I was kind of hoping you'd check in to slap me around a little bit. Oh Lord and the Saints preserve us, but why is it always the n00b who doesn't RTFM who winds up buying a high end Dillon so they can make reloading mistakes 10 times faster and produce 10 times as much potentially sketchy ammo?? Lym...
Based on the link above and using lead data vs jacketed, it looks like 5.4-5.9 is the range. You were using the jacked data(5.2 start), plated bullets are soft and most manufacturers recommend using lead data. You still need to work up, but generally they will need a little more powder than a simil...

The benefits of working up a load is not having a slide in your face and your hands blown apart. You ALWAYS work up a load. Unless you really like the hospital.

So far I only have the primers, brass, and bullets. I still need the press and literally every other piece of related equipment luckily that...

Hello everyone, I am looking for someone to install some night sights on a H&K sub-compact handgun. Does anyone know of a reputable place in the twin-cities to do this sort of thing? Or perhaps there is an experienced forum member interested in making some cash? I would also be willing to trade ...
