    40 S&W Powders

    Another vote for Silhouette. You want to load it on the hotter side since pressure makes a big difference in a clean burn with it. But it's still very very soft and meters extremely well. Out of an M&P 40 I load anywhere from 6.0-6.2 grains (6.2 is MAX so work up to it) at 1.135 to 1.160...

    I use one (F1 Chrony $80 special) because I shoot USPSA and need the bullets to go a certain speed for points. When I make up plinking ammo though, realy no point. I'll load up a couple batches from starting load to midway, whichever one makes the gun fuction gets a couple hunderd made...

    Any references for Midwest Gun Works ( MGW )?

    I ordered their 22" deer barrel and Rifled choke tube for my Winchester 1300. This also comes with an improved choke tube and it said "rifle sights". Shipping was extremely fast. I think I ordered on a Monday night and they were on my door step Thursday afternoon. Everything was packaged...

    Who can identify this gun?

    I was on the Pedersoli website last week and saw this picture: When I clicked the link, it showed me a list of Pedersoli's "new" guns it was releasing. The fourth one down is not listed. I own the Coach gun, so I know it is not a coach gun. It isn't a Howdah. I emailed their...

    Pedersoli Coach SXS

    I also have been reading that most "recommended" loads for shotguns consist of 75 grains or less. However, on the barrel it says "89 grains and 1 1/4 shot" Is that a safe load? How about 89 grains with a 715 PRB, or does the PRB create a higher pressure and thus require a smaller amount of...

    Pedersoli Coach SXS

    Hi, I'm new to the forum (I've been following it for months, but finally registered) I recently purchased a Pedersoli Coach Shotgun with double barrels and percussion ignition. I'm completely new to BP shooting and so far have only taken about 10 shots with #5 lead shot and 777 (which is...
