Re: looking for load confirmation

Uh, Mike??? Just where in hell can you find linotype in the year 2010, or were you joking about that?? Or are you talking about the metal they use these days to cast the cylindrical print segmets that go on the rotary newspaper print heads?? Oh, the powder du jour for the 500 is Lil' Gun and large ...

Re: My new RIA CS 1911 with holster porn!

These holsters appear to be a combination of Beauty, Function and Durability, Some of the best I have seen in recent memory.

I would like to know the prices but did not see them on the website, Where can I see prices?

I look forward to doing business soon

Re: looking for load confirmation

Never shot anything but plated and cast with my 500, and I think you probably know that. (Linotype?? Geez, you'd have to be an old phart like me to even know what linotype was.) The Smith 500 is simply not a cast bullet gun. You can push plated bullets (and the Ranier's hold together better that th...

Re: looking for load confirmation

Uhhhh... Gee, I don't feel like giving birth to a cow today. Sorry guys!! It IS common knowledge that cast lead bullets slide down the barrel with less friction than jacketed bullets, so for the exact same powder and bullet weight (AND shape!!) the pressures should be lower for cast lead bullets. T...

Re: Information on proper takedown of a revolver

the lower screw behind the trigger appears to be the same screw that is in the front of the trigger but is NOT, The front screw has been fitted to allow the crane sufficient tension when it is opened. These two lower screws need to be placed separately on your bench so as to be reinstalled in the c...

Re: Wood Grips: Smooth or Checkered?

a few years back I was able to pickup a set of Pachmayr "Bill Jordan" autographed grips for Rd. bt. K/L frame S&W Revolvers. I put them on my 2.5" 686 and while I like the design I do not use them since I hate "Good years" or plastic type grips. If anyone is interested i...

Re: looking for load confirmation

Kind of funny. They say on the Bullseye page "America's best known pistol powder. Unsurpassed for .45 ACP target loads." And yet under the 45 auto data , there is not a single recipe for 230gr LRN. Yeah that is odd, However they do list 230 FMJ and common knowledge is that Lead bullets of...

Re: looking for load confirmation

Is there a manual out there with load data for 230gr LRN on top of Bullseye for .45acp? I can't seem to find one........ Maybe its time to get another pistol powder...... Gosh I hope not, I'm pretty keen on bullseye. Lyman 48th Edition Reloading Handbook Bullseye powder 4.0gr. = 680 FPS 5.0gr. = 81...

Re: Information on proper takedown of a revolver

Important thing to remember when disassembling a S&W revolver is the screws location in the sideplate. A typical 3 screw sideplate has the most upper rear screw which is a flat surfaced head, the lower screw behind the trigger appears to be the same screw that is in the front of the trigger but ...
