While I have gone to the library and read a number of books on reloading I have not picked one to have as a home reference. What book is the most complete with special regards to all the load data for handguns featuring all bullets and powders? Thanks dave

(Note: With regard to posted reloading data - mistakes, typos, etc. happen. Always check any poster's powder charge amount with a reputable reloading manual from Speer, Hornady, Sierra, Lyman, etc. before duplicating to ensure it is within safe limits. We highly recommend that you begin with the...

Thanks for the info Skip, I was just going to ask. Also just read a article about a bullet going on with a puller.LOL

Well, the first thing I did this am was to recheck the scale. Pulled apart a REM 9mm 115 and the scale had it exactly at 115. I'm a avid airgunner and have pellets that known for their precise weight. They were right on the money as well. I have reloaded my first batch of 50 and was ready to go...

Ok, I made the plunge. Now here is my problem. I ordered bullets from Berrys. I ordered FN by mistake instead of RN. No problem. However I clearly ordered 115gr. The two boxes clearly state 115 9mm. However I went to weigh them and they weigh 124!!. What gives with this. I have checked my scale...

I say find a nice pistol costing about half that amount and put the difference in a good quality Vacuum. If you live in a single story house, she will appreciate the new one, and if you live in a two story, she will not have to lug the old one upstairs. It's the little thoughts that count.

You can do checks on my post on a number of forums on these little gems. I likes the first one so well, Bought another one. guntest.com did a comparison of a few 22.cals and the little Phoenix beat pistols costing three times the amount of the Phoenix and gave the Phoenix a A+ rating. A very...

Running the q-tip through each one was not necessary. It was just something I did while checking each case for defects. The solution worked fine for me. If anything I think I would be inclined to check out Hornady's new sonic/ultrasonic cleaner. I really do not think I want to get involved...

Ok, I did rinse all well with hot water and and then took each one inspected the case and ran a q-tip around the inside. The whole process did not take long. I guess I will try them out and in they do not shoot, then get a tumbler and a cat. So my question is,do the tumblers clean the inside of...

Ok, I decided to take the plunge and start reloading. I go to the range and quickly pick up 250 casings. I do not want to buy a tumbler at this point and all the crap that goes with one. So I try the vinegar thing, and it works ok. I try pledge and it works better. I then go to Walmart and see...

Ok Skip. I see now that you are right about the hand press. Where I live there are a few local gun shops and they carry most of the LEE kits. Which one would you advise or would you not get the kit and just buy other components separately? (I only plan to load Pistol ammo). Thanks Dave Ps...

I do not know about the original triggers on any of the SR9's, but the trigger on my SR9C is with a doubt one of the finest triggers I have ever shot. My only complaint with the SR9C, is the fact that it is almost boring to shoot. Just too easy to group with, hardly any recoil and perfect weight...

Here is the Genitrol comparison. (Note- the SCCY is only 15 oz. Not 17). One thing I like about this gun is the grip on it. I like the finger grips and the back of the grip is cushioned. If you get a chance look up the torture test. Also to note, they are supposedly coming out with a shorter...

I think this will be a very interesting pistol to watch. A relatively new company, but producing only ONE gun. The SCCY CPX-2: A Lot Of Gun For The Money

First of all, I would like to thank Skip for his introduction to reloading info. I'm seriously thinking about getting started, but if I do, it will be very simple. In fact, I am thinking of getting a "Hand Press". I just want to learn. I'm not talking about a lot of rounds or how long it will...

My brother has a high point and shoots the heck out of it and speaks highly of it. One thing I have learned is the guy behind the counter of a firearm store may not be the most knowledgeable person to talk about the quality of guns. I go into one of my LGS and always there will be some new...

Wore out the first one at some were between 2000-2,500 rds. Have about 200 on the new one. It will not get much action. I know how to shoot it well, and just some maintenance will do. At least until I buy a second 380. Then I may wear this one out. Not until them. In the mean time I train with...

Extra stock recoil spring, extra take down pins and a BT guide rod. After a few thousand rounds, I really think that changing the recoil springs every 100 rds is the way to keep the gun from breaking down. I use to use the wolf springs but they seem to wear down just as fast. I shot the gun...

TNLC9, Bravo on the LC9! I have about 2,500 on mine now and not one failure that I can remember. I'm sure you are like me, and with that much practice, you can really zero the target especially at 7 yds. The gun is dang accurate. One thing I really like about the LC9, is the sleek and smooth...

Just shot mine today. Fantastic groups. Folks that talk against the trigger, just have not shot it enough. It is actually a very very smooth triger. I have wanted to carry the gun with stock grips. But i have found that the Hogue grip just does wonders for the control of this gun, especially for...
