So yesterday I was making some of my 9mm range loads. I was using brass Ive used a handful of times (I stopped tracking load times on pistol brass). It was mainly remington and winchester(nato). I had a few random FC and Blazer I had gathered at the range. I was QAing my cartridges after I had...

Im not sure if this topic fits here, mods feel free to move. Does anyone have any experience with ordering reloading components; specifically powder and primers and having them delivered to base housing?

Im thinking of trying some of their 9mm plated bullets. Any experiences, favorite recipes etc?

A bit of a mystery here. I've been loading some 9mm's for a while now with good results. Mixed cases, 4.8-5gr be-86, 115 gr LRN MBC pills,cci 500's, coal 1.065. Recently due to availability I had to switch to Wsp primers. I worked those back up and everything seemed fine. Now I am getting...

Its been a while since Ive shot or reloaded. Today i took my 1911 to the range with some 230 gr lrn catridges i made up. I kept getting failure to feed issues. The catridge would hang up on the case mouth at the feed ramp. Im 99% sure this is due to me undercrimping. What do yall think? Here is...

So Ive owned several pistols by multiple manufactures, but never a glock. Pretty much the only reason is the stima behind reloading for them. Case bulging, leading in barrel, the list goes on. My question is this. Is the general consesus on the topic that if you want to reload with these...

I see that boyds has released a Ruger American centerfire stock. I'm excited and want to get one. Has anyone got one yet?

Today i was loading some 45acp as always. Halfway through i got to looking at my seating die. (Hornady) Come to find out i had the alignment sleeve in upside down. Ive reloaded and shot quite a few like this with no issues. I flipped it over and found the rest of my session was smoother. I...

So Ive got quickload and I really enjoy it. I dont have a chrony however. Ive always heard its very accurate for bottleneck cases but it lacks on straightwalled. Has anyone compared quickload numbers to a chrony on pistol cartridges? How did the results compare?

So...I prefer buying things at my local shops. Something has happened recently in the primer department though. Remember the primer shortage; what a 1 1/2 ago or so? Prices went up a little b/c the supply was so low. Makes sense. I didnt buy any during that time (I was actually deployed so didnt...

I was getting a few every 50 or so from my ar15. I looked at the firing pin and replaced it. No more piercings after 50 down the pipe. Will continue to monitor. Im thinking either the firing pin got damaged from a piece of brass sticking to the tip or some cheap factory plinkers are to blame. My...

How often do you clean your guns? I clean mine right after shooting regardless of amount. Nothing but CLP and hoppes. (Chore boys for lead) If it sits around for 6 months to a year I'll touch it up with clp to prevent rust. I think I'm pretty anal about cleanliness, especially my duty guns. I...

I'm thinking about trading up my pf9 for a 9mm xds. Any experience?

Wow, today has not been fun. So I just got a .45 mould and I cast some 230 gr lrn, lubed and sized them. I went to load them under the gold standard of 5 gr of bullseye. I just could not get the crimp set up correctly. First I was giving them too much crimp and crumbled two cases that I...

A few weeks ago I noticed I couldn't see the cannelure on 2 of my sd rounds anymore. I measured the length with my calipers and wrote it in sharpie on the case to track it. They are hornady 9mm critical duty 135 gr. they aren't +p so they weren't recalled. I probably strip and clean my ccw too...

So I finally made the plunge and I bought some casting gear from midway. Wish me luck. I also grabbed some ww ingots off ebay.

So I just got some lead bullets and this is the first time Ive tried my hand at lead. Ive loaded countless fmj's but I thought it was time to broaden my horizons. Ive got several manuals and quickload. Im coming up with some load data. Right now Ive settled on 9mm Case: military surplus once...
