    Tula Lead Free SPP - Experience?

    Grafs offers lead free small pistol primers from Tula. Anyone have experience with these that they can share? Looking specifically for the lead free primer experience, I've successfully used many 1000's of other Tula primers in LPP and SPP...

    New Hornady Manual Available

    There's a new Hornady reloading manual available, 9th edition. Quick question for those that have older editions. Does the loading information reflect only Hornady bullets with various powders?

    Hornady 8th Edition Reloading Manual Info?

    I have an older 7th edition Hornady reloading manual. For the Hornady 230 grain LRN bullets (#12308) it shows a min/max range using Bullseye of 4.5 to 5.7 grains with a COL of 1.245". Does the current 8th edition show this same information for this powder? I've come into surprise possession...

    Just ALOX for 45ACP Bullet Lube?

    I've come into possession of about 500 unlubed cast bullets (185gr SWC button style) with a single lube groove. As I don't cast or have any way to lube them, I'm wondering if just coating them with ALOX and nothing else will allow me to shoot them in my 5" 1911? They are already at 0.452"...

    CZ 75B Barrel Plunk Test?

    Took delivery of a 9mm CZ75B yesterday, shot 250 rounds of my Berry's and Extreme 115gr RN reloads through it at the indoor range at the gun shop. Flawless performance, and I'm very pleased with the overall results. Today I had a chance to do the plunk test with the CZ barrel, and what I...

    Inexpensive Bullet Feeding on Turret or Progressive Press

    It isn't $28 and doesn't extend to the roof of the garage, but here's what I think is a great value option for any press that takes standard size dies. RCBS has new bullet feeding dies that are shown on page 3 of their 2012 catalog (www.rcbs.com). They are caliber specific, and include tubes...

    How Will This Affect Accuracy??

    Before returning my SR9 for repairs to the frame and barrel last month, it was shooting fine. It just came back today, and I have some concerns about how accurate it will be if I take it to the range. http://rugerforum.net/ruger-pistols/49505-ruger-prescott-cust-service-didnt-see-coming.html...

    Hornady LNL AP Broke Before First Use :(

    Received my new LNL AP from Cabela's yesterday and set it up. Spent the last week reviewing all the information available on-line, the Hornady videos, all the tips and tricks from various forums, etc. I was pleased with the press, and the set up was easy since I had all the information in...

    Is There a Hornady LNL dedicated forum??

    Done quite a bit of searching on the web, but haven't come across a LNL forum similar to Loadmastervideos.com. Anyone know of such a place? I just ordered the LNL AP, expect delivery next week. Moving up from the Lee turret. Thanks; John

    Lyman Seating Stems - Which One To Use

    I've just purchased a new set of Lyman pistol dies in 9mm and 45 ACP. I've been told that one of the advantages of the seating die is that there are 2 stems provided so that the correct one can be used for the specific bullet shape you are loading. I understand that the seating stem is...

    9mm 120gr Penn TCBB Bullets and W231/Bullseye

    Received my order of 500 of these recently, time to start loading. The Penn bullet web site indicates these should be loaded to 1.04" COL to start. They seat pretty deep in the case at this COL, much deeper than other 115 or 124 grain bullets I've used. This leads me to back up and ask...

    Precision Bullets 125GR FP - COL??

    Anybody load these bullets? I bought 250 to try out and am wondering what the common COL may be for these. My SR9 will take them out to 1.16", but that's too long. They are 0.570" total length, compared to 0.600" for the Zero 115gr FMJ's. I load these at 1.15", so I'm thinking the Precision...

    Mg 124 jhp col?

    I remember reading somewhere that the bullet body dimensions for the Montana Gold 115/124 JHP's are the same as the Hornady 115/124 XTP's. Can someone confirm this? Also, if you're shooting the 124g MG JHP's, what COL are you using? I'm asking because if the statement above is true, then...

    Problems With Mastercast in Illinois??

    I spoke to Mike of Mastercast bullets in Carbondale, IL on May 31st to place a bullet order. Provided all the information, verified he had items in stock, then nothing. No responses to emails or phone calls over the past week +. Anybody else order around this time frame and having similar...

    Hornady 45 Colt Bullets in 45 ACP Cases?

    A friend that no longer reloads gave me an older box of Hornady bullets. They are item# 4520 250 grain 45 Colt jacketed hollow points with soft lead tips. They appear to be very similar to the current 45 Colt 250 grain HP-XTP bullets #45200. I have two initial questions for the more...
