I agree with most that it will take a political decision to push 9mm out of the lime light. If military catridiges were banned, I'd expect the 40 S&W to be popular again. 9mm has too many things...

You might be able to bake them and cure what is there. Buy a toaster oven at a yard sale or goodwill. I bought a nice one for 5 bucks a few years ago. Look up HiTech coatings and bake a few to see if...

I think the powder you use may make a difference. I have some candy blue I really like the coverage. Then I have some gloss black that doesn't seem to cover as well. But I think the coverage is good...

You should try a few and report back. Might work great.

The reloading room was spread out today. Much in the recliner watching SEC games. Was proud that the Razorbacks looked much better this year in their loss to Georgia. Anyway, deprimed 290 rounds of...

Understand not wanting to spend much on one that you are going to leave there all the time. I just figure I'm better off with a rifle because it will be a coyote, pig or ground hog I'll be shooting...

Just a question. Why not a rifle? I've never been much on shotguns myself. I carry a Ruger American Ranch in 300 BO. 1st generation rotary mag. I can just pop the mag in and chamber quickly when...
Sounds like you are a glutton for punishment.

Wow, never heard of anything like that.
I live in Yellville so a hour and a half or two away I'd guess. Thanks for the offer. Don't know when I might be able to, but I'll keep you in mind.

Loading some 32 H&R mags. I'm going to use my Lee hand press just cause. I'm only doing 50 anyway. I'll use the ram prime too. I'm going to see if I can find a Lee dipper to use too. Just have to...
Thanks, I believe I'll try that. Cheap and easy.

No I haven't. Never used one. Are they more like a double action grip?

Thanks everyone. Might just look for a SP101 if we ever see the market ever stabilizes.

I've owned 4 Ruger single actions along the way. A couple of 44 mags, a 357 and now the Single Seven in 327 Federal. I have not enjoyed any of them with full house loads because they beat the heck...

Are you going to use mineral spirits or acetone on them?

That's an option but it's pretty hot right now and I'm having back issues so looking for a easy option.

I bought several hundred 357 bullets at an estate sale that are lubed. I prefer powder coating. How would you remove the lube? Melt it off? Acetone? Combo of both?

I have been, but will not in the future as I have a can now. Actually, I've been light jacketed and Leatherhead 220's lately. I planned on using the Lee's for a cheap plinking round. As usual, I'm...

The 155 gr Lee works well. I think I was getting 1650fps from an 8" barrel. That's off the top of my head. I understand RCBS has a 130gr that might be good for blk. I know you you said you wanted to...
