    Just for nostalgia--it wasn't THAT long ago.

    Forensic Files

    Learned something last night watching "Forensic Files." Did you know the cannelure on a bullet is a "knurl" and holds the lubrication required for firing for a jacketed bullet? The amazing thing was that the bullet they showed had none of the required lubrication in it...

    Things you learn on TV

    Last night, I was watching "Mystery Detectives," a show about actual crime and forensics. During the show, they mentioned that almost all cast bullets in the US are made from car battery lead. Well, I never knew that! They were looking at a case where a man was shot twice with a .308 and once...

    Bullet Puller

    Any one recommend a press-mounted bullet puller for 9mm? Most seem to be designed only for rifle rounds.

    Lyman Turbo Sonic 6000

    Just got a Turbo Sonic 6000. I had been playing with cleaning cases in my wife's old ultrasonic unit and decided, when the TS6000 was on sale at Natchez, to get one. Thinking about using it for cleaning slides and frames, but decided to start with some cases. 1) Holds 6.3 quarts. 2) Plastic...

    Hornady One Shot Gun Cleaner-Degreaser and Dry Lubricant

    I have always wondered if there was REALLY any dry lube in the Hornady cleaner/dry lube. Well, I have a well used para .38 Super Open Comp gun I bought well used for a very reasonable price. I cleaned it and did my normal non-lubrication of my 1911s. Never have needed to run a 1911 "wet" and...

    Squib

    Today, I had a squib. 1) I didn't know it. The slide cycled but the case didn't eject. Since this .38 Super likes HOT loads and this wasn't a hot load. Next round jammed (Thank God). Pulled it out and saw some bullet set-back. Tried another round and it jammed. Light dawned. Look down barrel...

    Notes from the VV loading guide

    I thought the following would be of interest to new reloader: From the Lapua/VV loading guide-- All the loads in this guide are pressure tested according to the C.I.P. method. The maximum loads given in the tables are determined according to the C.I.P. and SAAMI maximum pressure...

    Press Mounted Bullet Puller

    I have some rounds I need to disassemble. I want to save the bullets and my "hammer" always dings up the bullet base. I am thinking about getting a collet bullet puller to mount on my little Lee Reloading Press. The Hornady, RCBS, and Forster seem to be aimed at rifle rounds, though they do...

    Separating Cases for Handguns

    I have not believed that sorting headstamps would make any difference in group size using a handgun. Since I kept reading about people sorting their brass, I started to sort my brass at the range with my .40S&W (Loaded random cases and sorted at the range). I have a majority of Winchester...
