    Dented Cases

    Damn, wish there was a cost effective way to get that from you, lol. I only use it for pistol calibers that don't need any at all (carbode dies) when everyone is asleep and i just need to resize more quietly. If Dillon's works vetter, then thanks for the tip.

    Stripping Mags

    It has happened to me, I just don't remember very clearly what it was. It wasn't in a fight for my life, just at the range. It didn't have the cuts on it but it wasn't ever stuc so badly that I had a super hard time removing it. Some kind of misfeed I think. Maybe it isn't needed much with...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Yeah, that could work! Never loaded 275s, tho. Could start with 300 data and work up a little. I'll have to count them when i get home, but i have ~150 of the 325s and i don't remember how many of the 300gn FTX Hornady. Probably 100 or so. How many of those did you have?

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Just gave me a good idea for a YouTube channel where you send in components and dude builds load data for them. Im not gonna do it, but i wish someone would. I stopped using the factory crimp when my 10mms started resizing the bullets. It was a plated bullet, but that's mostly what i used...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    What did you load them with, powder, weight, COAL, and bullet weight? Using a Mark 19 Regular DE with 6" barrel. Well broken in with a few spring changes, she eats everything pretty well. Been awhile since I've had a malfunction even with my light "new customer" loads.

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Right about a lot of that. I put up the pic in part to demonstrate the same (nominal difference) bearing surface if you mean beneath the ogive. Jacket thickness and hardness were NOT taken into consideration, however. Leaning way more towards throwing them in the truck and giving them away now...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Hahaha, because i cant return the damn things and I'm committed to justifying my expenses. Maybe i can find someone that wants to buy them at cost and i can save hours of my life. Figured there needed to be a post for this anyway, I can't be the only one. This is the 2nd time i bought the...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Correct. Im using less than the start load for 50ae with the same weight. I could possibly cut off the tips (one on the right in the picture) and then i can seat to 1.580 as normal without filling up the case so bad. Just really don't want to use a grinder and toxic up the house and a cooing saw...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    As 2nds these were cheaper than plated so i thought i was doing good. Plated has a tendency sometimes to fit weird, like i can hand seat them sometimes. That brass was on load 14, though, so ill go back to them. These don't appear to be Hornady and they won't tie a company to factory 2nds for...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Lol, funny you say that. I almost did! So it can be lower, i just wanna evaluate the barrel afterward? It's gonna be a while before i shoot it, wanna ask around as much as i can. Just needed to know what i would be able to do. If one recipe works, im just gonna use them for target with that and...

    500 magnum loaded in 50AE? Is it stupid?

    Only thing close were other 325s of a different shape and length. Hoping the load would be low enough that a squib would be the only risk taken. Only loaded one just so i could see what my limits are on powder capacity, minimum oal, and plunk. This is the only place that might have data, these...

    QUESTION ON TRIM??

    Never in my life seen the fabled 9x21 in such abundance no has the 9x19 been so scarce that anyoneone was just like, "Damn, I gotta spend a weekend tryna make this work." Be a cool skit for Mad TV or something if our ilk hadn't been so under-represented in media. We had, what, Death Wish 3 and...

    QUESTION ON TRIM??

    Correct. The added friction of the extra .01" of brass is negligible. If you set the crimp tight for a shorter case, then it could be extra tight for the long ones that get pushed further in. Still not enough to be an issue with mid-range loads unless you really screwed something up beyond...

    QUESTION ON TRIM??

    Trimmed a few hundred 45 ACP's 2 years ago and I still regret it. They're up to about the 14th load now and they have just a little too much headspace. They do not grow back. If you're quite sure you'll be using the matched headstamp batch indefinitely and you want the most consistent crimp...

    Desert Eagle .50 AE Load Data

    I emailed the company back in 2019, October. They said most assuredly that they would be doing a run of 10" barrels by December IIRC. The pandemic got in everyone's way and I didn't expect them to stay on schedule, but I was hoping they might have done them by the next year. No one asked...

    Desert Eagle .50 AE Load Data

    https://www.natchezss.com/berry-s-superior-plated-handgun-bullets-50-action-exp-500-350-gr-rs-500.html This is why I'm here. Plated 350gr from Berry's. I'm wondering if 29gr H110 would work alright or if it would just be a trip to the gunsmith and then the hospital. The link is there for anyone...
