    Are these okay to reload?

    While scrounging around at the range I picked up a bunch of 9mm casings that look to be once-fired. They are marked as S&B, with the primer being painted red. I deprimed a few of them and they left some metal in the primer pocket and my 550B hung up and I pushed the lever back up. Are these...

    New 9mm for my wife

    My wife is looking for a new 9mm for IDPA and target shooting. Since she has small hands, handle size is a major concern. She seems to like the Baby Eagle and the EAA Witness. I'd appreciate any advice... Thanks

    Need some Pet loads for my 9mm

    I'm just getting ready to start reloading for my 9mm. Most of my shooting will be targets, with some IDPA shooting mixed in. I've got plenty of TiteGroup that I've been using for my .45 and some 125 gr FMJ bullets from the last gun show. I'd appreciate any input using this combination or any...

    Need some advice on forming shooting league

    We are trying to form a shooting league at our indoor 25yard shooting range. However, since none of us have ever been in one or know anyone who is in one, we are looking for some help. We have sent for the NRA literature already. At this point we are not sure if we want to shoot NRA target...

    Minimum Titegroup weights for .45ACP

    I just finished up my first pound of WW231 and thought I'd try using Titegroup this time. I have been using 185 SWC from national bullet over 4.0 gr. of 231. Very little recoil and very accurate. I loaded up some 5.0 gr rounds of Titegroup. These were very accurate also, but the recoil was...

    S & W Model 52-2 What can you tell me about them???

    I saw a S&W model 52-2(.38 spcl) for sale at our local gun show last night. It was in excellent condition, the extra magazine looked like it had never been used. What can anybody tell me about them? I've heard they are very accurate, but that's all the info I can gather... Thanks

    A question of accuracy - 22/45 versus MKII Competition

    I already have a Ruger MKII competition pistol that is used for 25 yard target shooting. I have a chance to pick up a 22/45 with a 5 1/2 inch barrel at a reasonable price. My questions are: 1). Will there be a big difference in accuracy between these 2 models? 2). Would the 22/45 make a...

    National Bullets for .38 special?

    My local gun dealer has been pushing me to try some National Bullet 'Copperized' copper coated lead bullets($30.00 for 500). I guess the idea is to cut down on the lead fouling. I was thinking about trying them in 158gr SWC and using 3.5gr of W231 for target practice. Anybody have any...

    What do I do with all of this brass?

    I've been reading your forum for several months now. It's really helped me get into reloading. My question is: I came across 450 once fired Winchester .38 special brass at the firing range. Since I have several hundred that I'm loading now, I don't think I will be needing them for a couple of...
