    Zero 115 grain HP and True Blue

    Thanks for the information. I’ll load a few with 6.0 gr of True Blue and go from there. I’ve been using Unique and CFE Pistol with no issues. I have had this powder for awhile and wanted to try it again. Again thanks for the info.

    Zero 115 grain HP and True Blue

    I'm scratching my head about the descrepancy in the two sources for reloading data. I'm just going to pull the bullets for safety's sake.

    Zero 115 grain HP and True Blue

    I loaded some 9x19 ammo with Zero 115 grain HP and 6.5 grains of True Blue at 1.10 OAL. Lyman's 49th Ed. stated max is 6.7 grains with Hornady 115 grain XTP. Western Powders manual states that 6.0 to 6.2 is max. Did I over do it and need to pull bullets and start over or am I good to go?

    New vs Old

    I found them in my Dad's workshop earlier this year. The dies are for a .243 Win. I did take them apart clean them well in my vibrator. I had to request a new seater plug from RCBS though.

    New vs Old

    I found a set of RCBS dies that were manufactured in 1970. The dies had a little bit of surface rust on them, the inside of the sizing die was fine. Now the question is, are the 40 year old dies as good as a new set?

    smith and wesson 908 barrel

    Well I bought a used Smith and Wesson 908 the other day. I took it home to clean it and to familiarize myself with it. I noticed that the feed ramp was polished as well as the face of the "breech" of the barrel. Are the marks on the face tool marks from the factory, or are they marks from a...

    Minimum temperature for reloading

    My primary concern was taking powder from a 70 degree house to a 40 to 45 degree garage. I didn't know if condensation could be a problem.

    Minimum temperature for reloading

    I have been getting a bit antsy to do some reloading. Unfortunately, my reloading setup is in the garage and the temperature hasn't been above 50 degrees. Is there a temperature that you should use as a minimum to begin setting up to reload?

    New (old) model 700 .257 Roberts

    That is the 700 classic from 1982. I made the mistake 6 years ago and passed on one at a local gunshop. A friend has this rifle, it is an accurate and fun rifle to shoot. Very nice rifle and a very good find.

    Redding Big Boss II vs RCBS Rockchucker

    When I gave my dad back his Rockchucker press, I happened on a article, I think Handloader, RCBS now casts its Rockchucker press frames in China. I then decided on the Big Boss at that time. Its a great press. I would also consider the Lee Classic Cast press if I were in the market for...
