I'm going to start working up a load for my ar15 and am wondering about how I am supposed to resize my brass. Specifically, how much I need to bump the shoulder back. I've loaded a ton for my bolt rifles and always bump them back .002", but I've read that you should size them differently for...

I'm looking to buy a new powder thrower specifically for handgun cartridges. I have an RCBS Chargemaster that is great for loading rifle charges, but is just to slow when I'm loading handgun ammo. So what is my best bet for a well built and consistent powder thrower?

I have some 16 round CZ magazines up for sale and I had someone from Romania say they would take them. Is it legal to ship them out of the US? I'm not even sure where to check the laws in Romania. I'm thinking that I might just tell the guy that I would rather not ship out of the US.

I just slugged the barrel on my 9mm CZ SP01. Two slugs measured at .3555 with two different calipers, which will be confirmed tomorrow with a good micrometer. IF the micrometer confirms .3555, should I get bullets sized to .356 or .357? I'm thinking that the .357 would be the best option. Am...

I handled one on Friday while my buddy was doing the paperwork to buy a different gun. As soon as the store employee handed it to me and I gripped it, I fell in love. It felt perfect in my hand and instantly I started wondering how I was going to pay for one. I ended up leaving without it...

I have been looking at getting a new 45 for a while, but haven't been able to get my hands on many to shoot so, I decided to get a CZ 75, which I know I like, instead of buying a new 45. I decided that I would be happy with a 75b, 75b sao, or a SP01, but when I started looking, not only were...

Hey guys, I haven't posted in quite some time, but I pop in once in a while and read a bit. I just bought a Kimber Custom II on Friday and one of the things that I would like to change on it right away is the front sight. The sights are just standard black sights with no dots or anything. I...

I had my Savage 30-06 at a gunsmith to get the re-crowned and just got it back a few days ago after he had it for 3 months. I was just looking at it and it the barrel isn't indexed in the same position as it was before. I can tell because it the barrel used to have sights on it that I removed...

Has anyone tried this combination? If so what kind of velocity did you get? I'm looking to get some decent velocity and hopefully be able to use one of the less temp sensitive powders, and beings I have some H4350 I'm wondering how it does with this combination.

I'm looking to pick up an electronic powder dispenser. I'm looking at the Lyman DPS 1200 and the RCBS Chargemaster. Let me know your opinions on them.

After reading playboypenguins topic "I am so sick of it", I'm wondering what was everyones first handgun? I started out with a Beretta 92FS that I bought used right after I turned 21. I don't have any pictures of the Beretta, but they would be welcome too!!!

Not sure if this has been posted yet or not, but I was just browsing on Kahrs website and saw that they now offer trijicon night sights for their CW series of handguns. They are $80 for a set and I'll be placing my order later today.

The follower on my factory magazine broke. The front part of the follower that is just below the metal pin broke off. I'm not sure how it happened, or really when it happened. The last time I shot it was about a month ago and it was fine then. Today I was at the range testing some 45 and 357...

I'm shooting a RIA 1911. I loaded up some 200gr lscw's over 6.0 grains of universal clays. I had a bunch of jams after the spent case would eject and another one would start to feed it would jam up. The bullet would be started into the chamber and the rim would almost be behind the extractor...

I'm looking to get a couple things done to my RIA GI and need to find someone decent to do it. I just had someone install a new set of sights for me and I'll just say the installation wasn't what I wanted. I want to get a dovetail cut for a new front sight and have a new set of sights...

and today I came home with a new S&W M&P 40 w/o internal lock. I really like the way this thing feels in my hand and can't wait to shoot it later on tonight. I tore it down, cleaned it up some, and lubed it. It was marked $560, but I managed to get it for $520 before tax. I really think I'm...

I'm wondering if anyone has a Hogue stock with the full length bedding block on any of their rifles. If so, does the block eliminate the flex in the forend that most synthetic stock have? I'm looking to replace the stock on my Rem 700 sps with something better.

I ordered 500 of these from Midway about a month ago and hadn't opened them until today. I expected the fp's to have lead on the tip, but they look more like a hollow point of sorts. I'll get a picture in a bit, but am wondering if this is how they are supposed to be???

I have a RIA gi model and am looking to possibly squeeze a little more accuracy out of it, so I'm wondering about getting a new barrel bushing for it and what kind of fitting is required for a new one. The outside of the barrel on the muzzle end measures .580" and the inside of the bushing...

I'm planning on picking up a S&W M&P pretty soon and can't decide between 40 and 45. I will be using whatever I get as a HD and a range gun. I was originally going to get the 40 because my local dealer has a couple on hand and I don't own a 40. I would have to have the 45 ordered plus I...
