I'm still working on my ammo display board and am just a few pieces of brass from having it complete (all ammo I currently shoot as well as ammo from guns I no longer own). The one that I am going to need help with is 44colt. Unfortunately I sold that revolver, dies and ammo/brass without the...

Fixed it for ya! :wink:

I'll preface this by saying that I am a huge fan of JMS and as such am a big fan of his designs, the 1911 most of all. I am just not sold on the little compact 1911esque pistols yet. I like the Para Hawg, but for a dependable CC piece... I don't know. I'm still leary... and that goes for pretty...

There's no time like the present to plan ahead for the future. When your nephew is back to 100%, be ready with a pound of Leverevolution and a box 160gr FTXs. Start at 32 and go on up to 35.5. My son used grandpa's ol 336 in 2011. Didn't get to tag anything, but range results were pretty good...

I think it may be the seater plug. I've ran the very same bullets through some Lee dies with no issues. Out of curiosity, are you getting enough of a flair on your case from the expander to allow the bullet to start without much resistance? Here's a recently done 44 w/a 300g Nosler SH JHP.

A friend of mine recently made a display board for the all the various cartridges and shotgun shells he fires. I went ahead a little earlier tonight and put together some components to start in on a board of my own and snapped a pic of the rounds... no board yet though. All the cartridges in the...

Honestly, Tom, just check your brass. I went through a lot of my reloaded and fired brass and didn't see any bulges. Those on the coworkers desk were the first I had seen in person. Just my opinion, but I think it is a product of hotter loadings. Plus, if you plan to stick with jacketed bullets...

Good call on the viper and on the Talley Lightweights. I have switched over many of my rifles to the Talleys... including a few Vanguards.... one of them almost identical to what you've got there... my daughter's youth 7-08.

Charlie, NIB the shop had it tagged for $589. They gave me pretty much what I paid for my Taurus aluminum alloy 1911 in trade. Pretty easy decision for me. I can open the wallet by minutely small amounts at times :grin:

Some coworkers and I have been hashing out this very subject over the last few days as one of them has a couple 40 cases on his desk with the infamous bulge. Last night I brought in 3 .40 barrels... a stock G27 barrel, a Lone Wolf for the G27 and an XD40 barrel. I'd have to argue that that the...

I'm a bit out of my element here and claim no expertise in this arena. Around here, emotions run a little hot and most people who are anti wolf are good at repeating bumper stickers like "Kill a wolf- Save 100 elk" but not much else. A friend of mine used to be a guide (family commitments has...

If I were a betting man I'd be expecting a high cap mag ban to come about and the rifle continuing to be legal. I'd probably be trying to order as many 25 round mags as I could from outfits like Brownells, Midway, etc or pick up any that might be available locally at reasonable pricing.... then...

This one.... 458 Socom. 325gr FTX multiplied by however many you can pack into a mag :grin: I do like those those Remington autoloaders, though. I never thought they got as much credit as they should.

Thanks for the input thus far. AzDak42, based on what you mention as far as the presses' strengths, sounds like I may be better suited to a Hornady. When I do pistol, I'll usually do 200-500 at a time and will also do several different calibers... so not really high volume. Plus I'll be adding...

Wincheringen, I read this from you on the RCBS Turret thread and was wondering if you could expand a bit on this. Currently, I'm in the gutter of progressives with a Lee Pro1000. I've loaded thousands upon thousands of pistol rounds on that press. It can be temperamental, but once dialed in...

Charlie, I have a Crossfire on top of a varmint 243. I was pretty surprised for the cost. I'm liking just about the entire Vortex line more and more. As to the scope, I've been looking at Mildot or MRAD reticles. For some reason, people have decided most scopes require an extra C-note or two to...

I suppose that's true enough! LOL! I know I always cringed (and still do) when I'd be watching the guy next to me at the gun counter ask to see a 710 or now a 770, or even the Savage Axis/Edge (also not a big fan of those) and pass right over a Marlin or Stevens or even Vanguards when they're...

Steve, I think a lot of people have lost interest in Remington and virtually any move they make will be met with suspicion... and that includes me. I certainly won't dispute your comment about "another couple hundred bucks" being a deciding factor nor the needs of the occasional hunter. All are...

I'm still looking at scope options for my varmint/paper puncher AR. A nightforce simply isn't in the cards for me at this stage of the game. I've come across Falcon scopes and was wondering if anyone has any info on them. They seem to be out of the UK, but that doesn't necessarily tell me where...

From the catalog regarding the brake.... "Includes a removable, radial-port muzzle brake that significantly reduces felt recoil. For times when the brake is not preferred, it may be replaced by the included dynamically-matched muzzle weight. Switching between the brake and the weight will not...
