    Winchester 40 S&W with Crimped in Primers

    While doing a run of 40 S&W ammunition I have had about 20 Winchester cases that would not take a primer. I started looking them over, and the ones that would not take a primer looked to have a Military Style Crimped in Primer. I had not noticed this before. Anyone have an idea what these cases...

    Gun Show Speedloaders

    I went to a Gun Show Saturday. I found a table with 7 Safariland Comp II Speedloaders on it. The guy had no idea what they were for. He wanted $5 each for them. I did not have my glasses, and thought they were probably for K and L Frame S&W revolvers just looking at them. When I got home...

    Using Speed Strips

    I have had speed strips since the mid 1970's when I first got into LE work. I never used them to load with. After we got CCW in Missouri, I started to carry my reloads in some new Tuff Products speed strips. I found that they carry great in a pocket. I even had custom sewing done on a jacket...

    480 Ruger Shotshells

    I have been thinking about constructing a shotshell load for the 480 Ruger for the last year. Today I got further than thinking. I had read an article on using fabricated card wads to construct the shotshells for a 44 magnum. I got the old mic out and did some checking. I had a leather punch...

    625 Cylinder Dragging

    I have a 625-3 (45acp) that I shoot in our local Club pistol matches. every once in a while the cylinder almost locks up after a reload. You can open it up take the shells out, and close it and it still is dragging with no ammo in the gun. Then all of a sudden the things is loose again. You...
