    What powder for 32WCF(32-20)?

    Seems like there is data for any powder! What is ideal? I think I’m gonna jump on Quickload and look for help. What would you suggest? Accuracy probably won’t happen. The S&W revolver was made in the 20’s and the bore is a bit rough.

    Creedmoor Sports vs A&D FX-120i

    Anybody ever use both? Which is faster? To me, the time between weight applied and stable display is a key time. Balance scales are pretty slow, imo. Digital scales improve this. The Creedmoor Sports scale is just a bit slow, but amazing precision and great anti-drift programming. All that...

    For discussion….how do you judge if a …..

    Die set is good for your process? Like what do you want in a sizer and seater to be good enough for you? I’ll answer…To me a sizing die is good when it sizes brass fired from my rifle such that the the body OD is concentric to the neck ID with minimal sizing. Maybe 0.0025” or less. I also want...

    Gorgeous rifle, but no makers mark. LINK Anybody recognize the pattern? It is in Kalispell MT, so I’m guessing from that area of the world. Dennis Olson? Jerry Fisher? Another? I don’t see how this could be a kitchen table one off….but maybe. I’m guessing less that 50 yrs old by the...

    ATF proposed rule 2021R-05, Definition of “Frame or Receiver” and Identification of Firearms.

    https://www.atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/definition-frame-or-receiver I’m struggling to understand this proposed rule other than I don’t believe I need further expansion of the definition of a receiver or firearm. Seems like they are really going after privately completed firearms. Not...

    Hornady LNL Powder measure jamming

    I have a 20 year old Hornady LNL powder measure. I put the new linkage on that and all looks good. I cleaned with the Hornady cleaner/dry lube. It seems super slick without powder. Then I add CFEPistol and it binds up at mid stroke or at the top of the stroke. Why? Can a powder measure wear...

    Judgement criteria for a good pistol load

    I’m reloading for a 1911 and I was testing loads to determine what recipe for all 500-1000 rounds. So, I load 5 of each charge weight and shoot them into a 15yd target. Recoil was mild at the lightest 2 loads and pretty heavy at max loads. Groups were shot unrested..maybe a bad...

    Warning/Help to new reloaders...

    Frankly, I worry about all the new reloaders. There are folks getting into this that seem to have no idea what is going on. They read a few post, watch a couple videos and think they have it figured out. It’s not that simple. This activity is one of those cool, but dangerous things we have not...
