In my estimation, that is superb shooting. I doubt my previous post will serve your needs since you are way beyond my skill level. Good luck on your searches for information.

To the OP-- I hear you and understand completely.
I had to give up on the heavy recoiling calibers due to arthritis in my hands and wrists.
Now I shoot nothing heavier than 357 mag at all and that...

This boolit allows for both light target and full power usage depending on how you want to load it.
When crimped in the crimp groove it is the same OAL and seating depth as a 150 grain...

I had one of the Ruger precision rifles and used it for about three months as I really wanted it to work. It never did regardless of ammunition used.
I now have two CZ rifles. The 457 MTR and an...
I own a stainless Range Officer. Not certain of the manufacturing process going into the small parts. The main parts are forged.
Accuracy is superb.
Mine is in 9mm. Chamber is tight but it handles...
I own one and have had it for several years. I had a gunsmith put a beavertail grip safety and a different trigger in it. A set of g10 grip panels for better control. Otherwise, no changes.
Mine is...
To address the original question, So much depends on the design of the particular handgun you are going to use the cast boolits in.
A well designed auto-loader will be able to effortlessly handle...
Question. Do the police carry\use hollow points in New Jersey?

I had a similar issue. I got my bad habit by shooting trap for years. In that sport you want your trigger to break right when the sights were correct. I developed a trigger jerk rather...

My experience with the Ruger Precision Rimfire was similar to yours. It went down the road.
The rimfire rifles I am keeping for precision work are the CZ457 MTR and the CZ457 AT ONE. Either is...
The job I retired from after forty years required the use of safety glasses at all times for very good reason. Wearing them while shooting has never been an issue for me.
Whenever I get a new set...

This depends mostly on the height of the rings. The taller the rings, the more likely this is to be true.
I have one rifle scoped with a large front lens requiring extra tall rings. This one is dead...

60 years of hunting experience with a 22lr rifle used on squirrels, rabbits, and other small game here in Illinois. I sight my rifles in at 25 yards. If the shot is farther away, I hold a little...
Forum: Factory Rifles
I had purchased a large lot of these PPU 30-06 cases as once fired brass. They do all appear to be once fired. Very clean with no indications of ever having been reloaded.
I didn't and still don't...
Forum: Factory Rifles
Many years ago I purchased a 760 in 30-06. It was never a superbly accurate rifle but was consistently around 1.5 inches at 100 yards. Oddly, it puts all the ammo I have tested in it into the same...

Bullseye, Titegroup, 231, HP38, and CFE Pistol. Other powders will work as well but, these are the mainstays.
The CFE Pistol gives higher velocities with standard pressure loads but requires a...
I don't have experience with the particular firearm you have. I do have experience with other brands of 92 copies.
Mine is a Taurus PT92. I had issues with cast in the factory barrel. It turned out...
Forum: Cast Boolits
HP-38 would be better for light loads. It is designed to work well for standard and light loads.
CFE Pistol works great for higher end loads as it is designed to give a little extra velocity with...
Forum: Cast Boolits
I can find no discernible difference in accuracy or other performance between bevel based and flat based handgun boolits. A proper fit and lube are far more important than the base as far as leading....
The 358432 weighs only two grains different than a standard 158 grain semi-wadcutter boolit. The 358432 loads to the same OAL as a 158 semi-wadcutter when crimped in the crimp groove. You can safely...
If you try the process I described, please let me know how it worked out for you.
I spent quite some time and effort developing loads for my S&W Target Masterpiece a few years ago. I sized some wadcutters to the exact dimensions of my cylinder throats. I loaded them long so the...
I used to have a S&W model 34 like yours. I found it to be equally as accurate as the model 17 I owned at the same time. It is a great revolver.
