[SDB Link Arm broken]

I was loading some 9mm on my Square Deal B. After about 50 rounds , I noticed that the OAL was inconsistent. I had set it to 1.13 but seeing 1.16 now. Adjusting the bullet seating didn't help. Then after checking the press I noticed this ..

I couldn't understand what happened. I thoroughly clean and lube the press every 6 months
Anyway I called dillon and the replacement part is on the way. Go Dillon !!

[Is Titegroup dirty for you guys?]

I've used TG for years on all my reloads 9/40/45
It's dirtier compared to WSF but I clean my guns after I shoot 'em

[Mag Holders For G34 Mags in USPSA?]

I like the versatility of the cr speed mag pouch
I can fit my glock,cz,m&p,2011 and 1911 mags with the right spacer

another vote for talon granulated grip (on my G34 /G17/G23)

hasn't moved since I installed it 3 yrs ago and shooting matches/practice in all weather

[Brass Juice - thoughts??]

it works great for me. 9/40/45. I do deprime them before tumbling with warm water for about an hour

[apex M&P 5" barrel + acme 145gr bullet issue]

I have thousands of acme 145s and I would have wanted it to work with my usual oal at 1.13.

max oal I've tested was 1.09 

I'll try the Ibejihead 147 and BB 135gr TC when I get a chance but for now I'll stick with the xtremes

[apex M&P 5" barrel + acme 145gr bullet issue]

I recently installed a semi fit apex 5" barrel on my m&p 9L 
My go to load is a 145gr acme bullet 1.12 oal with no issues on my other 9s including the orig m&p barrel
The same load is tight in the apex 5" barrel and doesn't drop freely. tried to shoot 100 rounds and had 5 failure to eject and failure to go into battery. when I shorten the oal to 1.0 (which I don't want to do) it passes the plunk test
  No issues with the plated 147gr xtreme at 1.12 -1.14 oal or factory rounds (blazer 115, winchester, freedom munitions)
I know this has to do with bullet shape but what bullet do you guys use in your apex 5" ?

Please do.

I just got 2 SI mag extension for my G17/G34. For some reason I can only load 22 rounds of 9mm (as oppose to 23 17+6 as advertised)

Tried to load just 12 rounds and dropped both mags on concrete several times to see if either will crack but both held up good

Shot 100 rnds each with no issues and slide locked back after the last round

true test will be on a match few weeks from now . 

[Federal SPP Shortage]

placed order at cabelas on 12/7 for 20k federal #100

initial shipping date was 1/25. when I followed up it was moved to 2/27

I received the primers today

 

[xtreme in a bucket?]

I also ordered bulk .40 from them on black friday . 3 weeks (and 2 follow up calls) went by and it still wasn't shipped with no notice

I  canceled the order on dec 20 and ordered blue bullets instead. received the BB within 4 days

Will never order xtreme again

[moving (driving) to texas from florida with guns/ammos]

HR that's good to know. I'm thinking of doing the same. didn't realize how freakin heavy 6000 rounds is.

Too bad I cant put them in the PODS.

I'll leave them in the trunk all the way

[moving (driving) to texas from florida with guns/ammos]

thanks guys for your response.

stevie I'll be in irving/dallas tx area.

Any good range in the area for uspsa matches? maybe we can meet their someday.

I really enjoy the matches here in FL.

I was actually thinking of bringing the bag (with guns) with me to the motel instead of just locking it in the trunk. is that a bad idea?

[moving (driving) to texas from florida with guns/ammos]

hi guys,

I'll be moving (driving) to dallas, texas next month from florida and i'll bring all my guns (6 handguns, a shotgun and an ar-15 )/ammos (~6000 rnds - I shoot in competition) with me. As for the handguns they'll be all in the case and gun locked, the AR and shotgun I plan to disassemble them and put the lowers in a bag together with the guns. both ammos and guns will be in the trunk of my car , I'm a CCW holder in FL and will be passing through AL, MS and LA (will stay overnight for a rest in a motel)

I have looked at the firearm transport laws /handgunlaw.us/Reciprocity states/nra-ila and I was just wondering if my plan is good or if I'm missing anything.

Any advice/comment is very much appreciated

thank you
