truborshooter

STI extended, like Aggiedad says, on my Trubor, SteelMaster and even my Springer 1911 Same reach all guns, one less thing to think about

Here is a slightly older thread on open M&P http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=120849&hl=70116

And PV has HS6

midway had #5 a few hours ago

My trubor can't be reliably shoot resting the mag on the bench. It will jam up like you mentioned Put it on a real rest or shoot freehand it runs 100% Weight on mag probably jams up the trigger stirup Did you chrono any of these loads?

My factory one dot barrel is also very short throated/leade. That's the more current 10:1 twist barrels My 1911 9mm loads would not fit A Wilson barrel was also short, but the KKM would take all my loads If you have eliminated crimp, other case problems and your loads cleanly passes your case gauge then it is you leade Search the forum, this problem has been discussed before http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=201379&hl= Do not shoot rounds hard into the lands. Some guns like CZ are notorious for short leade. They claim it adds to their accuracy. BTW Doug, are all your loads shown in your picture below headspace or am I reading the picture wrong? Thought rounds should be more flush to end of barrel hood?

Sorry guys, been out of town Yes, a #2 locator pin from my 650 spares kit in station #3 where I have my bullet feeder. I did not bother to groove the #3 pin and just fell into the #2 with #5 o ring. It runs flush with the press platen along the outer perimeter of the 9mm shell plate and rotates along with the shell plate. It makes contact with the bottom of the cartridge case rim and doesn't disturb the case relative to the dies. After I tested it with an almost full case of WSF powder and didn't spill a granule, I ran almost 500 9mm loads with 6 ish grs of WSF. The o ring never fell off the locator pin and I lost only a smig of powder due to sloppy fingers removing cases to double checking powder drops. Yes, the proper way is to groove the locator pin for the o ring but I just fell into the other combination and thought I'd throw it out there for you guys. I suppose that a bad case rim could cause havoc with the o rings but usually a bad rim never gets inserted into the shell plate at station #1. My main concern was for proper case presentation into the bullet feeder die and powder spillage was secondary. After my next trip I will play with 38 SC using a 223 shell plate and see if it works. I predict it will if shell plate diameter is the same, The longer case may be a problem with the bullet feeder, but the sloop built into the shell plate may allow it to self center. Just got in a roller cam follower from Ballistic Tools but won't get to it for a while Next time I'll 'follow the topic' to my email and save you guys guessing

Meyer23 I found I had to use a #2 locator pin. The #3 with the o rings I had was too tight and bound up against the shell plate causing the o ring to slip off the locator pin The Danco o ring set for under $10 at the Depot gives you all the o rings you will ever need and sizes from 5 - 21

Agree with 400driver about case alignment and found #2 locator pin with Danco #5 o-ring in station 3 was best combination Tried it with almost full 9mm cases of WSF and didn't lose a granual

Sorry I wasn't clear the 5" CORE barrel is S&W factory one dot. The other two are upgraded All a fully supported barrels.

Try techwell http://techwearusa.com/techwell/

Just check my 5" CORE 9mm barrel, a KKM Match and a Wilson Match barrels and they are all fully supported barrels Only difference in barrels is finish Cartridge case extension out of barrels are within thousands, only the extractor groove shows.

blood lead testing is very unreliable bet if you retested the day after you got the first results you would be in the normal range again. you're talking ug/dL, micrograms (one millionth of a gram) per deciliter (1/10th of a liter), 1 ug = 0.000015432 grains or 1 grain = 64799 ug http://www.metric-conversions.org/weight/micrograms-to-grains-table.htm grains of salt in a swimming pool. CDC claims testing tolerances of +/- 2 ug (maybe at a top university research lab) but most automated big commercial testing labs couldn't hold +/- 15-20 ug. They just don't get that many calls for the test, the reactants are expensive and the qc is poor. The same sample run twice may be the 'gold standard' for these labs but junk chemistry is junk results. Anyone who tests above normal (elevated) like you, should insist on an immediate retests, one to the original lab and one to an alternative lab. I've had been getting tested regularly for heavy metals, job requirements, and have been through this many times. Lead tends to accumulate in body fat and when very high level in nerve bundles and bones. Blood levels are very much lower than body levels, but we can't chop you up to find out how much lead is in you. Plus you have a base lead level from the soil and foods you eat. 4 months between tests with no treatment, usually chelation for up to 6 months, and heavy dieting or increases in iron, calcium intakes shouldn't result in a >25 to 8 drop. Wear rubber gloves when handling lead bullets,primers, fired cases and while gun cleaning, keep you hands out of face while working on dirty guns, reloading or shooting, wash well with cool water and soap or lead wipes after handling, reloading or shooting, only shoot in WELL ventilated indoor and outdoor ranges, don't lean or sit on range tables, chairs, walls or dividers, remove 'shooting only clothes and footwear' before you get inside you home, move then in disposable plastic bags to launder them separately and run a rinse cycle on the empty washer afterwards. shower promptly after handling and shooting, store and transport range gear in plastic bags, use a plastic liner in your car storage areas cleaning it regularly and you have a ug risk of lead problems to you, your family, pets, car or your home. Especially if you have small kids at home. 95% of lead problems are small children eating paint chips and soil or living in contaminated areas. The balance mostly industrial and very rarely hobby exposure. 25 ug/dL isn't much for an 175 lb adult but crippling for a 30 lb kid.

I have an older 650 and 100k rnds later, I also had primer problems and Dillon replaced my small primer Seater Assembly They claimed the just wear out. Note: there is a Rev B on both the large and small seater assemblies, but don't know when it became effective. How old is your press?

A lot of European 124 gr FMJ 9mm is 'NATO style' and uses steel bimetal jacketing, it's cheaper than all copper. A lot of ranges ban magnetic ammo because it will spark against steel back stops. I've even heard of range fires because of it. for your reading pleasure: http://uspsa.org/front-sight-magazine-article.php?Should-I-Buy-BiMetal-Ammo-8

About your glass top table testing: The suspect ones are probably cases with bent heads from rough extractors/poorly timed pistols. They may not allow your gun to go completely to battery or cause feeding/extracting problems and should be disassembled and dumped.

To check if a compression load take a fired case with a fired primer still in, drop powder load into case, hand fit a new bullet, fired case should allow a loose slip fit on the bullet, measure oal with bullet compressing powder, compare oal to your load specs oal.

Also confirm it is not magnetic ie mild steel jacketed with brass guilding http://glocktalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1156474
