    School me on Chrony's.

    What do I need to know about the differences. All I'm looking for is one to check the speed of rifle/pistol rounds, don't really care about saving the readings or printing them out. Just something simple. Alpha, Beta, Gamma, ... - I read differences but are all made equal? ~$100 range...

    WC842 / CFE223 Load

    I picked up some WC842 and I am starting up a load. From my understanding it is the same so my question is does anyone have any loads for this? I plan on starting with the published data but figured I would see if anyone has any experience. 26gn min 27.8gn max I'll probably start around...

    Splitting powder

    Hey guys, A friend and I are going in on a pretty big keg of powder. What would be the best way to split this up? Old 8lb kegs if I can find them? Even if they are different powder, just label them right? Just trying to work out some ideas.

    Another "What's it worth?" Thread

    I picked up a ton of reloading gear and I am now going through the process of parting it out. I finished the dies but ran across these three presses. I'm not sure how much they are worth. I'm in the process of cleaning up the mean green machine, sorry for the crappy pictures. Press 1...

    Thick Plating. Good or Bad?

    I normally run 200gn .451 RN. I can't really find a good constiant source for 200gn so I am bumping up my load for 230gn. I found some plated bullets for a pretty good price but the description says it is thicker plating than on other plated bullets he has seen. So, is that a good thing...

    How Accurate is your Lee Auto Disk Powder Measure Pro w/ Adjustable Charge Bar

    Edit: I just edited the title. I had the term wrong. I am using the auto disk pro with the adjustable charge bar mounted on the turret press. This is the second one I have owned. The last one I sold many years ago and I can't remember if it had this same problem or not. I don't think it...

    Shooting glasses fogging up in the summer, Do yours?

    So I was shooting a 3 gun match last month and my glasses fogged up pretty good on the 200 yard range. SOOO, how do you guys keep your glasses from fogging up? Maybe a little bit of Fog-X?

    1 to 1.5 gn make a difference?

    I just picked up around 500 45 cal 205 grain bullets. The problem is most are 204.9 to 205.4. Not a big deal. About 150 are 206 to 206.7ish. Is there a big difference to load them all as 205s?

    Has your Lee pro auto disk turned off by it's self?

    I had my first reloading mishap tonight. I caught it after about 20 rounds but I am going to pull them all. Heres my issue, I measured my first 3 charges, all perfect, then I started production. I got to 10 and measured again, still good. At some point between 10 and 20 my auto disk moved to...

    RCBS Trimmer Wobble

    Hey guys, this is my first trimmer so I'm not sure if this is normal or not. There is a slight wobble in the rod. I took a couple of videos of the adjustment knob so you can see what I'm talking about. I have the 3 way cutter, if I lower the deburr tool too much then it will cut into half of...

    Which die do I need?

    Hey guys, I searched a bit but can't find a clear answer. I'm new to reloading rifle but not new to reloading. I have a lee classic with the pace setter 223 dies. I also have the lee powder pro attachment. Is the universal charging die the one I need or did I miss the boat completely and...

    Which Trimmer? Hornady or Lyman?

    I just bought the Hornday Cam-Lock trimmer but I'm not sure its the one I want. The other one I am looking at is the Lyman universal. The universal has a pilot holder and seems to have better mounts than the hornady. If you had to pick, which one would you go with? Also, this is my first...

    My New Toy :)

    After a lot of research and the pluses and minuses vs different brands I went with a local sale and got a Stag Model 2. The gun, six 30 round mags, and 200 rounds of .223 for $800. All and all I think I got a pretty good deal. The way I figured it up is 25 buck a mag and around 120 bucks for...

    Letter written to my University and TN Government

    This is a split between General or Legal so if I am posting this in the wrong spot, please move it. Yesterday I sat down and figured that I would write a letter to the president of my school here in Memphis. As I did, I figured I would foward it on to President Bush, Sen. Corker, and Sen...

    Skeet Ammo

    I've been around guns my whole life but I've never been skeet shooting. A few people are going tomorrow morning only I'm not sure on the ammo. I'm guessing just normal bird shot should do the trick but I want to make sure. So, what ammo is best for a new skeet shooter?

    .223 Frangible Bullets?

    I have been reloading pistol ammo for a while but I might be about to acquire a .223 / 5.56 M4. The local range is an indoor range that requires frangible ammo. I found some on midway but as with everything, I'm sure its cheaper reloading it. So, two part question: 1) Which bullets for...

    P-32 vs P3AT (A different question)

    DISCLAIMER: This is not a "Is the P3AT better than the P-32" thread. Read below. At a local range they have both a P-32 and a P3AT both gently used. I am going up there today and going to buy one of them. WHICH ONE? :what: OK, the P-32 asking price is $200 and the P3AT asking price...

    Video Proof of Bad Gun Handeling by a Cop.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Okpa_StzUcQ Wow...And that the point of the video is that she stood her ground while others were "running for cover" while someone was shooting at them is just stupid.
