Well that’s pretty interesting, with the 44.8k psi, since that specific load came right from Hornady’s published data- 1.060 OAL, Unique @ 5.0gr. I thought the pmax for 9mm was 35k psi. Any idea why...

Can anybody run a couple loads for me through Quickload software? I’m interested in seeing the predicted change in pressure/velocity as the OAL changes. Below are the inputs:

9mm mixed brass...

Well I cut the petals off of a AA12R wad for a check fit, and those .323 diameter pellets sure stack nicely in 3’s inside of a blue Peters hull. My cast .350’s fit better as well, stacked in 2’s.

Well as luck would have it, somebody in S&S just happened to be selling a .311 mold- so I grabbed it just now. Thanks for the recommendation!

Hey folks. This may be a “dumb question”, but I’ll ask anyway.

I have AA12, AA12R, and HCD-18 wads. Looking at load data, I see 9 pellet, 10 pellet, 12 pellet…but I can only get 8 to fit inside...

Well since starting this thread, I have purchased the Lyman shotgun reloading book and, from BPI, both the Cheddite and Buckshot manual.

After doing a short initial look through each of them, I...

I don’t mind buying the books, just was a little lost of which books would be deemed necessary for the loads that I’m planning to make. Sounds like I should order the Lyman manual and BPI manual(s)...

Thank you so much for that wealth of information. A couple take always for me are: 1) buy the various manuals, and 2) it’s probably best to just stick with one set of components and find what works...

Hey folks,

I was just looking at BPI’s selection of manuals and see a Cheddite manual, a Buckshot manual, a Slug manual…

Is there a good “one stop shop” for load data for slugs AND buckshot? I...

Ya’ll are awesome. I very much appreciate the help.

Hey folks,

That’s good to hear. I am also a fan of the 870, but a couple things caused me to go a different direction: price point and the recent (last few years) quality woes with Remington.

Hey folks. I am in the market for a good pump 12ga. I would love to buy used on the private market, but I happen to have a $500 cabelas gift card- so that’s the route that I’m going.

I would like...

That is absolutely stellar advice, because there is a lot of fake stuff being...

These dies are older...probably late ‘70’s vintage. By the sounds of it, that assembly will likely work.

Hey folks,

I’m trying to help a neighbor get tooled up for .44 Special. I’ve acquired most of what is needed, but I’m lacking the decapping assembly for a .44 Special sizing die.

I either...

Same. Incredibly accurate, very good penetration, and happens to be my “carry load” over 5gr of Unique. I don’t feel under gunned with this load whatsoever.

Well, I’m going to jump in here also. I’m located in SoCal, and would be happy to help a person get going. I’m a big fan of keeping things simple, and I’m also a big fan of sharing knowledge with...
