My RCBS set of dies for .40 S&W also only contained one seater.

FuzzyTGF, About 15 years ago purchased a DeSantis model 007 for my Sigma SW40F. It's in black leather, not too shiny, but the button strap slows down a fast removal of the gun. Since you're now using a BPV, the holster I now use which is a Blackhawk model CQC wouldn't do you much good...

Some posts aren't even worth responding to.

I've been reading a lot of posts recently about the safety of tumbling live rounds, and noticed something strange. People are referring to their vibrators as "Tumblers", which they ar e not, they are vibrators. Even the manufacturers of some vibrators are now calling them tumblers. To the...

Thanks for the response guys. I have to admit, Hadn't been thinking in terms of progressive reloading as I only use an old rock chucker and all other features of handloading are done individually. Since I never reload more than 50 or 60 rounds at a time, I can afford to remove excess lube by...

I'm curious. Why do people want to tumble ammunition they have just finished putting together. While I've only been handloading for a few years, have always found it easy to simply put my just fired cases in the tumbler when returning from the range, let it do its job for a few hours and...

Have been using the Sinclair priming tool for years and am very satisfied with it.

Sig220mw, Sorry, I was referring to the post submitted by mm6mm6 with the pictures of that beautiful scroll work. Was just being a clown, wasn't referring to your post.

You're right. Far too many scratches, and those bleached grips, UGH. Anyway, I'll take it off your hands for fifty bucks, and that's my best offer.

Hey fellas, I appreciate all the responses and advice given. Been away from a computer for a couple of weeks and therefore unable to say thanks, but what was said by everyone makes sense and I'll follow the advice. Guess I just jumped at what seemed like a good deal at the time. BTW, I...

Need some advice from you .45 ACP pros. Just bought 500 bullets from Valiant Bullet Co. (160 gr. lead SWC) sized .452. At present, haven't been able to find any info from the usual sources as to how much Bullseye can be safely used in this light a lead bullet. Many of my books from Speer...

I've had my Sigma SW40F for quite a few years and load as follows. Powder is 5.0 gr of Bullseye, Bullets are Hornady, 155 gr HP/XTP and Federal primers no. 100. Definitely not the cleanest load, but since I use Bullseye in other calibers and it works well with the Sigma, might as well use it...

You fellows might have solved my problem. I bought my 629-3 in 1992 and have only fired about 200 rounds of factory ammo (240 gr JHP) through it. About a year ago while firing another box, found after only one or two shots that the cylinder was locking up. Tried again a couple of weeks later...

Recently while reloading a couple of hundred cases of .38 special from various manufacturers found that PMC rounds would not chamber. Was using 148 gr. DEWC's, and while all Federal, Winchester and Remington cases chambered just fine, the PMC brass was bulging midcase just enough to...

Just wanted to correct a mistake I just made in saying the price I paid for +P was the same as regular 38 spl. Actually paid $1.15 extra for 500 cases. Very similar to what Sport45 mentioned in his post.

The reason I ordered +P instead of regular .38 spl is because I have a few hundred cases of Remington and Winchester that were originally factory loaded and not +P, therefore don't really know if they would support hot loads if I did wish to go that route. This way with the Starline brass, I am...

Hey guys, Thanks very much for all the replys. I was hoping to hear that kind of good news regarding that many loadings. I always treat my brass with the utmost care and this is the first time buying direct from a supplier.

Have just received my order of 500 new pieces of Starline brass in .38 special +P. I will be loading 148 gr. DEWC's using 2.7 gr of Bullseye powder. Was wondering if anyone knows approx. how many loadings I can get out of this brass. I use a S&W 686 with an 8 3/8" barrel. The above load is...

I also found Bullseye to work very well when loading Valiant 148 gr. DEWC. Using my RCBS little dandy rotor no. 2 gives me 2.7 grains every time. I"m shooting a S&W 686 with an 8 3/8" barrel and it's almost like shooting a .22. BTW, I don't crimp those wadcutters, and so far haven't noticed any...
