Anybody seen Speer 1835 (110 gr JHP .308) bullets lately? I like them in my 30-06 but they seem to have vanished the last couple years.

I just broke in my new LC9S. This will be my new carry piece. Has anybody else with the same gun run a batch of defensive ammunition through it to test reliability? Mind sharing your experience on what the most reliable kind is? Thanks in advance!

I am in a state that only allows you carry in church if you are part of a "security team" and "notify the congregation in writing." We have decided to publish a blurb in the bulletin once per quarter to fulfill this requirement but are a little lost with what verbiage to use. We want to put...

Does anybody else make a case-operated expander/powder dispenser?

I've been getting a lot of high primers and a few misfires. I'd say around half (or more) of my primers are high after discharge and 1-2 out of 20 rounds don't fire. Cartridge is 30-06 110 JHP over 47.6 gr IMR 3031 in twice fired brass (3rd loading). Can the primer pockets wearing out cause...

I finally got some lead to load for the Bodyguard...115 gr LRN is the best I could do. I have Accurate #2 and #5 on hand (and don't plan on being able to find anything different). Anyone have data for this projectile and powder? Thanks in advance!

Going to a gun show in Mississippi this weekend. Is it legal to CC at gunshows here?

So, I've been working on this plan to set up a recruiting booth of sorts. The idea was for a table, sign, and a laptop (really, that's all the logistics) either in front of the store or in the firearms department of Bass Pro/Cabela's where people will have the option of either donating to the...

Anybody used Herters in the Mini-30? Thinking about getting one but I'm curious how it runs with the cheapest of the cheap. My Mini-14 works fine with Wolf, but I don't want to assume the Mini-30 is the same.

My dad said he has had FTE with Herters 5.56 in his SR556. It was after about 90 rounds of plinking. My theory was that the chamber was hot and melting lacquering on the casings resulting in their adhering to the chamber wall...what do you think?

Just curious how much lead is going down range this weekend. There really is no better way to celebrate the sacrifice of our predecessors and current fighting men and women than to flex one's second amendment rights at the range (my opinion). I personally relish the opportunity to fire a...

About when do you think the Midway USA Memorial Day discount codes will be emailed out? I've got a big order I've been holding off on, but can't wait much longer.

I'll try to make this short. I'm in a dispute with a neighbor (2 houses down) over a dog fight. Our animals got into it, his was more seriously injured than mine, and we're trying to work out exactly how much I should pay in the way of restitution. The man is an absolute emotional time-bomb...

I just started my first rifle loads (done lots of pistol before this). I am getting a slight dent in my 30-06 casings just below the shoulder. 1.) I'm told this could be due to too much lube...how do the mechanics of that work? How does lube dent brass? 2.) Also, do you HAVE to lube inside...

so, it has been a long day of hunting with no success. I'm pretty tired and I'm hitting it again early in the morning. Can I leave my break action muzzleloader loaded overnight without any ill effects? It's stoked with T7 magnum pellets, if it matters.

So I went BP hunting this past weekend. I had two clear shots at deer and missed both. I just got into BP and I'm still learning the platform (Traditions buckstalker with fiber optic sights, and 240 grain saboted jacketed hollowpoint on top of two pellets of T7 magnum powder). The first...

My friend's CVA keeps misfiring. The primer goes off, but the powder doesn't catch. It has happened with two types of powder. After the primers goes off, he finds the bullet about 3 inches from the muzzle. Does a 209 primer have enough juice to move the bullet up that far? He is using...

Supposing one was casting 50 cal Lee R.E.A.L. bullets for a muzzleloader: Do you HAVE to use PURE lead for these? Can you get away with straight wheel weights? I just don't know where I could find pure lead without having to pay for it.

Friends: I just got a Buckmaster .50 cal starter kit. Honestly, I'm more impressed than I thought I would be with it, given the price. Now on to fueling it! What would you recommend for projectile/powder? I'm looking for cheap and I'll be happy with minute-of-whitetail accuracy. Not...

Simple enough question here: Can you stick a cast 200 gr 45 cal Lee R.E.A.L. bullet in a sabot and fire it in a 50 cal muzzleloader? I have the mold lying around and would love to stop paying $1 a round for BP bullets (RIDICULOUS to begin with!). Thanks in advance, friends!
