I inherited a gorgeous .44 Ruger Super Blackhawk that is in pristine condition. It did have the recall work to keep it from drop firing (tang?). I even have the original parts that Ruger replaced. It has 1 bad habit. The loading gate (this one does not lock out if it opens) will swing open...

Hypothetical situation: I've just fired a weapon at a person in a SD situation. I've read articles about stuff you aren't supposed to do like try to explain yourself to the police, and that you are supposed to politely tell the officers that you want legal representation before you will make a...

I'm looking for a powder to work up a 'factory like' 9mm load using coated LRN 125 gr bullets. Is there a powder that works for this without leading the barrel? I'm looking to shoot this out of a 3.3" barrel.

A Free Beacon article documents how some people recently moving into states such as California have been denied the ability to purchase guns or ammo. In short, CA law requires CA photo ID to purchase either, but if someone moved into the state in the last few months, then the DMVs are closed so...

So, I have a few .223 I need to disassemble. I got out my kinetic puller, and no matter how enthusiastically I apply it, these rounds are unimpressed. While therapeutic, I do really need to reclaim the bullets and brass. Recommendations?

Here is my rifle This is the red dot optic I have on it I fired 5 reloads I had made up for pressure tests individually with a few minutes between each shot. After that I was working today off of a front rest and working on getting the rifle zero'd at 25yds at an indoor range. I was...

Maybe I'm missing a rule somewhere. A couple of recent real world events have really made me think about how I would respond, and what is the 'proper' trained response? I've been seeing, lots of situations where people driving along and getting mobbed by protesters (in Provo, UT a driver was...

I got a bit ahead of myself and primed a few of my .223 cases. Now, I realize that they need to be sized a touch more. If I remove the pin from the sizing die, am I safe to resize them while primed? I can't imagine why it would be a problem, but there is a lot of experience around here to...

I have a new Anderson 5.56 AR with less than 100 rounds through it. While working on setting up reload round length and feeding a dummy through the mag, I noticed that the feed ramp is scratching my bullets (55gr FMJ) I've been putting this one dummy round into a mag, and releasing the bolt...

OK, so loading handguns, COAL is pretty easy to manage, since the brass on straight walled cartridges doesn't really expand (at least in my exprience). But, Rifle brass does expand. So, if I'm looking at load data what is the brass length that COAL is based on? I'm looking at the spec for...

Hi All, I've been loading for some time for 9mm and .45 acp. I picked up an Anderson 5.56x45 NATO AR the other day, and I'd like to get set up to load for it as well. I have a Lee 4 station progressive press. Any recommendations for powder/bullet combos and dies? I put my name on a wait list...
