I have a clean 9mm SDB with with one seating stem, I think it’s FP. Includes roller handle, Dillon tool holder and wrench. I’m asking $350.00 includes USPS shipping. Continental US only. I’ll take...

I load my .40 the same oal for 165 and 180 grain rnfp and jacketed bullets. But, I worked up the loads until I found what was safe/accurate for my gun. May not work in yours, they don't in my buddy's...

Update: shot 100 rounds today with no leading! I'm pushing 1,200 FPS with SA XDM 5.5 9mm. Just one question. The three bullets in the middle, is that too much lead showing or don't worry about it and...

We are supposed to have nice weather this weekend so hopefully I can shoot these. Can't wait :Fire:

I forgot to say that I dropped them in water right out of the oven - got the idea from watching Elvis ammo's videos too. I'm gonna try less powder and see how that goes.

Thanks the comments. I'll let you know how they shoot!

Hi all, here are a few images of my first try at powder coating. I used the "dump on the tray method" don't have the patience to stand each bullet on end! The powder is Ford blue from Eastwood. I...
Judas Priest you guys, give him a break! He did exactly what many on this forum have said to do "contact the manufacturer." I got the same response from Alliant when I asked about load data for a 40...

I was looking at a Cub Cadet yesterday at the farm store-I may buy one of those instead of buying blades for the Husqvarna!

I am not hitting anything but grass, a couple of dandelions, a bunch of grass hoppers and an occasional bee that's on a weed. No sticks, twigs, rocks, gravel, meteorites or other hard natural or...

I'm not saying the blades wear out-I'm saying the blades are so dull half way through the cutting that the grass is being ripped instead of cut! NO ROCKS!

Sorry it took so long to respond but work comes first! Lots of good info here. A little more about my lawn... not that great, but not many weeds, no gravel, a lot of dust but nothing to damage the...

I'm tired of sharpening the blades every time I mow the lawn! I replaced the blades on my 2004 Husqvarna lawn tractor with "commercial quality" blades, but after mowing about one acre they're dull......

I put an LED inside a .45 Colt case for my 3 SDB's. It works well for 9mm, and 40 S&W, but the .357 mag case is too tall and doesn't work as we'll. I'm going to try some of the 5mm super bright LEDs...

Yes, Leadman. All of the bullets pass the smash/acetone test, and that's why the leading issue is so frustrating. For now, I'm just coating 9mm and using copperplated for the 40 S&W until I can...

Kroygen-I'm using range scrap that's between 15-16 BHN. All of the bullets age for several weeks before I load them. I'll try the water drop on the next batch and see what happens.

Pat- I slugged the 9mm at .356. I've tried .357 & .358 with the same results. I think the bullets for the 40 are .401 or .402, don't remember. I'm going to try some commercially coated bullets and...
