    Trail Boss causing squibs...

    Im using dippers and a RCBS JR3 single stage press. Everything is done one step at a time perfectly. Only time I use a dispenser and progressive is for my 40s and 9s, I use the single stage on my 10mm too. The old single stage makes good looking consistent rounds when everything else is...

    Trail Boss causing squibs...

    my powder isnt even igniting unless it is pushed against the primer though. Thats the real problem here. It's almost like its a wadcutter powder only, or I've got some bad powder... I was loading magnum primers and not having any issues, but I really doubt the primer is the culprit here.

    Trail Boss causing squibs...

    For the past week I've been shooting the stuff. I'm fully aware it says it's for lead bullets, but there shouldnt be a problem getting the things out of the barrel. As for what I'm doing that for, playing with low recoil snub nose loads.... ruining good guns... it's cold and gross...

    Trail Boss causing squibs...

    I'm loading trail boss powder in 38 special cases. Today I stopped when I realized my barrel was filled with three bullets. I was shooting a S&W Model 36 snub. The loads were 3.7 grains of TB and a 125gr jacketed hp. I might as well have just shot primers. My loads that I was loading that...

    remove name off handgun

    This is on the FRAME only. You can do whatever you want to a slide... If you could not, Brownells and Midway would cease shipping to Alabama or where ever.... somewhere on that frame is stamped the maker, and the sn, thats all it needs

    remove name off handgun

    Yeah, sorry, but thats nonsense, you can modify a receiver all you want provided you arent turning a rifle into a short barreled rifle or something that crosses into NFA stuff. Modifying a receiver is in no way "creating a new firearm". Everyday hundreds of 1911 frames are "modified"...

    38 Special Loads, 777 FFG + Winchester Silvertip HP

    I ended up going with Trail Boss for this... Amazing what 1.3 grains of that stuff will do for you with a HBWC... Now that I've started reloading smokeless again, I'm really going to be broke. Between that and black powder...

    38 Special Loads

    Here's why I was using that magnum primer, I was thinking with such a light load, that extra flame might just do the trick if the powder shifted toward the front of the round.

    38 Special Loads

    I've recently got back to reloading, mostly because my girlfriend decided she wanted to start shooting, then the got a concealed permit, and now shes talked me out of a couple guns. When we go to the range though she's getting burned out really quick on me, and mostly due to recoil. I can...

    I like your style.... That's about the wonderful idea I've been looking for.... Ill post on how this works out.

    38 Special Loads, 777 FFG + Winchester Silvertip HP

    They don't advise it, but it's pretty regular for it to be done from what I've gathered, not to mention at the light load I'm using, I think it'd be almost impossible to have a safety issue come up with the 777 load. Freakish things happen when you load to light of a smokeless load, or they...

    Would you buy a Knight?

    Id have a Knight over any of the others. In my opinion they made/make one of the best inlines.

    38 Special Loads, 777 FFG + Winchester Silvertip HP

    The recoil that I'm loading at right now is almost nonexistant, I'm sure I can get it lower, but I'm not real sure that getting a noticably lower recoil will be possible without running into problems with stuck bullets. That said, hey, I'm open to suggestion

    38 Special Loads, 777 FFG + Winchester Silvertip HP

    Im going to go get a can of bullseye and trailboss tomorrow and see what I cant do. The wadcutters I might have to order though, or I could cast some round nose slugs, but to take up space in the case Ill prolly just order some wadcutters. Im also considering loading up a box or so of 38 S&W...

    38 Special Loads, 777 FFG + Winchester Silvertip HP

    The full house BP loads were alright. I did find a better one. 12grains of 777 FFG and the rest corn meal. All that on top of a Winchester small pistol primer for magnum loads. Nice nice nice load. Very light report and an extremely soft recoil. Honestly it sounded and felt just like a...

    My First One

    yeah, I can almost say with 100% certainty that the bolt is not propperly fitted on all of the pietta 18xx guns... Other than that, they're golden generally. Nice piece. That's the first cap and ball I ever had as well. Get ready to get another, you will shortly.

    "K"onversion & tuning the '58 New Army (Pietta)

    Uburti makes a revolver called the "outlaw" i think. Its more or less a 58 in 45 colt

    38 Special Loads, 777 FFG + Winchester Silvertip HP

    It's compressed somewhat. Yeah, blackpowder and some shotgun powders I didnt really want to fool with last night is all I had out here. After I posted last night I went on and loaded up some really light stuff with 777, I'm talkin really light, 14gr stuff. Yeah, I put filler in the case...

    Buying a new In-Line Muzzleloader?

    I like the idea of the speed loads in a shotgun shell thing on the stock... I use Dead Center bullets, saboted 40caliber solid lead balistic tip of a thing... They hit. Anything that'll fly straight to 200+ yards out of an inline, smack fairly good groups and still do hardcore damage beyond...
