Yes, agreed.

I was the "Ref", no reshoot.

I shoot them in .357 guns, I wouldn't in .38 Special only guns.

Smart, buy them when they have them, not when they're in short supply. Fool me once...

Yes, I'm in Southern California. We have a local place that sells Fiocchi primers for $0.06 each from time to time. I buy either Bayou or Blue bullets for $0.10 each, and only use 3 grains of powder in my 9mm or .38 Short Colt. A friend of mine is just starting to reload, and I told him buy components when you see them, not when they're on sale.

These days, cost is irrelevant. Buy it if they've got it.

Watch the last plate

So 247 just to be sure? I'm in, see you guys and girls on Saturday.

Or use a 9mm crimp die.

No, I'm good with Clays and Sport Pistol. I've been thru three or four shortages, and I've learned, buy it when they have it EAR-REGARDLESS of price. I only load .38 Short Colt and 9mm these days. At 3 grains a couple of 8 pounders go a long way. Factor in I'm 66, so... ...crap, I better go buy more

I saw this at Cabela's in Phoenix today.

Please don't bring logic and reason to an internet discussion.

Two years from now that will seem cheap.

It's expensive, but I like Sport Pistol about 1000 times better that titegroup. Titegroup is filthy.

Yep, agreed.

Six months ago it was just the opposite.

So in my actual testing, 5gr of 244 was faster in .38 Special, than 5gr of 231. These are actual numbers.

Agreed, 244 is a great powder.

I like Win 244.

It means that you can safely use any load data for a bullet of a given weight. Jacketed, plated, coated, pick a load, chrono it, have fun. Loading 9mm mInor isn't rocket surgery.

Blah blah blah, I load coated, plated, and jacketed bullets all the same. Granted I've only load a couple of hundred thousand rounds, but so far so good.
