http://www.thehighroad.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=131352&stc=1&d=1291085052 The case you see is a once fired 40 S&W federal case. The Dies are Hornady in a LNL AP press. The case can not fully engage into the die during the resizing because the die comes in contact with the shell...

Suggestions… Brass Cleaning Techniques I was hoping to follow some good detailed advice on Brass cleaning techniques for hand gun reloading prior to entering the press. I have a vibrator tumbler and an ultrasonic cleaner. I am using red rouge polishing tumbling media now in the vibrator my...

I just shot my fist reloaded rounds though my P229. Berrys 155gr. and 165gr. Jfp with 5.8 gr. of 231. Wow, sweet shooting for me. I was little apprehensive about purchasing a 40 cal. after all the reading I have done about how snappy and getting use to the recoil etc. I must say my 44 mag...

I recently purchased a RCBS 750 range master powder scale. The 750 will not maintain a zero reading after going through the entire calibration procedure. I have two other beam scales, as a double check when ever I reload, the digital was just one more quick check. One is a Lee and the other...

I have been looking at few different speedloaders for a 229 and 1911 45, never used one before any recommendations as to make and source would be appreciated. Thanks, Bill

I just purchase a Sig 229 for conceal carry. All the reading I have found suggests using a 165 grain JHP for defense. # 1. on the list is reliability. I welcome the wisdom and suggestions on powder type and grains that has provided to be flawless for this model. My understanding is that the...

This did not happen to me my bother sent to me so I thought I would share as a reminder to those who are just starting out in the reloading. Be safe.

I just bought a LNL and have been loading for about a month now. COAL is within +- .005 when reloading 45 cal. , I am not sure if it is the case or the bullet but I am not concerned about that. Also, the consistency of the loads varies slightly about +- 2 -3 grains I am not concerned about...

I just loaded my last 100 rounds of 44 mag. Using 2400 gave me pretty good grouping in my Model 29 with Hard Cast 240 gr. SWC. Now I am thinking about trying some other powders using the same 240 gr. SWC. I was hoping to get some feedback on N110, 296, 4227, or 2400 loads before I purchase...

:confused:I now have plenty of SPMP for my 357 mag., however I still can't seem to get any SPP, and all my sources still have them on back order. I would like some feedback from those who have knowledge or actually reloaded 380 acp with Wolf mag. Primers and if so, what loads would you suggest...

Well, I hope this doesn’t offend anyone but I traded my S&W in for a SA. I shot about 200 rounds thought it this weekend, I was amazed as to the groups at 50 yards, abut three to four inch but I know I need more time to bring that in. I did have a few cases where I have to force the slide...

Many of you fans of the 1911 may have seen something simular to this, but I tought I would share anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1H3IFJXxyEs

Ok guys, I took the Red Pill this time.:) I just received my new LNL AP EZ eject and I’m already thinking about the Blue for my next. I have Lee carbide dies for the following. 380 acp 357 mag 9mm 40 s&w 44 mag 45 acp. I know I have to get shell plates to fit them, my question is can...

I just received 1000 rounds of 380 95 gr LRN. My wife has a P232 and she wants to get more familiar with it and feel more comfortable with her CCW. I would like to use 231 since I have about 10 lbs. of it, recommendations for 231 loads and or other powders would be greatly appreciated. Bill

I would like to use my Auto Disk powder feeder in a LNL press which I am contemplating buying. Should I buy the Hornady powder drop. I really like the disk concept, I think but I can be wrong but it seems to me to be more fool proof. I will be loading the following 45acp 40 S&W 357 mag 380 acp...

I am currently using a Lee Classic 4 Hole. Seems to be a great tool no problem with it at all. I have 5 turrets preset with dies and all I have to do is set the dies and load the powder. however I can only produce about 150 rounds per hour or so. I have been thinking about the dillon Presses...

I am just getting into the autos now, and loving it. I own several revolvers and love the way they shoot. However, I am slowly venturing into a different world in which I am very intrigued and open minded. I have a 232 which I really like for CC iwb. I just purchased a SA 1911 Trophy Match it...

I just watch a video form Crimson Trace laser grips. It seams to me that there are a lot of advantages for self defense using the laser. However, what would be the disadvantage for a CCW and does the advantage out weight the advantages? I would like to get a CCW for my wife would it be better...

Ok, round two with my new purchase of a S&W stn. stl stock model. When I first puchased about 3 months ago I was prepared to shoot several hundred rounds. The first round I shot was a miss fire, light primer strike and did not discharge the round. After several attempts she finally fired but...

Is slugging a barrel for my 45 for reloading really that important to know for reloading. Can .001 thousandth of an inch really effect the accuracy of the bullet for short range shooting? I use a mic on my leaded bullets and they are sometimes .001 less then what they claim. Is sizing more...
