I tried using the search feature but came up blank. I'm trying to duplicate the Remington 180gr PSP Core-Lokt load. It's running fairly hot at 2620fps. Is there a preferred powder that works best under 180 grain bullets in the .308?

I've recently acquired a 30-06 built on a WWII Mauser bring-back action. Initial shooting, I kept 3 rounds of factory Remington 180gr rounds in 1.94" ctc at 100 yards, with an approximately 60 year old 4x scope. Two weeks later, yesterday, I loaded up 5 groups of five rounds each. IMR-4895...

A family relative has asked me: "Don't ask too many questions, but what kind of pistol would you like that you don't already have?" It's not a rhetorical question. They simply like me, want to bestow a gift and can afford a few hundred easily. Saying no would be quite rude. I think he's mostly...

The reference to A-Merc ammo came up in this thread http://www.thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2110264#post2110264 I've seen some comments regarding best/worst brass that indicate some people sort their brass by manufacturer, and toss all the A-Merc stuff as crap out of hand. Why is...

I need help finding a good load for this combination. I have 88, 90, 95 and 100 grain bullets, in both lead and jacketed. I can't seem to find any published loads for Clays in a .380 ACP. Does anyone have one? Please cite your source as well. Thanks in advance.

I know, I know. I just opened a can of worms. Big time. But I'm just getting into pistol reloading, though I've had some of my gear for nearly 20 years (loaded up some deer loads for my rifles, but haven't shot all of them up yet). Anyway, I want to reload for: .357 mag/.38 special - S&W...

Went to a steel match (5 stages) this morning, shooting my Ruger P90. Hadn't cleaned it after the IDPA shoot two weeks ago, but that shouldn't be the source of my problem. First stage, I've never missed that badly. That could just be me, but it also jammed a few times as well. Ended up...

I have a Sig P232, which is my primary carry gun, due to it being a size I can actually conceal. Considering this holster http://www.donhume.com/Products/ProductsPage.cfm?ProductID=36 Anybody got any feedback? And please, don't bother if all you can say is "Get a bigger gun." That isn't my...

I'm thinking of getting a set, plus a new shallow-V rear sight for my Ruger Mark II. Older eyes, you know. When I did a search of TFL for HiViz combined with Ruger (wanting to check other's experience) I found a reference to Firesights being sold by williamsgunsight.com...

Have two, a Standard model, and a bull-barrel Mark II. Both just cleaned and lubed, put back together correctly. Bolt snapped back clean and hard after reassembly. My wife only got about 15-20 rounds through the Standard yesterday before it started messing up. FTEd twice. Both have been...

I've seen lots of discussions regarding various CC holsters, carry locations, etc. But I haven't seen one discuss this particular topic. Sorry if there is one and I missed it. How does one go about CC when one's day job involves a suit and tie? The jacket comes off as soon as I'm in the...

New to this so please forgive what many of you may take for granted. I've been reading a lot of the various threads lately, some issues are clear as mud, but I pm'd another poster earlier today regarding getting a 9mm barrel for my Sig P239 which is chambered for .40S&W/.357 Sig. He pointed me...
