I have reloaded pistol for 5 years but I am new to rifle reloading and have a question. I have just over 5,500 223/556 cases from range pick up that are clean, de-primed and ready to go. None of them look like these. I picked these up at my local range. About 75 of them. The cases are labeled LC...

First I want to say I have loaded 8,500 rounds of 9MM exclusively on both the Lee Classic and Hornady LNL AP. This is my first time loading .223 or any rifle and this question is regarding the LNL. All cases have been cleaned, lubed, sized, de-burred, chamfered, pockets swaged and primers in...

I am experiencing primer seating depth issues with my LnL. This is all 9MM I size and prime in one step and then load in a separate second step because I can't seem to get everything to work at the same time. This is my latest problem. This is not new but has not happened to this extent before...

I am getting really frustrated as the LnL problems continue. I tried calling Hornady but they closed at noon today and will reopen on Monday so once again I am turning to y'all for help. I will keep this short- Being tired of the PTX sticking issue I decided to get an expander die and switch...

Hello and I hope everyone is happy and healthy in this crazy time. My problem is this: PTX sticks as case is removed from powder drop through expander. I have done many, many hours searching here and the internet. I have cleaned, polished, lubed, removed, reassembled, raised, lowered, adjusted...

I am trying to set up my new LNL seat crimp die. I have called Hornady and they had no idea and had no suggestions. I have cleaned per directions. I have tried at least 25 times. I seat the bullet and so far no problem. As soon as I start to set the crimp the bullet hangs up or sticks as I...

Hello everyone! I have been reloading for just under 2 years now and I have received SO much great info here. I load 9MM only and have used 700X, Autocomp and now have switched to Silhouette specifically because of reviews and how accurately it meters in my Lee Classic with the Autodrum. The...

Hi everyone- I have a general question about using a chronograph. I have my loads dialed in and working perfect. I have shot just under 3,000 of the Zeros and just received 2,000 more. I just ordered a chrono and hope to be able to take my reloading to a more exact level. I am thinking my...

I am trying to find load data for 125 Gr. JHP. In reading the Hodgdon loading FAQ I a reading what I believe to be that they are the same and they have load data provided for the 125 Gr. HAP. Are the the same? Can the info for the HAP be used to load a JHP of the same weight? I am using 700X...

Alrighty- Here's a question for all of you. Below is something that is very puzzling to me and I can't figure out. I am using a Lee Classic Turret. I have listed the empty case lengths and then the case overall length after loading with Berrys plated 115 gr. RN. Why such a variation...

I am just about to pull the trigger :neener: and order more bullets. After searching the forums and not finding specific answers I was hoping y'all might be able to help. I found load data for generic 125 Gr JHP in Lyman's 49th edition that says: IMR 700X starting 3.8 gr.@ 930 FPS and Max...

I am looking for better load data than what I have found, which is basically none for 9mm 115 gr round nose. I have reached out to Winchester but I am tired of waiting for their response. Based on info from Berry's I can use the load data for any copper plated or jacketed bullet of the same...
