I doubt you are going to find a much better price than that for any new 44 magnum, and that appears pretty good compared to other Taurus's online.
I personally like 4" to 6" barrels, and in...

I've never had Alox that thin at room temp, not even the deluxe Xlox that is thinned. It's more like peanut butter at room temp. It's all the same when you warm it up, which you should be doing.

beeswax has been the #1 wax added to bullet lube since the dawn of time. There's rounds from the 1800's lubed with simple beeswax/tallow lubes that are just fine. I'm not sure where you read that...

I really wouldn't worry about it. I understand grumpy neighbors are the worst, but Minnesota allows unarmed retrieval of game on other property, the way it should be. Everything you listed is...
Substituting buckshot in lead shot data is fine, many loading manuals encourage this practice. FullTang's method is a very common one. Instead of a Winchester AA, use a Winchester AAF114 wad. You...
Thats pretty good. I was thinking you could only have 3 or 4 max the way your post was, and I figured it was tougher to buy. Really that's not a lot different than a lot of the USA. A lot of states...

I don't know what a lead sub is, but bismuth can't damage a barrel.
I'm a big Ruger fan, but I'm not sure why you would add a third big 44 mag when you are so limited. Why not a 454 Casull Super Redhawk? Or if smaller, that GP100 5" blued in 327 Federal is the cats...

It couldn't do that since it doesn't know what alloy they are cast with.

A Labradar will not work with a patched round ball. It doesn't really work with any muzzleloader. Really a Labradar is good for modern handguns and rifles, and thats it, nothing else.

The Metallic II is basically a turret press.
I see no reason why you couldn't do this with a Lee Pro 6000. It takes 3 seconds to pop the indexing rod out.

This seems like a nice, handy, and accurate tool. Thanks for the work.

I've been playing with it for about 10 minutes, and it's not all that accurate for me. How can you possibly calculate velocity without knowing the bore size? I'm comparing to actual recorded...

You have to be selective on what you buy. There are a lot of piss poor bismuth shotshells out there, and plenty come from Boss. Bismuth shot is best described as very poor quality lead shot. Even the...

You really think it's going to move it multiple feet at basically 15 yards though? I sure don't.
And my point is you have drawn this thread so far off track it has completely derailed. This thread is about magazine articles mainly, as well as any other review online or otherwise of handguns. You...
.415" at least. JT makes them to the cavity size, they drop slightly smaller than that. I'd order a .418" myself, and would expect it to drop a .415" ball plus or minus .002".

My quick math shows 1 foot low at 50 feet is 72 MOA low. And that's with the sight cranked all the way up? If these were iron sights, you would need minimum a .100" taller rear sight, or lower front...
Well sure, but you won't find a 5+ lb trigger on any real accuracy handgun. I know I wouldn't be too happy buying a handgun for hunting and finding out it had a 6 lb trigger. These are things that...
I agree with you 100%. Besides a real accuracy test, magazines should also publish the actual measured trigger pulls.

Some people don't have the time. Even loading in batches, you would be really cruising to load 400 rounds of handgun on a single stage in 4 hours. You could just load 100 here and there as you get...

Wow, that's a nice looking press. That's a lot of money, but it's also making improvements in good areas, unlike Dillon which hasn't tried to do much of anything in about 30 years.

I'm not a fan of the Dillon SDB at all. To be fair, I've never owned one, but there's a reason for that. They have so many drawbacks to other progressives I don't know why anyone messes around with...
