Cast vs Fmj load questions?
Brenden replied to rustybayonet's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
you're looking for data for a rifle, using magnum pistol powder. The cast bullet guys do that for powder puff loads, I think you should look at a different powder. -
Super 1050 caliber conversion 9/40
Brenden replied to doc88's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
How about the other way, I have a super 1050 set up for .40. Will the shell plate work for 9mm? -
Dillon XL650 time saver?
Brenden replied to Hoosiershooter's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
That's me, ordered a 1050 this evening. -
I'm loading 6.1gr behind a 230gr lead rn. I haven't chrono'd it but runs great.
-
I must have got a good one. It runs like a top, seem to see mixed reviews.

I'm having a similar problem with a couple sti mags. I installed a thinned and stippled grip and now it flexes a bit, I have 5 mags for the gun and the 2 I bought most recent are the problem ones. I measured them all a the problem one are a few hundredths of an inch thicker front to back. I know this doesn't help you but I didn't want to start a similar topic.

Is any Winchester powder even making it to the reloading market? I haven't seen any at all in 15 months. I am not shooting much at all right now, I've not seen pistol powder at any local shops in 6 months. My job gets in the way of finding any online, I do check gunbot a couple times a day.

I have this setup, it yields 20 reloadable with untuned tubes.

bullet type OAL and case volume question
Brenden replied to LegionShooter's topic in 10mm/40 Caliber
Understood. If I decide to run both the PDs and the BBIs at 1.18 though, would I have to adjust powder charge to compensate for lesser case volume? Or is the difference not enough to be concerned with since both are 180gr bullets? Start with a well below max powder charge, the one with less case volume will have higher pressure. A chronograph is very useful in this situation, you could find that both bullets yield a similar fps. -
None of this is true, there is plenty of data on .40 major. Plenty of shooters on this site use WST which to make major requires them to dabble in the "over max load" area when using heavier bullets but most are experienced reloaders that increase oal to allow for increases in pressure. I have a shelf full of powders that are used in .40 s&w including; Titegroup, Win231, Win WSF, Win WST, Longshot, Clays and others.

I'm going to assume you mean for a 2011. I use 5 untuned mags, 3 with dawson basepads, and graham's guts the other 2 are stock. I have not had a single mag related malfunction in about 3k rounds.
-
The tubes are about 140mm, the base pad from Dawson's adds a few mm to it increasing capacity by 1. They actually cover the bottom 3/4" or so of the tube. The part slid out captures the lip on the tube.

Here's a video on extractor tension, there are others on youtube for adjusting it give this a look. It sounds like too tight of tension on it.
-
I like the heavier bullet with this powder because, it seems to push rather than snap. I hope that makes sense, I'm able to follow my sights all the way through the recoil pulse.
-
Do they limit orders? I ordered 20k I hope they send them all, everyone else seems to have a 5k limit.

5.3gr WSF 1.135 OAL Fed spp 180 gr Flat Point Magma bullet that I cast myself Out of STI Edge makes 170 PF

140mm mags are hard to get right now, I've had some backordered since January. I bought a Dawson CRP Edge last year to run in Limited, 2k rounds so far and has run really well out of the box.
