I bought a couple CZ75's, a CZ75B and a CZ75D Compact. Both are nice guns.

You might check out some other manuals. You didn't mention what powder you are using, have you checked their recommendations? Some of the powder manufacturers have load data online.

Sorry for your loss, I completely understand. We had to put down our German Shepard a few months ago.

When you size them, are you just belling the end, so the bullet will fit? Or are you expanding the case somewhat? Then fire form the case when you shoot the cartridge. What Mak dies are you using?

I picked up a CZ75B a couple days ago. A ice low mileage pistol with some CGW mods.

I bought CZ75B a couple of days ago. It has had some trigger work and springs done to it.

I tried the 3-jaw chuck as well, but didn't like it. There are some good ideas on this thread that I'll try and comment back later.
I have a couple of CZ 75 clones; which I really like. I also have a CZ82, that is a nice shooter too. But since I bought my CZ 75 clones, I always wanted a real one. Yesterday I bought a CZ75B;...

I just wanted to add that I don't leave much brass behind, except that these Makarov rounds seem to launch; which seems like in the next county. At one of the ranges (outdoor) I shoot at, I'm lucky...

So to add to the initial question: After you buy a gun from where ever, and you now have it in your possession, do you have to do a transfer to yourself? Or is your book the only record of it after...

I don't think leaving behind mismarked brass is a good idea either, that is why I asked the question. Some guys have told me not to worry about it, but I didn't want to create a problem for someone...

I like this idea, but I have at least 10,000 9mm Luger cases. So I'll probably not look for any of them, unless I run across some for free. The nickel plated cases would be a good idea, but I...

I called Wolfe Publishing and they told me that they are planning on releasing a printed index to supplement the 1996 index; which would bring it up to the current issues.
I'm going to look into...

I don't think that they printed an index after that one; which I have. I guess I'm just looking for 1997 and on.

My reason for the conversion is purely economics. I have thousands of 9mm Luger brass and 9mm Mak brass is about $0.18 each. The Luger brass is cheap or free. So for a 1000 pcs of 9mm Mak brass...

Does anyone have an index on CD or an Excel file, or know where I can get one? I have fair amount of back issues and would like to know a little more about what is is them.

I had thought about steel stamping "Mak" on each one. A friend that is a jeweler has promised to make the stamp. Doing this would take about the same amount of time as chucking them in a lathe.

I'm just starting to convert some 9mm Luger brass into 9mm Mak brass. What do you use to mark your converted brass. I could do nothing and try to sort it out later, but thought maybe a few extra...

My wife shoots her Glock 43, sometimes she'll one of my other guns. She just started shooting about a year ago.
We have a Glock 43. Out of all my guns, I don't shoot that one gun very well. It could be me, but I'm not sure. What I would do is find a range that rents guns and try one before buying it.
