    9 mm help

    I don't have a chrono so I don't know for sure, but I load both at the lower amounts and have no issue with cycling.

    9 mm help

    When I started loading, late 2011, a wise older man at the range suggested using HS-6 for my 9mm full size guns. He said the HS-6 being slower than typical fast, popular, powders people use in 9mm and .40 such as Titegroup, 231 etc will work better as it continues to push the bullet down the...

    .303 British rechambering and identification

    Just going to tag this. I'm pretty darn interested in the Enfields since I picked up a decent 1918 SMLE here a few weeks ago. One of those USA models like that would be high on the "Next Buy" list.:thumbup:

    primer strikes with no go

    Not being able to see just how deep the firing pin is into the primers.....If you have a bunch of oil/crud in the firing pin channel that can keep the firing pin from going as far as it needs to on all of the rounds. Just one other thing to think about. And just how does that "banger-seater"...

    Measuring powder

    I got into hand loading completely GREEN shortly after I got into guns, (long story, won't go into it now), in 2011. I'm 62 now I realized the wife and I could go through $40.00+ in an hour at the range. I look at it this way....I wanted new. And what I saw from my local forum was that if...

    AA#2 for .40 S&W 180 gr. FMJ ???

    I don't have much standing here with practically no posts but...I've been using HS-6 in 9mm and .40 since almost the beginning. A seasoned reloader at the range suggested HS-6 due to the barrel length on my CZ 75 .40 allowing for a full burn of the HS-6. I also like it because of a wider...

    M-1 Carbine re-make

    Total long gun NEWB here, unless you want to count a Ruger 10/22. And only into firearms for six years. I became enamored with the .30 Carbine, history and an article in G&A, and picked up one of the Inland's '45 models in February. It only has about 150 flawless rounds through it at...

    Question on 9mm HP COL

    COAL in 9mm..... I load only Montana Gold 115 and 124 gr HPs. The OAL I do depends on the barrel of the gun I'm loading for. So I make a dummy round, [no powder/primer] and start long. If it hits the lands of the barrel keep seating deeper until you get that nice "Thunk" sound when you drop...

    Identity and Date of Manufacture of S&W Revolvers

    To start with, thank you for the forum. ESPECIALLY, people that would put their time in to a thread like this! I picked up what I think is a gem today. Barely a turn line, no flame cutting and not a bit of bluing wear. a: .357 b: 6" c: square butt d: 6 shot e: Whit out line, adjustable...
