Hogue Avenger-45 ACP
Put mine together a few days ago.It is a lever delayed blow back system-lead bullets don't effect delay system.Use of shims and minor hand fitting was all that was needed to obtain zero H & V play between bbl and frame.The bbl is made by BarSto-it is a match bull bbl and is...
Put together a Hogue Avenger 45 ACP and am presently testing it.If anyone wants info on this conversion feel free to contact me.I have already tested it with a scope/sand bags/200gr/LSWC bullets-it is extremely accurate.Selling price is less than list price also.Only complaint I have is-the...
Dave Wells Pistol-Final Action
Had Dave Salyer,S.C. gunsmith install barrel/bushing. I had elevation screw shortened-was interfering with firing pin movement. I installed a Ed Brown hammer,sear,extended ejector, modified sear spring and polished all internal parts. I did proper trigger job and...
I submitted this post for the purpose of warning my fellow shooters about the shody workmanship and unethical behavior of Dave Wells-a "gunsmith" from eastern Pa. You may recall I had him build a 45 cal target pistol with a KKM barrel.Without going into much detail,he switched the barrel,lied...
S1000- 185g/200g LSWC
Researched S1000. Starting charge is 3.8grs. With 185g/200g/45 LSWC-target range would be about 4.0 to 4.5g. I use 4.0/200g SWC at 25yds-is clean,accurate and no functioning problems.
His bullets are pretty good and he is a strainght forward guy to talk to. Probably due to production demands-some of his orders take a little more time. Mine wasn't one of them.
Dillon 550 Press
Goose5-Did you get this press new from Dillon or did you buy it used?? IF you bought it used-the components were incorrect. I have found Dillon's customer service to be quite excellent.
Common Sense
It is pretty obvious,judging from the latest crop of similar stories,that the vast majority of people in our country have little or no common sense what-so-ever. I think the most frightening aspect of this trend is the fact that they can pass laws,vote and reproduce.Erod
Dillon 550
Thanks all for great advice. Wound up with Hornady LNL for my 32S&W long.Press is massive,decently priced and with the pistol insert in the powder measure-charges as low as 1.2gr are quite reliable.Customer service is excellent and overall the press is trouble free.Ernie
Can anyone suggest a source of lead cores or lead wire for 45 ACP swaging??Shipping from west coast is too expensive and C-H doesn't have any.Tnx for help.Erod
Meister DEWC-.32 S&W Long
Thanks for kind advice.I should have mentioned load and powder.I am trying for very accurate loads,using a Meister 100gr DEWC,and just enough powder to function action reliably. At 50yds,I don't want slight leading in throat area after 5-15 shots.It will hurt...
