    90% of my magnum revolver loading these days consists of loads well under SAAMI recommendations. A standard-weight-for-caliber cast plain-based SWC at 900-1000 FPS is a right useful loading, and...

    We run several Glocks among our family. All are box-stock, all are reliable with either factory loads or well-prepared handloads. 9mm, 40 S&W, 10mm, and 45 ACP. Nothing made by the hand of man can...

    I also have two D/A 32/20 WCF revolvers--both 5" barrels, one each Colt Army Special and S&W M&P. My go-to powder for the 32/20 revolver went out-of-print a few years a go (SR-4756), so I have...

    The only thing that will cause exorbitant pricing of reloading components to dial back is for people to stop paying the ridiculous prices being asked for same.

    Those Altamont grips you showed above are BEAUTIFUL, no two ways about it. To each his or her own, I say.

    I have seen the 30 Luger swap barrels for the Glock 9mms on sale, and IME the caliber is worth loading for. Starline makes brass for the caliber, and the 85-115 grain 30/31 caliber bullets can be...

    Not specific to Glock 9mms, but for a short time Ruger made their P-89 series pistols with a swap barrel in 30 Luger. I have one of these examples, and I have shot it A LOT in both calibers.

    And yet another. .357" sizing, 50/50 BW/Alox lube. Hard metal (92/6/2) with soft lube has worked well for me in 9mm, 10mm, and 40 S&W for 30 years+.
