    138 gr button nose wadcutter

    I was shooting for around 750fps out of my K6xs, the 3.6gr of TiteGroup achieved it though the spread isn't the greatest. Using 3.9gr of TiteGroup yielded higher fps and both of these 10 shot loads were pretty accurate; testing was at 15yds for a standing rested position using the 138gr BNWC...

    reload 9mm?

    I have a plethora of 9mm 124 gr lead boolits that I am using up because I got them at such a great price. Though my convertible Blackhawk with the 9mm cylinder shoots the DEWC boolits just fine, it also like the 9mm SWCs too!

    .45 semi wadcutter locking up the slide

    Regarding OAL, I was having issues with SWC not feeding reliably in my Glock 30s, being curious I broke out a box of .45 ACP FMJ RN factory ammo and measured the OAL, of the the first 20 random cartridges, the results are below, my loading data for that particular bullet is 1.200" though all of...

    No Space to Reload?

    Once our Spawn moved out, my best Friend George Jefferson'd my butt from the garage to one of their empty bedrooms. She bought storage cabinets/drawers/rolling drawers etc. She's planning on keeping me around, the other side is another press and storage for other hobbies...:love:, the plus...

    44 Special light load results today

    RE: Light 44spcl Loads Dialed in the Bear Creek BNHBWC load for my Blackhawk 44 Special, 4.3grs of TiteGroup will get the boolit where it needs to go (it was pretty windy the day I tested these), loading up a gaggle (technical term), of these now, before I know it, I'll be placing another order...

    Winchester WST powder

    Another long time user of Winchester WST here; attached some pics of past testing. The .45 ACP was tested at 10 yards though it is also accurate at 25yards when I get my &$%* in one sock. I did have to lengthen the OAL to get the SWC bullet profile to work in my G30s which led to a slight...

    Dillon presses

    This past year I bought another 550b from a private seller, the other one has 20+ years of use. Both of these were previously used, yet Dillon honors the warranty whenever I've needed parts replaced. I've got one set up for large pistol primer cases and the other for small pistol primer cases...

    Going for a .38 from a BG380

    I traded into a BG38 as the previous owner didn't like the smaller stocks & recoil; since I got it, I made it my own by replacing the stocks and installing an XS Big Dot front sight for my aging eyes. Today I was chasing wadcutter loads that have around the same fps as my factory loads... I...

    Where do you buy reloading bullets and powder?

    Besides sources that have been mentioned above, I find that locally the Ranch & Home Supply stores seem to have stock and at times better prices too. I've had good experiences online with American Reloading out of MO obtaining primers with hazmat/shipping included in their sale prices. Another...

    Best Online Source For Small Pistol Primers?

    I've ordered from Capitol Cartridge before; got a case of the Ginex SPP and they worked fine. Lately I've been ordering from American Reloading based out of MO, they recently were selling Fiochhi SPP for .06 cents per primer, I'm working through a case of 6k. Sign up for American Reloading's...

    M&P picture thread.

    Just took delivery of my latest Milt Sparks holster about a week ago (wait time was 6 months). Only difference I've noticed is the fit on my earlier Milt Sparks holsters seemed to be tighter than this latest one which is a pleasure to draw from the holstered position.
