    S&W 460 Vs S&W 454?

    If both have the same except for the caliber, is the 454 much lighter than the 460? I held the 460 for the first time the other day and it seemed big and heavy. I thought I'd like the 460 due to it being able to fire the 460, 454 and the 45 Colt, but if the 454 is a little smaller/lighter, I...

    One, maybe two caliber reloading

    If your doing the Cowboy shoot, the lee loader may be fine for your revolvers, but these bullets will need to be crimped for your rifle to keep the bullet from being pushed back into the casing (tubular feed rifles). If this happens you will be jamming all the time. You must have a good crimp...

    Mec 700 Versamec, to buy or not?

    I have search the net for reviews on the MEC 700 and found none. Seems only a few even say they own this loader and don't say anything else about it. With that, sounds like this is not a very popular loader and there has to be a reason, so I will just keep looking for a MEC 600 Jr, which seems...
