I use the method when I try a new bullet in 357sig. Normally once I get the ogive just outside the case mouth, it normally dictates what the COL...
Thanks for the information. I am still deciding on the COL, but it looks like I will go with 1.135" for now. I still want to load a few more dummy...
That is another test I normally do. I take a case upside down and put over a completed round. The ogive is inside the case if the cases touch.
My purpose is to find the most accurate load. I have my own internal competition where I try and improve on the best grouping I have per...
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing the Hornady's load data. This is making me reevaluate the range I want to test with Powder Pistol. The COL they show is a bit...
Thanks for the explanation. I am loading RN bullets, but will remove the 1.169" COL from my original post to prevent any confusion. I was not...
This is from the Hodgdon load data: [ATTACH]
No, it is not as bad as primers, but I did put an order in in October, and finally today I was able to pick up a 1,000 RMR 115gr FMJ RN bullets....
I like CFE Pistol since I have tried and used it for all my pistol cartridges. It is a good powder to have. Currently my favorite load for 357sig...
I have not done a lot of load of 9mm workup with Titegroup, but following is what I have done so far using the RMR 124gr TC MW bullet. I did not...
Interesting topic. Fitting in the case gauge and passing the plunk test does not mean it will cycle reliably. You should do a full cycle and...
I load 40s&w Berry's FP bullets to a COL of 1.125", but to me your COL looks longer. It could just be the picture, but I would verify the COL...
What are the issues with the primed cases (not fully loaded)? You should be able to just pull the bullets from the fully loaded cases. Leave it...
I use the RCBS trickler and the Lee dipper (and my own dippers) when I do load development. Basically what I do is decide on my load range,...
Excellent! Looks like you have experimented and found what works best for you. I have actually changed the way I use my FCD when crimping 357sig....
Interesting topic, which made me start to think about the powder that work best for me in multiple cartridges. When it comes to ratings we...
My most accurate load in 9mm is also Power Pistol. The load is 5.6gr using the RMR 124gr FP MW bullet. This load results in around .65" grouping...
I have been reload 40s&w and 357sig for a while now, but I have only had bulging issues with brass I received. The 357sig issues I have resolved...
When I weigh every charge I check inside every case before seating the bullet, especially when I use my Lee classic turret.
