Try and find a powder with almost the same burn rate as 1680, I found and am using Norma 200 in my 300 blk for the heavy subsonics - I would load as long as an oal as you can, up to 2.25. And at...

One alternative powder to 1680 is Norma 200, it takes a grain or two more than 1680 since its a bit slower, but it's made cycling my 16 inch carbine with a carbine gas system work for 190 gr and...

yah, I am with kycaster, recheck your load data, you are 2 grains over max for that bullet weight and powder. With that much pressure and that quick of rifling the bullet is probably just sliding...

The bright line around the base of the brass looks to me like some failures I have seen in the past on 223 cases after multiple reloads, they stretch and after multiple trimmings and reloadings get...

Bringing this back to life - I had the lee 6.5 170 gr mold cut down by .335 to make a 123 gr ( with gas check base ) or so bool it....I am going to try these in my 6.5 grendel soon as I get a chance...

You probably have a mis marked 50-70 - I would try either exchanging it or use it raise .5 inch in your press.

We had one back when we had goats and cattle, he was great watching over all of them, as well as good with our toddler, he would bump into her trying to play but never was upset regardless what she...

Looks like 5.8 is good to start...

Suppressors are only really effective with a subsonic round ( around 1100 fps ) - otherwise it dampens the muzzle blast but you still get a "crack" from the bullet breaking the sound barrier.

So...

Sending prayers as well, I'm thankful it wasn't worse and also that God made children so resilient and fast healing.

I have two little girls myself, 8 and almost 3, so this hits close.

I'm using 5.7 gr unique with the lee 175 gr mold produced boolits. This is in glock 35,22, and 27.

Inertial pullers will leave the gc behind In a lot of cases, my last resorts is to screw in a
drywall screw and pull them that way.

I looked on lees web site, they don't show any rifle caliber molds smaller Han 7mm, maybe the 224 is discontinued?

I use Titan reloading for all my lee stuff, good prices, no handling fee and quick!

Gas checks i get from here or flebay, and supplies ( lube, lead, etc) .... Titan for lee lube, lead from local...

The military small arms ammo plant (Lake City) has its own primer making facility, they don't buy from other manufacturers (to my knowledge anyhow). This is a panic induced "shortage".

Oh and definitely crimp if using these in a semi auto so the bullet doesn't get pushed in under recoil or while clambering.

I loaded quite a few 300 blackout with lee dies before I traded that upper off. They seem to work fine.

Well the bullies you are casting sound like they are 4-6 thousands over the normal .38 bore size? That might just be a hair to big to go in your fired cases without sizing the bullets I guess...ok...

I've been using the mihec 402-160 hp mold that drops at 159 gr with the round pin in with my ww alloy.

I've had good results with unique from 5.4 gr up to 6.0 gr in my glock 22 and 27. Below 5.4...

I've rented a kahr cw45 and shot 40 rounds, I was pleased with it. I carried the government 1911 in the army as well, even concealed at times. for ccw, I would go with the kahr, much thinner and...

My 50 Beowulf ar kept giving me scope shiners/eyebrow welts until I realized I had put the scope to far back when I remounted it. ;)

I wanted to second or third the notion to use old dryer sheets in the tumbler to pull dirt out of the media...I also use a teaspoon of brasso now and then added to the media.

The dryer sheets...

Odd you mention the satern barrel having that issue as that is what I have...I'll get the Dremel out and look at the chamber and barrel extension.

I've used the mp 502 400 ( which drops at about 385 gr with my ww mix) mold as well as the Lee 440, both seem to shoot decently with lil'gun as the powder in my beo.

I water drop them from both...
