It looks like I may be faced with ordering a single stage press sometime soon. I have been looking at the Rock Chucker Supreme for $126.99 and free shipping. Is there any better options around that price range? Once I get a single stage, I'm sure I could easily find many more uses for it than...

Thanks for your input, JimKirk. I believe you to be absolutely correct that it's the "base" of the brass that is not getting completely sized. What is strange to me is that I have also loaded thousands of .40S&W rounds and shot through Lone Wolf barrels (3 different ones) and have not had this...

Hello, I just read several outstanding threads here on THR about loading for .357 Sig. Lost of valuable information. I stopped loading .357 Sig about 9 years ago due to the problems I was having with achieving a consistent finished product. I recently decided to give it a chance again...

I currently carry the XDs .45 with the 5 round magazine in a smart carry holster with a spare 7rd magazine in the holsters 2nd pocket. Works well for me. I've also carried two 9mm single stacks, but prefer the .45.

Thanks so much for your quick help. That is exactly what I needed so I may get the correct tap.

Hello, I am not at home to check for myself, but am wondering what the thread size and pitch is for the screw that mounts the grip to an AR receiver. The reason for this is I purchased an unfinished receiver that needs to have the hole tapped. I'm wanting to get the correct tap for the...

Glad you were able to move and have more freedom. My first Glock was a 19 with Trijicon tritium sights. Love that gun and still have it.

I usually don't purchase Harbor Freight for quality either, but...I bought that same work bench 3 years ago and it worked out so well for me that I went back and purchased another to use for my reloading bench. Have a blue progressive press on a "strong mount" along with a 6" bench vise mounted...

Glad you had a spare pin laying around. It could have been much worse if you would have had to place a $12 order (with shipping) to Dillon for a $1.00 part.

Yes, Thanks for the details of your experience. I ordered the G43 last month from Buds without having seen or touched one. I did dry fire a G42 over Thanksgiving and liked the feel and size but wanted to wait until the 9mm was released. Thanks again for your info.

I would not build a 10mm using a .38 Spl frame. However, I have never seen a Ruger GP100 chambered in .38 Spl.

These would be through the X-frame 8.38" barrel. I also just checked and they are the 250gr and not the 240gr. I just remembered that the 250gr were on sale and that's why I got them instead of the 240gr mags. It didn't dawn on me when ordering that the ones on sale were NOT mag. Bummer for...

Well THANKS. I will probably not worry about it and not load to extreme max to start off with. I would figure that these bullets are of high quality enough to handle light to medium 460 loads.

I accidentally ordered 200 240gr Hornady XTP bullets with intentions of putting them on the end of 460 S&W magnum. I meant to order the XTP mag bullets, but ordered the regular. I am wondering what velocities I should keep these under to be safe and accurate. My plan was to load them with...

It seems to be very effective at attracting certain species of butterflies.

Thank you all for your thoughts and tips. Before I started looking, I just thought that all 7.62 rounds used the same diameter bullets. Thanks for clearing that up for me and heading me in the right direction.

I haven't started loading for 7.62x39 yet, but am starting to pick up stuff little by little. I believe the bullet diameters to be a little bigger (.312") on the AK round than on the 7.62NATO round (.308"). Since I already load for .308 and have plenty of 147gr M80 Ball bullets, it would be...

I'm probably going to load 20 rounds at 5.5gr and see how they shoot. Thanks all.

The reloading manuals I have do not list a LEAD 125 grain for Unique. Several manuals along with Alliant's website lists 125 grain Jacketed with Unique.

Hello, I've been using the search function for 30 minutes and decided to just post the question. I am loading .38 Special for a 6" GP100 using hard cast 125gr RNFP over Unique and unfortunately my 8 manuals do not have this combo. :(:( (they have great data for jacketed) I have previously...
