Picked up some Universal for reloading 9mm Hornady 115gr FMJ and 124gr FMJ. Reloading manuals are all over the place (I have manuals from just about everyone) as to starting loads and max loads. Example Hornady's list 4.5gr as max for 115gr FMJ, Lee's lists it as starting load.

After sizing, trimming and removing crimp is it worth time to sorting .223 brass by head stamp before reloading. I don't for .380, 9mm, 40 S&W or .45acp.

Pickup some Remington 130gr FMJ's and Autocomp at a gun show. Anyone ever reload these components, haven't found much data. Hodgdon's web site only shows Berry's 130gr plated bullets.

Has anyone tried Autocomp in a 38 Super. I usually use Power Pistol, but haven't seen that in about a year, so I pick up some Autocomp. Usually reloading 130gr FMJ's.

I was just given 2 lbs of Reloder 17. Has anyone ever loader with this in a 30-06 with SMK 168 gr bullets?

I accidentally purchased small mag primers. Would there be a problem using them in a .38 Special with 148gr cast wadcutters with 3.0gr of Titegroup.

I have a Colt Combat Commander that I purchased in the middle 70 that I'm thinking about converting to 38 Super. Already have a couple of other 9mm which is why I'm looking at the conversion. My old manual which list parts has the barrel, ejector and magazine as the only different parts from the...

I just received my S&W M&P 10 that so far will be used for paper punching. I also have Sierra 168gr Matchking bullets and WLR primers and an assortment of brass. I can get almost any Hodgdons or IMR powder. Including WW 748. What would be a good load for what I have and can get. I'm more...

Looking for a belted kydex holster for my Bersa Thunder Pro 9 HC I've seen holsters for the UC version that is 1" shorter in barrel length. Does anyone have any opinion on cutting the bottom off of the UC version if no holsters are available for the PRO HC so it will just stick out of the...

I inherited a Rem 742 in .308 along with a couple of hundred Hornady 150gr FMJBT and a about 8lbs. of H4895. What would be a good load for this rifle. Hodgdon web site lists 43.0 - 45.5 while my Hornady manual list 37.2 - 44.0

Found some Remington 210gr JHP that I would like to reload for .44 Special with Power Pistol (as this is the only powder I can find). But I can only find data using 200gr JHP with Power Pistol. Anybody ever use the combination.

I'm looking to start reloading for my LE6920 using 55gr with H335 on my XL650 I've been reloading with Lee dies for my handguns, but this is my first attempt on rifle cartridges. Any suggestions as to what dies I should purchase for reloading .223's and do I need to trim the cases if they are...

Just purchase a Colt LE6920, is there any problem using WPA steel case .223's in it or should I stay with brass cases? Those WPA .223 are really cheap. In price I mean.

While reloading 9mm's with a Lee carbide 9mm sizing die last night as I brought the case down the base came off the case which is now stuck in the sizing die. Tried putting the die in the freezer and sticking a wood dowel rod from the top and pushing it out, no luck, putting penerating oil in...

Just finish washing some 9mm and 38 Spec cases with hot water, Lemi Shine and Dawn. The first bucket of 9mm's cleaned up just fine, the second bucket of 9mm's had some cases turning pink. Made no difference which brand, Win, FC and Speer. The third bucket of 38 Spec. again cleaned up just fine...

My supplier is out of Winchester large pistol primers, but they have Sellier & Bellot and Magtech large pistol primers. Not having used either one I'm looking for feed back as to whether I should wait for Winchester or purchase one of these for use for 45acp, 45 Colt, 44 Special and 44 Mag. Not...

Just found a jug of 75% Phosphoric Acid. What mixture would I make to clean cases before I put then in a tumbler? I've used Iosso case cleaner, but that only works for about 1500 cases.

I'm seating Winchester 230gr FMJ's in a Dillon 650 using a Lyman seating die I've had for about 25yrs. The problem is that the bullets are not seating in the center of the case (doesn't make any difference what brand of case Winchester, R&P, PMC) the result is a bulge on the side of the case...

At a recent gun show I purchased some Winchester 9mm 115gr FMJ, 9mm 124gr FMJ, 40 S&W 165gr FMJ, 40 S&W 180gr FMJ and .45acp 230gr FMJ bullets. Winchesters Components Catalog does not list a recommend length and the bullets have different shape than the bullets from Hornady and Sierra which I...

After loading up some .357 mag with 158gr JHP and 14.0gr of 2400, I read in real fine type on the Remington box that .357 mag, .357 Sig and .40 S&W should not be used with Remington 1 1/2 primers. Has anyone used these, or do I need to pull and the cartridges and start over with CCI's or...
