    Reloading for 9mm carbine and pistols

    I have a 9mm ruger PC carbine a shield and Glock 26. When loading should I custom my load for each one? A friend told me I should make my loads to suit the rifle as those would be enough to cycle the pistols. I generally use 115 gr rnd fmj with win 231. Anyone run into this situation before?

    Glock 26 trigger or sight issues

    I recently purchased a Glock 26 and for a long time have owned a performance center shield 9mm. My issue is that with the single stack shield I get great grip and phenomenal grouping. My Glock I recently put in a 3.5lb trigger bar (I think it's called) and all of my shots were to the left. I had...

    .300 BLK barrel lengths

    I'm looking into building a .300 blk AR, I'm thinking about the barrel length to get. I want to go an SBR but I don't know if I want to go through all the NFA paper work and mumbo jumbo to just shoot an SBR when I can spend half the amount and get a 16" upper I can shoot right away. So back...

    Barrel twist rate, velocity and bullet weight

    I'm curious with a fast twist rate of 1:10 in a 22" barrel would a heavier grain bullet (180gr .308) be more accurate with a faster or slower velocity? Same for a lighter bullet (150gr) In the same barrel.

    Ruger American .30-06 reloading issue

    So I bought a new Ruger American in .30-06 and i'm confused with a certain aspect when reloading for it. When I first bought the rifle I had some .30-06 cartridges already made for my M1 Garand, all were made from Federal cases with hornady fmj 150gr on top. Maybe a third of the 80 rounds...

    Creating .270 win brass

    I was curious about forming .270 win brass from .30-06 brass. I understand the FORMED .270 brass will be a few thousandths of an inch shorter that of a real head stamped .270 Win made by a factory. Is there a hazard that comes with this loss of length or is it negligible? I'm buying a new...

    .44 magnum cases with .44 special powder load

    My indoor range does not allow .44 magnum due to the high pressures on the facility (lights blowing out and the like). The good thing is they allow .44 special so my original idea was to trim down a qty of 500 cases of my .44 magnum supply to .44 special length. well this turned out to be more...
