This dude has a good article on calculating that: https://www.wired.com/2009/09/how-high-does-a-bullet-go/

Never had any issues with the Maxxtech, Ammoload, FM, or the half dozen other brands that use this stepped case design. And my loads are often at the top end of the max powder charge, and in some cases over max (though I load long).

That is pretty normal IME. All three of my Titegroup based loads are over the published maxes, of course all three are competition loads with fairly longly loaded bullets. I load long, start in the middle of the published data, and watch for pressure signs while you are working your way up until...

I am a competitive pistol shooting. In the past I was even sponsored by one of the major gun manufacturers. And yes, it isn't every week, typically it is only during the run up to a major match, which is about 6-8 weeks a year. My non-train up period ranges from 100-200 rounds week if I just...

They also consider a shooting more than a couple hundred rounds a hard weekend. If I could afford a Camdex setup, I would buy one, because it isn't unheard of for me to shoot 3,000 to 5,000 rounds in a week.

If I could go back and do it all over again, I would've bought a Dillon 1050.

I remember a report a few years back that they were just then running out of WWII era 50BMG ammo for the M2.

You can find them on eBay. There is a cottage industry that popped up there, making upgrades for all sorts of reloading equipment. Along with a few different ways to light them up. From stick on LED strips to LED circuit loads perfect sized to stick onto the Dillon tool heads.

My Steel Challenge load that is 115gr Bayou RN over 5.1gr Winchester Autocomp, is 132PF out of my 5" 2011 Open Gun, makes 152PF out of my 16" JP 9mm AR.

It seems the initial issue is more he didn't have the scale in grain mode vs grams mode. There is a quick easy way to check that, throw a bullet on the scale. Since you already know the weight in grains it would reach within a grain or two (depending on quality).

Why? A 3lb trigger isn't that much. Hell my competition guns use a 5lb trigger.

Do you have some way of verifying the paperwork is actually legal? This "Your papers please?" attitude that has permeated America in the last few years is getting kind of annoying.

Again the rules say, "Finger outside the trigger guard," it doesn't specify where it should be outside of that. So as long as the finger is outside the guard the SO/RO shouldn't be DQing a person if they don't embrace the finger on the frame. If an RO/SO feels that it isn't good enough, he...

I agree I keep my finger high up on the frame, but we aren't here to write our own rules. We simply are here to enforce the rules as they are written. Again, this makes the safe area unusable while the match is going on. Which is among the reasons why it should be moved. The safe area isn't...

Unless the rules have changed, it simply says that your finger must be outside the trigger guard, which reads as finger on the trigger guard as an allowed spot. That is simply a bad place for a safe area, and needs to be addressed, rather then people kicked out. Every safe area I've used point...

Why would you do that? Did you want another place where you couldn't carry? Anyways that is why it's important to have some level of a firewall between your work, your hobbies, and your online identity. Companies using internet search services are becoming increasingly common. I never tell...

Florida has no laws relating to ammo shipments.

In Florida, if you hold a valid CWP you can legally keep your gun in your car, out of sight, and they can't fire you, with these exceptions: * Schools; * Correctional institutions; * Nuclear-powered electricity generation facilities; * Properties where substantial activities are conducted...

Any non-sporting firearm over .50 caliber would be classified as a destructive device, and regulated by the National Firearms Act. As far as ammo, they likely custom make the cases, bullets, and hand load them. But it's probably pretty rare that they shoot them, if ever. Only if you don't...
