Anyone load the varmint sizes 110gr-130gr? I've tried the 110 (sierra), but haven't figured out how to get them accurate out of my savage 110. I can seat them way out to get closer to the lands (my 180gr loads like this), but neck sizing with a lee collet die results in some ww brass unable...

Three of them! Below is a message I sent to someone a few days ago: Just wanted to update you. My friend and I settled on a load that was good for accuracy and velocity out of both Marlins and both Blackhawks with two bullet types (given some small compromises between the two). The 265WFNGC...

Last week I asked about a .243 as a platform to tinker with long range and or precision accuracy (entry level no competition envisioned). I got some good supporting replies and have done more research to supprot the caliber in this role especially with handloads. So, what would you guys...

I've got a 30-06 and a .223 AR is on the way. I've always pondered long range precision tinkering, but do't want to deal with a lot or recoil. I was thinking .243Win just to stay away from another 30 and retaining factory chamber (a custom barrel is't out of the question later). What are...

Standard 45 ACP fare: I'm loading 200gr. LSWCs (H&G 68 style) with 6.3 gr Unique in WW brass with CCI primers, shooting a Springfeild GI model 1911. My lymans 47th says: 1.235" COAL I'm having issues with getting a reliable feed. I've tried different magazines, and they all feed...

I am thinking .223 with 22-250 a distinct posibility. So as far as inexpensive options- I am considering the Savage, Stevens or Handi-rifle. Mostly paper punching with the occasional predator hunt involved. What are your thoghts?

Failure to eject. Pistol has about 400 rounds through it. Just WW white box 230gr RN ammo to break it in. I started handloading 200gr LSWC in front of 6.2gr Unique. Had some fail to eject...loaded some 6.5 gr Unique. Less often, but still happens. I'm thinking I should go to hooter...

I have the 45 Colt, and I think the grip frame is aluminum on this model. There was an interesting thread on another forum in which a user's grip frame BROKE after only a few hundred rounds of "Ruger Only" loads in 45 Colt :what: The poster stated that he was surprised that this was not an...

I've used Unique for all my 45 ACPs for a while now. I used it because that's what I learned with and it's what my buddy (who taught me) used in 8lb cans. He chose it because it works well for his shotshell, 45ACP, and 45Colt. I'm getting low on powder and I've noticed a lot of folks like...

I'm just getting into cast bullet accuracy with my RBH 45 Colt. I appreciate all the feedback on powder selection. My question is simple ;) With LBT back in business and all of the usefull info available "at a glance", is it "worth it" to start casting now? With metal prices through the...

Which powder to chose for 45Colt +P loads for a RBH? I'm impartial to brand, but having seen W296 small small grain size, I'd like to look for something else... Thanks!

First let me say Merry Christmas, and thanks for a great body of knowledge and sanity. I just bought a SA 1911 GI model on Thursday. On Friday, I feild stripped it, cleaned it and oild it sparsely as I was trind to do by USMC Cadres in 1993. My shooting on Friday went rather well. 150 rds...
