Not difficult Did you also get a Lee charge die for the 4-holer? These look like a regular die but holds a Lee powder funnel in their top end - you then raise the case up to the die, drop your charge into the funnel, and voila! - all done and no spills. I use an old film canister (those...

Well... Several years ago, while working on a project just to the south of Trenton, I was compelled to put a halt to 2 crazed snowmen bent on causing major disruption. A double-barreled 12 gauge from 10 feet out - both barrels at once, loaded with one ounce of 7-1/2 shot - cut them cleanly in...

Actually, I'm pretty sure he's looking for parts for the MEC. Willing to trade brass reloading stuff for MEC parts. 1776J, LOTS of MEC parts available in a lot of places - not to worry. And the 600jr. just might be the very best place for you to begin reloading shotshells, as it is a...

67% are Heck, No. The People are speaking.

I've had some real nice loads using Accurate 2460 with 125, 150, and 175 gr. bullets. 55.2 grs. of 2460, 125 gr. Hornady SP's, 2-1/2" groups (iron sights) @ 3200fps; 49.5 grs. 2460, 150 gr. Hornady SP, 2-1/2"+ groups @ 2840 fps; 47.7 grs. 2460, 175 gr. Sierra SP, 2"+ groups @ 2520fps. These...

Troubling.... New to the forum, so I beg your pardons for my probable faux pas to come. I have a 27-year-old son, who was near-fatally injured in a motorcycle accident 2-1/2 years ago. Among the plethora of injuries, the most severe was traumatic brain injury; the technical diagnosis was/is...

Well, I didn't read thru all replies, and have a question that's ringing in my head........ Just how many years ago was the crime committed?

Be aware that the OAL they're giving you is a maximum for working in mags. Shorter is ok, you might see some degradation of accuracy with a bigger jump to the rifling....but then again you might not. You're OK to push 'em down to the cannelure.

I have been using Accurate Arms 2460 with Hornady 125 gr., Sierra 150 gr., and Sierra 175 gr. for many years. 125's run out at near 3300 fps; the 150's on the hi end of 2800fps, and the 175's around 2550fps. Load weights are comparable to others and accuracy is excellent - 2-1/2" to 3" with...

Quit your bellyaching. Get your butt to the range and rediscover just why you go in the first place. Stop looking for enlightenment and learn to enjoy the simple.

Is this guy for real? Some editor PAID him to write this pap? If so, then the editors don't read what's written either. BTW, at this moment in time the picture to the right in the article says "would stricter gun control help prevent tragedies?" - and stands at 59% NO.

Honest, Rembrandt, the iron sights work really, really well, out to distances that might surprise you. Give it a try. :)
