Something I forgot to add since I have it logged in my Loader's Data Log is the Primer's I used, CCI 500 Small Pistol and the fact that I used new Star Line brass with case lengths noted as 0.7505, I've a small box from Midway USA from way back that I decided to use for my initial testing. After...
First of all I want to thank Dudedog for all his help and patience.
Haven't got much turn around getting to the range and when I finally make it I found that I had forgotten the Springfield RO when I got there..... dah. That was the primary reason to go and to check out some new reloads for it...
Slappy White; that's a great price. I have a special place on the workbench for mine which I've had for a long time.. Use it mostly for de-priming and pulling bullets. It's a handy little press that most would find a use for I think.
Good for you 1911in9mm. Its a blessing that you honor your friend with such thoughts and memory. Most of us, if not all, stand on the shoulders of others as we learn and enjoy our sport. We miss those friends but always take them along in memory.
With my renewed interest in 9mm carbines I ran across this thread and having just passed my 84th thought I could join in.... LOL. I've really enjoyed the read and the thoughts being posted in this thread. Recently the fire flared up again and I started researching the issue for me. It's now come...
Fun day yesterday as I finally got in the shop to try reloading on my new press and using Jake's (RMR) 147gr FMJ FN projectiles. First step was to make up a dummy round for plunking the two 9 mm barrels I'll try these in. The COAL was 1.1270".
The load data I'll be using is from Speer's #15...
Interesting. I have a Frankford Arsenal rotary case tumbler system now and after doing my first pass the SS pin business was the only thing I thought was a bit of a pain in the back side. So, the next session will be without the SS pins.
Now, since there are a number of Lemi Shine for this or...
Have started the process of trying to locate a mounting plate for possibly changing my rear iron target sight for a Leupold Delta Point Pro red dot. Have been contacting various mfgs and dealers like Springfield Armory, Leupold, and still waiting to hear from EGW Guns, and Brownells. Springfield...
Hang in there Poper….. :(
I was getting ready to go to the range this week after being closed in all winter and found that they had closed the range for a least a couple more weeks because the last wet snow we had collapsed the club house roof and pushed the walls out. The shooting area is...
Decided I needed to give these 147 gr FN a try also so punched up an RMR order this morning. Beautiful weather here this morning and looks like more for tomorrow. So, off to the range tomorrow to finally get some testing in with WSF and Sport Pistol loads.
Thanks to Dudedog for pointing me at...
Please, did you make your mount for the dial indicator or is it available at an online shop? Really like your approach to getting the adjustment you're looking for.
The steps I use in prepping my range brass for reloading is the following -
Deprime -
Clean -
Resize -
Check brass OAL (.754 - .750) -
Check if the Quick Trim tool will enter the case (.348) -
If the Quick Trim will not enter the case I cull that case from the reload group. The question I ask...
