If crimping is the problem could I use colt dies and work up to 460. I'm trying to save a few dollars and only get one set.

I just got a S&W 460 revolver. It will take 45 colt 454 or 460 S&W. All use a .452 bullet. The only difference I can tell is the case length. Can I reload all three with the S&W 460 dies like I can reload 38 and 357 with same dies?

I am new to realoading and need some help. I got some 45 cal 200grain flat point bullets from a friend so I can get started reloading. I can't find a length overall for the reload. How do you determine length overall when you can't find the bullet in the reloading books?

As I have grown older I need reading glasses. While shooting I have trouble seeing the sights without the glasses but can't see the target with them. How do you handle the problem?

22 Conversion Kits I got the new 22 conversion kit for my sig p220. It is well made. Has slide, barrel , recoil rod, spring, and one mag. Mine shoots great. Easy to exchange with old slide. Makes the gun lighter. Less recoil is nice for us older guys with painfull hands. I have shot 400...

I just found a new in the box Vektor SP 1 ultra with a Lynx red dot scope. The gun looks great. They are asking $1200 for it. The gun was made in 1997. Blue book of gun values said it's MSRP was $2195. Can anyone tell me about this gun. How does it shoot.

I plan on hunting and league shooting with it.

Thanke for the help. Sounds like 5" is the way to go

I just ordered a Smith and Wesson 22cal Model 41 target pistol. I want to put a red dot scope on it for about $150. Any recommendations?

I would like to compete and may place a red dot scope

I am going to buy a Smith&Wesson model 41. Should I get a 5" or 7" barrel. What are the pros and cons of the two.

My M&P 9c was one of the first to be produced. After about 500 rounds I started to have the mag release when firing. I was shooting all +P ammo. I have a large hand and it occured with all four of my mags but more frequently with the ones with the finger rest After replacing the mag catch...

I got a Styer six weeks ago for $360 out the door new. I felt for that price I couldn't go wrong. It is a great gun. Have over 900 rounds through mine and never one problem. I have sigs S&W Glocks and it is as good as any of them.

Steyr M-A1 40. Great gun for 340 dollars. Shoots great. I have 400 rounsd through it with out a single problem.

A wife of a sick friend gave some 9mm ammo. I shot some and it woked fine but when I read the box it was steel jacketed and had corrosive primers. If you shoot steel jacketed ammo is it harmfull to your gun and do you need to do any special cleaning after shooting corrosive primers? It...
