The stupidity of some people amazes me. I usually load miniumu charges, or slightly above, because neither the deer/elk or target will notice the 100 fps difference.

Hey TAB, I think he's talking about 1500 ft lbs energy on target, at 200 yards, this is 243 winchester, minimum. 243 is actually legal in Colorado, for elk.

Fortunately this crap has yet to be proposed in Colorado, and with 100,000 NRA members in this state, it'd be dead on arrival.:)

LOL @ never buy an XD. You can add Glock to my never buy list.:neener:

This thing looks to be absolutely devastating for short range combat, inside 200 yards. http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=0CrUARlmqso

+1 on Wideners, I ordered 10,000 wolf small pistol primers from them last year, even with shipping and hazmat, came out to $210 delivered. I can't match that price locally. Buying direct from Berry's is now an option, they have dropped thier lead surcharge, prices include shipping, they are...

My Ruger MKII 22/45 is very reliable with the Federal bulk packs from Wal-Mart, $13.97 for 550 rounds.:D

Anything Loricin, Jennings, or Bryco, plus anything 25 caliber.

All of my guns get shot on a regular basis, my XD has over 3000 rounds through it 10 months.:D

You want a full case of powder, try 9.8 gr Blue Dot behind a 165 gr Ranier, in 40 S&W. This is a listed max load, but the case of almost filled to the top.

This garbage is totally unenforceable, how are they going to know you have "uncoded ammo". Are they going to raid your home? This requires a search warrant, you know that pesky 4th Amendment.:D Are they willing to go the time and expense to obtain thousands of warrants, just so they can check...

Its an excellent choice, extremely versatile powder. Unique fills the case, its bulky, so its pretty much impossibel to double charge it. My loads are accurate and consistent with Unique. One caveat though, even the "new" Unique is dirty, after about 150 rds, my XD-40 is fouled up pretty good.

22 would have about 40 ft lbs energy at 200 yards, lol.

I've got a complete set, save the high powered bolt gun, but that will change in the near future.:D 1. .22 rifle = Nylon 66 2. 12 ga shotgun, = Mossberg 500 3. semi-auto center fire rifle, = Yugo SKS 4. high power bolt action or lever action, = Not Yet 5. long range (Scoped rifle), = This...

I agree, bulky powders = safety.:D
