I've never owned a Rock Island, but I own a Springfield Ultra-Compact that is pretty much the same thing. It locks up really tight as well, but still runs reliably, so I'm sure yours can as well. I...

I picked up a Sig M17 the other day. I've never really warmed up to the P320 due to the lack of a thumb safety like almost every other handgun I own. Immediately swapped to my shorter slide and...

Actually we used a hole punch to finish punching through the bottom of the mat/mold. The mold is form fitted to a metal toaster oven tray and we planned to try grounding the tray. We meant to test...

My wife made me some home made silicon "molds" the other day. She pressed some of my cast boolits into them point down to hold them base up. This is for using the ESPC method. I've had issues with...

I feel you on the oddly shaped hands. I used to like S&W "combat" grips a lot. But after I broke my hand I can't stand them. They doctors got 2 of the three fingers set straight, but my pinky was...

I haven't has issues with a loose fit, but it's new brass and definitely not being sized for .358 bullets. I ended up swapping to Universal, it still came out at about 1170. Unfortunately it didn't...

I ordered a couple that came really quick. These will be my first of his mold's as solids. I generally cast my HP mold's as solids anyway. I've never quite got the HP casting thing down pat. I'm...

I'm pretty sure that m&p mold is well liked here, but most shoot it as a hollow point. If you supply the mold number, some around here might be willing to share what has worked for them. Also, keep...

Like most here, I think two powders is the answer. Titegroup should work fine for the first, and probably 2400 or w296/h110 for the second.

Once you have burned through your titegroup it might...

I picked up a conversion kit for my son's 22lr P229 for his birthday. It's a 357 Sig, not my first choice, but what was available. I guess they stopped producing the kits a couple years back. ...

Heaviest I have gone is the Lee TL452-230-TC, which was coming out at about 235 for me. I'm pretty sure that was my first cast bullet attempt actually and made a few mistakes. Though I still have a...

I've completed my first few PC attempts, powder from ptbp. Keep in mind that I'm on the "wet side" of Washington. So my issues with Signal Blue might simply indicate it is more sensitive to...

They are really nice guns, but let mine go before I started casting. I let mine go for a pre-64 Win 94, so I can't complain, but I still miss it. I definitely considered it an OWB gun, but I felt...

If you don't mind me resurrecting an old thread, how did they shoot?

I've had my eye on that mold for 38 Super and 9mm as well, and a brass mold from Mihec would be awesome.

That is very generous and I appreciate it, but I think I'm willing to chance a SWC mold at this point. Most of our 45's are 1911's, and one of the P220's has a semi-permanent 22lr conversion on it. ...

Mostly these days I shoot at a plate. I'm glad to here your dad's experience with his Sig's has been good. I'll likely go with something from Mihec, I've bought a couple of his mold's before. I've...

I'm trying to decide between a 230gr RN or a 200gr SWC.

I think I would prefer the lighter SWC, but I've got a lot of 45's and don't tailor my loads for each pistol. I'm afraid the SWC might...

You just cost me $80 for 3x of the ETM magazines...

Thanks!

A few years ago I replaced all my 47D's and 47OX's with Wilson's flat wire ETM rebuild kits. My 47D's are now 7 rounders and 47OX's are 6 rounders, and I haven't had to replace them since.

I bought one of the 450/400 NE #1's earlier this year. It hasn't made it to the range yet, brass and dies were expensive so I haven't bought a mould yet. But I did break down and buy some 300gr 405...

I've been looking for it, but it doesn't seem to be carried in the Class Six's on post. And once WA takes their cuts, Russell's Reserve off post is about $5 more expensive than the Rare Breed at the...

Thank you everyone for the suggestions, and I've been making use of the 50ml airplane bottles for cheap sampling of different bourbons.

I can say that I didn't like the Knob Creek. It started...

My dad has always been a fan of Jack Daniels, but I always mixed it with coke. He'll drink in on ice. I'm hoping the next time he visits I'll be able to introduce him to a better alternative. ...

George Dickel makes Tennessee Whiskey. Had a buddy in college that drank it, but I never tried it.

I picked up a bottle of Four Roses single barrel today. It does taste pretty darn good, but they are pretty proud of it. After sales (20.5%) and liter ($3.77 per liter) tax it cost me almost $60...
