I use Buffalo Bore 100gr hard cast lead, standard pressure in my lcp we both handle it well.. J

I always wanted something in commander size...

Hi all, I was hoping to get some insight on which of the above two carbines you would consider better for home defense/plinking. I'm sticking with the 9mm round due to the fact that I have a few 9mm pistols ( glock, beretta) and I think it would be easier just to have one round to deal with...

I just recently came across a M1 carbine in nice shape and had to purchase it( I must admit I have a soft spot for them). I'm considering using it for home defense if I "feel" the need for something more than a handgun to get the job done( I also have to admit the short barrel is a plus too)...

Hi all, Thanks for the replies, I just ordered a few boxes of the 115gr GDHP, & for the hell of it I also ordered a box of corbon dpx to try out. I will have to make a note of how they work incase anyone else is thinking of giving them a try J

Hi all, I have a SP101 chambered in the 327mag. round. I often carry this piece for self defense and I use the speer 115gr GDHP as a carry round. I have to say I was impressed the first time I target tested this round. The round was very accurate out of a 3" barrel, plus I like the idea of a...

Hi all, I was hoping for some insight on shooting solid copper bullets from your ruger lcp. I own a lcp and was considering getting some corbon 80gr DPX or buffalo bore 80gr TAC-XP ammo to try. I've read that the solid copper gives the " best" of both worlds because it will offer both...

Hi all, I just picked up a ruger LCP this past weekend and I was hoping to get some insight on what other lcp owners are carrying in their guns & if it is feeding & functioning reliably for them. please do not get this confused with my other post asking about defensive ammo for the 380. Now...

Hi all, I wanted to get a feel for what you would consider " the best " all around self defense ammo in the 380acp caliber, I like the winchester silver-tip hollow point in my other hand guns for self defense. I'm looking into getting a 380 for my pocket ( keltec or ruger) so its super easy to...

Does anyone have any experience with the standard pressure 110gr hydra-shock ammo? They do have a pretty large hollow point opening, I was hoping to get some feed back on these also if possible too. I also want to pose this question, now that we are moving out of the era of light/fast and into...

Beag: I bought this gun for summertime carry, I can easily throw it in the pocket of my shorts and not even notice it there. When clothing allows I either go with my sp101 or even a full size 1911. I do agree the trade is increased recoil because of the light weight... but then I'm hoping I...

I have a s&w 342 airlite Ti that I carry with corbon 110gr +P ammo. This stuff is BRUTAL to say the least out of a 12oz revolver (I wouldn't expect any less from corbon) even if it is rated for the +P stuff. So my question is what brand of NON +P ammo would you use and the reason why. Which...

Hi all, I was hoping to get some "real world" feed back on which of the above you would consider a " best bang" for you buck purchase. I'm looking for something thin & easy to hide in my pocket during the hot summer season, I usually carry a J-frame which is easy to conceal pretty much all of...

Hi all, I was hoping to get some feed back on the Savage Axis XP rifle series. I was considering picking one of these up in the 223 caliber but before I did I was hoping to get some insight/feedback on the quality/fit/function of this rifle. Does anyone own one of these or know anyone who...

Hey all, I just stumbled over this post & I've seen mention of " barrel burn out" I too shoot a 300RUM . I use a 180gr bullet over 80gr, or 84gr over a 150gr bullet (powder is IMR 4831), my question is how many rounds would I in theory have to shoot before I noticed a decrease in accuracy or...

Zak, Good article thanks for bringing it to my attention. J

I am surprised no has mentioned anything about a 7mm Remington Magnum (or any of the 7mm mags for that matter, if I missed it I'm sorry) like I mentioned above I like shooting my 700 in the 300RUM caliber, I will agree it is NOT the best caliber for everyone but it works for me. The 7mm mag's...

I'll take a Remington 700 in 300 RUM J

I use IMR4064, for both my 7mm mag & my 22-250, I may not get the very top velocity out of it but both rifles are very accurate with it. I shoot 150gr ballistic tip from the 7mm & 50gr ballistic tip from the 22-250 J

Get a Lee factory crimp die and don't look back.... J
