    For the past week, what was it?

    40 S&W 165gr Remington BJHP pushed by 7.6gr Power Pistol with WSP primers. Velocity is 1150 FPS. I loaded a thousand in March of 2012 and am down to my last 50-60. I live in Texas and replace (shoot) my magazines empty a few times a year because of the heat/humidity we have here. Carry gun...

    Tell me about the PSA Dagger

    I like the Dagger a lot but, trigger is longer than any of my Glocks and without the definite 'wall' before it breaks. My Dagger came with a PSA AK GF3....quite an accessory!

    Glock 23 Today

    I put an extended mag release on my G27 and it really did make mag changes easier.....then I shot it....OUCH! 2 magazines in and I was done. That extended mag release cut into my left (support) hand. Out came the extended mag release and in went the original. Some upgrades aren't.

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    PSA DAGGER compact and a 'We The People' OWB holster If Holosun comes out with a FDE 507C x2 I'll add that to the kit. Only 150 rounds through the Dagger so far, but I am warming up to it.

    Show Us Your 40's!

    Ks5shooter has a nice Glock 27....I do not, but this one has been carried everyday for over 8 years and occasionally before that. I had the barrel and slide NP3 coated a few years back, but even that isn't holding up to the Texas heat and humidity. Pants on, gun on!

    I'll be behind a 1954 built Remington Wingmaster 870 16 gauge like always! Wondering how our drought will affect the fly through traffic I get. Yeah, pretty excited!!

    How do you know if a plated bullet is loaded to fast?

    There isn't a hole in the jacket because there isn't a jacket, this only happens with plated bullets! I suspect most people have never fired plated bullets at a target less than 1 foot away. I hadn't in 35 years of shooting. Why would you? I ask that before you poo-poo this, shoot a...

    Federal small pistol primers.

    You shouldn't notice any difference between brands of primers seating on the Dillon Square Deal B press. I use one and have loaded thousands of each of the brands listed, but I do stand when I load to get full leverage, especially on the primer seat 'press' of the handle.

    How do you know if a plated bullet is loaded to fast?

    The grey residue is not any of these things because it NEVER happens with jacketed bullets that I have fired at close range, only plated. I fired the shots with the same gun consecutively on the same day without any cleaning. Best I can figure is a little of the plating is scraping off...
