  1. My wife would like a softer trigger on her carry pistol, Sig 365X. Maybe someone can direct me to a good established gun smith who might be able to work on it. I am in Phoenix, but can ship it out. Thanks

    Hi, I’m sorry I don’t have an answer to your question, but you might want to check Glock’s website to see if their Armorer’s Course is being offered near you and once you take it you’d be good to go!

    Thank you

    My dasher the process i use is i FL resize with expander ball out and then use the mandrel, my theory is let's say the neck is not the same thickness all the way around i would rather the inside of the neck be the same size than the outside i might be wasting my time adding the extra step but thats how I do it

    Are you using a neck sizing die after you resize, and before you use the mandrel die, or do you neck with a bushing during the fl sizing die? Thanks

  4. Follow up question(s) please:

     

    I have had good success with no set back. I am reloading FGMM brass in 308, with 175 SMK projectiles. I have been using a neck bushing size .334. I am not sure if this is providing to much neck tension. I have bushings in 335, 336 and 337.

    Will to much neck tension cause grouping problems?

     

    What would be your recommendation. 

  5. I use a Redding type S match die set, the full length resizing set. I use FGMM brass only with Sierra 175 grain SMK projectiles.

     

    The neck tension bushing is a 334 size, and the finished ammo comes out to 337. I seat 175 SMK's to 2.800. Case gauges 100%, goes into the chamber no issues.

     

    Would you think I need to do any type of crimp if I am running these loads in an AR-10 platform?

     

    This method holds the bullet really well.

     

    Thanks

  6. Over the past 5 years, I have suffered from bones touching in the thumb joint. This caused a lot of pain.

    I recently had surgery where they removed some arthitis from the bone ends of my thumb joint, They did a tendon transfer from the wrist into the thumb joint.

    The good news is it removed the pain. After a few months of recovery, I can move the thumb pretty well, but have no strength in the right hand.

    Being a lofty "C" class shooter, I don't plan on burning down any area championships. I would like to start over after the other hand gets fixed.

    Any advice getting started again?

    After rehab, the physician says go at it until it hurts...

    I thought about shooting steel challenge with a 22, then production with a 9mm, then back to the 40.

    It might take awhile.

    Thanks

  7. I posted this over at Nordic, but thought maybe someone else can assist.

    I have an older Nordic set for my 22. I want to take off the larger froegrip abd put a barrel nut on it so I put a different fore grip/rail

    I am trying to separate the threaded portion off of the u-shaped part. I have tried a strap wrench, no luck. Any advice? Can I just buy the u-shaped part from you?

    Thanks
