I've looked high and low and can not find a "no thumb-break" paddle holster for my 96 Elite II. Seems like someone would offer one by now. Please help. Dan

Thanks to all for the help, I now have a place to start. Dan

I want to start reloading for my mini-14 (.223) and since the powders listed are not what I already have, I could use some help picking a powder and load. Something that throws good, (not pencil lead). Example, my 308 loves H380 and it throws great. I plan to start with the Sierra 52 gr...

Thanks so much Jim, this will let him know where to start. Dan

My son-in-law just inherited a 38-40 lever action rifle and wants to get a revolver in the same caliber. I've looked high and low and done searches but can't come up with anything. Is anybody making revolvers in this caliber. Thanks Dan

I also have a Bersa 45 and would be very interested in the answer to your question. I've occasionally felt the same delay going into battery although it has not failed to chamber yet. Dan

Thanks guys, the very very light tapper crimp did the trick. much better groups. Dan

Thanks Wally, I'll check it out. Dan

I've been having ejection problems. It will pull the empty brass half way out and jam the next round under it. I replaced the ejector, spring and pin and it started to tear chunks out of the base but still not eject. So I replaced the barrel, it is somewhat better but will still fail to eject...

Thanks, I'll reset my setting die and try power pistol again. Dan

Reloading 40 cal for the Elite II is giving me a fit. First, it won't shoot lead of any kind or any load without leading badly. Second, now that I'm using plated bullets, it won't lead but they are not accurate. With jacketed bullets it will hold about 3" at 25yds, with plated it will only hold...

Thanks rde, they said they would send the highest rear sight they had. Dan

My P97 shoots about 6" low with both full and target loads at 25 yds. Have been looking for a couple of hours for an adjustable sight. I need one that I can install myself. I'm sure someone here has already been though this and can help me out. Thanks, Dan

Bersa update Went to the range Saturday to test the new extractor parts. Turns out that besides the extractor, it also needs a new barrel. After many thousands of rounds, I've worn out the barrel and even with the new parts tearing chunks out of the brass, the old barrel won't let the brass go...

I've had extractor trouble that just got worse as time went on. It would pull the case half way out and jam the next round under it. What I found when I replaced the Extractor, pin, and spring was that the new spring was different. Smaller in diameter and I'm guessing that the new one is the...
