      Question by '' on classified ad 'Small pistol primers for trade for 20ga wads, primers, components'

      I am considering loading 20 ga heavy loads- I have an inertia system Benelli that needs heavy loads until broken in. If I remember correctly, International Clays appears in some of the formulas, but I would have to check. I have also found that Wass for the 20ga, especially 1 oz and larger are...

      Question by '' on classified ad '500rds Argentine 7.92x57'

      I have no doubt that you have 7.92x57 ammo there, but my question is -“Is it Argentine?”- Argentine ammo is 7.65x57 and was use in the 1891 rifles and carbines up until the 1970s. A quick search of the web suggests that the A A might be of Danish Manufacture.

      Lawyer for gun trust

      I am wondering if you gentlemen can point me in the right direction here. A friend whose father is demented is attempting to move his father’s collection of firearms from New Mexico to Maryland. From a brief conversation, it doesn’t sound like there are any prohibited firearms. My friend’s dad...

      Bullet placement is the key

      It’s a military thing. Rifles, pistols, and revolvers are not “guns”, they are rifles, pistols and revolvers. Picture a recruit holding a rifle in one hand and grasping his genitalia with the other. “ This is my rifle, this is my gun. One is for shooting, the other’s for fun” DocAitch

      What is the Benefit of an O/U? Sem-Autos Cost Less.

      A large part of the cost is the labor involved in regulating the barrels. They must be soldered together, test patterned, and if off, must be taken down, refitted and test patterned again - ad infinitum. This is neither cheap nor quick. Same deal with double rifles, and you don’t see those start...

      .30 carbine

      As far as I know, H110 and W296 are the same powder. I know that Hodgdon's current data for these powders is identical, and suspect that the variation of data prior to the most recent is due to factors other than the powder. DocAitch

      Lee Classic loader ?

      I set off 2 primers while loading 44 MAG with one. The heavy punch sitting over the primer mitigated the blast, and it was only unpleasant. I had a worse hearing problem when I set off a small pistol primer in a Dillon 650 (the "WHEEEEEE" noted by Traveler for 2 days). Have several sets in...

      Dillon care and maintenance?

      Dillon Maintainence I have loaded well in excess of 100,000 rounds on my 650 and generally only use a soft paint brush to clean the machine. Occasionally,the shell plate fails to index fully and a primer lip catches the edge of the primer pocket before "snapping" into place, causing some...

      OOPS!

      Weighing Loaded Rounds I, too, think weighing loaded cases has too many variables. A squib that I was aware of is easily handled. I would not want someone who was not aware of the potential problem to be shooting that ammo. I had a problem with the powder dispenser on a Lee 1000 where I...

      Outdoor powder storage

      That 50,000# of pressure is generated because there is a bullet that is fit snugly in the bore. A refrigerator door held shut with a magnetic strip would probably only cause an overpressure of a couple of pounds per square inch before it released. Not an issue. DocAitch

      Outdoor powder storage

      I agree with Ted Smokeless powder is a flammable solid, not an explosive. As long as the refrigerator door is only held closed with it's magnetic strip, there is no danger of "explosion". Put some kind of mechanical latch or lock on it, and it would be a different story. Read some of Hatcher's...
