    .243 win question

    Hey there I was hoping someone could give me some ideas with an issue I have. I have a remington 700 that was once a 22-250 and since has been rebarreled for a 243 and I'm assuming all the work that would make this conversion operate. I'm loading a sierra 107 hpbt in front of 40.gr of imr4350 in...

    lee turret press

    Have any of you had your 4 hole turret press over index through the 4 step process? I've loaded somewhere in the 2000 to 3000 loads since I bought it and it recently started over indexing only on the powder through stage. It only does it occasionally maybe twice in 100 rounds. Any adjustments...

    357 sig guidance

    Call me lazy but the search for my question had many pages of responses and not any quality answers. Do you have to treat the 357 sig like a rifle cartrigde? I mean case trimming,deburring, lube,etc... the great attraction for me to reload straight wall pistol rounds is the 4 step process on my...

    more guidance please

    In general do you want to use fast powders with heavy bullets or light bullets? I'm loading 9mm 124gr, 40 155gr, and 45 200gr. Unique is filling cases past half so volume is more than W231, but slower burning. I have titegroup which is fastest of the three but have yet to try any loads which...

So what works RN,SWC,FN,or is this a question with no true answer? Ive' used mostly RS or RN but this is more for...

    unique loads

    I'm trying unique on a few test loads and I'm finding huge variances. The bullet is 45acp 185 gr jacketed HP and start loads are from 4.6 to mid 8 gr.. This seems like a huge cushion. What is anybody else using or is this to slow of a powder for .45? Thanks guys and by the way the search engine...

    w231 or next best thing

    I began reloading 3 or 4 months ago and w231 has been my choice of powder. I load 9mm 40s&w and 45acp. I would like to experiment with another powder but don't want to waste a lot of dough trying to find a good one and end up with a bunch of bottles sitting on the shelf. I know I could be...

    case problems

    I found some cases at the range took them home and put them in media cleaner. They had to be old because of the tarnished exteriors and the tumbler obviously didn't bring them back to a high shine. Went ahead and loaded and went back to range to shoot and many of the older cases would jam. I...

    plinking with 223

    hypotheticaaly speaking if I want to load 223 to run thru my mini 14 do you have to trim the brass before reloading every time or can I just trim the cases every other time? I'm not looking for match grade ammo. I would even prefer to load 223 on a progressive loader because the mini eats them...

    hot berry loads

    OK before you guys slap my wrist I have to ask. When loading plated bullets such as Berrys and rainer do you guys follow the manufactures suggestion on using lead bullet loads? When loading at min. lead load data sometimes the gun won't even cycle, so add more powder and before I know it I'm...
