    Steel Shot questions

    I'm just getting in to loading for steel shot. I have been loading shotgun shells for nearly 40 years but am now just looking in to this. A few questions for those who have experience in steel. In the manual, it says that I need to use a different charge bar for steel shot. I don't understand...

    Sellier & Beloit Brass

    I’m trying to reload some Sellier & Beloit 8x57 brass and it wont fit in the shell holder. I know I have already loaded for this caliber as I have my recipe but can’t figure out why the brass won’t fit anymore. Anybody else have that problem? It’s the only brass I have for this gun.

    AR 15 Stock Removal

    I've watched the videos and I've tried to pull down on the release to remove my M4 collapsible stock and am having no luck. I've done it on another AR, so I know that it should work, but for some reason it doesn't. I have a Bushmaster XMS2. Do I need to remove the roll pin and take the whole...

    Problem?

    Just got done reloading for the 10 and 45 using a new 1 pound canister of Unique as I finally finished off my 4 pounder. I noticed that the new Unique is significantly lighter than the old formula and was wondering if this will cause a problem. For example. I am using the charging die of .76 and...

    Need information

    A good friend of mine is selling a Glock G30SF and I am wondering what price range should I be looking at? I already have a 1911 in 45 ACP and this would be a nice compliment to the collection. Also, I reload all of my own ammo, except for carry/hunting and is it really true that you can't...

    Shotguns

    I recently got back into loading shotgun shells and ran out of Green Dot. I used to load heavily back in high school and college and that was what I used way back then for 20 gauge. I had some Unique on the shelf and found some loads for using that with the primers and wads that I had. Has...

    Grabbed the wrong ones

    I just recently found some small pistol primers and bought them only to find that they are Magnum pistol primers. I have standard loads for all of my pistols and was wondering how I can use these primers as I cannot return them? Is it ok to use magnum small pistol primers for these loads and...

    New York has recently introduced legislation that would require gun owners to carry $1M worth of liability insurance in order to have a gun. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Liberals have long since said that Republicans are only concerned about the rich, but here you have a bill...

    Loose Dovetail

    Just got back from shooting my Walther PPK/s and noticed that I was not hitting as good as usual. Then I noticed that my rear dovetail sight was loose and I was able to take it right out by just sliding it to the right. Anybody ever have this problem and what is the solution? Do I need to send...

    38 Spcl Loads using the "Dot" powders?

    I have been using Unique, but thought I would try something a little different. The loading sheet says 7.0 grains of Blue Dot for starting and never exceed 7.3. The Sierra manual says that 8.3 is starting load for a 125 grain bullet. I loaded up 15 at 7, 20 at 7.5 and 15 at 8. Has anyone ever...

    Wisconsin?

    Is it now legal to carry concealed in Wisconsin from another state? I live in Michigan and have a CCW and was wondering if it is legal yet? It appears to be so, as the law passed back on November 1 and it does say that they will honor Michigan CCW's, I was just wondering if anyone has tested...

    How is this possible?

    In my recent trip to the range, I discovered another anomaly that I am confused by. As I was sighting in my 300 WSM and my 308 Win, I noticed the velocities didn't seem right. The 308 had higher velocities than the 300 WSM with less powder. The 308 was shooting a 15 grain lighter bullet, but it...

    Doesn't make sense

    Just got back from the range, and had an anomaly that I have never seen before. Shooting 165 Nosler Ballistic Tips out of my Browning A bolt II 300 WSM. Had twenty rounds loaded, half were brass and half were nickel. All cases were origianlly shot from this gun and full length sized. The nickel...

    I have been seeing in the media lately that Wisconsin has finally passed concealed carry. I am not from there, do not live there, but do travel there and I have a CPL from my state. Has anyone researched or heard about the reciprocity for other states and when will this new law go into effect...

    Headstamp Question

    I have some 380 Auto brass with a CBC headstamp and don't remember who the manufacturer was. I was loading last night and crinkled a couple of them so I pulled them aside and double checked my notes from last session and sure enough I had the same problem then. They seemed out of spec even...
