    Kydex, Nylon, and Leather

    What is everyones favorite material to have holsters and belts made out of? Personally I'm very partial to all leather setups as I feel that they don't dig into my skin as much. They also tend to mold to the body better in my opinion. I have tried kydex holsters on and really can't...

    Missouri Bullet Gets more Business!

    Just ordered 3000 PPC #2 .38 special Wadcutter design! I am super excited about this but what I have been loading them at is 3.5 grains of clays powder. This produces a little leading but I'm not sure weather to reduce or add to the charge as it is an accurate load. Any ideas? They are...

    AK47 Education

    Hi all, I'm looking into buying an AK style rifle (in .223, 5.45, or 7.62) and I really don't know much about them other than a milled receiver will be more accurate than a stamped one. Could someone knowledgeable tell me more about the ins and outs of this rifle? Thanks :) -K

    Ruger Single Six opinions

    Recently I have had an urge for the need of a .22 pistol. Looking around on Ruger's website I found the convertible Ruger Single Six. The old school looks and action really brings me to the design but I would love to hear what other people think of it. -K

    Ruger SP101 Machine Marks

    In the Barrel of my 2.25" SP101 there is machining marks on the rifling and in between the rifling. Now, usually when I'm shotting 15.0 Grains of H110 and MB .357 bullets there is no leading. However when I got to a 2.3 grain charge of Clays and a .38 special MB Wadcutter bullet there is a LOT...

    I have been looking at purchasing a new Gen 4 Glock. I often times use lead bullets from Missouribullet.com and was hoping to be able to use them in the new pistol. From what I have read it no longer has polygonal rifling but I am wondering if anyone else has seen this and can verify that it...

    .50 cal bullet in a .300 win mag case?

    I was wondering if anyone had ever created something like the .300 whisper on a bigger scale. It would be something like a .50 caliber bullet in a .300 win mag case that had been necked up. I'm not sure of what kind of performance would be expected but I think it could probably work.

    So, I was thinking about the .357 sig. Is there anything like that in a .40 cal bullet in a .45 caliber case? I think it would be an interesting combination.

    Ruger SP 101 3"

    I'm thinking about picking one of these up. I handled one at the local Scheels here in MN and really liked it. I guess my questions to everyone are: 1: What do you think of the SP 101 3"? 2: Does S&W make anything like it? (I'm not interested in Air weights) 3: Would the 2" be better...

    Taper Crimp .223 Dies

    I am just getting into reloading and made my first 25 rounds last night! :) However I did a little reading afterwords to find out that a taper crimp die should be used in semi-automatic rifles like the DPMS AR-15 I plan to use them in. So am I going to be ok with a non-taper crimp die for...

    High Standard 1911's

    Went into Scheels a few days ago and examined a High Standard 1911. It looked pretty good and felt really nice in the hand too. (I have short thick(fat!) fingers.) What do you guys know about them?
