    Primer shortage

    Give me a break already everyone, all I did when I started this thread was point out my observations and ask if anyone else had any problems. I now have a total of 2,200 primers, which unfortunately, is probably enough to last me the rest of my shooting days. If me buying 1K of primers to bring...

    Guns Etc. in Chandler (or is it Mesa?) has primers but pricey at $39.95 for Winchester.

    Primer shortage

    I do cast my own bullets but with my age (71), physical problems (mild Parkinsons and severe arthritis) I'm probably not going to be able to do this much longer so don't want to stock up too much and belonging to a club that has an outdoor range, the summer months in AZ are not conducive for...

    Primer shortage

    Sportsmans Warehouse had an adequate supply of powder also, I didn't look at ammo so can't comment on that.

    Primer shortage

    At Sportsman I believe I saw $36.99 on the empty shelf where WSP would go. They did have small and large rifle and I believe I saw one package (100) of WSPM. Bass Pro also said they had WSPM.

    Primer shortage

    Anyone noticing a primer shortage? It seems to have started again, at least in the Mesa, AZ area in the chain stores. Sportsmans Warehouse and Bass Pro do not have small pistol primers and Sportsmans said it's been hit and miss whether or not they get any in their shipments. Don't know about the...

    .38+p in m66 for pd

    This is one of the reasons I decided to go with .38+P rather than .357 in my M66. I never shot .357's at night or even at an indoor range, only at an outdoor range during the day but I've read many comments from people that have. The last time I was at the range the guy to the right of me...

    .38+p in m66 for pd

    I decided to load my 2.5" M66 that I carry with Federal 129gr 38+P HydraShock rather that 357 ammo. My non-carry 4" M19 for home defense is also loaded with the 38+P. I am just wondering what y'all think of my decision.

    Model 66-1 sometimes fails to revolve when shooting double action

    I believe I had the same problem with my 19-2, I just removed the trigger stop rather than re-adjusting it and waiting for the problem to re-appear at an inopportune time, problem fixed.

    Can't carry Model 66 without printing

    Got my Remora yesterday for the 2.5" 66 and so far I really like it, trying various positions to see what's best for me. It's comfortable and holds its position well, even during a short walk. The concealability is good with the one size over t-shirt that I'm wearing. I think I'm going to really...

    Can't carry Model 66 without printing

    I just ordered a Remora yesterday after reading Erich's post and all the others in that thread that praised it, will see how that works for me.

    Can't carry Model 66 without printing

    John: The Fist holster in your pic is very similar to the one I have except mine has a plastic clip that slides over the belt. I'm going to re-evaluate, stick with the Ahrends Cocobolos and the holster I have for now and as most everyone who responded has said I need a wardrobe change. I have...

    Can't carry Model 66 without printing

    I switch between the Ahrends Cocobolo grips and the Hogue rubber grips that I think are the original grips for that model.

    Can't carry Model 66 without printing

    I'm an old fella and most of my muscle mass has deserted me and has been replaced by flab and that's lighter than muscle. Thanks to all that provided comments and recommendations. I considered the fact that because I asked my wife if I was printing of course she would say yes, she knew where to...

    Can't carry Model 66 without printing

    I don't see how, with my 5' 10" frame, 158lbs with a slight beer belly, can carry my 2.5" Model 66 without it printing. I live in AZ and wear t-shirts and shorts most of the time, t-shirts and jeans when it's cooler. I started with a cheapie IWB kydex? holster just to see if I could carry it...

    Increase in max load data with Unique for 38's

    I just received this response back from Alliant: "Our old loads were not actually quite up to +P pressure, 17,000 psi vs 20,000 psi. The Speer loads are. Thanks for your note and have a nice day." Ben Amonette Consumer Service Manager Alliant Powder Company -----Original Message----- From...

    Increase in max load data with Unique for 38's

    Steve C - Thanks for the primer info, I didn't know that. When there was a primer shortage all I could get was CCI but I liked WSP better for some unknown reason. I just recently swapped my last brick of CCI for WSP
