What did you shoot/reload today?

[Nygma]

No shooting today, but finished batches of 357 Mag, 45 Win Mag, 9MM Win Mag, and 256 Win Mag. I'll bet I was the only one loading at least the last two.

Shot a falling plate match yesterday with my S&W 1911, shooting the following recipe and they worked very well. Found this load is pretty accurate, but fairly dirty with the low charge or the Unique.

230gr Berry's plated
6.0gr. of Unique
CCI LP Primers
Remington Cases
1.265" OAL
.471" Crimp

 

[alwslate]

Looking for good mid-range loads for the .44 mag. Tried 7.4 grs Tite
group under a 250 gr cast 429421 SWC with two primers, Rem 2 1/2
and CCI 300 in two guns, my 4" S&W 29-2 and 4 5/8" Ruger Vaquero.
No significant difference in the primers. S&W velocity ran 980 fps and
Ruger velocity was 1003 fps. Velocity at aprox 12 ft from muzzle.
Behind my house in the country avoiding the wind we had today
here in central IN.

Capt. Obvious - thanks for posting the pic of the button nose wadcutter. I have some that were gifted to me and wondered how they were supposed to look. I usually use the SWC as shown on the right.

 

[Cpt. Obvious]

Today... 3/16/12... I dropped by the range while out visiting church members. I enjoyed firing my 4" 28-2 using plain WWB .38 Special 130 gr. FMJ's. As I am being moved to a new pastoral assignment, I do not have my loading press set up. In fact, most of my gun and loading stuff is packed up for moving. But my favorite revolvers and some ammo have been left available. And today I made use of both! Next week, we'll see what we see!

 

[Mphstiger1981]

Loaded 100 rounds of 38 special. 158 LSWC 3.0 Bullesye and CCI standard primer. Also loaded 5 rounds of 9mm 115 Hornady FMJ RN over 4.1 Bullseye. Trying to gradually work up a load for my Gen 4 Glock 17.

 

[TwoPoundPull]

600 rounds of .32 H&R...
Every now and then I'll have someone with a sharp eye walk behind my booth...
Stop and wait till the cylinder's empty...
Then say...
That's not one of your 14's, and those are not .38's...

 

[DGT]

50 rounds of 38 special and 200 rounds of 45 acp.

 

[mike2043]

[WILDPIG]

Working up some 255gr. LSWC .45 Colt loads. Might settle on 11.2gr. HS6 with Win brass and Win primers.

About 850fps in 6" 25-5 at 5'.

25yd groups standing, two-hand, off-hand was 3".

Lighter loads smoked the cases. Heavier loads took groups above sight adjustments.
