    9mm die sizing too small?

    I'm new to reloading and I've thus far only reloaded 40 S&W and 45 ACP. This morning I began to size some 9mm Luger. While FL sizing I noticed quite a bit more resistance than either the 40 and 45 I've done. (Did about 30 cases various stamp.) The reloading manuals I have, state their...

    Broken front sight...is this common?

    So last week a buddy and I were out shooting. About 70 rounds in to the morning I noticed the front sight on my Browning Hi Power (40 S&W) looked cocked a tad to the right side. Puzzled I pinched it between my thumb and index to see if it was lose and it came off in my fingers without any...

    steel targets...making my own

    So I've got some scrap tool steel chunks laying around. Targets made from AR500 are kinda pricey, the thought crossed my mind to make my own out of the tool steel I have on hand and heat treat them. Plus I'm always looking for a good project. Has anyone made there own hardened steel targets...

    Scope Alignment Kit

    Not sure if this is the place to put this or not... This is my first post, I've been lurking lately and finally got myself a username. I recently aquired a Ruger No. 1B in .204. Offset rings are on order and should be here any day now. As my name may suggests I am a tool maker and I'm trying...
