    .38 SPL - 158gr LSWC. What do you like?

    I need a few hundred middlin range loads. I've been using Titegroup but I thought I might try something else to see how it does. I have Unique, HS-6, 2400, AA #5, Clays, Solo-1000, and Universal on hand. Thanks!

    Anyone worry about laser sights in a defense shooting?

    Has anyone ever been sued after using laser sights on a CCW gun? Couldn't the shootee's family sue you for modifying your firearm to make it extra super deadly and not having to really aim to kill people?

    158gr LSWCHP - brand?

    I like Speer's bullets better than Hornady, because the lube is so much less messy. Anyone have other prefs? thx!

    Bear Creek Supply

    I ordered 1000 255gr LSWC from Bear Creek a couple of weeks ago. A box arrived and when I opened it up I found 1000 255g RNFPs. I really don't care for RNFPs, so I called Bear Creek to arrange an exchange. A young man named Rick answered and I explained the situation to him. Instead of ANY kind...

    S&W DA big bore

    First, I guess I shoot 1911s best, and I like 'em. Lately though, I've had a flirtation with revolvers, and I've picked up four K-frames in the last six months (19, 13, 64, and 617). A couple months ago a friend of my mom's gave me an old Interarms Virginian Dragoon in .44MAG. I got some dies...

    Unique for .44MAG?

    I've recenty started loading .44MAG (and I like it ;)). I've been pleased with 13-14gr of Blue Dot, but I've run out of that, so I've tried some others I had laying around - (all 240gr RNFP Meister hard casts) 13-14gr of Blue Dot (very nice) 7 - 9gr of Win 231 (haven't fired these yet)...

    Here's a novel RKBA idea

    From a blogger named Rivrdog: Gun ownership/carry rights should be in the forefront of this National Election, but unfortunately, this theme has been relegated to a minor role. I have an idea that might bring it back to the forefront of the election. Prior military service members may...

    125gr LRN and Clays

    I loaded up some 125gr LRN with 2.8 and 3.2 grains of Clays last night and took 'em to the range. They were the most inaccurate things I have ever shot. Barely a 10" group at 10 yards. I also had some 124gr plated rounds over 3.5gr of Clays that I shot first, and they were fine, so I don't think...

    Make your own dummy rounds?

    Is there any problem with making your own dummy rounds instead of buying snapcaps? Would it be OK to use a fired primer and seat a bullet, or would it be better to decap and fill the primer pocket with epoxy?

    Kahr P9 - 115 or 124?

    Assuming Gold Dots, would 115gr +P+ at 1300 fps be preferable to 124gr +P at 1200 fps? I'm wondering if the +P+ gets burned quicker in the short barrel of the P9. They both seem about the same to me in terms of recoil and accuracy. Resp. g ;)
