They’ll be at the Bloomington show. Call their shop and put in an order for pick up at the show. They are nearly out of 4064 and the worldwide powder shortage is going to get worse.
Commonly called the “From Hell” series. 12ga most common. They use heavy machined hulls, such as from Rocky Mountain. The Magtech are thin, ballon-head style and won’t take nearly as much pressure. Forming 24ga ones into 577/450 M-H, an old low pressure cartridge that is still higher than...
I have read that supposedly you can form and trim them to make Martini Henry cases.
The 24ga ones yes. 12ga no. The 24ga makes 577 Snider and 577/450 M-H.

I've had two emails come to me in the last two days saying someone tried to log in here on INGO and that if it wasn't me, I need to change my password. Seems like things are a real mess right now.
Not too surprising. It's quality control that is missing, so most batches are "ok", some are borderline functional and dirty (like ancjr above), and some are dangerous to the point they have to have a recall (like is currently underway for several lots of WWB/Browning/Herter's). Making...
Small pistol - standard and magnum versions.
Small rifle - standard and magnum versions, plus the CCI #41 which is NATO spec.
Large pistol - standard and magnum versions
Large rifle - standard and magnum versions, plus the CCI #34 which is NATO spec.
#35 size - used in 50 BMG and a few similar...
Most Browning ammo is made by Winchester. Some of the Browning products are Browning designs, but made for them by Winchester (Olin). Other products, like the 9mm FMJ in the recall, is the same stuff just with a different headstamp and in different packaging. The primary difference in the...
Trump caught a whole lot of hell for his bumpstock ban and rightfully so. The VEPR ban was barely a blip on the radar screen in comparison. Reagan and Bush Sr. both also caught hell for the anti-gun stuff on their watch, but Reagan also had positives such as mail order ammo being OK again, old...
Various Turk ammo (9mm and 12ga) has been on the market here for a while now (several months and examples include Yavex, Venom, ZQI, and Ozkursan in 9mm and BPS, Zuber, and Sterling in 12ga). The SAR branded stuff is just the most recent. Interestingly, primers for some of the Turk 9mm came...
Sorry, but I'm not buying this - at all.
First, and most important point: .22 rimfire is made on dedicated, separate, production lines using several pieces of equipment that are fundamentally different than what is used for centerfire. Manufacturers absolutely are NOT converting a line from...
You're not the only one having problems with Winchester and this recall. And people wonder why I tend to recommend brands like PPU instead. It's a shame that Winchester is such a historic name in the industry. I like their company history and a lot of their OLD products, but their new stuff...
Unfortunately, there is no spare manufacturing capacity left in the US for doing that. Something else will have to not get made in order for x39 to get a turn. And primers continue to be the bottleneck for both domestic and foreign makers. Some foreign "makers" (who are really just loading...
Interesting. During the Obama shortage, I converted six Blazer Aluminum 45 Colt cases from berdan primer to large pistol boxer and then reloaded them in the normal fashion. Test fired all six cartridges in a Ruger Super Redhawk 454 Casull and half of the cases split 3/4 of their entire length...
It's French 30 Carbine ammo, brass cased, berdan primed, and corrosive. Shooting this in an M1 Carbine is not the best idea since proper cleaning to completely remove the corrosive residue requires that you disassemble the gas piston and nut which is staked in place. It was designed to be a...
