Thanks guys, I took my two px4's apart and checked by dropping the cartridge in the chamber. Sure glad I did. The sub-compact has a much bigger chamber/freebore than the Inox. I am loading them at 1.1065" so that they will fit either gun. These are my first pistols, I have always had revolvers...

I have a few Missouri 9mm Small Ball bullets that I want to handload. My manual give a coal of 1.125", this just barely puts the bullet in past the "lube grove". Does this sound right? Thanks

Didn't happen without PICTURES!!!

DeepSouth, what is the link supposed to show us?

If you know your limitations as well as your equipment, there is nothing wrong with it. In fact, there is a very popular website, LongRangeHunting.com, that is a wealth of information on this type of hunting. Granted, it is not for everyone. But, I would not criticize others without first...

Actually, Milo-2, I got an email from Redding and they stated that the size is 5/16". I have a small 5/16" piece that fits in a 1/4'" socket that I use with an extension.

Do you know what rifle the once fired brass came out of? It sounds like your brass came from a chamber with very generous dimensions and the new rifle is perhaps set to near min SAMI specs.

I love mine, I have complete hearing loss in my left ear (stroke) and partial loss in my right, if not for my "unfair" advantage I would of missed my spike elk coming down the mountain 100yrds up from me. Luckly I was able to watch him come through the brush and stop about 45yrds from me. I was...

I do have a two sets of allen wrenches, just not the size I needed, so I got two that I will keep on the bench at all times.

How many reloading manuals do you have and have you read them? Every powder manufacturer has a website that will describe the properties and burn rates of their powders. I have chosen one manufacturer for all my powder needs, less confusing for me that way. Good luck and be safe.

Can't you adjust the die to give you more crimp? The ones that I use allow me to.

Almost all reloading manuals will give you oal specs. Do you guys have any manuals, if you don't STOP everytning until you get some and read them completly!

Thanks guys, off to the parts store I go.

I am wanting to change out the die holder on my new t-7 press but don't have an allen wrench that will fit, do any of you know the correct size needed? Also, was there supposed to be an allen wrench in the box of the new press? Thanks, Ray
