So I've got a box of both 124gr and 147 Hornaday XTP bullets but am having a hell of a time locating load data for these, I went on Alliant ' s website and the only loads they show are for Spear bullets, I went on Hornaday ' s site with no luck either, my Lyman manual shows loads for 147gr...

I don't have one but the shop that I like to deal with is getting 5 in before too long, I've got them pulling one for me and putting it in the back lol, 2 others are spoken for by a couple of the guys that work the counters,

Any thoughts on tumbling Live ammunition with Corn Cob in a vibratory tumbler to remove the case lube? Lots of thoughts out there on the net, curious as to what those that have been reloading for a while have to say, all this said I'm doing some in a vibratory tumbler as this is being typed...

I've noticed it is a little bit of a different animal from my 19, it's taken some getting use to regarding draw and whatnot but a decent carry gun for when I'm on the bike, it's fairly accurate for a small pistol imo; it'll never replace my 19 as my primary "go to" but it serves a purpose for...

For my 9mm carry guns I use 135gr Hornaday Critical Duty, I like the expansion and the improvement in 9mm ammunition is what took me away from .40 and .45acp after all these years and back to 9mm but caliber is a personal preference for sure

Full magazine of defensive ammunition, I haven't carried my G22 in some time but I always used 180gr Hydra-Shok or Hornaday 180gr JHP, out of curiosity why the fmj follow ups in your magazine? Not criticizing you or anything just curious

I haven't personally but I know quite a few that have been delayed, it never seems like ant rhyme or reason to it but the all get cleared,

Just finished up prepping another batch of 9mm, just letting then finish up in the oven for a bit, the wet tumbling and stainless pins are the cats ass! Had the wife pick up some lemi-shine today, what a difference that stuff makes!

You dime boss, that's one caliber I would like to have myself! On another note I remember years ago when I was a little kid our house got broke into, my old man had guns stashed everywhere and unfortunately many of them were stolen. .... not trying to get into a"proper storage" conversation...

It's been awhile since this thread was updated lol, I Fig I've missed the last couple of Fridays due to being TDY for work so I fig what the hell I'll post today, we got a load of new members now as well and it might be pretty cool if they join in! My belated Friday post lol: Marlin 1895G...

Lots and lots of money and a class 3 permit,

Just remember while Open Carry is legal; that OC is not applicable to carrying loaded while in a vehicle as it then goes back to CC and requires a permit, read the link that Mike posted above and be sure to understand the ins and outs Also this info is in another post that is a sticky for the...

I guess I'm behind the times a bit here. ......the CCW course is only 8 hrs in Ohio now? When I took mine years ago in North Carolina it was a 16 hour course; they did cover much more than the basic course such as David explained, my thoughts are never set in stone; are the requirements that...

I think personal opinion that some defensive training would be great! , not only teaching the laws and shooting from 7 to 10ft away but also drawing from a holster and getting the blood pressure/adrenalin up a bit to give the user an example of how the body performs under duress, I'm not sure...

I will add this to my notes, thanks Shawn! Just for kicks I went and ran a caliper on a good sampling of my brass and I'm just setting south of 1.750, mostly around 1.74ish granted none of these have been sized yet though, I'm not sure whether to expect any variation after the sizing process...

Copy that, I figure to get all this brass prepped and processed first then I'll set up and get them loaded, I Fig to make a couple of different batches to check the grouping then start producing, ya this is all once fired LC brass from my rifles only so I at least know their origin, I've...

Good deal! I can see where your coming from here, so let's get on the topic of crimped brass for a min if you don't mind, after the brass is deprimed and cleaned, I would then use my crimp tool to open up the primer pockets, then resize, now are we just taking a neck resize or the whole...

Yes I Def need to do that, I'm waiting on my dies and tool head , and conversion to come in for 5.56, I was gonna initially set the tool head up to deprime and size, then clean, then trim, I got a little ahead of myself here lol, I Fig I can hit these ones with the hand tool, I'm gonna...

While the brass was tumbling I went ahead and loaded a few rounds of 9mm, after about an 2 hrs the brass was done and wow did it come out nice! That wet stainless media tumbling is really the way to go!

Doing a little 5.56 case prep tonight, I gotta leave town for work again for a week on Sunday but wanted to get a bit of a start on this 5.56 brass that I have, the Tupperware container isn't even scratching the surface here,..... got the stainless media and the wet tumbler rolling...
