    Good bullets for M1 Garand?

    I recently purchased a M1 Garand and would like to reload for it. I have reloaded pistol for a couple years now but this would be my first go at rifle. I am just wondering if this would be a good bullet for a stock Garand. Not looking for match quality ammo but I would like it to be...

    Recommend good fiber optic/blackout sight for SP 01 Tactical

    I have a CZ SP 01 Tactical and I would like to get new sights for it. I would like to get blacked out rear sights with a fiber optic front sight for it. What set would you all recommend. I've never replaced sights ob a gun before. So the least smithing the better. I've looked at Dawson...

    First AR which ammo to buy for reloading

    I've been reloading shot shell and pistol ammo for the past year and a half. I just bought my first AR (first rifle for that matter other than a 22LR) and I need to buy some ammo for it. I don't plan to reload for it right away but I will eventually. With that in mind, is there any factory...

    9mm COL too short?

    I've been loading Acme 115 gn coated RN bullets with 6 gn of BE-86 at 1.127 COAL for about a year. I decided to try some Acme 124 gn RN bullets instead and the dummy round needs to get down to 1.103 before it will pass the plunk test in my two CZ barrels. The Acme 124 gn has a rounder, less...

    357 load has lots of flash

    I recently purchased my first revolver. A S&W 686 Pro Series .357 mag and i worked up a couple starting loads for it and I also purchased some cheap factory ammo from Walmart. I've never shot a revolver of any kind before so I'm not sure what this means, if anything. From my perspective, the...

    All 357 dies roll crimp?

    I just go a new S&W 686 Plus .357 with a 5" barrel and would like to hand load ammo for it. So far I've only reloaded for 9mm. I have a few questions: 1. Do all the die sets include a roll crimp die or do some include a taper crimp die? 2. I am looking to buy some FMJ bullets so I...

    Problems trying get proper crimp in 9mm

    I've been trying to work out problems with my reloaded cartridges not always passing my case gauge. In trying to fix this issue it seems to come down to crimp. If I apply enough crimp then almost everyone will fit perfectly. The problem is when I do that it leaves a well defined impression on...

    Can you add wax while wet tumbling?

    I recently switched to wet tumbling my brass with SS pins. When I dry tumbled in crushed walnut shells I added Nu Finish car was like many recommend. Will that work with wet tumbling? If not, is there something that will work when added while wet tumbling? My first batch is starting to tarnish...

    How to determine safe min COAL?

    I do not have a chrono so I can't test my loads right now. I am using 5.5 grains of Unique with a 115 grain Acme coated bullet. I can't find load data for that exact combination. I was using 1.133 COAL with a fair amount (~4-6 out of 20) that would kind of stick in the barrel of my CZ...

    Question on minimum OAL

    I am new to reloading and shooting in general. I have only reloaded 9mm so far and it's gone good for the most part. Aside from the hobby of reloading my secondary objective is to save money. I started out reloading 1000 Xtreme 115 RN bullets with 5.9 grains of BE-86 powder and an OAL of...
