    44mag Reload Help

    Get the Lyman 49th edition Cast Bullets load data book. The first part of the book is how to cast, do's and don't. The rest of the book is load data for a lot of different lead bullets.

Leading is caused by a few things when shooting cast. Velocity, BHN/hardness of bullet, lube & diameter of the bullet. Too high of a...

    For $300 you can't go wrong with the Bersa CC. Shaved sights & hammer. Has a little more "Meat" to it but the recoil is nice. My wife & I both have one & very happy with it.
