Powder Monkey

Does anyone have experience with Firearms World buying powder or primers? They don’t take credit cards preferring Zelle. Are these guys legitimate? https://firearms-world.com/

Thanks much. They must have gone to a distribution only model.

I have been to buy spring and follower sets for a Sig P320 with no luck. Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks again to both of you. I got to the range today and chronoed my two starter loads. The 9.0gr load came in at 182.2 PF. The 8.4gr load came in at 168.9. TIN coated barrel with no poppels.

Thanks much.

Thanks sarge!

How many grains of HS6 do recommend to push a Montana Gold 115 gr JHP to major PF? Just got my first case today. Lucked out in finding it in stock.

Thanks much.

Can this be done without cutting metal? If so, what is required?

Thanks all

Is 10.5 over the top for lots of popple holes?

Can anyone recommend powder weight to make major in an open gun?

Does anyone have experience with this sight on an Open gun mounted slide ride?

Do you routinely load 30 rounds?

I shoot limited minor with 140 SV mags and Dawson base pads. I can load 23 9mm by hand. Only one of the three needed a touch of sand paper to make the gage.

The new ones will work in an STI, but require the release notch to be squared out. I have two old and two new SVI mags and they all work in my TruBor after the newbies had a bit of work done on them.

Just spit out my first 29 rounds right out of the package. Sweet!

Thanx. It took a bit to find them. It just took a tad bit more mussle.

I just got an MBX mag today. Can anyone give me some guidance on how to remove the base pad? I don't want to damage something as finger pressure does not seem to do the job.

Is a round count available for both matches?

The 1050 has two big advantages 1. It handles crimped primer brass as mentioned above. 2. The internal stepped brass from FM, IMT, and AMMOLOAD will be very apparent in the swage stage if one of those POS got past your cull. That alone is huge, particularly if you load 9 major.

Failure to eject or failure to load?

If you are going to shoot competitive, get yourself a chrono wether you reload or not. Just because you made PF thousands of rounds ago with ammo made with different lot numbered components does not mean the latest batch will.

I load my 9mm to 1.18 OAL.

Does the undersized die generate any tiny brass flakes? If so it will get sticky after a while from brass build up on the inside of the die.
