Hello all, I could use some help here. I am venturing to reload the diminutive .25 auto. Out of all the manuals I possess the only powders suggested are Imr high skor 700x, unique and trailboss. I have all these powders but I'm also looking at burn rate charts that show that Imr PB and IMR 7625...

Hey all, I’ve been out looking for powder locally even though I know I can buy bulk online, I was trying to get a variety of powders to test for 5.56/.223 and also heavier 30-30 hunting stuff (170gr jsp). I have been watching a few stores but .223/5.56 powder has been hard to find so I grab...

hello all, I’m wondering if anyone on THR is located near SW Missouri. I have met up with a couple members a few years back when I lived near Kansas City. I have since divorced the X, remarried and moved. I now haunt my own little slice of heaven in SW Missouri near Branson. We just moved...

hey guys, I have an opportunity to purchase a marlin 357 lever action for 885.00 out the door. I already have a nice uberti .45 colt yellow boy but it was dads favorite rifle and I don’t like to shoot it much cause I worry about dinging it up. Bought the wife a .38 special revolver last year as...

Hello again THR, For the last 16 years I’ve mostly lurked in the shadows here reading and learning laughing and crying (recently learned of rc passing), occasionally I’ll post a question or two. Members of this forum have helped me with numerous things including picking my first handgun and...

Thanks to everyone here that steered me in the right direction! Over the last two hours I learned how to use my lee casting mold and learned how to powder coat! Someday maybe I'll learn how to add pics! After watching many videos and reading posts here I can say I finally have hands on...

You all have been kind enough to help me over the years and again I find myself in need. FIL recently gifted me a Rossi 92 ranch hand in .45 Colt and id like to reload for it but id also like to cast my own bullets. I know I can buy a mold but which one? I have access to literally a ton of...

I'm finally loading up some .40 thanks in no small part to some of you guys on here that helped me with some brass. All loads are with blazer brass and CCI 500 primers. Load workup is as follows; .40 180gr remington rnfp OAL = 1.150 5.2 gr IMR SR 7625 5.3 gr IMR SR 7625 5.4 gr IMR SR 7625 5.5...

Hope I'm posting in the right place. My grandpa died back in the 90's, I received a box of stuff nobody else wanted. Among other things in the box was a set of old Colt revolver grips, I can't post pictures but would be willing to email them to someone who can... They look exactly like...

I need some help, I recently purchased a marlin 795 .22lr and I'm having some light strike issues. I've run a small variety of ammo through it: american eagle, blazer, cci standard and cci mini mags.... Oddly enough, I'm getting light strikes or failure to completly return to battery on...

Hey guys, I have begun my search for a good cc holster. At present I have tried a cheepo blackhawk nylon iwb (not horrible but moves around too much). I picked up a desantis cozy partner (it was anything but) and promptly returned it. I am looking at a crossbreed clone from a local company...

I recently picked up a lyman dial caliper as a backup to my hornady digital caliper, not because I needed it but because I wanted to learn how to read one and to possibly use to double check the digital one. I'm asking because the lyman seems "off" the dial isn't at a 90° and the copper lock...

Hey guys, I need some advice, I have apparently become ADDICTED to reloading. Today I happened to find a set of .380 dies (lee), I had purchased some 95gr fmj bullets a few weeks ago as well as a couple more manuals a set of .40 dies and some 180gr remington (brass coated) fmj flat point...

As stated in the title I'm proofing my CCW (Sig P-938) with my reloads. I got to thinking (I know that's dangerous) that instead of buying 6-7 factory brands to proof this sig I'd just reload some mixed brass with the projectiles I have on hand. I know I should sort by brand but felt it would...

To those on here who took the time to help me work up my first loads I'd like to express my gratitude. I can't thank you guys enough for helping this utterly green noob to acquire some working knowledge in this "new to me" hobby!!! I have wanted to learn how to reload for a good decade but...

Hello again, First I'd like to thank those who have helped point me in the right direction with regards to my questions about oal and whatnot. I have done some more research over the past few days and think I'm ready to attempt actually reloading a few rounds. I would really appreciate any...

As stated in the title, I'm new to reloading and need some advice. I have wanted to get into reloading for about a decade but have never really had the space or time for it let alone funds. Recently all that changed and I "pulled the trigger" on a Hornady LNL SS as my first press. I realize...

I have been interested in learning how to reload. I know, I know, I picked the worst possible time to go down that road... I am actually more interested in having someone take me under their wing and run me through the process on their equipment and help me to make decisions on my own setup...

LHello all, About a decade ago some on this site helped me to choose my first handgun, I've owned firearms since I was 12 but never felt the need for a handgun till an attempted home invasion... Back then I was single, I now have 2 childern of my own a stepson and a fairly openminded wife of...
