Yeah not a lot of people realize we can own semi auto pistols either, I have a 3 in 9mm and 38 super but we do target shooting at my club which means light loading and plenty of 50 yard shooting. Shooting in general has this stigma about it here, kind of like you have to be a loon to own one...

I'm seriously envious of your situation there, our various governments ( state and federal ) are trying to squeeze us out slowly and by stealth. The State in between Western Australia and New South Wales has changed its laws so only 5kg of Powder can be transported through it which pretty much...

$20/1000 that can't be right ? that would mean less than $100/5000 ? I swear I have never seen primers that cheap in Oz. Best I saw was $210/5000 Federal Small Pistol Primers back about 8 years ago.

I'm from Western Australia and we are in a unique situation where we are getting squeezed out of shooting due to limitations on reloading components. At the moment we can't get Winchester Powders and up until a month ago we couldn't buy Federal Small Pistol Primers. Some FSPP become available...

2.0 Grains of Trail Boss using a 100gr SWC with it pushed right down in the case with a small gap so it doesn't compress the powder. This load will shoot one hole @ 25 yards out of most 38/357 revolvers. I use it in 4 of my revolver as a 25y distance load for comps. She could shoot these all...

I bought a revolver sight unseen and when it turned up at my dealer I was majorly distressed. It was a 357 S&W k frame model 66 and it looked like it had been dropped through a shredder. The only good thing was there was a brand new slab barrel on it. Long story short I spent a tonne on to get...

Some awesome tips in here, I want to copy some of them and put them into a printout if nobody has issue with that ? We get alot of new shooters into our club and most give up after a few months because there is no one around to teach properly. There is another phenomena I have come across...

I won an M&P at a World Title WA1500 Dinner Night Door Prize but you had to be there to win it, some Swede took the money equivalent. On a good note though a year later I won a Tanfoglio 9mm ( EAWitness equiv. ) at a state title up in the hills and again a door prize believe it or not ! The 9mm...

I suspect fliers with 9mm is due to the shortness of the cartridge and coupled with short pils ( ie: 115gr 100gr ), if the projectile is not perfectly seated parallel with the walls of the brass your using then upon ignition there is a harmonic introduced. I've seen guys new to reloading pump...

Here in Australia ADI Powders have just started to turn up, there hasn't been any AP50N ( I personally think its the 2nd best powder for 9mm )for more than 18 months. Federal Small Pistol Primers are still scarce but there seems to be plenty of Sellier and Bellot. Its been one of the driest...

Thanks alot guys I will get into making a few test rounds and borrow a friends chronograph and let you know of the results :)

Well my first dry run without using powder or new Primer was with a .38 super +P using a 147 Grain Semi Wad Cutter. Now to be perfectly honest I don't know why the guy at the Ammo shop recommended this weight Proj. and the Powder he sold me was ADI AP70N so I could use the same for super and...

Hi and thanks in advance for any replies, I am new to reloading and want to know how critical to reloading 38 super +P and 38 Special Hand gun rounds is the air space between the powder and the projectile ? Also is it possible to measure the crimp pressures as I have a RCBS Bullet puller and...
