    Between Lee & Dillon

    Try starting with 1.23 and see how your gun likes that. You might have to adjust the OAL to get to feed in your gun. What works in my gun might not work in yours.

    Briley Bushings

    I have built 2 1911's and have used the Briley bushings in both. For the kitchen table gunsmith, like me, it is the easyest way to fit the barrel to the bushing. And if the barrel to bushing fit gets loose. All you have to do is buy a new ring and you are back it the original fit.:)

    Anyone have experience with .400 CorBon?

    I have done some reloading for this case. Have not had much luck so far. Biggest problem is bullet retention. Need to try and reduce the size of my powder funnel to try and get more neck tension. I think I might have a problem with the barrel in my gun that I built. I have a feeling that...

    Very crisp and HEAVY 1911 trigger

    What sear spring did you use? Try taking the the hammer and sear out and see what kind of pull you have with just the trigger. If it is the 3 finger style. Look at the middle finger try and put a little more bow in it. That should take some of the weight off of it. If you used the 4...

    It's Starting to Become a Gun...

    I have done two so far. The second was on a Les Baer prefit frame and slide. God did that save time. Just wait till you start fitting the hammer, sear and trigger. You will have the main spring housing in and out about 100 times. :what: But the end result is well worth it. Please...

    Obsolete Ammo Data Win. 351SLR

    Looks like you will need to try and find some older manuals. I did look in my Cartridges of The World and found some data. They list a 180 gr bullet with 19 grs of 2400 for a MV of 1870. They also have 4227 at 20 grs for a MV of 1840 with the same bullet. The book does not say if this...

    Kmkeller why are you changing the grip safety? Does you gun have the ridges that stick up on each side of it? Well I guess that Sig can't build them right either. Or Smith & Wesson.

    Went to the range that I work at today to hang out and BS with the guys. And what does one push in front of me, but a brand new GSR in stainless. He had to twist my arm to take it out and shoot it. :D The finish on the gun is very nice, even matte stainless. The sights were very good...

    You are getting plenty of help with the brass hitting you in the head. Let me try with the low and left problem. Since this is your first 1911 you might not be comfortable with it yet. Have had folks shoot 50 roundsout of a USP and want to know how to adjust the sights. Don't adjust the...

    primer problems

    Take them to the range I work at and put them in the dud box. Or you can put them in your gun and fire them like I did before. Some will say to spray them down with WD40. But I have heard were people have tried this and it did not kill the primer for very long if at all.
