    Gun Care question

    There are a lot of great solutions here. Than you everyone for contributing. The longest anything sits is the long range guns that only come out once or twice a year (So Far). Even the not so fired pistols see the range every 3 months or so. I was more worried about shooting something on monday...

    Interesting observation buying ammo online

    When I shop at the local WAL-Mart for ammo they have to ask if your 22lr is for a pistol or a rifle if its for a rifle you have to be 18, 21 for the pistol. Really its nothing more than a honor system but its to comply with state laws saying you have to be 21 to purchase pistol ammo.

    Gunsmiths in Tucson, AZ?

    Check with Walt over at C&T. He does great work. I don't think he does pistol work but he can definitely steer you in the right direction.

    Gun Care question

    I grew up in NY with one shotgun that got cleaned and wiped down with CLP on the rare occasion it was shot. I moved to AZ and wound up adding several rifles and pistols to my collection. Same drill. Now I'm gonna be moving to where its more humid, very humid actually. Will this still protect...

    Need help with Bullet lube in cases

    They ran overnight in the tumbler but there was about 20 left with a mix of lube and powder in the base. A little jab with a pik and it came right out. Definitely going to stick with jacketed on a single stage for a while. On the bright side I recovered a little over 1k pcs of virgin brass

    Hazmat fees

    Yeah, last week I was ordering some stuff then I added primers to the cart because all my local shop had was flat Federal's. Shipping doubled, I took them out and a week later the local shop got CCI back in stock. Story had a happy ending butI was just curious though.

    9mm case prep - trimming questions

    Had a similar incident last week with Lee dies and a RCBS trimmer. Turned out the case mouth was too small for the pilot. Finally I said the hell with it and loaded them anyway. They shot fine.

    Need help with Bullet lube in cases

    the cases were new Star line brass. The reason I pulled them was my friend that got me started reloading well before I came here helped me set up the progressive press and we made these. Before I ever shot any he came over and made a couple hundred for himself. He wound up blowing up his gun...

    Need help with Bullet lube in cases

    Need help with Bullet lube in cases
