I thought of some more. Mom aiding accidentally shot husband is shot accidentally? Husband shot accidentally, then mother shot accidentally? Two accidental shootings? Two accidental shootings among family members? One person accidentally shot when another family member shot as well? A husband is sho...

Mom aiding accidentally shot husband is accidentally shot?
Mom aiding accidentally shot husband is also accidentally shot?

Thanks again 45badger for the 9mm. haven't had a chance to shoot my loads yet but am looking forward to it.

Yup. Used reloading equipment is like buying a used anvil. Not a lot to worry about. Only problem is paying good money for irrelevant old stuff that you may never need. Or really weird, old stuff where there are no replacement parts left (Like Herter's!). There are some details that enter into this...

I personally just started reloading about a month ago. I bought a new $400 Hornady Lock and Load progressive. with a bunch of other stuff for almost $1000 total. Here is a press i found on CL.. its blue but hey it will get your started. thats a progressive version. it also has dies with it. http:...

whats c.o.l. are you running then? i'm going off some store bought ammo measurements, and when i put it in the mag it feeds fine, and when i cycle in through the gun (by hand) it kicks out and loads another shell no problem.

Can I ask what gun you are shooting? I've got a Ruger P95 4" barrel and am only reloading plinker paper ripping rounds. BUT I don't need to blow my gun up haha.

I chose the red cool aid and went progressive. My powder drop have been very very good to me. it could be the fact that in my press i got th...

Ahhh got ya. All clear now

Well... look what I started. hahaha alright everyone settle down. Everyone has good points, some people mistook and misunderstood words from others. I'll start off by saying yes, I have 5 reloading paper books. Lymann 49th edition which has informed me of more information then I found of the interne...

Alright I'm just a little confused. I've reloading a 1000, 45 ACP, 230 gr rounds with no problems. But I just started reloading 9mm luger and have ran into a scratch the head moment. I'm using Brass: Mixed Bullets : Berrys MFG, 115 gr Round Nose Powder: Hodgdon Clays Primer: Remington 1 1/2 Small Pi...
