    Gun range safety opinions please

    I've belonged to four gun clubs in my life. In 3 or the 4 the rule was that all firearms were to have actions opened and no rounds in the chamber before people were allowed to go down range. There's one place where all you do is hit a light switch which sounds buzzer and the red lights over head...

    Missouri Bullet Code Please

    Greetings, I would appreciate the current THR discount code. Also I am wondering if the discount to veterans is the same or do we get a larger discount and if so what do they need for proof? I called them and left a message but I am sure they are very busy. Thank you!

    What percentage variation are powder manufacturers required

    to maintain? I've read 4% and recently someone said 10% but ten percent is a huge amount. If someone knows what percentage variation is required by law I'd would appreciate it. Or is there any law they're required to follow? I would guess that the liability issues they have to deal with would...

    If 38 states don't participate in NICS

    I just learned about this and am surprised I haven't seen it discussed. The "fix NICS" crap the politicians just passed and were bragging about recently is absolutely meaningless. I knew some states didn't participate but just learned it's 38 states. The states are protected by the 10th...

    Is the Ruger P89 safe with the decocker lever up?

    My knowledge of semi auto handguns is quite limited so please bear with me. I just traded for a Ruger P89 and it has a decocker that apparently acts as a safety too. I'm wondering if the gun is safe to carry with the decocker off/lever up? Being used to revolvers it would be nice if this is the...

    Handgun Bullet Obturation and Leading

    I've noticed many people claim that the harder lead don't obturate enough to fill the grooves and can cause leading. However according to Laser-cast their bullets which are a 24BHN will begin obturating at 11,500 and will be fully obturated at 13,000psi. These lowish pressure numbers are less...

    Minimum load data manual

    Is there a manual of light loads? I know we can go under minimum published loads with some powders in various loads. I'm betting a lighter load than 7.1 grains Universal in a .357 magnum with a 125gr. JHP will be safe. Hodgdon's minimum load is pushing the 125 gr. bullet at 1,400fps. If anyone...

    What is the diameter of .44 magnum cylinders?

    I would appreciate the chamber dimensions for a .44 magnum revolver.I haven't been able to find them. Looked in a couple of reloading manuals and they don't have those specs either. Thanks in advance.

    An email response I received from Lyman on leading

    I'm not very knowledgeable about using cast bullets. After reading quite a bit of information on leading I was still unsure so I wrote to Lyman. Here is their response to my questions: "There really is not a set velocity limit for a given type of alloy. It is a combination of velocity and...

    Is bullet lube smoke bad for you?

    Going to cast bullets has created much more smoke than I'm used to. I end up breathing quite a bit of it and wondered if any health issues are associated with it.

    Does going from jacketed to lead cause innaccuracy?

    Went to the range to try some lead bullets in a .357 that has never seen lead bullets. The first four groups were 4-5" at 25 yards. My revolvers will all shoot 1.5" groups at 25 yards. After four groups the fifth group was good at about 2.0" which is acceptable. I only loaded a box to see if I...

    Help! Lee Pro powder disk only goes part way sometimes.

    The disk on the Lee Pro Auto disk is occasionally not going all the way over to drop the powder charge. I cannot see what is wrong. It is not because of not moving the press lever all the way. I'm very concerned about this as I've loaded several hundred rounds. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

    What'sthe minimum charge for a Jacketed bullet?

    I'd like to make a very light load so I can get my daughter more acclimated to a 357 magnum. My general purpose load is 7.5gr of Unique under a 125gr Rem JHP in a .357 case which probably isn't going much faster than 1,000-1,100fps just guessing. It just a little too much for her to shoot...

    Lee Classic Turret questions

    Earlier this year I decided to get back into shooting. Sold my Xl650 years ago when I got married and we bought a house together. I knew no matter what I'd need a single stage and bought the Lee Classic Cast to get going. I also bought the Safety Primer and Pro Auto Disk. I'd like to use...

    Need 9mm ejector for Peters Stahl PSP -7 Multicaliber 9x19 pistol

    I have a friend overseas with the Peters Stahl PSP -7 Multicaliber 9x19 pistol. He needs an ejector for shooting the 9mm. Apparently it can be changed from 9mm to .45 and back again. I know nothing about this gun. I can send a picture if it's needed. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You

    Anyone ever see a Taurus Model 85 .357?

    The reason I ask is because I have one. It's a 5 shot with 2.25" barrel. This I learned because I was going to trade it but neither myself or the guy I was trading to could find any reference to it. I see nothing on their website either. Any help is appreciated.
