I use the Redding dual ring carbide sizing die for 45 Colt rifle (and pistol) reloads and really like it. Definitely works the brass less (no coke bottle shape). Less to no blow back in the rifle (depending on chamber dimensions). Less force required on the press handle to size the case...

Wow! A certified Sig Sauer armorer actually responded to your e-mail to the company with a direct response to your questions and you call it a "pathetic response" and then challenge them to "put up or shut up"???? Just wow! Totally unrelated, but I am curiously reminded of an old Clint...

The stock 2.0 trigger is better then the 1.0, however, IMHO the Apex Duty kit is a worthwhile upgrade. Not that the Apex kit is "needed", but it results in a very crisp, good trigger break that is one of the best striker triggers out there.

Have used Colt's, no-name metal 20's, PMags and Lancers. They all work, but I prefer the Lancer Translucent Smoke. IMHO, they take the best characteristics of the metal and polymer mags and incorporate it into one great magazine.

Huge wildfire swept through my town last year. At least 2,700 structures total were destroyed, of which 2,400 were homes. Many, many friends/relatives/neighbors houses burned. I evacuated under extreme duress, flames less then 100 yards from the house, thinking it would not survive the night...

The obsolete/little used calibers I load for are: 32 S&W (short) 32 S&W Long 38 S&W 38-40 (38WCF) 45-90 I shoot the most 38-40 using black powder, but I also load smokeless. Shot the brass so many times have worn out (cracks in case mouth, neck or body or all the above) at least two full...

I gauge every round of 9mm & 45acp. Once fired brass, very few rejects. Many fired/range brass several rejects per 100. -Mainly due to burrs on case rim or case head diameter increasing below where sizing die can reach.

For the P365, I've been really happy with the Crossbreed mini-tuck with the horsehide upgrade. I carry on the right side, 4 o'clock position

Wow the insides are clean!

I have a primary and backup for shooting Wild Bunch Competitions. It sure is fun to stoke the tube and run the 97 at speed on knock down targets!

Multiple ranges. Raw Speed: 7-12 yards Accuracy: 25-50 yards Pure fun: 100 yards

It wasn't my best shot, but it was most memorable. I was competing in a cowboy action shooting plainsman side match - cap & ball revolvers, single shot buffalo rifle & a double barrel shotgun-all loaded with black powder. I had a jam during the stage with a cap & ball revolver, unfired round...

Nope, never annealed pistol brass, life is to short!

My favorite 357 mid-range target load is: 158 SWC (hard cast) 7.0 gr Unique CCI 500 (or equivalent) COAL: 1.610" 357 mag out of S&W 686 w/ 4" barrel Ave Velocity: 1,109 fps Has been a very accurate, consistent load. Have been using it for a long time (over 30 years). I shoot more of this...

As mentioned above, it's because of the different hammer profile causing some straps not to fit. The Bisley requires a slightly longer strap. I have a Ruger Bisley and Vaqueros (original frame size). All my leather holsters fit either model frame, just some straps don't. Some straps have...

I like the UPLULA so much I don't even like to try loading a magazine anymore without using it.

For a mid-range load, I've had really good luck with Clays and WST.

For accuracy, I have gotten best results with the 124gr Match Winner.

I have tested both - RMR 124gr Match Winner and MBR HP rounds. In my guns, with 5.4 gr of BE-86 in each, the Match Winners appear to be slightly more accurate (like a 1/4" to 1/2" smaller 10-shot group at 25 yards) but VERY close. To really say the Match Winners are statistically more...

I've used liquid Alox too, works good but a little messy.
