For me, it's a no brainer. 45ACP. I have a few 1911's and want a carbine in that caliber. Still waiting for Ruger to make that PC45.

CCI because it was recommended when I first started reloading. Or maybe it was recommended because the dealer made more money from them. But either way, they work, so why change. I do have a few...

When I see finned boolits, I just toss them back into the pot. I assume that I screwed up that casting. But since you've already PC'd and put gas checks on them, I'd just shoot them. Just my 2...

I was thinking along the same lines as mold maker that they were some sort of a fabric grommet fastener. But looking at a more blown up picture I see that it is indeed an old radiator/heater hose...

I ordered some parts I needed for a RCBS press and when I asked the rep. where to send a check for the parts I was told that RCBS doesn't sell parts for their stuff. I got what I wanted a few days...

Yep, it's for them instant taters. GFS has them too. The ones with the skins are the best with that thar canned gravy. Now, I ain't sayin' that it's great, just better than most instant stuff. ...

GFS has a decent canned gravy, but it is a big can. Of course, I've only had it after we put a bunch of meatloaf drippings in it.

I use a toaster oven and always preheat. I don't know if it makes a difference or not. I was just following Smokes directions.

You can tell I'm new to reloading, I just entered the depression stage. LOL

IIRC the Henry won't handle Ruger only, T/C Contender loads. I'd stick with the 45 cowboy loads.

I have to agree with this. I wouldn't sell it for fear of the liability. I'd either use it or give it to the roses.

Just another newbe saying that this is a nice place to visit. I'd volunteer more but usually the questions are already answered or I just don't know.

Simple answer, yes, I would shoot them. But in reality, it would depend on the mood I was in at the time I inspected them. I haven't got too of these ready to shoot, so I'll shoot them. Or, I've...

Like you I was only using my Lee bottom pour pot for everything. since I don't really do that much smelting, I've gone the cheap route and went to Walmart and bought a steel mini muffin pan for...

I have a hunch that RedlegEd is right. But that is just a guess.

Frank, thanks for that video. I didn't know that there was anything like that out there. I knew that you could modify the 1911 mags to fit the Hi Point but then they wouldn't work in the 1911.

I've been looking for a Marlin Camp but no luck or the price was way too much.
Forum: Factory Rifles
Still waiting for some one to come out with a PC Carbine in the 45ACP that uses the 1911 mag. I sure hope that Ruger does it soon. I'd of had a Hi Point if it took that mag. already.

I pray for my country every day. It needs all of the help it can get. This is not the America I grew up in.
3.5 gr. of Bullseye for plinking. It has worked in everything I've tried to feed it too.

I've already requested from my little honey at my LGS that when she sees that Ruger is making the PC45 that uses 1911 mags to order one for me.

I've never cared for a 9mm. But if Ruger decides to make one in a 45 ACP that takes 1911 mags, I'll be getting one.
