You need to look at the Ruger factory videos. They have upgreaded them and you should not have a problem IF you follow the directions step by step. They're under the "tech tips" menu tag. http://www.ruger.com/resources/videos.html

No problems with a LWD ported barrel in a G23. Go for it.

The issue of bulging cases is Glock's chamber. Get an after market barrel and be happy.

Check the powder maker online sites for load data. AA, Hodgdon, Alliant, etc. http://www.castpics.net/LoadData/Freebies/default.html Unfortunately Alliant has cut out much of the old lead load data but if you use Alliant powders this link may be of some use...

One fired 5.56 brass is readily available free or cheaper than .223. Removing the primer crimp isn't a major issue. It's a one time operation and all you need is a $10 primer pocket reamer.

The 2000 Alliant manual clearly shows max 6.0 gr Red Dot for a 250 gr lead bullet in 45 Colt. http://www.castpics.net/LoadData/Freebies/RM/Alliant.html

Crossbreed Supertuck Deluxe works for me......... http://www.crossbreedholsters.com/SuperTuckDeluxe/tabid/90/List/0/ProductID/1/CategoryID/1/Level/1/Default.aspx?SortField=ProductName,ProductName

I'm gearing up for bulk AR15 .223 shooting & reloading. Do the RCBS X-Dies work as claimed and eliminate case trimming or are they just another fad ? If they work, would the small base X-Die be better for an AR15 ? So far I have had no problems using a standard FL sizing die.

Where's the duct tape ?

If the Spent Primer Catcher Chute is working properly, put a piece of metal tape or masking tape on the far edge of the spent primer cup to bridge the gap to the press frame. That modification seems to catch most of the errant primer for me and I only have an occasional miss.

I know with open/iron sights its best to sight at 6:00. Is it better to sight a red dot at center or 6:00 ? Why ? None of the Bullseye sites address this issue.

I've heard the "WFT" works fine.... http://www.littlecrowgunworks.com/wft.html I use the Lee zip trimmer system and it seems to work OK.

Last fall I priced out what the difference would be in reloading 12 GA 3-1 1/8-8 Dove loads. I discovered, due to the exceedingly high cost of shot, I could at best save only 25-30 cent a box reloading over comparable quality factory loads on sale at Cabela's or WMT. I ended up just buying...

Herco

Give Dillon spray lube a try.........

IMHO using the old RCBS lube is giant step back wards. I used that sticky junk and a messy lube pad for decades until I discovered spray lube.

Thanks all for the info. I'll be loading large batches of .223 once I get a good load and some .243 and .30-06 in between. I've have very good luck with Dillon spray lube and have never had a stuck case. I heard problems using Hornady One Shot lube.

How does one run bottle neck cases, that require lube, through the loading process using a casefeeder? I'm debating whether to add a casefeeder to Hornady LNL AP press and I will be using [Dillon] spray lube. Do you use a 2 step process by running the cases through manually the 1st time to...

Herco should work fine for all but the .30-30 loads. HERCO is my main powder for .38 Special through .45 ACP [including .357 mag, .40 S&W, 10mm, and 44 mag] from target to moderately heavy loads with heavier bullets. It burns slower than UNIQUE and faster than BLUE DOT.
