    Trouble with 9mm 124 grain round nose

    Thank you. I started with 4 grains of HP38. I loaded 2. They shot well. I'll heed your advice and load a few more and check velocity. These are just plinkers anyway so right where I'm at may be where I end up. I had just not encountered this before so I was confused a little. Thanks.

    Trouble with 9mm 124 grain round nose

    I recently bought some 124gr round nose, hi-tek coated from Gateway Bullets. These are 356 diameter (verified) 124gr RN BB without lube grooves. The problem is, I have to seat them quite deeply in order for them to chamber. All the other 124 and 125 grain, both lead and coated, I seat to...

    Alliant Bullseye Smokeless Powder

    +1. This happens to be my absolute favorite load in my 1911. Fun to shoot and accurate. But hey, if it doesn't work for you, stick with your 700x. Certainly nothing wrong with using what you like.

    S&B Primers @ Cabelas... Sale ends Sunday!

    I was in my local Cabelas yesterday and they had lots of them. They run this sale a couple times a year it seems and last fall I bought 4000 lpp. Yesterday I got 3000 spp. I've shot a lot of s&b primers and every single one of them has gone bang. I don't benchrest shoot so I guess I can't speak...

    Titegroup for .45... Is it dirty?

    While I have limited experience with it, and have shot it under a 200gr LSWC, I've found it to be quite dirty in my 1911. The outside of the cases are black, indicating some blow black, lack of pressure. I've increased the powder charge hoping to clear that up to no avail. But again, I...

    BE-86

    I loaded 10 rounds each over 5 different charge weights for my 9mm over the weekend. Loaded a 115 grain Nosler jhp and will be testing consistency. Hopefully I'll get those shot this week and post the results.

    .45 acp SD HP Q

    I will throw another one out there. The Sierra 230grain jhp. Huge, deep cavity that expands wonderfully. In my gun, pushed with Unique, I found a load with an SD under 10 and flying over 900fps.

    Prices of powder in 1976

    I had to walk uphill both ways in 2 feet of snow to school everyday. Lol. Remember that story? Used to tick me off when dad told me that. I found a box of Sierra 30 cal bullets of dads from who knows when. He paid like 7 bucks for the box. Ah the good ole days. And I dont even remember them...

    ATK spins off Alliant

    Well maybe the new owners can produce bullseye unique red dot and green dot a little, wait no, a lot faster. Yeah that would be swell

    Where are reloading components available (Not a Discussion Thread)

    Graf's got in a decent shipment of Accurate powder today. Mostly rifle but also got some Silhouette.

    Graf's got some stuff in today. International and H110 were the only 2 that really caught my eye though.

    A little help please

    The Hornady book lists data for a 200 grain lswc. Unique starts at 5 point 8 grains and max is 8 point 6 grains. Picture available if you want it. Also sir, thank you for your service to our country.

    Which Tumbler and why?

    I have only owned 1 tumbler and it's the Lyman 1200 turbo. I like it but again, have nothing to compare it to. I'm hoping it lasts years. But when it does crap out I'm going wet tumbling, stainless pins.

    Thinking of loading up some 45 in lead

    Personally I find them easier and they shoot better. Take off the flip flops. Lace up your boots and go for it.

    The Pistol Powder Shortage Seems to Be Over

    The situation is most definitely improving. One of the biggest benefits I believe is the Clays line of powders becoming available. Clays has a huge part of the shotgun market. With it being made and imported again that should start taking pressure off of the others. I would tend to agree that by...
