    I just ripped through a couple boxes of Lee 358-125-RFs over 3.2gr and 3.7gr of E3, sized .357, and with the bullet seated just above the crimp groove. This time they were powder coated instead of...

    The 358-125-rf is my go-to boolit in my SR9. I tried coming up with a reason to buy a TC 9mm mold but the 125rf just shoots too well for me to bother.

    You're overthinking this. The size doesn't matter. Look at the size of however many boolits you're shaking and account for a little room for BBs and some empty space to shake. That's how big of a...

    I bought a couple Sterilite containers at Wally World with the lid that snaps down over a gasket. I think they were $3 each but they are a lot more stout than most of the other tupperware. They were...

    HeavyMetal, the budget is definitely not there for a new barrel. As for the body count it was last fired before television let alone ballistics so I'm sure I don't have any real worries. I would just...

    I have an SR9 and really like it. I've got about 1000 down the pipe and haven't had a hiccup. The adjustable sights are a nice touch and they don't add any extra size or surfaces to snag either.

    I changed over an 80s era 110 from 30-06 to 243. I ended up splitting the nut on the rifle. I got a take-off 243 barrel from another forum and he sent the nut along for the ride, including pipe...

    Grafs has powder

    Grafs has a bunch of various Hodgdon, Win, and VV powders... I'm sure some of you are still floundering a bit, figured I'd give a heads up.

    TheDoctor, I've never overseated a primer and I always squeeze them to the bottom with my Lee primer tool... The older round one, not the new square variety.
