I've noticed when loading pistol. I have and old iver johnson in 38 S&W. Have to load it on the low end and when I ran out of cci primers and used federal spp the cases were sticking in the cylinder.

Hey dagger dog, I have a iver that looks like your. The guy I bought it Fromm says its a smokeless gun from the forties. How can I tell the year?
Thanks david
I made up 2 more with 1.2 BE and opened up the oal to 1.1825 which is a little longer than max. they shot good and the cases came out alot easier . still had to pull on them after the extra had maxed out, but nothing like the day before. I'm going to load up 5 and try them to see if any stick...
I've shot the ppu ammo I got . the brass is a little stick on 3 of the cylinders & very sticky on the other 2. I now have all the ingredients to reload. Lyman book has a load of BE @1.4 to 1.6 200 grn rn. I loaded 2 yesterday and shot them. I wore a thick glove so I'm not to sure of the...
Again, thank you
Didn't realize red dot was fast.
Will start under 2 grns & go up slowly with BE. I have about thirty 200 grains swc.
I'll play with those next week until I can make some.
Again thank you,
I didn't mean to get off track of the original question
My apologies
Good to know, I'll save the TG for 45 xtp.
I could probably get some red dot if u think that will help. I had just ordered an extra couple lbs of BE before the election .
Guess I need to shoot more so I can order more
Thanks again
I use bullseye for my 45 acp 200 swc Missouri poly coated around 4.5 to 5.
In my 32 s&w long I started with 2 grns of BE, but backed it back down to 1.5.
The shorts I'm shooting out of an older H&R American I believe us from about 1912, around 1 grn give or take . 001.
By the first of the year...
Hey , I'm new to reloading, started with 45acp. then loaded 32 s&with short and long. I just recently got an older iver Johnson 38 s&w. after I shoot up my factory magtech s I'll reload the brass. I'll probably use some 200 grain swc. the powder I'm currently using is BE or TG. when I get close...
Hello all, Ive been reloading pistol for about six months. St
Hello all, David here from N. Florida. Single Father with 2 girls still at home. I've been loading pistol for about 6 months.I started with 45 acp, just recently started loading 32 S&W long and short. Also just got a 38 S&W [Iver...
Hey, don't mean to intrude on you.
The 38 iver top break pistol shoots a .358 bullet?
My 32's are 6 shot also , but all 3 are H&R not iver Johnson
Thanks David
Good idea, ill order some brass and the correct lead bullets. I got the 3 boxes of PPu from Sportsman's Guide with free shipping. It's still cheaper in the long run to order a couple bags of brass, a box of lead and some primers.
Thanks for you advice
Dave
Can I get the code
Hey, I'm new to reloading. I've already bought a box of 200 lswc from them. Its the cheapest I've found and they shoot good
Thanks David
