I had a thought today that made me wonder, why is there no standard for hand size? We have it for feet, waist, neck and just about everything else so why not hands?
I can see so many practical applications for this. Just about every musical instrument, firearm and even gloves come to mind. I...
I have seen a couple of threads where this has been mentioned but I want to throw the question out there again. Has anyone had ACTUAL experience with the SierraPapa trigger VS. the stock trigger?
I love everything about my 9mm CX4 except the trigger. It is, seriously, the heaviest and...
I just bought some of these RN bullets from RMR. I have not worked up many loads yet but the weight variance is practically zero and they are extremely uniform in diameter and length. Man they are inexpensive!
So far, I have only worked up and tested 2 loads. Using titegroup I went with 4.5...
I was at my local LGS over the weekend and did a double-take after seeing a 12-gauge semi-auto shotgun on clearance for $210. I know Stevens are made by Savage but that is about as far as my knowledge base goes. A quick google search revealed some pretty mixed reviews but it seems that retail...
I have an LC9s that I love. Unfortunately, mine seems to be one of those that doesn't like hollow points. Now, I have to admit that the only hollow points I have tested are Montana Gold 124 grain JHPS. I typically, however, carry either Hornady Critical defense 124 grain XTPs or 115 Grain FTX...
I have been seeing those Heritage Rough Rider .22s for a couple of decades now. It seems like, every time I pass the gun counter, that funky single action revolver with the safety is calling me.
Then, every time, I see that $130-$150 price tag and recoil away. There is just no way that a $150...
I have terrible vision. I have worn glasses since I was 11. Even with glasses, I don't see very well past about 15 yards with black and white targets.
Over the last couple of years I have fiddled with just about every kind of paper target out there trying to find that magic combination that...
I am new to .223 so this is my first load for them. I am using H335 with the Hornady 55 grain FMJBT bullets here:
https://www.midwayusa.com/product/165907/hornady-bullets-22-caliber-224-diameter-55-grain-full-metal-jacket-boat-tail#
According to my Hornady handbook it lists a range of...
An older friend had a brother who passed. He had some reloading supplies he didn't know what to do with so gave me a few pounds of powder. They pass the look and smell test. They are all in the old metal cans (no rust). Some of them (IMR cans) are old enough that they still have the DuPont...
I have reloaded handgun calibers for years but just purchased my first AR15 (.223). I plan to start reloading for it. I would like some input. Please keep in mind that this will be for fun. I don't shoot rifles much (more of a handgun guy) but I do intend to keep it for castle defense if...
Im sure this is not the first time this has come up but i am on the clock. My lgs has an m&p sport 2 for $600. They close in 3 hours and the sale ends.
I just want to know what the concencus is on these. As far as my need. I don't need one. For that matter i don't shoot rifles much anyway...
I have been using the Lee autodrums for some time now and have had nothing but fantastic results until today. I have not done any 9mm with the autodrum yet and was setting up to do some when I ran into a problem.
The 9mm expander plug in the powder through die will not engage the autodrum...
I was just finishing up casting tonight. With my lee bottom pour pot nearly empty, I unplugged it and my fan and started putting the fan away. Unfortunately, the cord for the fan was wrapped around the cord for the pot so the remaining lead splashed down the front of my apron and all over my...
There are a couple of new wadcutter threads that reminded me of this but, rather than hijack them, I will start this.
My main question is this:
I know wadcutters can be pretty soft but, HOW soft? I have an old stash of lead that is between 8-10BHN. I have not cast wadcutters in a long...
I have been reloading for a few years but just started .380 in earnest. I have never had neck tension problems with any other loads. I usually test by first measuring and then placing a couple of rounds into my magazine. I chamber and eject them and re-measure. If they move much at all, I...
I hate cleaning lube out of my dies and the smoke that goes along with it. I have read a lot about warming the bullets and lube before applying to get a thinner, less messy coat. I did this to a batch of .357's for a test. I use the white label 45/45/10. It sure does go on thinner! The...
I have an early 90s era 92fs. It is one of my all time favorite hand guns. One issue I have always had with it is the common problem with the barrel diameter being on the wide side. It is .3585.
I shoot a lot of lead bullets but have a challenging time getting good accuracy. I cast my own...
Last year I cast a bunch of these .357s (probaby 800 or so). I am not sure how I didn't notice this defect. I am thinking it was back when I was smoking my mold cavities with a candle and that perhaps some oily residue from the candle might be the culprit. I have since discontinued this...
I have been using the smaller Lee Breech Lock Reloader Press to size bullets. My hands are getting old so I want something with better leverage.
Can anyone enlighten me as to the difference between the Lee Breech Lock Challenger Press and the Lee Classic Cast Press? The opening appears to...
I just switched from a Lee Pro1000 to a Dillon 650. Almost all of my dies are Lee and have been 100% to my satisfaction until now.
The Dillon tool head is a bit thicker. The Lee dies still work but they are barely long enough. In some cases, I have to put the locking collar on the bottom...
