Use the speaker phone on their cell phone at a restaurant.

Yes, it is a carbide expander ball
In the regular sizer die.

I went with Remington 7 1/2 primers and didn't look back.

That would work. The only difference on my setup is on station 1 on prep. htead I use a Dillon full length sizer and decaper. I use it to resize about ~90% but mainly utilize the decamping pin for the expander ball to take any dents out of the neck.
This expander ball makes the neck round again if needed so in station 3 the 1200 can trim correctly.

Yep, the Bullseye is ideal.
I won't know if I can make it till that Thursday before. If I can I will.

Lee, this is what I use. It works well for everything out to 1000 yards. ~$550.00

I make major from a 5.5" with 4.6gOk current load is this :
VV N320 4.7grains, OAL 1.190 This is supposed to make major.
I know little to nothing about reloading but taking the above load and if I want to reduce for shooting steel and or 3Gun how much less powder could I reduce from the 4.7grains to have a good reliable load?
Thanks for any advise.
Mike
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......................
I need 5.0 grains N320 @1.150 with a 180 FMJ to make 170 PF with a 5" barrel with two different makes of guns.
I would not trust your numbers without the results from a chrono test to confirm what you believe to be true.
The difference is that my coated Bayou bullet takes less powder to push it to 170pf so I think 4.7g would be very close to 170pf in mike41's pistol as long as it's not FMJ.
Now when I used Zero's I had to use 5g to make major pf.
So it does make a difference on what type projectile you are using.
Along with a reloading press and load data book you need a good chronograph.

Go to Apple. Com and on top right hand corner search your town and find an Apple store and talk to a representative or tech. about what your wants and needs are. The laptops are what I like. After you purchase it, take the basic setup class then after a couple of weeks to navigate to generate your questions then take some work shops. All this is complimentary.

Mike, it was a 6" Schuemann bull barrel in an STI.Scott ,
What type of pistol did this make minor ?

Get a Wolff (i find Wolff to be true to advertised weight) assortment pack. Try 10,11 & 12 and see which works for you as far as sight dip. Start at 12 or heavier and work your way down if needed and If too much dip go lighter.

/ thisI'd re-tumble for an hour or so, then load them.

My .40 S&W minor load called for 3.6g of N320 with 180g bayou bullets at 1.187 COAL.
Made 137 PF at 86 deg F.
The gun was reliable and accurate at this PF with a 10# or variable 11# recoil spring.

I read somewhere and sometime ago that a FLGR is an upgrade. To each their own.
It gives the spring a guide to ride on so it don't rub the tunnel.
If you go with FLGR be sure round off the cut on the last coil so it don't drag or scratch and drag during it's cycle. And be sure to oil the guide rod.

True, Dawson does give to the shooting sport, I see Dawson does sponsors matches in some way and if not at least you'll see Dawson as a stage sponsor.No but STI does
FYI, Brazos does this too.
Just saying.
OP, buy what YOU want to buy because both will serve you well.
-
If you buy it from Dave Dawson and it has any problems, he fixes it BUT ONLY if you buy it from him. Call Kathy at Dawson and ask.
Does grabagun have gunsmiths that do that?
-
Call Taran Tactical and Taran will tell you all about 9mm mags.
He sells them for $120 each ready to run.

Use KIWI water proofing spray. It's a must for early morning range setup in dew.Why? They are the lightest, most comfortable shoe I have ever shot in. Seriously!
There is one down side, with the Salomon Speed Cross 3 . . . walk through dew covered grass and your socks are soaked

Traction. They are all terrain running shoes.
Adidas are popular as well because they are also all terrain.

Congratulations on your match win!

First rule for a happy marriage - NEVER try to teach your wife to drive or shoot. If you have a friend who is good, or a good local trainer have her learn with them.
This is true.

I can't come up with a reason not to lube cases prior to loading. With pistol (carbide dies or not) it just makes everything so much smoother and consistent. With rifle and full length resizing, its required to avoid stuck cases. Maybe not needed if neck sizing only for a bolt gun...
I lube everything with Dillon lube, dump right into the hopper and start loading, no waiting. tumble after loading for 15 minutes...GTG

yep, i do the exact.

Bayou, less powder to make MPF. Never had an issue, I do chamber check every round.
