    Hornady One Shot

    Been using One Shot for way over ten years and several thousand rifle cases and never a single probelm what so ever. Love the stuff. Will add I neck size only 99% of the time. The reason I gave One Shot a try was using RCBS case lubs and pad I felt was a huge PITA to clean up once done.

    Did they whimpify loads in new reloading books

    I do not know if it was to as you say "Wimpify" them, but the newest Lyman relading manual shows the max load of RL-19 for my 338wm 3 or 4 grains less than the one I own. I saw this as I thumbed through the latest Lyman manual while I was at Cabelas.

    whats the single most contributing factor to accuracy ?

    The single most important factor IMHO in getting the maximum in terms of accuracy from your relods is fallowing this simple rule. Perform each and every last step of your reladong prosess as close as is humanly possable the same exact way every single time you do it without exception no...

    Gun laundering (not what you think)

    Although my wife grew up around firearms as her father was as big a hunter and gun owner as I am and she has even shot quite a few, she has a take it or leave it attitude with guns. I am getting a little fed up with hearing men saying, be it in the real world or in cyber space that thier wives...

    The facts only, please.

    I agree with what some have said about certain people dieing almost instantly from small caliber handgun rounds and others hit by you would think, giant killers like 12ga buckshot or slugs, serviving. It remindes me of a History channel epasode on the Medics on the medivac chppers in Viet Nam...

    The facts only, please.

    Considering all of the awesome improvements in personal defensive ammunition over the last 5-7 years I was wondering if anyone has any irrefutable evidence preferably based on autopcys of criminals, that the 9mm Parabellum is on a even parr in all aspects with other larger calibers such as the...

    I thought Glocks were drop safe?

    Considering that this ocured in NYC and the megala-mainac they have elected mayor/dictatore dont be surprised if Glock themselves is a named party in the law suit and is assesed some percentage of fault and or financial liability by the jury and winds up paying because of the "deep pockets"...

    glock 21 SF, or springfield xd, 5" both 45 ACP

    XD all the way. I spent over six months going to every gun store in my area to look at as meny diferent XD45s and Glocks as I could find. After only a few handelings I strongly prefered the XDs feel over the Glock. The Glock is a excellent firearm in its own rite, but I liked the XDs added extra...

    Movies where guns would make it rather short.

    Actually a T-Rex did not weigh as much and certainly not more than a big African bull Elephant. I know this because I have watched countless programs on the History channel and based on the recovered fosilized remanes of T-Rex the Paylintogists estimate a mature fully grown female T-Rex ( with...

    Honest Opinions

    FWIW Gun Tests Magizine has reviewed the P-220 in the past on several occasions in both blued and stainless versions and thay have always given it quite high marks and even awarded it their "Best in class" statis for one year for 45acp DA semi-autos. That also includes buying used P-220s made...

    Anything bad to say about the Taurus PT1911??

    My firearm Bible "Gun Tests Magizine" reviewed the Taurus PT1911 recently and gave it a poor rating or the equivilent to a "do not buy" rating. If i were going to buy a 1911 and wished to stay under the $800 price range I would 90% most likely look to Springfield Armory.

    How do you retrieve pistol brass at the range?

    Has anyone thought of giving as portable battery powerd vac a try? I am seeing these more and more now at places like Home Depot for job site use. I guess i will try one. With a long skinny solid tube attachment I doubt you would even have to bend over to do the work.

    Lead Poisoning --Valuable Health Information

    What ever happened to the Nycad line of HG ammo? I think S&W use to sell it? not sure, but it was a all lead bullet incapsulated in nylon for use at indoor ranges. If I recall it also got pretty good revies as a self defense round.

    G34 versus G17 versus XD 5 for range gun!

    I would vote XD as i own two. I bought the XD over the glock because #1-It fit and felt better in my hand, #2-Gun Tests mag has consistantly given the XD varients their highest ratings time after time often over the Glock. But in all fairnes to the Glock GT mag has always said full sized Glocks...
