    Handgun "Precision" Reloading

    If precision means accurate then try lead bullets, at least in 38, 357, 40 and 45acp. The extra .001" diameter certainly seems to help.

    I'm Very Happy...

    I love my Lyman trimmer. I did the cordless drill thing on it for a while and it works but I went back to the hand crank.

    1911 Essex

    Essex makes a good frame but you'll be buying a parts gun. Unless you are into building your own 1911s you might want to avoid it. I'd buy it if the price was right but I "do" 1911's. Here's my latest build, Essex frame, Colt side and barrel, Chip McCormick and Wilson innards with a random...

    Am I the only one who hates cleaning guns, HELP

    It's not that I don't like cleaning guns. It's just that sometimes I feel I have more important things to do, like petting the cats or loading ammo for the next "gun dirtying" session. I guess you could say I have priority problems or that I sometimes get the gun dirtying horse behind the...

    Do heavier bullets drop faster than lighter bullets....

    I didn't think it was all that bad of a thread. Those who didn't know about the gravitational constant are now aware that it exists. Those who hadn't thought about the resistance of air to a falling object are now aware of it. We all picked up little bit of knowledge.
