I have been having trouble with the nerves that run between my right thumb and trigger finger and also a popping in the joints of my right hand trigger finger. Last week I went to see a hand surgeon and she said I have Dupuytrens disease which is generally genetic and from people of norther...

Since I have been shooting again after many years of inactivity my favorite handgun has become my model 327-TRR8 which is one of those neat alloy 8 shooters. I usually take it with me whenever I do range officer duty and try to burn through a couple hundred wadcutters. A month or so ago one of...

Well I have been reloading for about 2 years and decided to try making my own cast DEWC bullets as my supply from Missouri Bullet Co was down to about a thousand or so. I looked around and found Cast Boolits - Dedicated To The World Of Cast Bullets! and it is most informative website and one...

Well I am about ready to try casting my own bullets and plan to make some 148gr DEWCs similar to the ones I have been using from Missouri Bullet Co. I bought 6000 a couple years ago and are starting to run out.....Theirs have two large lube grooves and the mold I have is a Lee with multiple...

I got one of the RCBS chronographs last weekend at the gunshow in Delmar CA and gave it a testing yesterday. Works really well and I found my 357 cased wadcutters were within 10 to 12 fps of each other. I had loaded these on the new Lee Loadmaster I bought a short while ago. The spread in some...

I bought a Lee Loadmaster press a few weeks ago mainly as I was tired of swapping dies when doing my 38 and 357 wad cutter loads. Lee have what are called factory seconds so I bought a setup with extra turrets for their 357 and 38 carbide die sets and a few extras such as nulti tube bullet...

Well I guess it is another way to try to make more $$$$ so the asses in Sacramento can give their staffers pay raises but smog checking diesel pickups makes little to no sense and I just went through the process! It went something like this: - Got the smog notice with reg renewal and called...

I bought a Manson de-leading reamer a couple of weeks ago since I shoot many many 38 cased DEWCs in both our 357 magnums and I saw that the brass brush on a drill and chemicals did not do a great job. I talked at length with the owner, Dave about this reamer and also others that I might need and...

I bought a case of 5000 Winchester large pistol primers yesterday at the gun show in Delmar CA and they are not used for 357 magnum, even though I wrote that down after checking! I guess I should have looked here first but anyways this evening when I went to load up some 357 length cases with...

I have been doing quite a lot of shooting with my S&W M327 TRR8 using 38 special cases, 3.3 grs of W231 and Missouri Bullet double ended wadcutters. They are easy on my hands (very) since I have arthritis, cheap to shoot (very) and even my wife can handle them. There is nearly no kick or muzzle...

Last night I logged in and noticed no graphics images showing up, just lots of boxes with little rec "x"s inside? I checked again this morning and the same. I checked the other sites I usually visit and I tried my laptop here (red x's) and with other sites all seems well so I don't think it is...

I searched around and did not find exactly what I was looking for, so here is the question. I want to do some competition shooting with my S&W 327 TRR8 and so far have not shot but one box of 357 magnum loads but several thousand 38 special target loads through it. My question is: would the...

I drove up to the gun show at the Ontario convention center yesterday and I was amazed at the craziness that was abounding! I got there about an hour and a half early so I could hopefully get some powder but since it was all indoors there was none but I needed a bunch of cleaning supplies and...
