Just noticed - your in Alaska, that dealer/range might be quite a road trip.

Might check out the S&W Shield in 9mm. For me it was a real comfortable fit - even more so for the wife. By the time it came in - it was her's. And i have no chance of getting it back. Another woman @ the same dealer/range bought it in .40 and she loves hers too. But as in all guns, she has...

When I mention an "addition" 1st words out of the wife's mouth - U GOT Dies, & Powder for that ? & Whats it gonna cost to add that to the reloading bench. SO I have a limited selection Odd, she didn't quibble when I got her a 20ga 11-87 for her B-day. I don't reload for that I was lucky -...

Thanks Clark, maybe you better educate me a little more - Like - Spring "Right"? And did you get these from one of there 'smith kits? OR are these from a different pistol kit?

I've been to that range/club outside KC. Fenced, takes a code to open the gate. Mostly farm land around it and Flood berms for when the Missouri River backs up the Kansas River. Doubt a developer would try to move in. A Nice shooting club though.

Kinda late - but Rondog - I've read a warning about ranges in NYC or suburbs there of. A year ago I was planning a visit & was checking the laws. LEO's were known to be snooping at the range. I believe one incident involved a confiscation that was disputed. Also, even on the NRA web site, are...

Have you added your email to a "notify me" @ Midway, Graffs or others? They will probably limit your order to 2 boxes, but it's worked for me. (like the Sierra .223 partition or Starline 7.62X25 brass) - of course then you buy something else to help eat the shipping. Since Cabela's in KC...

Yep - I concur with RC - I use to stay up at night worrying about "bulge" RC described :banghead:. Damned factory loaders, I never knew. And welcome to the sickness of reloading - got a Chrony yet ?

I have a 53 TT Tokarev and a M57 Yugo, did the web searches on spring kits and recommendations. I found post of owners saying they had 3 different recoil spring weights from wolff (old post-different site) or saying they had specific spring weights. Both models mentioned. Couldn't find them...

Why the 3" in 20ga. for HD ? I'd suggest you buy a couple repair sheets (1/4 sheet) of drywall from Home Depot or Lowes, go out and screw it to a couple of 2x4's, actually, cover both sides. Then stand 15 or 20' (that's feet) away and make a hole - Start with a 2 1/2 skeet load and work up...

My M57 is .683 O/S measured at the mag release

My wife LOVES her Shield! I saw 1 in 40 S&W @ my LGS and looked at it and was immediately impressed with how well the small pistol felt in my hands. Stupid me, I asked if they could get it in 9mm. 3 1/2 months later it came in. Stupid ME - Honey, feel how comfortable this little gun is to shoot...

Dang those pic's look nice ! TOK Envy! Dentite - my wife wants me to trade you a Holster- ha ha (at least mine came with 10 boxes of S&B @ $6 a box, bought it last month)

Man, - You must shoot at a "Really Competitive Range" !

Anybody else having problems reloading Hornady XTP-HP for the 7.62 Tok? My M57 seems to grab them at the barrel ramp! Luckily it found while cycling them through by hand (firing pin removed) I noticed several were "shorter" when I picked them up. Re measured and sure enough they were. Slow...

Same here on rainier 115 gr & 7gr of hs-6 (have gone 7.2 with no ill effects) I used 6.2gr, Fed. Mag primers, with 124 gr Hornady XTP-HP & had better accuracy. I also read about & tried a shorter C.O.L. with HS-6 and it did burn cleaner. But my wife prefers Bullseye in her Shield (shorter barrel)

I guess I' the rare finicky one, I prefer my cases as clean inside as out. But I'm not doing a 1,000 at a time. & Semi retired, so i have the time. (just a habit I guess) I don't reload crimped & yes I sort my brass by brand. Especially when I'm reloading & working up to max. (not that often)

Thanks all - posted an earlier reply, but it seemed to have gone to sever neverworld? Was looking at earlier post on lead bullet loads and came across some very informative but lengthy replies. I was primarily looking at MBC 115 & 124 gr 9mm advice. Looks a bit intimidating when you get into...

Looking for advice on loading Missouri Bullet Co. boolets for a M&P9c and hopefully a M&P Shield soon. (or maybe not so soon- depends on S&W) I've read those barrels don't like "Lead" but have seen post of those that do use MBC in the M&P. I've been using Old "Alliant BE" & Old W540 (HS6)...

Dang -some nice "old Powder Tins" in that collection fecmech! MY wife was worried when I found my alliant BE from the 70's and started reloading again. Along with some old W540. Both are working well in her new 9mm M&P9c.
