Not new to reloading, but new to 9mm.
I've got some Accurate #5 that I usually use for .45ACP reloading, and I know that I could use it for 9mm...but I'm curious what other powders are folks reloading 9mm with.
Mixed headstamp brass, reloading for 124 gr. projectiles of various types...
Looking to spend between $1500 to $2000 for a nice 1911 Commander / 4 inch barreled 1911.
Considering a Dan Wesson or a used Wilson Combat but open minded.
Not that it's anyone else's responsibility to tell me how to spend my money lol, but I thought I'd get some opinions.
Thanks in advance for the advice,
I'm a Maryland resident with a 2nd home in DE and I'm looking to get a non-resident CCW from a state that has reciprocity with DE in order to carry.
What's the consensus on my best option? AZ, UT, FL?
I'm a USMC veteran if that helps reduce any...
I've gotten some renewed love for the M1 Carbine :)
I dug my Korean War vintage CMP Inland out from the depths of the upstairs safe to step my son up from .22 LR to centerfire the other day.
I'd totally forgotten how fun that little rifle is to shoot!!! Almost zero recoil, very easy to...
Just picked up a 500 rd box of 168 gr and a 500 rd box of 175 gr.
Anyone worked up any loads for these? If so, how did they perform? Certainly cheaper than Bergers and SMK's. I'm not expecting the same performance, but I'm hopeful they are somewhat close.
I'm going to use the 168 gr for...
Well...enough 300 BLK cases have failed to chamber in the Sinclair gauge for me to start considering neck turning to uniform my brass.
Besides, it's the next step in tinkering with reloads for me, and with my ever present compulsion to uniform my loads and squeeze out more accuracy...I'm...
Not new to reloading (I've reloaded rifle for about 12 years), but new to reloading pistol.
I'm starting with AA 5 and 230 gr projectiles. Pre-primed brass (large primers). I have a standard Lee die set.
Any suggestions for a starting load...was thinking around 7 grs and working up...
I have a match AR rifle, purchased pre-SB281 that has a heavy barrel WOA barrel on it and a standard rifle stock.
Is it a go or a no go to build a M4 upper and turn it into a standard profile carbine with a collapsible stock?
I'm not even sure I want to do that, but I'd like to know my...
Looking for some guidance on establishing a trust. I have a draft worked up thanks to a friend who is an attorney. I know I have to have it notarized, but other than that...what needs to happen before I can submit to the ATF for the transfer of a silencer and a lower I intend to create an SBR...
I'm interested in building an AR pistol and eventually converting it to an SBR (once I get the tax stamp back).
Does barrel contour matter? I know OAL needs to be > than 29'', but there is no requirement for a heavy barrel on a pistol...correct?
Also, does anyone have a FFL in Baltimore...
My crusher run drive has washed out over time and needs repair. Anyone here either do driveway construction or have a recommendation for an honest company?
Minor regrading probably needed.
Specifically, looking for a good starting load for a m1903A1
I have tons of prepped HXP brass and was able to locate some Varget. Also SMK 168's and AMAX 178's
Any suggestions?
What's the law regarding amount of powder and primers you can have in reserve?
I've been keeping myself at 4 lbs, but I've seen some posts where folks have claimed to find 8 lb kegs of powder locally.
I have yet to hear a concise, informed and intelligent counter argument to this question.
My strategy is to turn the safety issue on its head.
Interested in your opinions / feedback
