I would agree with this also! Two of the key words in those two paragraphs is "load development" and " experiment" [experimentation]. I know a bullseye shooter that likes a pure lead bullet sized to .452 with 4.0gr of bullseye. He shoots hundreds of rounds without any leading. But he also...

Hardcast in a high pressure round. Look at whats offered from bullet makers. In 9mm and 40 its all hardcast for a reason. If you look at 38 special and .45 you will see it from 8 to 18 to suite the pressures of the loader. You can find some softer bullets for 38-40 rounds. They will work in...

Dig a hole for your bench. Much better idea than wrecking your ceiling.

I also shoot 10mm through my glock 20 just for target practice and just to shoot the gun with cheap loads. I don't push them hard. 10mm has a max pressure of about 37k psi. Mine are soft 40 loads. You will always have some gas going around the bullet. Increasing the pressure will increase...

3.5gr of Bullseye, haven't loaded Unique in 9mm in quite a while but I would think 3.8-4.0gr

I've never used the lee because i did not want to buy different shell holders. I bought the RCBS and use my shell holders. I prime 25k/year and love it, all different calibers too. Great feel and even crimped cases can be primed with it. A friend has the RCBS Universal but all he primes is...

Everything here has been covered but I want to emphasize the loads you use. Since lead is softer and gas goes around the bullet, all barrels can lead up. My 1911's lead up more than my glocks do but I load for lead. Since you are new to this perhaps you should post your powder and bullets and...

Many moons ago I was thinking of buying a conversion barrel for my glock 20. I did like others and sent some "dummy" 40 rounds to lone wolf and they informed me that they were "out of spec" for their barrels. I informed them that they chambered in every 40 barrel I had and every 40 barrel any...

Like I said, it should work right out of the package. You are not alone with your frustrations with their barrels. Cool. Shoot a hundred or so and check for leading. Make yourself comfortable that its not. Don't know how much you shoot but I shoot hundreds of rounds between cleaning...

Hmmmm? Maybe i was vague but I will spell it out. My solution is to sell the "out of spec piece of crap" barrel and use the stock barrel. Use the money and buy more bullets.

I hear this all the time. It should work/feed right out of the package. Simply put: " Out of spec crap"!! Why buy a lone wolf barrel with a super tight chamber and that won't feed for FMJ bullets when its advertised for lead??????? Sounds like the owner makes as quite a bit fixing his own...

"Red hot" huh? Its going to burn through the holster and your cargos? Good early morning laugh. I shoot fast with titegroup too, see no difference compared to bullseye, 231 as far as heat and scalding of my hip. Maybe its my underwear.

Try shooting some in your stock barrel. If they work then you know its the lone wolf barrel, if they don't then you know its your load or the bullet. Don't use a factory crimp die with lead either, it squishes the bullet skinnier/smaller diameter. Oh, and I also shoot 155 swc in my glock...

\ I've been using titegroup in my glock and sig for years and I get great accuracy with both lead and fmj. Its a great powder.

Same thing happened to me except a little worse. I never cleaned or lubed mine and the spring did not returned the disc all the way back to refill completely. I never loaded a squib but came quite close as it got worse. You have to take it apart and clean it just like you do your dies every...
