2 hours of my day off, no rounds loaded, stuck case with live primer, and a few questions.
Started loading 223 last year. Tried a couple different bullets and powders, finally got a fair amount of brass prepped and decided this was the weekend to load up 500 of one of the projectiles I had a...
Have shot IMR4227 in 44mag for years, been loading it in .357 for a little while now as it was accurate enough and I've always got a bunch on hand.
Decided to pick up some 2400 for the 357. Loaded up 6 starting rounds to check velocity, extraction, etc.. Walk outside today, set up the chrono...
Long story short, I've discovered with larger size disk holes, the units (I have multiple) do not bring the disk forward far enough and leave a shelf with the larger disk holes no matter how far down I thread the die in and no matter if I use the riser or not. All three units seem to stop at...
What's available in bulk (1k pieces) besides the big boys like Hornady and Sierra?
Any of the smaller guys like Precision Delta offer anything?
What have u tried, like, hated? Where do you get 'em?
Been loading for my Glock 23 for several years now. For the 1st time I've seen on purchased once fired brass the "smilie", and now have a dozen or so that are reloaded that look ok but are .001 to .002" over at the bottom of the case after resizing on a standard Lyman sizing die. Only way I...
should I be looking for?
LOVE the singe action on my S&W 629 and model 36, but double action not so much.
I think I'd like to stay with a pre lock S&W, if the trigger can be worked on. Ruger?
I have not hit the lottery so no "collectables".
Whadda ya like, not like, and why?
So I've been using an "old style" 55 for years. Aquired a newer version (but not the newest) which appears to be the same except a plastic cap instead of metal and the reservoir doesn't screw out.
I don't see the threads like in my older one. Is this one not removable?
Fusion is part of Federal correct? Assuming so, can anyone tell me what is the difference between the F208FS2 vs Federals F203SS2?
The Federals shoot great for me, just wondering if they are the same load as the data looks identical.
Not that it's too hard to do!
Took the barrel ring off and noticed an improvement. Sanded the stock so the barrel did not touch and got this group.

And trust me, I am NOT that good of a shot!
Will my Anschutz become a safe queen...
9mm, resize/deprime, case plunks in guage and barrel. Prime said case, still plunks in guage and barrel. Expand mouth (more than needed), run through seating/crimp die (with no bullet) and case plunks in guage and barrel.
As soon as add a bullet to this process ('cept I back off on the flare...
So, we're far out enough in the boonies where we can shoot but when the varmints come around the .40 or 9mm isn't always an option depending on where they appear.
Was thinking a .410 sidearm would be great but am wondering about the pattern for said critters at say 20 yards.
Anyone have...
Finally get around to reloading 9mm (been reloading .40, 44, 38 forever). Get all the "stuff" ordered and the Lyman dies are 1st to arrive. Just went with Lyman as that's what I started on and pretty much all I have.
Deprime/resize about 100 on top of the ones I did with a buddies Lee...
Picked up an LCP as that's as big as I can hide most of the time. Problem is it just doesn't point like any other handguns I own. It points down considerably compared to anything else.
Not a problem at arms length I suppose, but it's a problem that I'm just not comfortable with.
I do NOT...
I guess I should have invested in lead and powder the last time I purchased in 2004.
Hard cast LSWC for 44 were $16/500 and 4227 was $96/8lbs.
Anyway, found the site and it looks like it's full of LOTS of information. Getting back into shooting/reloading so I'm sure I'll be back with some...
