Unbelievable

And even more unbelievable is the photo. Taken by what? a guncamera?

And even if the Zero pilot had slowed down a lot, it would still be going so fast he really wouldn't be...

What you're after is an alloy (hardness) and a pressure (velocity) that is soft enough to provide a good seal and just hard enough that it doesn't slump or lead. The Lee manual explains how to...

Gonna load 100 rounds?

First round... the powder entering the measuring cavity is settled by one knock.

Last round... the powder entering the cavity has been settling and settling 100 knocks...

BTW, have you chronographed those filler loads yet? The reason I ask, is awhile back I setup my chronograph at a Buffalo match after it was over and a bunch of guys got a chance to find out what...

You don't mention what velocity you're getting with that bullet and powder.

There is a somewhat complex theory about the affect on windage accuracy and the speed of sound. It has to do with...

BTW, the Lee reloaders guide just out has an excellent section on hardness versus pressure, and it's easy to work out hardness from your fps. Look at the guide's data showing velocity and pressure...

Considering the use of gas checks, the hardness wouldn't have as much to do with possible leading as with the maintenance of the bullet shape. Softer alloys would allow slumping which could...

Use flake or any with flat granules, and that's going to happen with small charges. No matter what size the hole, when luck settles enough flakes down around the rim of the hole that hole doesn't...

We ought to have it covered then. ;)

Just to clarify for those who have purchased the Lee Auto-Disk Powder Measure update kit.... The Lee Auto (Disk) measure when equipped with the adjustable powder bar unfortunately does not create...

You betcha they are very useful marks. AND they are light years more useful than the sights that just have some marks on the slide.

Or shoot 22 rimfire for score at 200yds.....

They both are excellent excuses to say.......

Honey, I gotta go shooting tomorrow to get ready for the BP match coming up this weekend.

Ah yes,...

And the marksman doesn't always know the right number of minutes his shot is off.

Good thing is that we HAVE TO spend time on the range working out how many points on our rifle's sights we need...

Hey BinScotland,
The square steel bar is a good touch for sure. For cheap rifles maybe I'd guess some might consider using rebar? ...;-)...

I'm betting you don't fly model airplanes. ...

Ramshot Competition was the only pistol powder available awhile back when I needed some target loads. I also needed some Cowboy loads sooner than the target loads. The cowboy loads were NOT...

It's not the progressive, but the make and design of the POWDER MEASURE that matters most.

Using a Lee Auto-Disk with a disc and it's far more accurate at lower charge amount than it is when used...

BTW, for those who don't think MVA's advertising about moving their staffs around on their bases would be easy and give repeatable settings, I've been doing it for awhile now. My HiWall has an MVA...

Having moved MVA staffs around on MVA bases way more than once or twice, the only thing that's even the least bit of trouble is finding my notes on the sight settings for the individual rifles. Of...

CSA's website doesn't appear to use the term "vernier" anywhere in their advertising copy. They have sold tang sights before that were not vernier. From my experience, and at $250 and $290 for the...

How to predict longer range sight settings after finding shorter range settings by shooting isn't real simple.

You need to find or work out a drop table for the bullet you're using at the...

A couple of "vernier sights" purchased from C.Sharps awhile back did not have vernier slide markings. After talking to them on the phone and getting nowhere, I realized they didn't understand. ...

When you get any brass that has a significant difference of any kind, there is a good chance (or maybe it's really a bad chance) there is more than one difference in each case that shows that...

If there is a roll crimp required, the length of the case is going to affect the crimp. That's going to affect the ignition which is going to affect the velocity. Some more... some less...

Often when mixed with other lengths.

Marking them and keeping them separate is one thing to try. But test them for accuracy to be sure.

Measuring their ODs is worth doing. And check how...

Stretching the brass excessively to get an oversized bullet into the mouth, then "sizing" excessively to mash an oversized case and bullet to fit into your chamber does a couple of things. Creating...
