      Who Has a C&R License ?

      Midway does not longer have a dealer's pricing , Grafs and Sons does not accept C&R for new dealers accounts , Brownells does but the discounts are good mostly for gunsmithing and gun parts as there is very little saving , if any, on anything else. Firearms that are C&R eligible typically sell...

      Lead vs. Copper bullets for pistol questions

      No you do not. And they produce less smoke than a lubed lead bullet. Much less. Many of the guys they shoot production 9mm in Vinegar Bend use either SNS or Bayou both coated and none experience any problems. There is also a guys that shoots them in a Glock. I clean my XDM every 500 rounds and...

      Lead vs. Copper bullets for pistol questions

      I shoot sns bullets coated in 9mm by the thousands. No leading at all and good accuracy. Good vendor, excellent packing and quick shipping.

      Thinking about starting to reload

      Reloading pistol rounds does not save you money, you simply shoot more!

      To crimp or not to crimp

      Crimping is a variable that will affect accuracy so I crimp only when needed like revolver and lever action loads.

      any 10mm aficionados out there?

      not as high as you may think, the curve is pretty flat http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/10mm.html

      any 10mm aficionados out there?

      probably because , given the same oal, the solid TMJ leaves more room inside of the case than the hollow point XTP

      any 10mm aficionados out there?

      IMR Hi-skor 800X can give you that speed if the barrel is at least 4.5-5" long. This powder is flaky and does not meter well so at this level of speed and pressure you have to weight every single load.

      Thinking about starting to reload

      There was a fellow from Milton who had a classic press kit for sale for 150 $ but looks like it sold it few hours ago... that was a good deal.

      Thinking about starting to reload

      Let me trying to answer your questions: 1) 9mm will cost you about 10$ and that's excluding the brass. Bullets 115 grains are 70$ / 1000 shipped from SNS casting, primers are 22$/1000 plus shipping and hazmat, the rest is powder. The 45 ACP bullet costs more, primer and powder about the same...

      Which set of 9mm dies should I buy?

      Lee 4 set dies, I loaded dozen of thousands of rounds without a single problem.

      What is the best metering pistol powder?

      For me Bullseye works the best for the 45 ACP and I get as little as 6 fps standard deviation in a target load. I use the Lee Autodisk powder measure. For the 9mm I prefer Unique but Bullseye works well too. An inaccuracy of 0.1 or 0.2 grains does not influence velocity or accuracy at all so...
