    Couple of 38spl questions

    Received some new bullets from snscasting. I have loaded a 38spl with 4.0 grains Unique and Win small pistol primer using a Lee turret with factory crimp die. Using the 158gr SWC the length is 1.435. I've seen a few listed shorter and longer. I really can go too much longer than this. Does this...

    http://www.news-register.net/page/content.detail/id/503290.html?nav=515 Ok, the guy had a ND.. I wouldn't carry a derringer anyway. You would think he would carry a better gun, but now Kmart decides to put up signs? http://www.news-register.net/page/content.detail/id/503296.html?nav=515...

    38 special, berry's plated and Unique???

    Just noticed in all my manuals, no one has a listing for 38 special with 158gr Berry's plated (RN) using Unique powder. Any reason for this? Anyone have a load to try? Ron

    Colt Army Special

    A buddy picked up a Colt Army Special s/n 4318XX this weekend. Can someone tell me when it was made? I'm thinking around 1919. Got it pretty cheap ($250). Shoots real nice. Ron

    My Lee Turret is setup, but have a question...

    I adjusted all my dies last night for the 45acp. Everything looks good so far. I setup the Auto disk powder measure at the .66 to give 6 grains of Unique. Ended up with 5.6. Did some searching and found Unique doesn't measure correctly on Lee's charts. Went to change disks, unscrewed the powder...

    Thought I had everything to start

    Bought the Lee Deluxe 4 hole turret setup with scale and other goodies. Bought my 45acp dies, manuals, 200 CCI primers, and a pound of Unique. Going to get some bullets tomorrow. The only thing I think I don't have is a caliper. Dumb question, is it necessary? Ron

    Good day at the range

    Took the afternoon off, since my daughter went with Grandma and Gramps camping and my wife wanted to go shooting. My wife kept bothering me to shoot my AR. I was adjusting the scope, then had to re-zero everything. So in the meantime, she went through 200 rounds or so in her 10/22. Got the AR...

    The wife asked for a gun?? Am I hearing this right?

    Yes, I think I finally converted my wife.... My 4 year old daughter has been bothering me to go to go to Cabelas to "Shoot the bears" in there indoor shooting gallery. So Friday night we all went to Cabelas and I got a bunch of tokens so my daughter could play. Well, my wife wanted to try it...
