      Not sure if this has been asked before so here goes

      You will rarely handle individual primers, so that should not concern you. You will likely dump a pack of 100 primers into a primer tray, shake them until they are all upside down, flip them over with the lid on, and then pick them up with a primer tube. You will mainly handle cases and bullets...

      Lost ammo found

      I always wondered how that happens every time I hear of someone finding ammo they forgot about. At the end of last year, after I did my annual inventory of primers and bullets I was cleaning my reloading room. I found two cases of Federal primers I had forgotten about. I normally keep Federals...

      2022 Black Friday deals?

      I just saw their FB post. Seems like they changed it this year. You get 30% off of the card instead of 50% added on. For online orders use code BF30 https://visitburgerhaus.com/product/gift-card/

      Flat-Faced Triggers

      I installed a flat trigger on a 1911 for a buddy years ago. DID NOT like it on a 1911. It did not feel right to me, but he liked it.

      2022 Black Friday deals?

      Not exactly gun related, but many in our pistol league (Blythe's in Valpo) go to Burgerhaus after shooting, so it's more gun tangent. The Friday after Thanksgiving, Burgerhaus is having their sale on gift cards. You will receive an additional 50% of the total gift card purchase. Ex: spend...

      Case Trimmers

      That is my experience also. Here is a good article about this issue using 45 ACP as an example. I found this article around 5 years ago and shared it with my shooting league. Some of my bullseye shooting freinds were asking about trimming their 45 brass. I felt it was not needed and might be...

      For those that shoot USPSA moon clipped revolvers.

      I think minor is fine (if not required) for 8-shot revolvers. I haven't shot USPSA in quite a while, so others may know the Major/Minor question more than me. When I did shoot USPSA, I shot a 625 (6-shoot 45 ACP) and shot Major. I would just shoot minor and use those 125gr bullets. Below are...

      For those that shoot USPSA moon clipped revolvers.

      I shoot ICORE and Steel Challenge with a few 627 revolvers. For those matches I load 158gr RN (Zero, swaged bullets). I don't know that you need to change your ENTIRE set up. Just powder charge and seating depth. I have 13 different 38 special loads, depending on the gun and use. Not difficult...

      Warsaw Steel Challenge LAST ONE! 11/5

      Best place to shoot in Northwest Indiana?

      We have a winter pistol league at Blythe's in Valpo. We shoot on Tuesday nights starting at 5pm. Six shooters are on the line at once and we usually run three lines, so not everyone starts shooting at 5. We have a 5 and 6 week course of fire and run a drill after the entire COF is completed...

      Fifth Saturday Match?

      Don't know of any on Saturday, but I'm in NW Indiana. There is an all shotgun match on Sunday in Brookston. Wildcat Valley Rifle & Pistol Club On Sunday, Oct 30th: Boomstick Challenge http://www.wvrpc.org/

      S&W Performance Center Question

      I have many S&W revolvers. Some of them are from the PC. I did not choose them because they were PC, I chose them for certain features. For instance, I chose the PC version of the 8-shot 627 because of the 5" barrel. The standard 627 has a 4" barrel. I never cared for the 4" S&W revolvers. I do...

      WVRPC Snubby Match October 9th

      Thanks for putting on the match. It was a lot of fun. You guys always put on a great match. I enjoy coming down there and shooting with you all.

      For the wheelgun gurus out there

      All you revolver shooters here, check out the Wildcat Valley Snubby match tomorrow, October 9th. Snub-nose revolvers w/ 3" or less barrels. The 686 is too heavy for their stated limit, but my 3" 66 will be fun to shoot. Bring out your snubbies and join the fun. The scoring is set up to favor...

      For the wheelgun gurus out there

      That's a good one. Short barreled SA w/ birdshead grips. Cartridge you already have. Good suggestion. That might be fun in Steel Challenge.

      For the wheelgun gurus out there

      Your three choices could not be more different and you have no clear use for the gun. You said you want a SA revolver. It seems now you are leaning towards a DA in 10mm. That's fine. Colt556 mentioned his 5" 610 revolver. I suggest getting a 5" if that's the route you decide on. I have two 5"...
