he emailed me a load for V-n340. So i loaded 7.2 grains of v-n340 into a 357 case with the 180gr XTP hornady bullet. Well he emails me back quickly and says that was a...
