    Where To Find Training Classes?

    Tactical Response is located in Camden, TN near KY lake and their classes are extremely good. If you want a no nonsense, learn how to survive a gunfight class, with plenty of shooting I would highly recommend them. They have great prices and offer free lodging. Overall it was an awesome...

    Where to find free lead?

    So I bought a melting pot, and went to a chain tire shop and asked the guy for some old wheel weights, I got about half of a five gallon bucket full and went on my merry way. Later I went back and the guy told me that he got in trouble for giving me the wheel weights because the company has...

    Questions about Bullet Casting

    So I've recently been gifted a muzzle loader that is not 50 cal and while I can still buy the ammo I figure that I might as well start casting my own bullets, both for the muzzleloader, and in 9mm. So naturally I have a few questions. With a muzzleloader how big do I want the diamater of my...

    Gun Friendly States Ranking

    I've never had a problem with KY where I live. I don't own any NFA items but I know someone who does, and he said that it wasn't really an issue. Whenever I've wanted to buy/sell a gun I've just connected with someone via Armslist or FB and we would meet in a Walmart parking lot. Nobody ever...

    Show us a picture of your reloading bench

    Wrong kind of bench ;) We're turning an old railroad comms case (7'x7') into a small reloading room/storage for all my junk. I have a pretty good sized bench out there. Hopefully we will get power run to it before the end of the year so I can move in. Until then this is what I got... :D

    How often do you check your loads?

    How often do you check your powder load and OAL, and how do you check (visual, scale, etc.)? Every round? Five rounds? 30? 50? 100? And why do you feel that it is a good interval to check on?

    Ejection problem...

    I'm using the Lee Auto Disk Powder Measure (I think that's what it's called). I've done a lot of weighing the charges that it casts and it's always been plus or minus .1 gr accurate.

    Ejection problem...

    Thanks guys, Lyman's 49th was what I was mainly looking at, but I know that the results aren't as set in stone as some would say. I'll load 5.5 gr and see how that works out. :D

    Ejection problem...

    So this is the load I've been using. 115 gr TMJ 9mm Unique 5.1 gr OAL 1.140 My problem is that in my G19 the brass only gets sent about 2 ft away. So the brass it getting out, but not by a lot. In my CZ P07 however, the brass feels like it is just barely making it's way out, the brass...

    Question about appendix carry

    Thanks a lot for the input everyone. I really appreciate it. It's given me a lot to look at. I think what I might do is try some smaller guns and different holsters. I'll also try to examine my posture/outfits some more and see what sort of posture those on youtube also seem to have. If...

    Question about appendix carry

    Ok, so let's say that I'm on the skinny side of average. :P I'm using a solid leather belt that doesn't bend and fits the clips on the holster perfectly. It's not a $60 belt, but it meets all the criteria of a gun belt. For a cover garment I've tried a regular t-shirt, and my top of choice, a...

    Question about appendix carry

    So it will still be more than two years before I can get a CCDW license, but I will often carry a firearm with me around the house or when I'm on our property. Now in the past I've always carried at the 5 o'clock position, and it's always worked just fine. I've decided that I might as well...

    Are Glocks Ugly?

    Thanks for all the input guys! I've really enjoyed seeing what people think about the Glock's looks. I find it really interesting how to quite a few people (myself included) it seems that the reliability of Glock seems to directly influence how they perceive it aesthetically. Perhaps I should...

    Which Turret Press?

    I don't claim to have much knowledge about any of the presses listed. I do know that I haven't found a thing wrong with my Lee press. Though granted I've only loaded about 200 rounds on it.

    Alliant Bullseye Price

    Now that I think about it, I'm also curious to hear what you all are paying for your Primers too. I got 1,000 Federal, small pistol primers for $28.50 + 6% tax, but the guy had to go back into the warehouse. It had just come in on a truck earlier in the day and hadn't been put on the shelf yet ;).

    Make sure I don't blow up my gun

    I'm weighing each individual charge by putting the case on the scale, zeroing the scale, charging the case, and then putting the charged case back on the scale. Here's a question. If I seated the bullet at say an OAL of 1.090 (instead of 1.150) and stuck with the original load data (in post...
