looking at low use 1985 build S&W; has non fluted cylinder; round butt; Possibly item #103616?. Hard to find much information on this model.

Just acquired my own model & looking for tips on tinkering etc to increase my performance with the little beast at the range.

withdrawn from sale

I'm seeking information on potential value of a set of very nice old walnut 'target stocks'. Beautiful condition, mounted on a S&W m17-4. Trying to get link for more information, or establish value of grips prior to putting them up for sale. Can post photograph tomorrow if needed.

Finally after a long search I came up with a really pleasant AND accurate load for my 10mm. Following factory reloading tables, my notes tell me my 155 RN Barrys ahead of proper N350 charge giving 1143 fps, was great on the steel plates at 50'..... now the problem is, I've run out of N350...

re: such discussions as 'lighter boolits/faster velocity' I was recently exposed to a buddy's new recipes for his 44 magnum. It's rather eerie how accurate they shoot, and very pleasant as well. Somehow I've missed the velocity/powders, but we did try a few loads with 160 grain RNL and 200...

Geez. Always something. So....heads up out there!!!!!

anyone using this ? 124g OAL 1.169 I've put a few downrange but can't really tell any advantage on steel plates. Using N350 recipe for 1200fps. Would appreciate field notes/comments from previous users.

Starting new thread to Avoid Confusion if possible; Prelude: previous decap pin left intact as previous loading travails had ample discussion of possible remedies; no such changes at this study, in order to control given variables of case condition specifics. New observed findings: 1-50 round...

have done this for years with little difficult; this last batch however, presents 'PIA' level issue: a certain percentage of otherwise 'within spec' brass of all head stamps, are now showing the problem of 'primer sucking' phemonena: On 650 Dillon, Stage 1 decaps/resizes; Stage 2 is new...

gearing up for the GSSF match a few months away....looking to load some 124 plated practice fodder. Looking to approximate standard factory Blazer as they work well enough for this project. Any favorite recipes out there to share?

have potential purchase under consideration: model 6906 S&W 9mm semi auto; have only seen photos so far; described as low use carry gun last decade; one magazine. I've never been around this model, having suffered the bad results of buddies decades ago trying to make their Model 39 & M59 run...

A regular user of the hodgdon site, this AM everything seemed otherwise normal, yet multiple attempts to get on the 'PISTOL' data page gives me the RIFLE calibers only. Any one else notice this?

Have over a half-dozen of the old standards, noticed my newest printed version is the Lee 2nd Edition, now long in tooth circa 2003 IIRC.....It also leaves considerably wanting for more recent recipes with new powders & newer boolits, etc. I often use the Hodgdon web site, but it all too...

you know, the spendy Finnish(?) stuff....never used much of the make before, and never the VV350. looking to conjure up to accurate 10mm/45 acp/44 special loads herewith.... Most of the printed recipes I find seem to be various FMJ style. I do mostly cast lead by choice....economic:eek...

I'm going out of town for a few days, interrupting my current little project. Laboring to find the 'best' bowling pin match load in each of these calibers: 45 acp/10mm/44 mag or 44 special. Given the constraints of the game, there are some conflicting design aspects. The general performance...

anybody loading this for pins, using 180 LFP (coated) & 165 plated near 1100 fps? got some accuracy recipes with this or Longshot for pins?

Everybody seemed so happy a while back loading up .380 lead RN, so I've gathered components ready for action. Now I can't find the thread with those sweet recipes! :rolleyes: I don't recall if my cast lead boolits are 90 or 95 grain, didn't buy any FMJ this time around. It's been about 15...

I did years ago about 1000. It was a miserable project rife with glitches & tiny errors. I don't intend to do it again, even with all the gear to do such. But the factory ammo is SO dang expensive!!!

The factory new 180 FMJ rounds I got really were not very impressive grouping out of the Sig 220-10. I tried a variety of 165 plated Berrys and had a paucity of recipes. They sent me some ideas & I honed in on a load that seems about right for bowling pins: Haven't chronoed it yet but all...
