I used the above kit this weekend after a long hiatus from reloading. There are several reasons I went with this kit and one top reason was the powder measure/thrower. I really like the ability to press a spring loaded pin, pop out the powder insert that is preset, and throw in another preset...

I have a Classic Hornady with the similar breech block method of changing out dies. After using it extensively this weekend it is going up on the block for sale. I will be replacing it with a press that does NOT have the breech block deal since that is way more trouble than it is worth unless...

Does the seller have the box, front sights, and target with the gun? If not, that would lower the pricing since the front sight package if probably going to run you as high as $50. I have a -3 that was part of a package deal. By the time I finished selling off the reloading equipment I did not...

A guy was telling me he tried the strike anywhere matches to reload primers. He started with the complete match head and found a slight tendency to not go off. He began using only the white compound on the match head and discovered a 100% reliable method for igniting every time. His testing...

Starting my own personal setup, and finished the first batch of 44 magnums yesterday afternoon. This is going to be a bug to catch, I can tell you. This was my first load: 10 rounds using Top brass 40 rounds using W-W brass All loaded with W-W large pistol primers, 5.8 grains Unique, and the...

Sadly they are not the Larry's of years gone by. No reloading components that I am aware of, and used guns prices skyrocketing, especially on prelock Smiths.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way. Please e-mail me sale info if/when you decide to ship. Thanks.

What are the people like on that forum? If comparable to here I might start hanging out there since it is a nice forum. If not, I won't waste my time. Thanks for the link.

I have shot their 38 special and all 44's extensively. Their ammo is top notch, and the pricing is hard to beat. The 200 grain Gold Dot is my 44 carry load, and it eats holes out in every 44 I have at any range. It is also a pussycat load. I can shoot that load all day long, and the Gold Dot is...

Extreme Prejudice starring Powers Boothe with an N frame in a big bore and magnaported. When he shoots some guy in the head you can even see the ports working. Michael Ironside had a 4 inch 686. In that first doll movie about Chuckie the cop carries either a 10 or 13, and thumbs back the...

That would be a tough call since I love both. Someone that owns a 3 inch, which I have never owned or shot, might argue with me on this but I think you would get more utility out of the 4 inch due to weight and every so slightly higher velocity. Not to mention the extra inch would be slightly...

+1 on the Maxpedition Rolly Polly's. They have a drain for small trash, attach to a belt, and roll up out of the way when not in use. www.maxpedition.com You can find clearance and special deals on them all over the web.

We'd chime in, but fear your reprisals after stating our opinions.

Many different weapons and other items were known to have been unmarked in any manner over the years, with these items being described as "sterile." The description has been picked up by the knife industry and means essentially the same thing. I first read about this practice while reading up...
