    Cleanest Powder for 9MM

    N320 is 9mm is sterile clean. Titegroup and clays, not even close. I've loaded tens of thousands all 3 and can tell you first hand that N320 and many VihtaVuori powders are as clean as they get.

    Question for those with a Hornady Case Feeder

    Even easier than cutting a dowel: drip a Bic pen or Sharpie marker down the drop hole in the shuttle. The stays locked open and will not dispense!

    Best Way to Store Factory Ammo in Ammo Can

    When i do bulk reloading of pistol ammo in the winter in preparation for the upcoming competition season, i end up filling several .50 cal ammo cans with my reloads. I don't bother metering out ammo in small bags or trays, rather, i buy the giant 10-gallon Ziploc XL bags since they fit inside a...

    Bravo Company Barrels, glued on??

    I recently disassembled my new, unfired BCM lightweight 16" middy and had to use a 2' cheater bar on the barrel nut wrench to break it loose. They actually seem to have used some grease on the threads as is common when torquing during installation, but the torque was so high, i think my receiver...

    Hornady reloading manual data low?

    Lol, nice dig but i too wish to keep my fingers in thier current arrangement. My concern is quite towards the contrary though. I will soon start reloading 9mm for some fun matches where no specific PF is necessary and want to load little mouse fart rounds. I'm concerned that thier load info may...

    Hornady reloading manual data low?

    I picked up the most recent revision of the Hornady manual and when comparing thier min-max loads for calibers i reload (38/357/44), its significantly lower than the other sources i usually use. Typically i refer to the hodgdon www, accurate www, lyman and speer and they usually corroborate to a...

    The folks at RCBS are great!

    I recently bought a set of 3 38/357 carbide dies to use with my LnL AP press and upon inspecting the contents, i noticed that they give you a spacer ring that you can use to put under the lock collar to push the entire die up from the preset 38 position to then handle 357 for the same bullet...

    Where can I find caliber conversion sleeves/chamber inserts?

    McAce still makes them. At least, the website is still in existance. I emailed him twice last year to get $100 worth of stuff but he never replied so i presume they don't really care. http://www.mcace.com/adapters.htm

    Corrosive ammo, why is it bad?

    Sinmply put, the residue of fired "corrosive" primers attract moisture. If you are shooting in a very humid climate, you should try to clean your guns the same day. If you are in a dry climate, you can wait a bit longer as there is little moisture to attract to your guns, especially if you...

    Mosin Nagant Scope

    dogrunner, are you referring to the pivot pin hole? IF so, thats not the primary weak point. Its the set screws that you tighten down on that act as out riggers fore and aft of the sight base. THe idea is to induce an opposing force that stabilizes but you just end up tweaking the rail to get it...

    Action type and physics

    Can you actually do that--hold the bolt closed with your hand and not get hurt? Is this possible for the low energy .22lr only or can it be done with centerfire pistols as well?

    Mosin Surprise--Or Why You Should Test Multiple Loads

    Mosin Nagant Scope

    I tried both the cheap $15 b-square mounts and the not-so-cheap S&K mount for the mosin and the S&K is well worth the money. Both use the pivot in the rear sight block for one anchor point, but the b-square uses "outrigger" set screws in the front and back for a chintzy compression fit. This...

    Indoor Range Improvement Ideas

    Regarding facilities, i've noticed that air quality is not always good. Near me is two ranges, one several decades old and one that is 2 years old. Both have climate control issues being hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Not very comfortable bot ok for a hour or two. In one, the...
