    Federal ammo!!

    So I just realised all my .45 acp Federal Champion brass I have been keeping, has small pistol primers. Whyyyy!!! I guess I should have checked,but anyway. How does this effect my load? All my books give loads for large primers. Is it stupid to hope I can use same loads with small primers?

    Brass quality

    Hi there all I am reallllly new to reloading. I have been collecting my brass and was wondering if the cases(.45acp by the way) that have slightly dented mouths are usable? I am not talking badly dented, just a hair. How perfect does the brass have to be?

    Shooting an Animal you just struck with your vehicle

    Not sure about the rules regarding shooting it, here in CT, but I know that if you kill it with a car you can get a cop to tag it and you can at least take it home.

    IDPA SSP vs ESP

    Hi there. Is there any reason for a total noobie to competition shooting to not start in the ESP division as opposed to SSP division? I stipples the front of my MP 45 grip which would put me in ESP. Is the level of competition higher in that division or should I not worry about it? It's...

    Hi there all. So I realize and understand why never to store powder and primers together, but what,beside impact or fire, can set off primers in storage? What type of fire extinguisher is best for controlling burning powder? Then, does anyone have any links to articles/resources explaining...

    How do you handle people who stare you down?

    In south africa few days go by that I don't get the exact same problem , most days I just don't make eye contact and pretend I don't notice them (while always keeping them in sight just incase they make a move) Here you won't find many people carrying openly because it makes you a target ...

    Competition setup vs self defense setup

    I was told that might hurt you more in the civil case(when/if family of dead guy sues you) than the criminal case. Any thoughts on that? Not that I intend on shooting anyone anytime soon.

    Competition setup vs self defense setup

    I must say, I have my heart set on a 1911 of some kind.I know it's maybe not the best choice for competition, but I am hoping I will just get used to it. I shot an real nice Colt a while ago and that trigger is sweet.

    Competition setup vs self defense setup

    I have noticed before that people seem to differentiate between the two in terms of how much effort they are prepared to put into setting up a gun. The comments are usually," I am just using it for home defense, so I don't want to spend too much". Surely that is when you want it to go bang...
