I suspect they will make it right if you let them.

I suspect some of the younger crowd have no idea what a “short” is. I’ve had a lot of fun with them in the past. Maybe they are saving money by not engraving that on the cylinder?

Everything about this screams scam. And “ghost guns” are only going to get you in trouble.

Yesterday I cast 1000+ 150 grain bullets for a 9mm. Today I powder coated most of those and then I assembled about 200 pieces of 0.38spl.

More kids need that kind of "Ruining". Some of my favorite memories are fishing with my Grandfather. Can't wait to take my Granddaughter.... She's only 8 months old right now.

I have plenty of Tin, but I will make this comment - The Copper and the Silver in this alloy will significantly increase your "toughness". Should be a great additive to anyone wanting a good hollow...
I use a tool bag from a hardware store for all the “stuff”. Ear pro, markers, tools, misc ammo, cleaning stuff. Lots of choices depending on what you want to carry.

I have been reloading for 24 years now. I have all my fingers and all my guns have not been hurt. I highly appreciate the input and that is why I asked. I have never gone higher than a published...
Thank you for looking it up in all of those books. I am more interested in the "Shooters experience" than I am a super power load. I powder coat, so I will see if I get leading. Why do it? Good...
Lots of looks, but no input..... Has anyone loaded a 95 grain bullet in a 357? I may have to test and report back.
I make a load with a 125 grain bullet and H110. I think 21 grains? (Sitting in a Drs office waiting to be seen, so the load data may be off. It is the max recommended in either my Lee or Speer...

More info please:
When you say “heads”, I assume you mean bullets.
I believe, 200 grains is the original weight John Moses Browning used for the ACP, so that weight would be fine.

I have to ask - why change the barrel? I have never had an issue with Glock OEM barrels. I have a 43X and a 34 that have never seen anything but cast. ZERO issues.

My first 22 was a Browning lever action 22. Not sure the model, but it is now 42 years old and still works fine. I have shot thousands of rounds through it. Not sure if the new ones are as good, but...

No Drill!!!! I use bamboo skewers. Cheap and strong enough to get the crud out. Not strong enough to scratch the finish.
