    185 gr. .45 acp jswc sanity check.

    Hats Off! to Hodgdon! I have 10 reloading manuals all the way back to 1970. Very few list COL for 185 gr. LSWC .45 ACP. So I sent the Hodgdon Reloading Data Center (RDC) with a question regarding the COL for 185 gr MBC LSWC. They sent me a prompt reply thanking me for bring this to their...

    185 gr. .45 acp jswc sanity check.

    Hodgdon Reloading data center for 185 gr JSWC 5.0 - 5.5 gr. Titegroup with COL 1.135" (bullet on left). Bullet on right is MBC 185 gr. cast SWC5.3 - 6.0 gr. Titegroup with COL 1.245", which piuts the case mouth just barely touching the upper band. I would prefer to seat the CAST SWC to...

    shoulder holster

    I recommend Black Hills Leather, Laredo TX. They made a shoulder holster for my SP101 and size it to a person as well as the firearm

    Power Custom hammer and trigger question.

    I installed a PC hammer and trigger in a new model single-six. All of my Ruger revolvers have triggers massaged by me, as I am fussy about my triggers. When I installed the PC kit I didn't have to do anything to the trigger, - It is fantastic. Can't answer your question about the free spin...

    RCBS auto bench primer?

    I've bee priming my brass in separate steps for over 50 years. Worn out a lot of hand held ones. I finally tried the RCBS bench priming tool. Gives good feel when seating, uses the standard RCBS shell holders. I like it. I'm not in a big hurry when I'm loading and I like to watch the tool...

    new to me XL750

    Yes, I saw Contender's post on the light and promptly ordered one. It is fantastic. Showed it to my buddy who uses a Dillon in his garage and complains about not enough light. He promptly ordered one for his 550. Thanks for your posts. BTW whenever I see a post by Contender, I pay...

    new to me XL750

    Kevin - I did not get the optional case feeder. I bought it from Titan reloading as they had a $60 off at the time. It was easy to set up, but I got the .32 S&W long/ .32 H&R set up. Once I tried to bell a case mouth, I realized it was set up to the .32 S&W. Took me a while and several you...

    new to me XL750

    I've been a single stage reloader for over 50 years, but lately I can't keep enough 32 H&R loaded up, so I bought my first progressive, a Dillon XL 750. Wow! It is a fantastic loader. My plinker load for the 32 H&R is a 78 cast round nose with 3.0 gr of Titegroup. Lots of fun in my LCR. I...

    LCR 327 Fed. Mag.

    I have 4 327 fed mag revolvers and one rifle. My EDC is a .327 LCR. Big advantage over the 357 is 6 shots instead of 5. I load it down from max 327 but above 32 H&R. I like it so much I bought my son one. My LGS is over 100 miles away. He always gives me a decent price, so I don't even...

    help with Holster for Schofield

    It is a 5 inch barrel. It is very accurate and fun to shoot, using Speer 250 gr swaged LSWC and 9.0 gr Unique. Thanks for asking.

    help with Holster for Schofield

    Thanks for your quick responses. Bob, based on one of your posts from some time ago, I tried Graveyard Jack. He said he wasn't making holsters anymore due to physical hand/wrist problems. I'll try him again. Thanks Sacramento, I'll give them a call.

    help with Holster for Schofield

    Beggin' yer pardon as this is not about a Ruger. I have not been able to find a proper holster for my Schofield. The ones I have found do not have a deep enough notch to keep the front latch clear. I recently watched a Hickok45 video "Schofield Again" and it looked like he had a proper...
