So, in the next week or two I'm going to start loading up my supply of 9mm for next season's shooting games (I'm down to my last box of 250 :eek: ). Probably looking at 3000 or so. The problem is that next year, I'm thinking of getting into USPSA so I need to be conscious of minor power factor...

Looking for confirmation if I am thinking about this correctly. My AR is zeroed at 200yds and I'll be using 69gr SMK bullets. Sierra says I should have about 80" of drop at 600 yards for a 200 yd zero. 1 MOA at 600 yards is about 6" so 80"/6"=13.3 MOA. If my scope has 1/4 MOA adjustments, then...

I am working on lightening up the action on my Rossi 1892 and doing a bunch of reading on the internet suggests that I trim the stock main spring and ejector spring down a little bit. I don't want to do this without replacements on hand but I can't seem to find part numbers for these springs on...

What are the technical differences between the two terms? I was always under the impression that a carbine was a short rifle, but I guess that isn't the case because I've seen plenty of people say that this gun or that gun is a short rifle not a carbine...

I'll have a brand spanking new Rossi '92 (chambered in 357mag) in a couple days and I intend to shoot lead bullets our of it. In the handgun world, I have always been told to shoot a few boxes of FMJ through the gun to fire-lap the barrel and that reduces potential leading and that seems to work...

I mainly use Bullseye for reloading 9mm, 38spec and 45acp, but its availability is still hit and miss at various local shops( I find enough, but it is still disconcerting how many times the shelves are empty.) I have been reading many posts over the past few months about people really liking Red...

What is everyone's opinion about Davidson Inc? There is a local hardware store that sells guns ordered from Davidson but the prices always seem a little on the high side from what can find at other stores. Are there any deals to be had at a place like this?

OK, so my 45 dies finally got my 45 dies in the mail today and prmptly headed down to put together some test load to try and work up a load for my 1911. After much research I settled on trying 3 different loads with an OAL at 1.25" and a crimp between.470 and .471, I loaded 200gr LSWC with...

was very uneventful, but satisfying. :D 38 special loaded with: 158g LSWC 3.5 grains of Bullseye ( although I think it was closer to 3.3 grains. I think the Lee Pro auto disk is metering a little light with this powder.) Seated to the crimp groove, but the exact measurement escapes me at the...

Being new to the whole lead bullet thing, I'm not really sure what the difference is and what the benefits/short comings of each type are. A little explanation would be helpful. Thanks

In the Ohio area there is a small company making bullets called Vance bullets. Their boxes look very rudimentary and lack information about the company but the bullets look decent on inspection. Has anyone shot them or have any info on the company? The prices seem decent at around $31.00/500...

for reloading both 38spec and .357, I want to use LSWC bullets for punching paper (either 125 or 158 grain I haven't decided yet). Can I use the same bullets for both (read as: purchased from someone who casts bullets for a living) or will it create a bunch of leading in one or the other? I...

So I like to tinker and I thought it would be fun to build an AR. It certainly has to be easier than building a 1911 and that is on my list as well. :D A few questions: Is the Lower receiver the only piece I have to buy from a FFL? can I just order everything else regular mail order? Not...

All of the more popular pistol powders like 231, H-38, Unique and a few others are constantly sold out in my area but plenty of Bullseye was on the shelf so I was able to get decent supply of Bullseye at a only slightly unreasonable price. I've done some research on Bullseye and I know it is a...
