    RN, RS, or FP??

    Just wondering what the difference between the Berry's bullet shapes are, and if there is one that would be better for me to use. I'm looking at the .40 180 grain shot in a XDm for practice/plinking.

    12 gauge spent casing ejection issue

    I just purchased a Harrington & Richardson "pardner" 12 gauge modified choke. I gave it a good cleaning, and took it to the range. The first shell fired and ejected fine, the second fired fine but didn't want to eject. I closed the breech and opened it a few times and it finally popped out...

    Mosin Nagant numbers???

    I just picked up a Mosin Nagant, I got it and a 12 g shotty for $100, and it was kind of an impulse buy. I've been doing a bit of research on it, and I keep seeing people refer there's as a 91/59 or a 91/30. What do these numbers mean, and how can I tell what mine is? Thanks, Troy

    Working up a load for a 180 gr. round nose cast bullet. The Lyman's manual shows a 175 gr, flat nose start 4.3 max 5.8. Should I just use this data, or should I go slightly below? Also loading Berry's 180 gr. rs I've been previously told that Berry's are very similar to speer tmj (so I...

    OAL/Seating depth question

    I did a search for oal, and came across a thread that outlined the "drop in bbl, press fired brass onto bullet, subtract .020 to ensure proper headspacing" technique. It also lead me to Walkalong's image intensive thread. I understand how both of those work, but my question is: Once I determine...

    Pulled bullets have dings, are they bad?

    I pulled these with a kinetic puller, some of them have dings on the bottom. It is pretty obvious that they were caused by bouncing back and hitting the case. The other ones have a mushroom effect that looks like it was caused during the pressing process. I'm hoping that they can be filed...

    OAL question

    I'm new to reloading, and was given the opportunity to go to a buddy's house and reload some .40 s&w. I got some bumblebee round nose cast bullets. The only data on OAL we could find was for cast bullets was for flat nose (1.125" Lyman's manual). We set a round to that OAL, but it was obviously...
