[Back again.]

I originally joined about 12 or 13 years ago and have finally made it back. Funny how you get busy with life and forget about places like this.

[Dillon and Reloading FAQs Subforum]

I have a Dillon 650 that I have had for over a year with no problems (started on a 550 over 10 years ago). Recently, I have started having problems with getting a consistent OAL in several calibers. I use Redding Comp Seaters. The problem first started with using factory reject bullets I get from a local manufacturer, but I have tried using new brass and new bullets with the same result. The seater dies have been thoroughly cleaned and properly adjusted. Toolhead is a CNC machined toolhead that is achored with set screws. I am at a loss. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

[96A1 help]

I found a Safariland holster that really works well. Very nice, well built and fits it right. Thanks for the info.

[92 FS front sight options]

Have you looked into a 92A1 slide? They are basically the same except the front sight blade is attatched with a screw on the inside of the slide. Should be cheaper than the Vertec of Centurion slide.

[New barrel for 92FS]

I have a competition barrel I am fitting for my 92 and have a couple of questions for those of you that do gunsmithing. The biggest is would you use the original locking block on the new barrel or would you use a new locking block, plunger, and pin? I am concerned about it wearing differently and not working properly in the stock barrel.

[Dillon RF-100 Primer Filler]

Thanks, that clears my questions up.

[Dillon RF-100 Primer Filler]

Is there any way to use the pickup tubes? Looking at loading bulk ammo and trying to figure out how to have multiple tubes of primers ready to go.

[Ranges in North Mississppi near Oxford and Grenada]

I'm looking for info on ranges near Oxford, MS and Grenada, MS. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[96A1 help]

It does have a rail.I found a safariland that works really well with it. It is actually a Springfield XD model but works great...fits like a glove. The model number is: 568-49. It comes with both a paddle and belt attachments.

[650 locator pins]

Have you thought of small, spring-loaded needle nose pliers? They don't require the dexterity of regular ones since they open on their own. Just a thought.

[Dillon RF-100 Primer Filler]

If so, does it still use the pick-up tubes? I did a search on the forums but no posts were found. Sorry if this is a repost.

[Stainless Steel Tumbling Media]

Thanks for the info. I'll give it a try and see how it goes.

[Uniquetek]

Has anyone had issues with the flange being too thick on these toolheads to fit the slot on a 650? Also, would you use them for pistol, if not, why?

[Stainless Steel Tumbling Media]

Found some lemi-shine. What is the best amount to use in a Thumler's tumbler? I've seen several different amounts on various posts.

[Stainless Steel Tumbling Media]

No, didn't ask, but we searched for an hour. I think I know ALL of their cleaning supplies by heart...haha We couldn't find someone to ask questions in the cleaning dept. I'll try again later. The Thumler's tumbler I got does a good job with just dawn, but I like my brass looking GOOD when I go to the range. HAHA

[Stainless Steel Tumbling Media]

Yeah, tried walfart and two other stores here. The local. non-chain grocery is going to try and order me some.

[Stainless Steel Tumbling Media]

I can't find lemi shine where I live. Has anyone ever tried anything like borax? Any other ideas on what to add to my wet tumbler?

[96A1 help]

I recently bought a 96A1 and have been unable to find a holster. I have read the posts on the Beretta Forum and thought I would ask here. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

[&%$#*& decapping pins]

+1 on the skills!!!

[&%$#*& decapping pins]

I have been using a Lee universal for the last two years on non-military brass with no problems, but broke the pin on the first batch of military 5.56 brass. It was used in a lee single stage press. I looked for replacement pins and LEE charges about $3 for one pin. I decided to buy an RCBS universal decapper and a bag of 50 pins for about $35 total. LEE lasted a long time, but for the money, RCBS works out better. You can get a bag of 5 pins for about $3.

[Holster Makers]

I have a holster a friend gave me for a Beretta 92FS that I love, but it has no identifying marks on the back. The only stamp says "made in South Africa". It is a black belt slide and is made of thick, tough leather. Any help identifying it would be most appreciated. I will post pics in the coming days.

[Beretta 92FS Inox]

OK, thanks for the info. I got my no blue INOX for less than the better looking bruniton models at the store. Never really looked into the INOX designation.

[Beretta 92FS Inox]

Are all of the stainless 92/96's INOX or is it a separate model, and is INOX stamped on the slide?

[MG 121 IFP 9mm load data]

I will try ya'll's ideas. I have four different VV powders and will see how they work. I'm still trying to find my fave load and bullet weight. I really like factory 147gr, but figured i would try a wider variety of weights. Hopefully in the next year or two I can start shooting competitions.

[MG 121 IFP 9mm load data]

I am looking for load info for MG 121 IFP in 9mm. I'll be using VV 3n37,3n38, n340, or n350. I have looked thru my manuals and done a search on here but couldn't find anything. I shoot a stock 92FS. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
