Anybody know of a commercial caster who does Hi-Tek coated bullets in AZ? The guy who's bullets I've been using for a couple of years is...
I do NOT ever recommend the Lee FCD with cast bullets. It has it's place for sure, but cast bullets isn't it. Yeah, I know, plenty of people...
You want to expand it juuuuusssst enough that the bullet drops in. One thing with cast bullets, either coated or lubed...you'll save yourself a...
It's a great powder for what you listed. Will work in all of those for plinking loads. For 45 Colt I like 5.7 grains for both 200 and 250 coated...
Now that I'm on my computer and can take a good look at the pics, I think NMexJim nailed it. Your crimping before the bullet is completely...
Too much case lube. Blocks the vent, basically creates hydraulic pressure that dimples shoulder. Use less lube, and if you're using something...
Guestimate is certainly multitudes better than swagging.:rofl:
That is an odd start load for TG for a non-jacketed bullet to me. I'm not saying it's over pressure at all.....it's just hotter than it needs to...
Look for Lovex powders. Canada has a Lovex importer, you'll just have to find what label they sell under.

That bullet combination has more load data in manuals, online, everywhere, than probably any other load. There are loads from mild to wild....
The Shooter's World powders are all Lovex powders, made by the explosia factory in the Czech Republic. They get them in huge bulk lots, and...
This is a perfect application for Buffalo Rifle (very close to AA5744). I use 25.5 grains under a 405 Hi-Tek coated cast bullet. Out of a...
Meh, I've decided the need for a can that comes apart for cleaning is more a myth perpetrated by the makers of cans that come apart for cleaning,...
I've shot quite a few. The Gallant 220, the ACME 265 ds, and the MBC 245. All coated. Hundreds, maybe thousands. All sub in a 10 or a 7.5. No...

They are fine, but their boxes are sucky and a pain. Really though, sounds like your pockets are a little stretched or over swaged. You should...
They do. It's called 9mm Mak

I will say one thing that I find scary. So I have my brass prep automated. I do 5,000 at a time. When I do 9mm, first it gets rollsized,...
