    Ruger SR45 trigger

    I know when the SR series first came out that the full sized SR9 had a very different trigger than the SR9c, but supposedly that was improved. Has anyone heard if the new Sr45 will have the improved trigger? Watching some videos of people shooting it at Shot Show and it looked the the reset was...

    M&P Shield = The new Glock 26

    I was able to trade my xd subcompact for an m&p shield 9mm this weekend. While the gun is very flat, it is by no means a pocket gun along the lines of the Kahr pm/cm series. It feels much larger and heavier in the hand, at least to me anyway. After taking it to the range and dumping several...

    1911 newb, need advice

    Hey everyone. I was at the range yesterday testing a Ruger P345 that I picked up...well I hated shooting that gun so I thought I'd take the opportunity to try shooting a 1911 for the first time. While I have always thought the 1911 is the best looking pistol of all time, I haven't gotten one...

    Lyman #55 powder measure vs Hornady

    I'm looking to get a decent bench-mounted powder measure for pistol and rifle. Looking at these two measures, it seems the Lyman comes with everything right out of the box for rifle and pistol, whereas with the Hornady I would need to buy a seperate pistol rotar and metering assembly? It also...

    Wobbly Hornady lock n load?

    I have been watching a lot of videos on the Hornady progressive and it seems in every video that it is very wobbly, and it looks to be that way because you can't mount the press very close to the bench because of the catch bin. Is this correct? Or is it just a coincidence that all the videos...

    Hornady lock rings

    I just replaced the lock rings on all my Lee dies with Hornady..wow! I am amazed at how well these work, they completely eliminate the need for a quick change bushing system. Makes me glad I went with the Lee classic cast and not the Breech lock. Just wanted to put that out there for anyone that...

    Advice: Lee Loadmaster vs Older Hornady lnl

    Well, my short experiment with the Redding T7 has come to an end and my final decision: it is completely overpriced for what you get. I'm going to either sell or trade it and look into my first progressive. There is a guy that is willing to trade me his older hornady lnl (pre ezject, very very...

    Review: Redding T7 vs Lee Classic Turret

    I started loading last year with the Lee aluminum turret press, and quickly upgraded to the classic model. I enjoyed the classic model so much that I also picked up a Lee Cast single stage press. As a college graduation present to myself, I purchased a Redding T7. Its a press I've always had my...

    Redding T7

    So a few weeks back I was all set to buy a Dillon 550b, but backed out at the last second because I took a realistic look at how much I shoot and couldnt justify the cost. I currently have a Lee Classic Turret and Lee Classic Cast single stage. I like the convenience of the turret, but enjoy...

    The Defensive Mindset

    Hello everyone. I have been searching several popular forums lately and have seen hundreds of threads regarding "which caliber is best for self defense" or "what is the best ccw gun for a beginner", etc etc. I have seen very few regarding the single most important element of personal defense...

    Dillon BL 550 (basic loader) reviews/experiences?

    Hello once again. I have been searching high and low and can not seem to find any info or videos on the Dillon Basic Loader 550. Ive read the info on their site and understand it does not come with the primer system or powder charger. I prefer to prime off the press anyways, and can I just use...

    Need advice on trade: Lee presses for Hornady Progressive

    Hello everyone. This is my first post on THR but I am a long time reader. I wanted to know the opinions of some more experienced loaders on a trade I have been offered. A fella wants to give me a 2yr old Hornady lnl progressive press with powder measure and 4 shell plates (none that I could use...
