Well I finally got a chance to clean my dirtiest gun. A Marlin 60 .22 rifle. The thing always gets filthy and gritty. I broke it down and heated each part with a hair dryer before applying the Frog Lube paste. It melted immediately and ran into all the nooks and crannies and pretty much...

My wife received a rifle her uncle used for big game hunting in Africa. He passed in the late 80's and her aunt kept it until she passed in 2010 when it was passed to my wife. Had it checked, cleaned and lubed and took it to the range for testing. M1896 Krag in 30-40 Krag. Heavy beast but...

30-40 Krag (only rifle I own...so far)

Do you use it straight up or diluted in water? I have a sonic cleaner as well but 4oz isn't going to fill it and it will be expensive to do that full strength.

I saw FrogLube at a gun show I was at recently. Regional distributor for the stuff was talking about how the Navy Seals use it and nothing else. Friend of mine bought some but I was skeptical until I did some research on the internet about it. I have always used ballistol and it has always...

Does everyone agree with this? If the carbide ring is at the bottom of the die then backing the die out will just size the case less further down but still undersize it for the length of the case it does size correct? Lee directions specifically state to adjust the sizing die until it touches...

Conversely you can purchase a .40 S&W and stick .357 sig barrel in it for Glock and I assume M&P.

I just found some 1906 30-40 Krag in a cloth belt bandoleer. Originally it had 6 packs of 10 rounds in it but over time someone opened 1 of the packs and it only has 5 in it. I've been playing around with the idea of firing one of them just to see the difference between the 220g used back then...

Thanks guys, I assumed it was fine but wanted to make sure :)

So is the sizer die sizing to small or is this the way Lee dies are?

Hi guys, I'm a relatively new reloader (about 2,000 rounds) with an all Lee setup. Classic turret setup with Lee dies. My 9mm and .40 rounds have always ended up with an hourglass shape after reloading. They fire fine and I've never had a problem with them but I'm wondering if I'm not...

Congratulations on your new pistol Tom! My wife has been agonizing over which pistol to purchase for carry and after many many range rentals it came down to the M&P 40c vs the Glock 23 (4th gen). I own a Glock 23 (3rd gen) and love it. My 23 was the first pistol she had fired and got used to...

My Glock 23 .40 was my first purchased pistol. I've rented a lot of range pistols from .22 to .45 and settled on a .40 compact for carry. It is the snappiest of all of the calibers I've tried (I've not fired a 10mm) but easily manageable with a little practice. As for price, I have a...

I just started about a month ago but so far: Pistol: 9mm 40 S&W Rifle: 30-40 Krag

Hey everyone, I just started my reloading adventures and I hope to spend a lot of time here learning. I needed a reloading bench in the basement so I built one based off some designs I found on youtube. Modified the dimensions a bit and made some tweaks. Here is a quick pic of it. If anyone...
