  1. anyone got some good data using HBWC that will make minor pf?
  2. in case i miss understood.. i dont think the revo model will fit on a 5inch Gov 1911
  3. i dont think you can put it on a 1911 but i could be mistaken
  4. I have been pulling my hair out for the past few months looking on ebay and gunbroker for an aristocrat sight for my k frame. The one I want seems to be discontinued. I think it was called "tri set"? the front sight had adjustments for 7yd-25yd-50yd. Do any of you guys know why they stopped making these and if a simmilar product is out there?
  5. i have autocomp and powerpistol in my powder inventory. Maybe its just me but it seems like the muzzle blast off of PP is like getting punched in the face.. Thanks for the tips
  6. I was told to try WSF for 9major but I cant seem to find any mention on this sight about using it in 9major.. I fairly trust the guy and im pretty sure he doesn't wanna blow me up but I would still like to know if anyone has used it befor I drop the hammer on one..
  7. this is a glenn custom i love his work and is a great guy to talk to
  8. I might add something to watch out for.. If you are using a fluffy powder like Trailboss that just about fills a 38spl case and you seat a bullet like a 180gr turny master then that load is going to be extremely compressed. I dont know if it would be explosive but i would use caution. I shoot Action Pistol which has a powerfloor for minor is 125 and my two pet loads are 147swc with 4.6gr 231 or a 158wc with 4.3gr of trailboss, both get me in the 128-132pf range
  9. last time i went through a tour of PD they had a pretty cool setup. The use three WWII era winchester bullet machines, prolly weight about 10 tons each! Dillon aint got jack on these suckers. The first machine we came to took massive lead cylinders and under extreme pressure pushed them through specific holes to make cores for their jacketed bullets. Second machine took a five foot high three foot wide role of copper sheet and punched out little discs that would later be turned into jackets. Next machine cut the lead wire into the correct length. Next machine would join the copper jacket to the core. Seeing the big Winchester machines pump out ammo was amazing. I would hate to guess at their output rate but i would bet 40K+ rounds a hour on each machine. Stuff like 38spl,357sig,357 mag, 44 spl/mag is loaded on automated Dillon 1050's and i think i saw a old camdex unit in there to. I think PD biggest problem is filling the contracts for law enforcemtnt, i think every agency in the south uses them for either practice rounds or for Ranger ammo.
  10. ditch clays brother, 4.0 gr of 231 out of my model 64-5 slinging a 145gr swc gets me about 128 pf..
  11. failure to make sure my bullets would feed one time caused me to buy some bullets from a guy at a local match(major bad idea). I think these bullets must have been pure lead and loaded to the max! I had lead in my barrel and cylinder for days! Everything I tried failed, bore brushes seemed like it only pholished the lead even when using lead remover chemicals. Finally my father in law had a idea. He is a jewler so we put my gun in one of his ultra sonic cleaning machines along with some sort of cleaning agent and left it there for about 30 min. When it was done he took a bronze brush and one section of the cleaning rod and put it in his high speed drill...(think you know were this is going). After a few in and outs with that my barrel and cylinder looked like it did when it came from the factory! Granted my favorite .75cent brush was ruined now but it got the job done. I have also heard of people buffing out heavy machine marks in their cylinders by using a SS brush, Flitz, and a high speed drill
  12. its not a ipsc gun, well i dont do ipsc with it. Heck you can easily do a 125 pf with most factory junk loads.
  13. Do you mean cut the case so that you have a compressed load? I am no expert but just for math purpose if you cut the length in half then your bullet has a very high chance of bouncing off the cylinder walls befor it gets to the forcing cone. Maybe if you cut the cylinder down to the new length and adjusted the barrel? Also a 38super generates 10,000 more psi than the max of a 38 spl.. advise caution If your pistol is ment to fire 357mag than you might be ok??
  14. I have a custom built Smith 64-5 38spl open gun for action pistol it has a bull barrel, barricade wings stick shift base, aim point the works... Why do I always feel out of place and get odd looks when everyone pulls out 8 shot PC Smiths? I can shoot moa groups @ 50 with it so why do I need to fallow the croud??
  15. I have used Donnies bullets in my 45 and love them! I know this will sound funny but with my muffs on they actually make a different sound when they are fired vs straight lead(ting sound). Precision Delta used to be 30 miles from my house. I got the grand tour of their operation one day and I have to say I was rather impressed. Their bullet making machines are WWII era and they are MASSIVE! Each one of those machines looked like they were putting out at least 2 bullets a second. Great people and always fun to deal with.
  16. Hello guys some friends of mine said i need to get on here and start learning. I am about to get into action pistol so you will see me ask a ton of questions about that.
