    What caused my case to do this? (Help)

    Re: What caused my case to do this? (Help) The only time I've ever seen this issue was with excessive case lube during the reloading process. Are you 100% sure these cases couldn't have slipped through the reloading process unnoticed? An inward bulge like that seems tough considering the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns So I picked this up

    Re: So I picked this up The good news is ... it's a .45 ACP! Combat proven in WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam as a man-stopper with good 'ole 230 grain FMJ ammo. And if it feeds reliability, why not simply stick with what is working? I have zero issues carrying ball ammo in my .45 -- when...

    Re: 168 gr A-max 42.5 grains of Varget was my most accurate load for 168 SMKs. I've also used it for AMAXs. Keep in mind that depending on conditions that bullet will start to go subsonic and tumble somewhere between 800 and 1000 yards. For longer ranges (800+) the 175 SMK works great...

    Re: Coyote hunt turns into kitty hunt! **VIDEO** Great video -- thanks for sharing. Great shot, too - it initially appeared as if the cat was looking straight at you but the entry/exit wound tells otherwise. Thanks again - I really enjoyed the video.
