    Earmuffs and Ear Plugs worn together

    I wear earplugs with muffs. Spent a lot of time around aircraft engines, hearing protection was a priority. But I also only shoot handguns anymore.

    Replacing the Lee Primer tray for hand priming

    I bought the RCBS tray, I didn't have to sand it, I loosened the screw on the hand primer part, pushed the lip of tray in and then tightened the screen. Works great, haven't spilled one primer. Don't have to learn any tricks or techniques. My only concern is how long with the plastic pin in...

    Replacing the Lee Primer tray for hand priming

    That's how I do it, but I still have a few primers fall out. I never dropped a primer with the old tray. I guess with enough practice I could get to the point I seldom drop a primer in the new one. But why when a rubber band on the square tray works. I was just hoping there was a compatible...

    Replacing the Lee Primer tray for hand priming

    When I flip the tray over, it wants to fold back, usually a few primers fall out when that happens, I did put a towel down to catch the primers that fall out. More an issue transferring from the sleeve. But why when I never have issues with the old tray and a rubberband fixes the issue with...

    Replacing the Lee Primer tray for hand priming

    There are plenty of youtube video's discussing the issues with it. I could probably make a video where I was successful one time without spilling any primers. So it's not just me. I never had an issue with the old Lee square tray, from the first time I used it. I didn't have to sit their...

    Replacing the Lee Primer tray for hand priming

    A while back I bought the new Lee XR/ERGO Replacement tray. To be blunt, it's a piece of junk, you always drop primers trying to fold out the tray hold it flat and put the new primers in. It's just cumbersome at best to use. I've gone back to the old tray, which lost a corner, using a couple...

    How Do You Mark Cases to Recover at Range?

    Fortunately my range discourages scroungers and will confront them. They ask that you only pick up your brass. Though I usually end up with more 9mm brass and less .380 brass (I think .380 brass goes to the same place socks hide). The RO normally come in and sweep most of the brass on the...

    Sorting handgun brass...worth it?

    I sort 9mm by headstamp, but that'll all, seems like some brands are a little longer than others.

    38 special brass??

    I trimmed both 38spl and 357 brass for a while when I was using the seat and crimp at the same time. Now I just use a four step process and use the Lee Factory Crimp die, it seems to work just as well. I shoot well enough to hit around the bullseye and a few inside, I doubt trimming made that...

    Which primers do you like? And not so much.

    Waiting for you to post the results, if we go another year I'll run out and will need to buy more primers.

    You Can Learn A Lot At The Gun Store

    Yeah I see the Ginex and Servicios & Aventuras primers selling for under 8 cents. I'm still stocked up, so not buying yet, but has anyone used either of these primers?

    Are All Current Rugers Garbage?

    I'm happy with my LCR 357, Bisley Vaquero 357 and Redhawk 44 mag. My wife likes her Mark II. Now I did have an issue with the sight on my Vaquero coming up, Ruger fixed it fairly.

    What are you shooting at your next range trip?

    My range is fine with reloads, they do ask that you only pick up your own brass, I've only seen them talk to guys who are brass hogs picking up everything in site. Everything I shoot are reloads except for the 22lr obviously. I couldn't shoot my 357 snubby without reloads or would be limited...

    Getting the wife shooting; our story

    I own the Charter Arms Undercover 38spl, I like the gun, I'm pretty accurate with it, but the cylinder latch release screw continues to come loose, I can add loctite and it works for a couple of range sessions, then it comes loose and the cylinder gets jammed and I have to take the gun apart to...
