Shooting kkm barrel in my glock, and my desert eagle 1911 10mm I believe has a fully supported chamber

Alliant reloading data does not list loads for 10mm 200 grain hard cast bullet.
Yet I have heard so many using that very load without listing their data but very accurate.
Any have any real world...

I have read through the stickies. There is a dizzying amount of information. I have the ingredients of beeswax Vaseline and the s. T. P. Can anybody give me the correct amount or ratio? Put this all...

I want to thank everyone that has posted helpful comments on here. I usually find this site of great Help with the exception of muskeg13.
I did not slug my barrel for the simple reason that it came...

I believe the problem I was having with the bullet I cast was to thick of a powder coat.
KKM kinda confirmed my suspicions when they sent my barrel back after a custom throat job of which they...

200 grain rim rock. 5.2 grains of hp38, loaded to 1.2 oal.
Problem solved!
10 shots at 33 yds off a rest 7 in a 2 inch circles with the other 3 just outside of 2 inches attribute those to shooter...

They were sized after PC with lee sizing die to .452
I tried lee lube (Alox), even using the smallest amount a drop less than the size of a pea for 50 bullets let dry for ever. Could not get rid of...

Well I got my kkm barre⁷l back recut the chamber and throated for mne.
I still have to shorten oal to 1.82 to get it to ka-plunck in the chamber which I think is more a factor of my heavy powder...

The more I talk about it, and the more input I get I'm almost convinced it's a hardness issue. At least that's first on the list to change of the list of variables.if

Crown seems to be perfect. Never had a problem with kkm barrels (new). As I mentioned previously it shoots jacketed bullets lights out.

Lee alox "Mule Snot"

Yeah I'm actually using the other lee designed. 45, but I think your right.

I also noticed when I dropped the slide on a live round and then ejected it, there was the faintess mark of a semi circle ring right at the edge of the bullet brass intersection. I have loaded it...

I was going with the 5 grains because of all the literature I read about reproduction of military hard ball round sans the bullseye powder which seems to be scarce as hens teeth

Doing the "plunck" test after I initially had problems going into battery. Yeah I may back off a little but recoil with the 5 grains was super mild. Most of my years experience reloading has been...

Broke down and bought a bar from rotometal of 30% antimony.
Right now I can barely scratch a bullet I'm throwing with my finger nail. Wonder how much of the bar I should add per lee melting pot....

Pretty sure it the softness. Just don't want to break down and buy the rotometal 30% antimony alloy by the time you pay for you could buy jacketed bullets. Lube was tumble lube alox always used it...

Wheel weights mostly, but a mixed bag of whatever could be scrounged. I know my .450 marlin bullets are as hard as a politicians heart. Somewhere in there I've gotten some soft stuff. I know tin will...

Lead bullet after sizing is .452, jacketed is .451.
Hodgdon reloading manual has same specs for jacketed and lead. Have not slugged my barrel. The reason I asked about alloy softness when I started...

Been hand loading and making bullets for years. But I'm having a special problem with a g21 and kkm barrel
Shooting a 230 gr. Swc out of my lee mold. Oal is right, lube is right. Getting occasional...

Looking for small amount of antimony to harden some lead. Not wanting to buy from rotometals. By the time you pay shipping and minimum cost fees its a small fortune. Wondering if anyone has a small...

I have powder coated In the past but it's been a while. Read some post about "Smokes clear" how well it works. It may be in the stickies but I can't find it. Was wondering if someone would be...

The major bullet I will be shooting is a 158 grain RF out of a lee mold.
The revolver will have a 4 inch barrel with a choice of 1:16 or 1:18.75 twist.

Which twist rate will give optimum...

Who can I send my Ruger speed six cylinder off to have it chamfered?
