    Best place to buy 475 cal cast bullets?

    Hey guys. As the title says, where is the best place to start looking for 475 cal bullets that will not break the bank? I would love a 325-360gr HP, but I know that is asking too much! Thanks in advance for the replies.

    Old school reloading manuals. Which ones to buy?

    Thanks for all the replies guys! I have been using the Lyman 49th for some time now, and I very much like it. I just bought the cast lyman manual and an old hornady manual. I can't agree more about having multiple manuals. It's always a good idea to check multiple sources. Sent from my...

    Old school reloading manuals. Which ones to buy?

    Thank you for the replies gentlemen! I have been reloading for a long time now. I do as you do fotheringill. Regardless of what bullet I am using, I always compare across manufacturers. All my reloading manuals, and online data. What I am finding, is that there were a lot of old cowboy...

    Old school reloading manuals. Which ones to buy?

    Hey everyone. I love having multiple reloading manuals, but manuals these days seem to leave a lot of the "OLDER" powders from IMR and Alliant out. I have an opportunity to buy several old manuals from Hornady. I currently have the 8th and 9th addition from hornady. Is there much difference...

    Powder mystery to be solved

    So I stopped by my local gun store today. They had 800x on the shelf. It still says made I Canada at this time. I wonder if it's going to be a slow transition to Alliant. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Silly CCI primer issue

    Oh I've had many headaches with CCI (small pistol) and RCBS. I've tried modifying the decapping pin, and while that helped, it did not solve my issue. Out of sheer curiosity and because it was cheap, I bought a lee decapping die. I've to date never had a hung up CCI primer hang up using the Lee...

    Powder mystery to be solved

    It is definitely not unique. The flakes are black instead of gray, and they are too large to be unique. I might give Barnes a call, but I'm sure they will not divulge any information due to liability purposes. But hey, it's worth a shot. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Powder mystery to be solved

    Awesome info Jim! I knew hodgdon had re-labeled 700x and 800x, but I had no idea that the manufacturing plants had changed. Alliant may not be putting the brown indicator flakes in the powder as IMR was. All the 800x I have is made in Canada by IMR. My local gun Shop has the hodgdon labeled...

    Powder mystery to be solved

    Thank you for the information! I completely understand the sensory factor as I work in a testing lab. I have two pounds of 800x sitting on my shelf. It's been my go to for my hunting 10mm rounds for a long time. I'm relatively new to the 45 colt, and I'm already in love. I'll give it a shot...

    Powder mystery to be solved

    Thank you for the replies, but I am very safe in my reloading practices and always have been. I also understand that companies use non canister powder. This powder is one powder, not multiples blended, although a company could most likely have a type of powder specifically developed for them...

    Powder mystery to be solved

    Hey guys. Been to long since I've posted, but I need some help identifying some powder. A friend of mine gave me some 45 Colt loads from Barnes Bullets. After shooting a 5 shot one whole group, I've gotten very curious as to what powder they used. On top of that, the loads are very very clean...

    Glock 20 MOS with Trijicon RMR co-witness Q&A

    Thanks guys. This has been a big help! I might just go look check the RMRs out at my local gun shop before purchasing. I agree that it look like Glock didn't think through the co-witnessing properly. But it looks like it is going to do exactly what I need it too. I did a bunch of google...

    Glock 20 MOS with Trijicon RMR co-witness Q&A

    Awesome insight guys! Thank you! I think I got my answer. Yes, it's a Glock 40. That was my sliding a post in right at the end of my lunch break. I guess I should clarify. I DONT want the sight and red dot to co-witness. I'd prefer the dot be above the irons and the irons visible in the...

    Thank you rcmodel. So do I need a special vise? I was under the impression that I could use my normal bench vise?

    Barrel vise block

    Does anyone have any suggestions for a good set of barrel vise blocks? I am not to keen on the idea of the aluminum style blocks that are used for the AR15. Primarily I will use the blocks for AR15 style guns. But would also like something to use on my bull barrel bolt actions with threaded...
