I think I need to stiffen it up a bit. It's to soft.

Mbills has a pill for that...

 

[jagee]

I'm pretty clueless. So maybe see if I blow myself up first.

Ooo, good call.

Also Robby, with .223/5.56 you have to lube the cases before you size them. Don't let them sell you any other lube but this....Hornady Manufacturing Company :: Reloading :: Metallic Reloading :: Tools & Gauges :: Lubes & Cleaners :: One Shot® Spray Case Lube 5 Oz w/Dyna Glide Plus

Good to know!

With 5.56 it's hard to do, most powders pretty much fill up the case at a normal charge, almost impossible to double charge them.

Different animal with 9mm. There are some powders that you can do that. Shadow & I were talking about Titegroup earlier, that's one that you could double charge without the powder running out of the case.

Good morning skulldaddy! We have a sleep number bed too. I can't sleep in a bed very much at all anymore. But if I do I'm glad I have it. Amazing beds. Also there's one of the hotels in Chicago we stay at who's beds I really like

Morning Greg...

Howdy Greg

Ugh...all you guys are a bad influence. I convinced myself that I shouldn't reload because I'm not good at paying attention to detail and being precise...but I'm pretty sure that was just a cop out to avoid it.

Now I'm considering it...

Jagee, they have a very good reloading class out at Fall Creek.

TiteGroup and Longshot both will not overflow the case. For velocity Longshot is my go to powder. (It's cleaner the TG, too.)

alright... need to get my together and off to profire. cya!

I thought they would with 9mm, I stand corrected. I have switched over to CFE Pistol. I really like that stuff.

We love ours. But since we moved it seems to lose air after awhile. I need to take it apart and see what's up with it. I need a really stiff bed. Or my back gets out of whack.

9mm at about $.12 a round. Less than that if you use cast lead.

I don't like cast lead for my reloads, it's too smoky. I always use plated or FMJ.

Is the settings not automatic with reduction of pressure. For what they cost I would hope so.
We have a pillow top water bed replacement mattress (California King) with a 2" memory foam on top of that. Heaven.
