    Thread-on comp for a Ruger SRH?

    I have a Raging Bull .44 now and the ported barrel definitely has its advantages. I want to trade it in for a SRH 454. I am aware of Magna-Porting, but I would rather have a thread on comp, I actually would like to use this one: http://www.lonewolfdist.com/Detail.aspx?PROD=1094&CAT=313...

    most consistent small pistol primers

    I'm loading some mouse fart .38spl loads with trail boss. I'm looking for really high accuracy. At the pressures I'm working with I would imagine primer variances mean a lot more than they would in a magnum load. I was thinking Federal #100M's, but I hate the big boxes. Are there any other...

    is there a "plastic" .38 super?

    nothing against you 1911 guys, my preference is just toward Glocks, M&P's, etc. Is there something like this chambered in .38 super? the EAA Witness is the closest thing I have found so far.

    does 2400 do anything AA#9 doesnt?

    I'm almost out of 2400, and I learned AA#9 has some applications for my other calibers. Does 2400 have any advantage over AA#9 in .44Mag?

    MAX load for a Taurus Tracker .44mag

    I read Tracker's are a bit weak. Id like to load up some max loads with 240gr LSWC's and 2400, any recipes? I personally own a Raging Bull, but I make ammo for my buddy who owns the Tracker. on a side note, I think I'm going to switch to 296 when my 2400 is gone.

    AutoComp and light bullets in 10mm

    anyone have experience with this powder for 10mm? I use (and LOVE) Longshot for most 10mm loads, but I picked up some autocomp for .380. I have read that longshot isnt the best velocity wise for lighter bullets like 155gr and under. i know visual appearance can be very deceiving and more or...

    who makes a tough .380 pistol?

    Is there a Ruger SRH of the .380 world? Id like to start reloading for that cartridge ant I'd like a gun that's a bit stronger than my TCP for working up to max loads. Funds are a bit limited, would a Bersa Thunder be acceptable? a PPK/s would be nice but they are a bit pricey for me right now.

    OK, so the Tac-XP bullet is great, where's the load data?

    In 10mm, the 155gr bullet, where are the load recipes? I cant find squat :banghead:

    whats the magic .380 powder?

    I usually run Swampfox's 90gr XTP load, it runs 1200fps out of a stock PPK/s Sadly, Mike Willard (the owner) passed away, and Swampfox ammo is no more :( Do I have any chance of duplicating this load without blowing myself up? I could go with buffalo bore's .380+P loading, but I dont...

    There is no such thing as a "1 shot stop guarantee" EVER.

    nope, never ever, ever :what: what should kill a person sometimes doesn't, and vice-versa. Hell, a close acquaintance of mine in high school killed a kid with a single punch to the face. http://www.yfc.org/columns/devos2006.php?DevoID=370 On the other end of the spectrum, there is a...

    is there a gun cleaner that will "wow" me?

    Pretty much from day one I have been using BF CLP because Its cheap, low toxicity, ok smell, and fairly effective. I have also tried: -Outers Nitro Solvent (free with various cleaning kits) -Shooters Choice Lead Remover (bought it for stubborn lead build up from .22LR's and cast bullets)...

    what would happen if...

    ...one were to load a pistol round like a 44mag or 10mm with a fast rifle powder? Id like to load up a few novelty rounds that throw huge flames and a make a big boom. My theory was if you get a powder that burns relatively fast for a rifle, but slower than something like 110/296, most of...

    large pistol primer "hotness"

    I now its not technically how hot the primer burns. Can someone rate the power levels of the common primer brands out there, CCI, WLP, Remington, etc. and yes, I have seen the photos of the rifle primer tests.

    does a ported/compensated barrel change barrel unlocking

    like the title says, would a ported or comped barrel make a locked breech autoloader unlock slower/faster?

    most accurate night sights?

    I'm looking for the most accurate sights for long(ish) range shooting. they have to be fixed and they have to be Tritium, I would prefer green in front. I have Mepros now, I like them from a quality standpoint, but I feel I would do better with a thinner front blade. Im looking at the...

    which powder burns faster/slower?

    2400 or AA#9? I have looked at a couple different burn rate charts and have conflicting answers bonus unrelated question: is AA#9 the slowest powder for 10mm Auto?

    .45 with a 6" barrel?

    does one exist that is under $800 or so? I know Para and STI make them, but they're far to expensive for what i want to do to them. Im aware there are companies that make long slides, im looking for recommendations on complete guns in this thread.

    Best 44mag whitetail bullet

    Either hand loaded or factory, please specify velocity for hand loaded. Must be of expanding design (state law :rolleyes:) I would like the bullet to exit the animal, and have very little to no fragmentation.

    bulk 135gr .40/10mm bullets

    I know Nosler makes 135gr JHP, but they're a bit pricey. Is there a place to get 135's in bulk, either FMJ or JHP?
