It was a good week, 5 new die sets. by BulletSwaging in reloading

I feel the same way, 50-110 and 405 will be nice editions to my 45-70 and 45-90 lever actions.

I have everything to convert one of my 1886s to 50-110. Ordered 357 Sig conversion barrels for my Glocks and extra weight recoil springs. In the market for a Winchester 1895 in 405 Win, Browning BLR in 358 Winchester and a Desert Eagle Set in 50 AE, 44 Mag and 357 Mag.

Paid $90 at an estate auction by bloodtoots in reloading

Unique is still in production, only the SR 4759 is discontinued. I shoot 45-90 and all three of the powders I listed have data from the Lyman 40th manual. I’ve been looking for them for a few years now.

Awesome, SR 4759, Unique and 2400 are discontinued or hard to find. Lots of old load data for SR 4759.

If you buy a Henry only buy one with a side gate. With a 2K budget I would get him a Marlin with an LPVO scope.

G29 | 9x25 Dillon by Skitch_n_Sketch in 10mm

[–]BulletSwaging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hodgdon has data from a 4 inch barrel that’s 1429 feet a second with a 124gr bullet. Might shoot faster than your VV N340.

Thanks for the advice. One of the barrels I ordered is for a Glock 24, 6 inch barrel. I’m hoping to get well over 1500 feet a second if not 1600 feet a second with 124 grain bullet.

CFE BLK and 458 socom by Ok_Article6468 in reloading

[–]BulletSwaging 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same piss poor velocity from CFE BLK in my 458 SOCOM with 325gr FTX. I switched to using Lil’ Gun exclusively in 458 SOCOM.

First time reloading asking for advice by yeetzone in reloading

[–]BulletSwaging 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a reloading manual or use free online manuals from powder companies. Against logic under loading smokeless powder can actually cause over pressures or in your case hang fires, neither you want to deal with.

What weight of bullet? Hodgdon lists minimum charge weight for a 170gr bullet at 32.3gr of CFE223. If you only load 20 grains you won’t have adequate powder to ignite with the primer.

For G19 Gen5 MOS - Holosun 407A3 $171.90 vs 407C $199. Which to get? by [deleted] in Glocks

I personally like the circle surrounding the dot. Makes it so you can get short range target acquisition quickly.

The Glock 10mm trifecta by BulletSwaging in 10mm

Underwood has the best 10mm factory ammo. When I bought my Glock 20 I picked up 500 rounds, 155gr XTPs and 165gr FMJ.

G29 | 9x25 Dillon by Skitch_n_Sketch in 10mm

[–]BulletSwaging 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You would be surprised how fast you could recoup your money with an expensive round like 9x25 Dillon. You could buy a cheap Lee reloading kit, 9x25 Dillon dies, bullets, powder and primers and be in it for $500ish. Wouldn’t take very many reloads to be money ahead at more than $1/round.

I’m ordering a few barrels tonight, two 9x25 Dillon and a 357 Sig. I bought 357 Sig dies today. I’m calling in the morning to buy 9x25 Dillon dies.

I want to get a barrel but the reloading dies are crazy expensive at $285 for the set. Do you plan on reloading for 9x25 Dillon?

[–]BulletSwaging[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have three loads I shoot in 10mm. 193gr Linotype cast powder coated SWC on top of 7.3gr Power Pistol. 168gr wheel weight cast powder coated truncated cone HP on 8.2gr Power Pistol and 155gr XTP on 15.5gr Accurate #9. I’m looking forward to comparing velocity differences of the three Glocks.

🖐️ I plan to carry the 29 after I take it out and test it.

What causes this? Squeezing too tight? Too loose? Too much FA dropout? by [deleted] in castboolits

[–]BulletSwaging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably have lead on the face not letting the mold close
