I had one of the early H&R 32 magnum guns and the original Federal loads were almost too hot for it. I think it was simply a rechambered 32 S&W long model with no other modifications. S&W has made 32...

Okay. For me it means in my dry, climate controlled house. The maximum temperature swing varies from a low of perhaps 60* to a high of perhaps 85*. I don't run humidifiers, or dehumidifiers, but...

I store processed cases and my primers separately myself. My sole reason is only that I may want to load something different from what I would have previously primed.

I am somewhat obsessed about...

The first 357 J frame I ever fired was a S&W 360PD, that whispery light weight made it seem like the ideal SD revolver. At least until I fired the first shot. The load was a hot 357 Silvertip (145...

Look into the original S&W Bodyguard or Lightweight Bodyguard. These are different that the current plastic frame Bodyguard which only seems to have a marginal reputation for reliability. Most...

A hundred bucks a book. The money was needed at the time and I had read them all so many times that I pretty much had them memorized.

Here's a link to a site I started going to shortly after sellers remorse kicked in shortly after selling my three Skeeter books. I never shoulda done that.

This is a widespread issue for manufacturers and retailers. I once managed an auto parts chain store for the longest year of my life and customers were constantly trying to rip us off on returns. I...

I'm in the process of rediscovering Unique myself. It all started when I was reading a thread on 357 SIG on another forum and people there were getting some really high velocities with Unique. I...

I was going to ask you earlier what powder you were using in the 9mm load you mentioned above.

Because I don't assume anything. Noslers ASP is also commonly used by ammunition makers, and so are some Sierras, but nothing widespread. Black Hills has had a lot of offerings with Hornady too, and...

One brand of bullet that didn't seem to get high marks from Doc GKR was the Hornady XTP, which sort of surprises me because of its popularity for handgun hunting and also as a non-SD general handgun...

Or 9mm Federal?

Lately I've been wondering how well 3D printed grips would hold up.

Remove the new hand and look for the wear marks are from the interference.

You could also have a worn locking bolt from the symptoms you've described.

It's a "yes" or "no" question. They want to know if you will be using any of these bullets in a revolver. Many revolvers seem to get a slight buildup of bullet lube and carbon in the throats they...

Since you didn't get a manual with it, is your LW 1911 +P rated by its manufacturer? That would be handy information to have before ordering the ammo.

You don't. You order them in the size you want. The gas checks are crimped on when the bullets are sized and lubricated.

Before ordering, make sure you contact the seller and inform them that you will be loading whatever bullets you purchase in a lever-action. This is very important because the action lengths do vary a...

I have around 20 stainless Colt 8 rounders that I've used for decades with only occasional spring changes. The followers are Devel, I mean CMC, and I regularly replace the springs with Wolff extra...

Since I mentioned cast bullets, I'm especially focused on bevel base & boattail designs to avoid running afoul of the inner case taper. Not long ago I pulled down a bunch of cast 9mm reloads from...

I wet tumble all cases with pins, using hot water, lemishine, and ArmorAll car wash with wax. I find the ArmorAlls wax keeps the cases from fingerprinting and tarnish in storage, loaded or unloaded....

Another vote for Eds Red:)

Hodgdons pressure barrel is 7.7 inches and is not identified as being vented. So their barrel is almost twice as long as yours and doesn't have a barrel/cylinder gap.

How are you crimping them?
