  1. reloads not chambering??

    You can tell anything you want to know about reload fit with a sharpie. Just work fast before it dries. My guess is you’ll see a smear on the olgive do the bullet.. but that’s just a guess. Always do this when switching to a new bullet profile or new barrel...
  2. Best price on 9mm brass

    The classifieds on the castboolits forum. The normal market price for once fired should be right at $20 per thousand. If you don’t feel like digging around there, here’s some on sale for $32 per K https://www.evergladesammo.com/9mm-range-brass.html Here’s a bucket $24 per K...
  3. Pistol reloading lesson(accuracy)

    The answer to this mystery hit me like 3 weeks ago on the lawnmower. Load two dummy rounds, each COAL. Pull them with an impact puller. I guarantee the shorter COAL is somewhat swaged, damaging the coating. Only solution, if shorter COAL was desired, would be to get more expansion. Lyman M...
  4. Small pistol primers. WTB

    Both Federal and Winchester are running rebates right now. Buy in bulk and it offsets shipping and hazmat. Midway and especially Brownells have been running sales. Possible to get them under $30 per 1k TYD (after rebates).
  5. Brazos Bullet company —— best deal out there

    I cast and coat my own and am still thinking of getting a few thousand of these. Excellent prices and good reviews on Enos forum.
  6. Lube

    https://www.amazon.com/Frankford-Arsenal-Spray-Non-Aerosol-Reloading/dp/B007KBPU02 For me, this is a lifetime supply of the same lanolin/alcohol mix. Then again, I really don’t even need lube with carbide dies and pistol cases. But sometimes it’s nice even if you don’t technically need it. Just...
  7. Best single stage press for decaping 9mm brass

    As you know, I’vd Loaded well over 10,000 rounds on my Rockchucker. It’s probably more like 15k at this point. Sized over 130 pounds of home cooked boolits with a push through die on same press. Tens of thousands of pulls on that lever and she’s going strong. Absolutely lunacy... or meditative...
  8. Best Alliant Powder?

    Best powder will really depend on what cartridge(s) you plan on loading. Even within one caliber the application makes a difference. In 9mm for instance A good combo of accuracy and recoil impulse at a safe 130 PF= Sport Pistol, N320, Titegroup Maximum bullseye mechanical accuracy= Power...
  9. Most economical jacketed bullets

    Xtreme on Black Friday, particularly if you stack with other discount codes.
  10. Free Hazmat at Midway

    Too bad they’re already charging GA sales tax. Free shipping at PV today too, no code required.
  11. What’s a decent press for magnum loads?

    I’ve loaded well over 10k rounds on my rockchucker. That means 30k pulls of the handle and I’m sure she’s got lots of life left in her. If you’re just starting out, I can see a good argument for single stage. Even if you plan to go progressive for high volume eventually, you learn more about...
  12. 9mm Subsonics??

    4 grains of VV N320 under a 124gr bullet is one of my favorites, but never tried it with a suppressor. Should be 1050fps or less.
  13. Loading ashes into shotshells

    Believe it or not there is a company that specializes in this! http://www.myholysmoke.com/
  14. Best places to buy reloading supplies?

    If you like retail prices on individual 1 pound cans of powder of an unknown vintage.
  15. Anyone have quick load?

    I know it’s been 3 years, but did you ever experiment with N310? I’d be very, very interested in some QL simulations of N310 with 124 and 115gr bullets if anyone has fhe software. FWIW, here’s an article that claims QL predicted a modest load of N310 with 165gr bullets to produce over 40k psi...
  16. CFE pistol powder

    If you’re loading 9 major or self defense ammo, CFE is great. If you load 9mm minor rounds, I’m afraid you’ll find it disappointing. Lots more perceived recoil. Make this subforum your friend. For gun game load development, it’s the best in the world...
  17. Thoughts on Dillon Square deal

    Excellent post. My experience differs a little, but is limited, so take it for what it’s worth, I’ve loaded well over 10k 9mm from mixed brass, mystery brass from other people’s guns. I’ve come to believe that the vast majority of case gauge failures in 9mm are related to a bulged base, but I...
  18. Thoughts on Dillon Square deal

    I bought a used Dillon 9mm SDB and a heavy mount for it. Haven’t used it yet, it looks pretty darn old, thought about sending it back to Dillon for a rebuild (costs about $70). I’m debating between that route and just getting a 550. If you shoot any oversized coated bullets, you’ll want to...
  19. Brass Casings

    I’d be interested in the 9mm, 380, and possibly 357 Sig if you’re sorting
  20. New Lee Progressive press coming out in April

    Looking forward to hearing more reports!
