    Seat & Crimp combo die

    Gary: I'm reloading 357 Mag and 9mm. My press is a Dillon Super 1050 and has separate seat & crimp dies since they're the last two stations on the press. The predicament that I'm in is that if I want to continue with separate seat and crimp stations; then I have to give up my powder check...

    How much cleaning is enough cleaning?

    You guys rock! OKFC05: You are correct; in that, I should have been more specific. I really meant cleaning the outside. Nevertheless, I got some very useful advice for cleaning the inside as well!! I just wanted to make sure that I'm not obsessive with the polishing part, even though I'm...

    Oh, my gosh!! Thank you guys so much for the quick replies. I really love this forum because I'm getting a free education! one_eye_joe: Noted, sir!! I use Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish (which I bought at Walmart) and use the dremel at slow speed to spread it on the stainless steel body. I...

    I have a 686 P 3" (Talo edition) and everytime I go to the range; I shoot about 150 rounds (combination of 38 special & 357 Magnum). Besides regular cleaning; I tend to use my rotary tool and felt polishing to make my revolver shine. Am I overdoing it? Will it damage the stainless steel? Any...

    Perfecta ammo at Walmart

    I bought 4 boxes of 9MM 115 grain at the local Walmart for $10.99 and thought it was a good deal. Wrong!! Stay away from this ammo. It is scary to shoot this. The amount of fire that comes blazing out of your muzzle will scare the **** out of you. It was not enjoyable at all. I shot one...

    S.L. Variant Speedloaders?

    Guys, These are worth every penny. Not even comparable to HKS and Safariland products. I was lucky to get two of them on eBay from someone who had sold his 686 Plus. I got them at $56 a piece and frankly, I would have paid $70 for them since they don't make these anymore. They are sturdy &...

    S.L. Variant Speedloader for Model 629

    Can anyone tell me where I can get a couple of S.L. Variant speed loaders? I've see the video on YouTube and based on my readings; it is the best that anybody has ever made. Through my research, I found out that the company in Germany that made them, does not manufacture them anymore...
