I primed about 50 308's yesterday on the Lee hand prime. Today, I've got a sore hand. I tried to prime on the press, but several of the primers did not seat below the case rim. I've looked at the new Lee bench primer, but there is just too much plastic to break for my tastes. The other...

Has anyone used the grooveless 230 gn RN coated bullet? Feeding issues? What company?

I went to the range today with my Colt Defender 45 ACP and a HiPoint 45 carbine. I was shooting Missouri bullet 185 gn HiTek coated. This is the third or fourth box that I have used with no problems at all. Today, I couldn't fire more than one or two in a mag without a failure to feed. Same...

I bought one of the black spiders about three weeks ago. Today was the first time I got a chance to try it due to the weather. I bought it from a local shop for $140, they mounted and bore sighted it and it co-witnessed with my Vortex magnifier and irons perfectly. The dot is crisp and easy...

Last week I took my brother in law to the range. He had never fired an AR before and after a full mag he dropped my rifle, destroying the red dot. I was using a mid priced red dot with a Vortex 3x magnifier. The combination was working great until the accident. I am considering a Primary Arms...

A month or so ago I posted a thread about the Hidden Hybrid holster I bought. I've been using it for a month or so now and, for me, it's the best I've ever owned. Best in comfort, fit and use during drills that I've ever had.

I thought I had all the parts and pieces to start reloading 308. I'm using a Lee turret press with the auto disk. Using two 1.57 disks, I can't reach even the minimum. I have tried four powders, H4895, IMR8208, Varget and CFE223. The H4895 comes the closest but is still .5g below minimum...

Has anyone tried the hi tek coated bullets for .308?

I've been carrying a full size HK 45 for several years using a DeSantis leather holster. After drawing and firing several hundred rounds, the retention was gone. I looked on the web and talked to fellow shooters and finally decided on a holster from Hidden Hybrid Holsters. I ordered and...

Has anyone tried the Galco leather and kydex holster. I've been using a DeSantis leather holster for several years but the retention isn't what it used to be. Several times I have managed to tighten it up a bit by wetting the inside and applying pressure with a c clamp. It only lasts a month...

Has anyone tried the hi-tek coated bullets in 308? I've had good results in 45 acp but 308 is a whole different animal.

Has anyone tried the Thermold mag for M1A?

I just picked up my new M1A. None of the greases recommended (lubriplate. plastilube, TW25)are available in my area. The only thing I have found is Pro-Gold. Has anyone used this on an M1A or anything else?

Has anyone used CFE 223 for Winchester 308?

When doing case prep for 223's, my last step is to re-prime with the Lee hand primer. I recently got a new turret press and I've been doing all of my pistol rounds using the on press primer dispenser. Some say it doesn't work well but I've had nothing but success with it. I've been thinking...

Last week I reloaded around 100 223's. I should have known something was wrong when everything went perfectly. No dropped bullets and every charge was almost perfect. When I finished, I was putting things away when one of the rounds rolled across my bench and it wobbled. I checked several...

Does anyone have any recent information on hi-tek coated bullets-specifically 45 acp, 185 g? Any feeding problems in the 1911 platform, sources, performance, etc would be appreciated.
