  1. Best tumble lead bullet lube for the $$$$

    LLA White Label (LLstuff) has the same under different name. White Label also has 45/45/10 If you have purchased Xlox or Deluxe 45:45:10 from White Label, these are tumble lube products used like Lee Liquid Alox. Xlox is identical to Lee LLA and the Lee instructions work well for Xlox. I use so...

  2. New .45acp load

    I always start at the start load. Unless you have exactly the same components and lot numbers, pressures will be different than test conditions. I find fast powders and light charges are most accurate. Stay safe

  3. Mobile reloading rental

    Have you ever dealt with the general public? Have you ever dealt with mall ninjas? No, No, No.

  4. Dillon set up

    Buy the Dillon DVD and watch it. In particular, watch the things the technician does without thinking or talking about it.

  5. How do you guys clean your nickle brass?

    Same as brass brass. Why? 30 minutes in 20/40 corn is more than good enough. Can tell you, don't use anything with ammonia in it. I'll tell you why I don't buy nickel cases: 1) They tend to fail by cracking at the neck or body much faster than brass cases 2) They have left nickel deposits in my...

  6. 9MM Question for you reloaders

    I avoid TiteGroup, N310, and Clays. All three seem to produce random pressure spikes. For 9mm, I use Power Pistol for accuracy. For someone who just wants to put holes in paper, I would think that the powder that produces good results with the minimum charge weight would be the way to go...

  7. downside to .357 in 9mm

    If you are shooting coated bullets, be sure to pull a bullet from a round and inspect the coating for any damage. It could be not enough case mouth flare, insufficient expansion of the case ID, or poorly cured coating or whatever. For commercial cast bullets, leading is almost always due to poor...

  8. downside to .357 in 9mm

    If you have a bunch of bullets that lead the barrel, then do a very light tumble lube in LLA of 45/45/10. This works for me with commercial cast bullets that lead.

  9. downside to .357 in 9mm

    And yet, I can shoot 10BHN lead cast bullets all day without any leading--as long as they are 0.357" in ALL my 9x19s. If you can't, it may be a reloading issue and NOT a tight chamber.

  10. Smith & Wesson 25/625 45 Long Colt Load Data?

    The S&W M29 was well known to beat itself up with full power .44 Mag loads. The .45 has even thinner walls and the same internals that can't take that level of recoil for ever. You could contact S&W.

  11. downside to .357 in 9mm

    Soft? The bullets? I doubt they are softer than 10-13 BHN and, with normal bullet lube, they should be good up to about 1500fps IF the FIT is right. That is the only hardness I case and it works for everything (I gas check my rifle rounds that are going even faster). Now, the COATING could be...

  12. downside to .357 in 9mm

    Your gun is telling you, in fact--it's screaming at you actually--that your bullets are too small or you have the worst bullet lube known to mankind or you have damaged the coating. Lead bullets must fit and larger is often better. For coated bullets, pull a bullet after seating and crimping and...

  13. Brazos Bullet company —— best deal out there

    Great price, but for coated bullets, I REALLY prefer the swaged bullets from Precision Bullets in Texas. Very consistent weight and geometry and very accurate. More than hard enough for almost any handgun (at least, up to and including .44 Rem Mag).

  14. What to do with 380?

    Plunk Testing: The solution to chambering problems is to determine the cause: Take the barrel out of the gun. Drop rounds in until you find one that won't chamber. Take that round and "paint" the bullet and case black with Magic Marker or other marker. Drop round in barrel (or gage) and rotate...

  15. What to do with 380?

    First, you determine the COL that fits your magazines and chambers in your gun using inert dummy rounds. Next, you start at the start load and work up. Ignore the COL in the manual. Also, start loads are not minimum loads and you can even go below the start load if worried (except, with...

  16. Scale

    Well, if you stick to RCBS, Dillon, Hornady, Lyman, and other known name-brands in reloading, you will have their backing for any issues—at least for one year. I like my Lyman 1500, but it has been replaced and discontinued. I still have my Ainsworth electronic balance I bought in early '80s or...
  17.

    Odd ammo

    For a semi-auto, you seat flush to just under flush with the case. For a revolver you can do the same or seat to crimp groove--as appears to have been done here. No issue with shooting in a revolver.

  18. New Lee Progressive press coming out in April

    Progressive press: 1) you have no need for a case collator: Hornady L-N-L AP 2) you need a case collator desperately: Dillon 650 3) you are tired of all the choices and just want the best: Dillon 1050 4) you love to fiddle and adjust and don't really care about producing rounds: any Lee...

  19. 4 Simple Steps for Improving Loading Die Performance

    1) Seating die: With shell holder installed (or shell plate), raise ram and hold UP. Screw die body down until it contacts the shell holder. Lower ram, insert case, and raise ram. With case in die, tighten lock ring. You don't NEED to use a lock screw at all, but you can. I too use only clamping...

  20. GSSF 9mm load suggestions

    Wow, and I shoot 140gn Hornady swaged Cowboy bullet in my .38 Supers all the time and they are 165+ PF with no leading. Have no idea about Glock rifling, but 1:10" is not the problem.
