With a rest, I regularly shoot 2½-MOA using my handloads at 100-yards with my 20" stainless steel barrelled AR-15 that has A2 sights. Recently, I shot one group that went under an inch but that was obviously not something I can ever repeat. It was a fluke. Am I missing something or is...

The only rifle round I load which uses small rifle primers is for a Bushmaster AR-15. So, in order to best protect me from slam-fires, I bought a few thousand CCI #41s sometime in 2006. These things have been a freekin pain-in-the-butt to fully seat. Been trying for over a year now to figure...

Well, I made it to 1,000 posts on THR. So here's a personal experience that I'll pass along for my grand post. :) One of my home defense guns is a 12-ga 20" Mossberg 590 8+1 with ghost ring sights. It has a cylinder bore choke. A couple of years ago I had a frustrating experience trying...

It was a surprise anniversary gift. I have been shooting a blued 4" .38-Special Police Service Six for some of my really hot .38-Special handloads, trying to keep my 4" 686 and 4" Highway Patrolman strictly for shooting my .357 Magnum handloads. The Ruger Service Six is a strong and accurate...

I read the Sticky at the top of this forum page, ( http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=3738757&highlight=brenneke+recall#post3738757 ) about the Brenneke Shotgun Slug recall. I first saw it in my American Rifleman magazine and decided tonight to check into the Rottweil Brenneke MP slug...

Per the esteemed Jim March's suggestion in another thread here, I did some chronograph testing this afternoon of Cor-Bon DPX 110-gr .38 Special +P ammunition. The impetus behind his suggestion was because I have had less-than-satisfactory expansion results when I have shot this ammo thru my...

I have a 4" Police Service Six in .38-Special and am wondering if the basic strength of the frame and cylinder is similar to the Security Six.

This is one fun package! My dogs wake me up to go outside every morning around 2:30 and this accompanies us into the night. I've got it zeroed @ 30' and the light is brighter than my Streamlight Stinger HP and is about equal to my Streamlight Scorpion.

Today's mail brought me the very nice .243 Winchester brass you sent. It looks great. I'm anxious to get busy loading it! I hope that you got the 10mm Auto brass today that I sent to you. If not, I'm sure it will be there Saturday. This was fun, getting to meet you and work out a trade...

A good friend has asked me to assemble some handloads for his two identical 3" .44Spl revolvers. He gave me several hundred swaged LRNFPs. I've got Titegroup, Clays, AA#5, AA#7, Red Dot, and Green Dot on hand. I'm going to prime the cases with Federal 150 large pistol primers. We've...

In this VERY gun-friendly state I don't see this getting passage, let alone the governors signature. BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF ALABAMA: Section 1. This Act shall be known and cited as the "George Amison Jr. Act". Section 2. (a)(1) Any person who possesses an automatic or...

I previously started a thread about my attempt to find a reload recipie for a friend which would closely duplicate the velocity and felt recoil of his chosen carry round, which is Cor-Bon's excellent 10mm DPX 155-grain ammunition utilizing the Barnes all-copper bullet. I posted my report in...

I've been loading some once-fired 10mm ammo for a friend, and a lot of the cases have a recurring theme. There is a dent in the side of many of the cases, much like you would see in a .223 Rem case fired from a Mini-14 Ranch Rifle. The primers suggest that the 10mm rounds were shot thru...

A shooting buddy asked me to work up a practice load that duplicates as closely as possible his carry load of CorBon DPX 155-gr 10mm in a Glock 29. This is a compact pistol with only a 3.78" barrel, so the advertised velocities for most 10mm ammunition is almost always quite a bit higher as...

A good friend, who attends several tactical training schools every year, brought back a bucket of brass and shared it with me. The academy only allowed factory new ammunition to be used and students were encouraged to take the scrounged brass out with them. A lot of it was R-P and Federal...

I left work today to go buy some shot before it went up (yet) again :( . While in the store I also picked up 1000 Winchester 209s, 500 Federal 150 Large Pistol and 1000 Winchester Small Pistol primers. Haul: 25-lb chilled #6 25-lb chilled #7.5 1000 SPs 1000 209s 500 LPs OTD Cost: ...

I was checking some 12ga reloads yesterday over my chronograph and found something that is troubling. The four petals on the Remington Figure-8 wads are stitched. Of the few wads I recovered, each wad had only one of its four stitches break. Here's the load: Rem STS Premier and...

Today I found out some surprising results when shooting two of my .45ACP guns. I finally have a chronograph with a printer and the velocities I got seem a bit low compared to what I was expecting. Guns: Springfield Armory 1911A1 5" and an XD-45 4" Load: Hornady 230-gr LRN, 5.0-gr...
