Hey Gang, How much Accurate 2400 will the small powder bar throw? I know it's suppose to throw '2.1 to 15 grains of powder' but how much 2400 are ya'll actually getting out of it? I'm wondering if I'm going to need to put the large bar in to run my 45 Colt loads. Thanks in advance...

Just in case ya'll haven't already seen this.......... It looks like RCBS wants part of Dillon's market on bench mounted primer pocket swagers. RCBS 'New Products For 2012' RCBS® Primer Pocket Swager – Bench Tool (page 4 of this pdf file) This may give an idea of what they will be...

I need to bother ya'll again..... I have reamed out the undersize throats on my 45 Ruger Blackhawk Convertible and I'm tickled with how that turned out. When I bought the stuff to do the throats I also got the .38-.45 Basic Chamfering Kit and centering bushings to change the forcing cone to an...

Hey Ya'll, I've reamed out the throats on both of the cylinders for my 45 Convertible and I need some advice. Do the throats need to be re-blued? If it is necessary can I do it with a cold blue kit or would that even survive being shot? Thanks in advance for your help. Seedtick :)

Welp, it's me again..... This is a follow up to a couple of the earlier questions I had about Wolf primers, in general, and about the leaking Winchester primers. We had some 'leaks' with the new lot number of Winchester primers. :fire: :banghead: The good news is that the Remington...

We're putting together a shopping list for a powder and primer order from Powder Valley. I keep looking at the $15.50 per thousand price tag on those Wolf primers and wondering, why ain't I already shooting these cheap suckers? At this price you can almost get twice as many for the same $$. Is...

Okay, help me out here Gentlemen. My son-in-law picked up a new Ruger Super Redhawk in 44 Mag a few weeks ago. We started working up some loads using PowerBond 240 grain Flat Points we got from Rocky Mountain Reloading and 240 grain LSWC, Elmer K's, BHN 18 from Missouri Bullet Company. For...

Has anyone had a chance to try any of this newish offering from Alliant? If so, what have you found? Does it live up to their claims? :scrutiny: 357mag - more than 400 fps over A2400 for 125 grain Gold Dot. 357mag - nearly 600 fps over A2400 for 158 grain Gold Dot. Sure would be...

Any of ya'll have any experience with this bullet? Remington 158 Grain Semi-Jacketed Hollow Point What do you think about them? Do they perform okay at both 38 special and 357 velocities or are they better at one than the other? I figure there are probably some better choices now...

I have a question or two about the cannelure tool made by CH 4D. I want to use some 45 acp bullets, Zero 230 gr JHP, and load a few +P 45 Colt loads to shoot out of my NM Blackhawk. I won't be doing a lot of bullets cause Brad's Cowboy #1's just shoot to good (and cheaper to boot) but I...

Greetings Ya'll, I have a good friend who is wanting to sell off his Redhawk. He wanted me to see what ya'll thought it might be worth. It is a 7 1/2" stainless gun with the target gray finish. He has the original box, grips, scope rings and the paper work that came with it. It is also...

Okay ya'll, what is up with this bullet? Bubble Butt Bullet I'm sure it serves a very specific purpose but I don't know what. :confused: Enlighten me please. Seedtick :)

Greetings Ya'll, Have you ever used Accurate #9 in 9mm? I found a recipe in both Speer 12th and 13th edition reloading manuals. The particulars are - 125 grain Jacketed bullet 1.135" overall length Accurate #9 start 9.4 grains max 10.5 grains compressed I would have thought...

Hey Guys, What COAL are you using with Missouri Bullet's 95 grain LRN? Do you leave any of that last driving band sticking out of the case? I've been leaving about .015" of it out but it looks better, to me anyway, seated flush. They will hand cycle, dummy load, fine either way but they...

Greetings Ya'll, I have a new toy to play with, a 6 1/2" NM Blackhawk Convertible in .357/.38 and 9mm. :D Can't wait to try it out. My Lyman's 49th says to use a CCI 550 small pistol magnum primer with every .357 load, at least that's the way I read it. That goes against everything ya'll...

Generally speaking, regarding turret or progressive presses - if you had 2 presses of the same make and model would the turret or top plate be interchangeable between both. Let me see if I can make that easier to understand, if you set up a turret or top plate on press 'A' could you then put it...

Hey Guys, Does anyone have any experience with PMC's Starfire Bullets? I ran across these the other day and thought I would try some. I've never shot any before either in handloads or factory ammo. I would like to try some Gold Dots in 380 but at the moment they are quite ellusive. :mad...

I'm trying to figure out what my next toy should be. I've always been partial to revolvers and I sure would like one in .357. I had a Colt Anaconda .44 mag, traded it off :banghead:, but it wasn't all that fun to shoot. It was so LOUD but it wasn't the loud part I didn't like it was the tone of...

No primer shortage in Tulsa. http://dongsguns.com/Products.asp?cat=14 I added them up this morning and he shows to have over 230,000 primers in stock. :eek: I realize that is not an exuberant amount but it is more than I've seen in any one place in a long time. I've watched his 'in stock'...

Gentlemen, What is the purpose of a hollow base pistol bullet? ST
