    Am I the only one who distrusts the NRA?

    To those that want to talk about how the NRA does nothing in MD and other states that passed anti-gun laws you are wrong. The NRA spent considerable amounts of time and effort flooding every hearing in md on the gun laws with pro 2a supporters and made sure to get the base mobalized. Do you...

    My Response to the UN Arms Treaty

    My basic and I do mean basic understanding is that the UN Arms Treaty will not effect us citizens but that it will generate a noticable increase in burocracy for manufacturers that export ammo and arms. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

    Stop wasting you steel cases

    Being a user of ultrasonic cleaners for case cleaning steel is something I tested but did not feel safe using after seeing rust develop on the case during drying. So I will leave the reloading of steel cases to someone else.

    A 100 years or more?

    It's nice to see another fan of Adam black. For modern firearms or classics it is all the same interns of care. Now it's just easier to clean since we don't use corrosive primers or powder much. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

    gauging wear on 38 spl brass

    I seated some bullets and the initial drop in produced the problem but then taking them out and putting them back in it could not be replicated, I know more wrinkles to the problem. and the oal is very consistent at 1.53 inch with a variation of .004 inches

    gauging wear on 38 spl brass

    Thanks for the tips guys and I am probably just going to budget in more time in my case prep time to clean primer pockets post ultrasonic cleaning, because I know the gun was relatively clean as I had just spent 10 minutes cleaning it before heading out to the range.

    gauging wear on 38 spl brass

    Im using a lee 3 die set so it does the seat and crimp in one go. I'm using a S&W model 10 in double action, if i pull the hammer back just enough to rotate the cylinder once or twice it gets smother but is still sticky. im using 3.8 grain of win 231, with small magnum primers with a 125...

    gauging wear on 38 spl brass

    During my last trip to the range I noticed some of my 38 spl reloads were not sitting all the way in the cylinder. They were a sitting a hair or two further out of the cylinder than they should and made it so the action would start to drag and bindup a little. This is the first time this has...

    Justice officials in "Panic Mode" over failed Gun Program

    IF you believe the concept that their goal was to set up a RECO (sp) case then the only screw up, which admittedly the screw up was massive was that they didn't let the Mexican Gov know what was going on and who to track.
