    What a differnce a crimp makes

    Yes, but why? Is there any explanation why this is true?

    M&P 9mm accuracy issues?

    Does this accuracy issue vary with caliber? Is the M&P45 more consistent than the M&P9s and 40s?

    Need help with .44 Mag. load Data

    For medium power 44 mag loads (357 mag for that matter) I really like Unique with either a 180 gr JHP, 240 gr JHP or 240 gr SWC(moly-coated). I lighten the full power charge by 10-15% and I get a comfortable but not wimpy magnum load.

    M&P 45 police gun failure

    If the barrel didn't blow then I think it was brass failure with a heavy charge.

    Questions regarding 617 10-shot...

    I love my 4" 617 10-shooter. Long ago I owned a 17 6" and I always thought that there was just too much wasted space around the 6-shooter cylinder. I found a used 617 for $520 and grabbed it. It has a better double action trigger than single and is a great practice gun for my bigger smiths.

    I finally found the 29-2 for me

    Who wouldn't be envious of you finding a 29 like that in the presentatin box. The ultimate question is; are you going to shoot it?

    6" Model 14 K-38 Target Masterpiece Find...

    Saw a Mod 14 that blew up today

    I like using progressive loading presses that have automatic indexing. I have 2 Dillon SDBs and 1 Lee Pro 1000. After the shell is lifted into the powder drop station it advances to the bullet seat station. I still pay attention but as long as the operation(handle down/handle up) goes without a...
