Pacifics changed the way the wad holder worked. This part is unique to the Bair reloader I have. Was hoping a old timer or someone that inherited there dads or grandfathers would have one.
Got a old Polar Bair 600 on a garage sale. IT WAS DIRTY but I couldn't resist. The only thing that didn't seem right was the wad holder. I tore it completely down and gave it the scrubbin it deserved and put it back together. WOW what a machine for the time, it turned out great! My problem...
Me too. 45acp at my walmart is $35/100 It doesn't cost me much more than 9mm to reload that. Thats a big savings depending on how much you shoot.
plus it's a fun and rewarding hobby.

9mm/40s&w/45acp/10mm I've been trying AutoComp with really good success in 45. Haven't found the right combo in 9mm yet (its been really cold out to test more)

I usually don't measure either but these were noticeable enough to really see. They should still seal tight for plinking loads but not for anything more. Just really have never seen brass that far off.
I understand nothing is perfect, but that is a huge difference on a small case (this was factory loaded brass). I reload alot of different calibers and none of them have ever been that far off. Also I've never had to trim a piece of pistol brass cause the mouth was so crooked. I went to get a...
I was priming some R-P 9mm this morning and noticed a couple shells sitting crooked in the reloading block. Pulled them out to measure and they were about .010 +/- difference in length from one side of the case to another. Case mouth was cut crooked. All factory shot brass. Never had this...
Got it here in NE too, but to add to my misery I lay here on the couch with the stomach flu. yeah First time I've been sick in awhile. At least it isn't the kids sick.
I went out and got a few rounds of here in Nebraska. I couldn't believe it was 50 degrees! Tonight starts the mess though, Wind rain/freezing rain/sleet/snow and who knows what else will get thown at us. But I got one more day in this year.
Walkalong, Thanks that was it. I appreciate the help. It was a little dirty on the inside from years of use but cleaned up nicely.
Frog, I know I probably didn't need to take it apart but it was old and not mine. So I like to make sure its clean and nothing wrong with it. Plus I like...
This is my new Craigslist find. A Bair Company No. 316 Powder Measure. It is in great condition, no paint chips, no rust, and it has the original lid. It also has a micrometer. That is kinda my problem. It works good but I always like to tear stuff down and give it a good cleaning. Can't...
