    License need to exercise fundamental Right

    On October 10 2008, my wife and I were leaving Manchester, NH to return home. We were pulled over by the Manchester police. We were asked for license, registration, etc, and after the officer was not satisfied with our answers, without even calling it in, he asked me to step out of our truck...

    650 Arm Bushing Issue

    So, I've noticed that while operating the press, I get a failure to feed a round into the case arm - it hangs up on the edge of the case arm bushing. I called Dillon and they said there was no way to adjust the press. There's a little screw that the case arm hits which acts as a stop, but it...

    Stupid XL650 Tricks

    1. I'm adjusting the height of the shellplate on my 650 - but while the ram is in the bottom resting position, the setscrew for the shellplate bolt is covered by the shellplate advance cam. Sometimes, when I need to make adjustments to the press mid-loading, I need to elevate the...

    Improperly seated primers

    I'm in the middle of reloading 44 Magnum brass, and have noticed that there have been several primers that have not been seated deeply enough, causing the cylinder to hang up when trying to fire single or double action. I will investigate whether or not there is "crud" in the primer pockets...

    Reconditioning "range brass"

    I was wondering what sorts of tools that people use to get scuffed, scratched range brass in good condition for reloading. I'm especially concerned about case necks, and rims that may have been stepped on and skidded across concrete. What criteria determine whether cases are suitable for...

    Lead RNFP in 44 Mag

    I've got 500 Lead RNFP bullets (240 grain) that I'd like to load for use in my Dan Wesson 44 magnum (6" barrel). I'd like to push the bullets as fast as I can without excessive leading of the barrel, but I don't understand anything about lead bullets, gas checks, blah blah blah. Id love to...

    Delubing loaded pistol brass

    In the course of generating several hundred rounds of 357 Sig, I thought that there has to be a better way to remove the case lube from the rounds than wiping, since you're not supposed to tumble loaded ammo. I think there might be a way to very gently and briefly rotary tumble or stir the...

    New to Loading with XL 650

    So far, I've got the press with 30-06 and 40sw/10mm conversion kits and RCBS FL 2-die sets for '06 and 357 SIG. (the press was bought from a store with 40sw/10mm conv kit already included) Can I order the JUST the 357 sig powder funnel that I need from Dillon? Will any other 38/357 funnel...

    Walther (S&W) PPK/S feed/extractor problems

    We have a brand new PPK/S that seems to have some problems double feeding and poorly extracting. I would like to get some information on gunsmithing this gun, such as radiusing and tensioning the extractor. Information from knowledgable persons, or direction to authoritative references on...
