I love the slide going forward when I slap in a mag

I have an M&P45 with the threaded barrel, I used some blue loctite, so far so good.

Why you such a butthead? Too much lead?

Try a few and see how they work?

Makes me think of the camo survial knives, you drop it and you will not survive

My 9mm production is increasing and it is time to upgrade from the single round case gauge. Looking for feedback on the two big names.

What press? I use a 550 and with that design a little play doen't matter as long as all dies are adjusted while the play is there.

For an AR shooter and reloader, I don't see it being that great a round. If your already set with 5.56/.223 it seems like a big investment. Replace upper and or barrel, replace mags and collect new brass. For 300 more fps might be a nitch thing. The only reason I might get a .300 blkout would be the fact I just need an upper, all my mags will work. I would use my shot out 5.56 brass which is the biggest reason.

I've used it. Nothing special, nothing bad. I use it with 55gr plated out to 100m with no problems.

Very interesting

I'm a tinkerer of sorts and wondering what it would take to do it. I was wanting a S&W R8 for a toy. Then my thoughts got worse after seeing an M-47 medusa. So if I open the cylider up for 9mm, how bad will the .357 brass buldge? Ejectable? Reloadable?

So a base/head of a 9mm is wider than a .357 body ?

I have my old rock chucker that did nothing since I got my dillon 550. Once I got into casting bullets, it has found a new purpose swaging the cast bullets. The next story in the rock chuckers life will be swaging crimped primer pockets.

I am an auto-pistol owner (only wheel guns I own are cap n ball). I am looking to get a revolver. I have one I can never afford, a medusa, that would fire 357, 38, 9mm, 38 apc, 380 acp etc... Now comes the strange thoughts and questions... Will any .357 fire .38's? If I get a .357 that can be used with or without moon clips, could I not just make moon clips to run the auto ammo rounds that would chamber?

From what I found out is that the barrels are considered a "duty barrel" and not a percision barrel but more like a glock barrel designed for reliability over accuracy. So I pass

Just my thoughts here, the 9mm was designed around the 124gr bullet and that bullet is the standard military round, and the 320 was designed for and has become the standard U.S. military sidearm. I find the 124/125 gr bullets let you shoot accuratly at differant distances with the same powder charge. I find the 147's seem to need different loads for different distances.

Went to field & stream yesterday and cleaned out their winchester spp's and a k of sppm's 5k total. They had lotsa federal but at $39 a K, I went for the winnies. I can't wait for the new Cabelas to open this year. Only a few miles down the road, I'm gunna go broke.

Lamps are easy to make! You could use a vintage powder can or if you can afford it even a press? I made this one for my man cave.

On my 550 I just remove the failsafe rod, 2 pins holding the head then dump and cycle a few times into my brass funnel. I haven't found an easy way to get the primers out. I just load my tube with the amount I need, make them in batches of 100, or leave them till the next time I load.

I'm looking to up grade my M&P9 fs. I have used stormlake and they work nice, but I found a good price on an aac. Just looking for some feedback on the aac barrels.

Would this work? It's only semi.

To get back on topic, what about vintage gunpowder metal cans. There are some really nice display quality ones out there.

CCI no berdan. 8mm sell for almost a $1 a case next step, resize .270 or learn to convert berdan to boxer primers. Youtube makes it look easy

Up date, called tula usa. They said because of obummer, no more tula primers to be imported.

Yes, and diameter is larger. To convert it needs the flash hole drilled out and a sleeve added to hold a boxer primer. Tula makes the berdan primers, but no one has them in stock
