yeah, kinda what I have decided. I can build a great, light weight, short, braced pistol and have everything I need. Put a red dot on it, be ready to go.

Kinda what I figured.

Looks like a LEGAL suppressor is in the future. If it comes to a dedicated upper, be kind of stupid NOT to go with 300 BO. Shorter learning curve, too. been loading magnum...

Is it possible to tune an AR to cycle with subsonic cast loads? Adjustable gas blocks, lighter spring? Does anyone have any experience with this?

Ive killed a lot more deer with hot 44special mild 44 magnum loads than I have with rifles. I have killed deer with 45 acp. Shot placement is key. Yes, a bigger hole , as well as a bigger caliber...

Used #4 buck in a 243. I forget the powder and charge weight. It was a good squirrel load, I suppose it would have slain bunnies, too. never got that kind of accuracy, though. I was about 2" at 25...

Wow, time flies. Lots has happened in my world since this post. My wife was diagnosed with adult onset type 1 diabetes, then 9 months ago, Stage 3c Melanoma. Having issues with inlaws with Alzheimers...

I think I figured it out, lol. Just shoot my 1911 and 625 with h&g 68 and be happy. Both are pretty accurate. Both work well, varmints to deer. A little harder to get 45 acp brass cheap anymore, but...

Sorry for the thread drift, but I had another thought.
I might be barking up the wrong tree with heavy bullets. MOMENTUM is the factor, and SD. Now, I know that a lighter bullet at higher velocity...

WinchesterM1, that is kinda what I have in mind. Replacement for 22/ 38. At my point on the "journey" caliber doesn't matter much anymore. I just need a lot of accurate( enough) cheap ammo and a kind...

:d:d:d:d:d

Gianni, you are right. I never have been able to shoot ANYTHING as accurately or as quickly as a K, L, or N frame S& W. I loaded 200 grain bullets in a 38 with great accuracy, as good as wadcutters....

Lots of good info here. I wasn't being facetious, lots working against the 9mm. I have managed to get consistent 10 shot, 2.25 " groups with my CZ 75, about as good as I have been able to come up...

I have that mold and like it a lot. I am working with heavier 9mm boolits with a flatter metplat. But for general use that boolit is hard to beat.

I've used CFE pistol, and auto comp, never power pistol. I keep some #7 around. I figure there is some wiggle room, but 1100 fps isn't a set in stone goal. Better to never exceed published data....

right. Buffalo bore probably uses canister powder we can't get. 100 fps isn't the end of the world. Also no need to beat up my gun

OK folks, time to get into the 21st century with a barely 20th century cartridge. I cut my teeth on a 44 magnum shooting cast. Loved it. I later learned to love the 357 even more, although it is...

I used to shoot a lot of Pistol ammo. I can't say I was a pioneer. I followed piglet with the acetone, then whoever decoded bbs and dry powder were a good idea. I will never switch back for high...

Resurrecting an old. dead thread. If born again believers aren't law and order folks, then who is? Capital punishment goes all the way back to the time when noah left the ark.
no government there....

I am also awfully interested in the Grendal , too. Need to look at the 300 hamm'r

I have been a life long student of rifles and handguns. That means I have learned pretty close to 10% of what I DONT't know. I love tinkering and musing and loading a shooting. I head shoot deer...

I have studied this intently. " It is enough" means that is enough talk about this and it was dismissive, like I would say to my wife, " That's enough of that." The sword and bag and scrip were...

I loaded a bunch of flat base, 1r 9mm 150 grain boolits as an experiment to see if I could get lower recoil, better accuracy from my 9mms. The most accurate 38 special load I ever worked with was ...

The question you asked will get all kinds of responses. Some think it is unethical to shoot deer in the head/ neck and only aim for the shoulder or behind the shoulder, or whatever. Truth of the...

I have been getting more and more crotchety as time goes by. I used to have a closet full of rifles, now I have one,well, one and a half. An AR 15 and a 22 upper. Same way with handguns. I have a...

I have used every powder anyone else listed above. Clays/ Clay Dot is my current choice, as is the 3.9 charge weight. Powder type is important, but the other factors like good clean cases, consistent...
