Good to hear, yeah im currently going through any/all my surplus 30-06, 7.62x39,x51,x54r since the the prices atm are crazy and im running out of reload materials for those calibers. Luckily i stocked up about 20k small pistol , 10k small rifle , 4k large rifle before the pandemic when i think...

I have about 21,000 large pistol primers, leftover from a bulk buy me and my dad did back in 1995~ we bought about 300k of those plus various rifle and magnum primers, they've been kept stored in original boxes and spent their lives in vacuum sealed bags in the gun cabinets which run...

I find that as well. Cfe doesnt really group too well towards the lower end of a given charge range. On a 1-10 scale 10 being max charge you usually need to run around an 8 of 10 to tighten up your groups.. hs6 is similar.. 3 days of ice cold rain still havent gotten to shoot, my ranges out back...

Now if I can get home before dark and test that'd be nice... If I can borrow my buddies chrono even better...

That sounds way too high in the 6s . I made test batches at 4.8 , 5.2 , 5.4 , 5.6 @ 1.110 oal

Yeah I'm 99.9% shooting steel plates with these. For SD loads I'm using hornady or HST with hs6

sorry for slow reply, been laid up. hit a tree doing 70 on a ktm :thumbdown:. Guns used: p320 Xcompact , Scorpion evo 8", Evo K length , p365 , P365XL and and a p320 Xfive. The reason I need to load these so short is due to the length of the bullet they are shorter than a gold dot. I can go...

yeah bud the 9mm. I never tried RMR's MPR jhps before but I've used many other RMR FMJ or JHP with good results. I figured hell I'll just grab 3k took 5 weeks to come but in these times you take what you can get. Previously I've been running Everglades Type 2 124gr JHP but those went up in...

I picked up 3k of these and geez these are gonna be loading short searching around I see anywhere from 4.0-4.5 to 4.5-5.3 These are quite short so the max oal I'd probably run would be 1.080 or maybe 1.050 which would give me a little more ass in the brass for lack of a better term.. What's a...

Yeah most likely over crimped or somthing. I use lee fcd myself religiously on .223 and .308 semi auto loads with zero problems, and these rounds feed in my other sigs but the bar sto barreled 229 hangs up when feeding them. But I ran all 500 through my rcbs taper crimp with the seater backed...

works like a charm, now feeds and shoot no problem. guessing one of his dies are out of spec

guess I'll just run out a 14 rounds test batch, yes they are loaded fine, he uses my recipe my HS-6 and OAL recipe but the only difference is our crimping dies "well and die sets"

damnit I subscribed to the thread and got no messages about replies coming in. supposedly they are lee factory crimped, but they have a lip to the case rims and they keeps catching on the throat I think

I was given about 500 .40cal 180gr HST reloads "rmr sells pulled from time to time" the problem is my buddy factory crimped them with a lee die and my sig with barsto doesn't feed smoothly with anything lee factory crimped... I always use a Taper crimp rcbs and it will then shoot/feed...

told me I could bring him in in 30 minutes so I think I'll just do that. I have been trying to get ahold of hm for almost 2hrs. supposedly he should be OKAY. apparently a small dachshund did this once before. I was told the craziest thing he every pulled out of an animal was a large dishtowel.
