I only use mine for de-priming, before tumbling the brass. I don't think I'd want to resize on the thing as I resize/prime on my progressive. They are a pain to adjust, so I bought a second one so I could have set up side by side for different rounds. For busting through a ton of brass, the...

With pretty much any straight wall round that I load (38 spcl, 44 magnum, 460 S&W, projectile doesn't matter, they all do it the same way), I've noted that when I seat to the proper depth (and verify that with a mic), after crimping, it will "squeeze" (for lack of better terms) the projectile...

I love those 148g HBWC loads for my 67-1. I recently messed around with all kind of load options and settled with 3.5g of HP-38/W231 and 3.2g of Tight Group. Both are easy shooting and I'd have no issues running them all day in my older revolver.

I recently got into the Zero SJSP for 357/38. I've exclusively shot their 44 mag SJSP for years now, and love them. All I've loaded them for thus far is 38 special, so I cannot speak to 357 performance. With that said, in 38, all I've done thus far is chrono them, no testing for accuracy...

"guessed" as in took some charge data from various sites, came up with averages. Lyman stated that 5.1g of W213 was max, 5.4g was +P. Hornady stated that 4.6g of TG was max, 5g was +P. Hodgdon states that 5.3g of TG was +P...you get the paint. None of them align, because they're all...

Looking over my usual haunts (Lyman, Hodgdon, Alliant, Western, Hornady), I compiled a list of "typical" loadings for 125g rounds, but the info is all over the place as they all use different projectiles. I'm seeing depths of 1.440" all the way to 1.470", again depending on projectile type...

I'm using his 145g LRN Hi-Tek: https://summersenterprisesllc.com/product/hi-tek-38-145gr-358-800-ct-box/ I think his hardness of 18 is just too much for a 38 special. I'm getting leading at the bottom of my forcing cone, strangely. 200 or so rounds in a session will give me a nice amount of...

I think I'm throwing in the towel. I did this with 44 magnum a few years back. No matter what I tried, I always had leading issues with my Super Redhawk. 12 hardness, 18...didn't matter. Hi-Tek coated, traditional lube, even Alox...push the hard, push them soft...still had leading somewhere, be...

I did my best to replicate self defense rounds made by Buffalo Bore and Underwood. I know BB still offers a 200g hard cast WC that is cooking along at 1000 fps, supposedly from a Bulldog (and BB states that it is safe to use in a Bulldog). I was using 185g WC from Matt's bullets. Now, as usual...

There's plenty of information on the Illinois carry forum, if you're interested. The main point? Concerning "banned" firearms, there is zero grandfather clause, as-is. We're all supposed to have them fully registered with the ISP by the end of the year...or else. Let's hope the courts end the...

This really sucks as I have a braced pistol. I figured that one day, the ATF would finally ban braces and when that day came, I'd just convert my pistol to some flavor of rifle. Getting a SBR in Illinois is an act of congress and I did not want to carry a C&R license (long story on that one)...

By chance, is that separation near the case length of a 45 Colt? For a very short time, I was running 45 Colt in my 460 and noted that it left a pronounced carbon ring inside the cylinder (one that just happened to be a serious pain to clean later). Long story short, shooting 45 Colt, then full...

of those, I do have Varget and IMR4227. I’ll load some test with Varget…for the life of me, I can’t find and 4227 load data for those two projectiles. Do you have any?

In these limited times, I chose a crummy point to dig into a new round…but it is what it is. I picked up a new CVA Scout last weekend and have located some Accurate 5744 powder, and some Hi Tek Missouri 300 and 405 grain projectiles. looking at load data, and doing as much online research as I...

My Super Redhawk loves the 180g XTP. I messed with H110 and 2400 and in the end, I love one seated to 1.600" over 25g of 2400. 31.5g of H110 produces 1789 fps (that was MY OWN load data, BTW...Hornady does not list H110 load data for the 180g XTP), 25g of 2400 produced 1685 fps. The 2400 load is...

For now, I'm still in the magnum-mix. Last year, I picked up a 460 S&W and was enjoying wrist twisting hand-slappers up until the drought of 2020 caught up to my reloading supply. I know that one day, I'll have to dial it back...but for now, my mitts can still take the abuse.

My favorite thing about H110/296 is that for the most part, it is near impossible to over charge as it fills the case under normal conditions. I wouldn't say blowing up your gun with it is impossible, because that would be an arrogant statement. I'll just say, I'm not sure how one would do that...

Like others here, I do not own a GP100, but I do own a S&W 627 (similar) and have an Allchin mount and Burris Fast Fire III...and it's one heck of a combo. I looks like this is what they offer for Rugers: https://allchingunparts.com/ruger-revolvers/

IMR4227 is one of my favorite 44 magnum powders (honestly, I have few). Under a 240g SJSP projectile, they're very accurate in both my Super Redhawk and Henry rifle. For the Henry, it was honestly my go-to for accurate loads up until I messed around with Accurate No 7, which produces VERY...

Yeah...I don't really load "skeeter" 7.5 loads, no need for it. I'll admit that for my Bulldog, 5g of UNQ is perfectly fine. For a larger revolver, like you said, 6.5 is great. I use 9 grains in my "house" 44 magnum loads under a 240g projectile. Plenty of power and fun to shoot. Unique is a...
