Does anyone have experience with the training DVDs from "Concealed Carry University" by Patrick Kilchermann? A set of DVDs supposedly to educate the viewer (from novice to accomplished) in the why and wherefors of concealed carry, preparation, mindset, equipment choice, conduct before, during...

Sorry to see the thread closed, but I have a different (related) question. http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=792459 (Reloading for profit) Some people enjoy the process of tuning a load for maximum accuracy. Getting paid to do that would be icing on the cake. Could it be...

New kid on the block (Chronograph, that is) I have been looking at the various $50 to $100 radar devices used for measuring velocity of paintballs, arrows, baseballs, golf balls, etc. If they could measure accurately enough and in the velocity range of bullets rather than velocity range of...

On the twelfth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, let us consider the hastily formed militia aboard UAL Flight 93 which stopped a terrorist attack on the U.S. Capitol (the most likely target). Though disarmed (aboard aircraft), doesn't this ad hoc militia exemplify the Second Amendment...

I am trying to research a shotgun for the widow of the original owner (warranty card from Browning attests to that). It is a Citori Lightning, steel receiver with squared pistol grip stock with high polish. It has 12 gauge barrels stamped as made in Belgium and do not have interchangeable...

Do you lubricate the top end (and if so, where, and what lube to you use) of a turret press? I was recently asked about putting lubrication on the turret ring of the Lee Turret presses, but I suppose the question applies equally well to all turrets. About the Lee, though, in my mind there are...

Rounds per hour: Sustained vs Cyclical rate Just for curiosity's sake and for another thread I discussed the production rate achievable and commented on the claims of some loaders of excess of 250 rounds an hour on Lee's Turret Presses. That's doable. But can you keep it up indefinitely...

Help me clear my mind on this proposal. If there are holes in it, please tell me where. On its surface it seems like a workable idea that preserves 2nd Amendment rights, privacy and helps (helps, mind you) keep firearms out of the hands of those who have legitimately lost those rights. Part 1...

Budget Beginning Bench You Will Never Outgrow for the Novice Handloader I noticed a couple of threads started recently from a couple of members and I thought reviving this thread would be worthwhile. Originally I posted it on RugerForum.net. You can start with $150 and be minimally...

Thanks to blazerbowe for sharing his question on his thread: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=691028 The post-sizing feature of the Lee Pistol FCD (Factory Crimp Die) would "cure" blazerbowe's problem (the virtue). This, according to Lee Precision, is the principal reason for...

I was just comparing presses in my head and wondered how many makers of metallic cartridge reloading presses are there in current production? THe ones that come to mind are (alphabetically) Dillon Forster (Bonanza) Hornady Lee Lyman RCBS Redding but I know there must be more that...

There have been a few posts asking about the cost of reloading and if reloading is worth it, financially (ignoring the education, sensitivity, quality, customization, accuracy, availability and independence benefits). I know many loaders adamantly do not count their time as part of their...

Consider the cost of getting into handloading by comparing the cost of retail boxes of ammo to the cost of that same amount of ammunition bought as components and including the cost of the reloading gear. For comparison purposes, I will stipulate that a typical box of (50 count) handgun...

I know lead bullets should not be undersized for the bore or you will have leading problems, but how much over can they be? I ran across grizzlycartridge.com wherein they sell a 50 caliber bullet .511" in diameter. For a 500 S&W, this seems a little excessive Comments? Lost Sheep

I took my Ruger 480 to the range last weekend and got these velocities. The Chronograph was a Chrony Beta Master, 12 feet from the firing station, using skyscreens on a sunny day. Temperature was around 60 degrees. All figures are in feet per second and were Hornady factory loads, 325 grain...
