I lost a Ruger .45 magazine in 34B years ago, I wonder if it hiked south looking for me?

I left one of my hammock suspension straps in a tree at the camp site at the end of the road last week. My hunt isn't over but I don't plan on going back there just to get it. I would buy you a fine craft beer at a local Tucson brewery if you happen to be headed up there and grab it.

Any interest in trades for .357 or .44 mag?

A bad day shooting is still better than a good day working so at least there's that.

One full box (20 rounds) of Winchester CXP2 120 gr positive expanding point. One partial box of the same with 7 rounds and 9 fired cases. One partial box Winchester Supreme 85 gr ballistic tip contains 13 rounds and 7 fired cases. Asking $45 for all of it. Would like to sell it all together. Located in Tucson but I get to Phoenix area about once a week for work. PM me a cell that I can text and we can arrange a meet.

I also have one you could borrow. It was for sale here and I got no response. I have a bunch of projectiles and accessories too.

It does look familiar.

You have your seating die improperly set up. Back the seating die out and then screw the seating stem in. That way the bullet is completely seated before the crimp starts. You don't have to do it in two operations!! I got the seating part down now. Have been seating in the RCBS die and got a Lee factory crimp die (which I had already ordered for a bulge buster kit) so I have been using 2 separate presses to complete the rounds. I did finally see the note in the instructions to back out the seating die for 10 mm so I will still try to get it down to one operation once I get a load dialed in. Thanks

Hey all, Just wondering if anyone has first hand experience with different seating plugs in the RCBS dies. I have a box of Hornady 180 grain xtp that gets crushed before I can finish seating them in both the 10mm and .40 S&W. By getting crushed I mean that the hollow point starts to cave in. I have tried both seating plugs that came with the dies, expanding the cases a tad more, seating without crimping, etc. I found additional seating plugs for the dies that are specifically for Speer Gold Dots and was thinking about picking them up. Wanted to see if anyone has used them on XTP'S with success or any other seating plug options out there before I take the plunge.

I am flaring the brass. I will try again seating without crimping and see what happens. I stopped after only a couple of failures.

Got an email from them in just a few hours containing the data. Time to hit the bench. I have a bunch of Barnes to load as well and I think I hear an Elk begging to be put down with this.

I got a bunch of free Sierra projectiles for 500 S&W and would love to throw them downrange if I could find data. I was unable to find much online and prefer to use manufacturers data so I went to purchase a Sierra manual only to find the 500 not listed? The listing on the back of the book anyway didn't show 500 Smith. I want to make sure before I buy that it is in there. Can anyone shine some light?

I did get a look at a manual today and the 500 is not in it. I can't believe the manual would be too old, 500 s&w has been around for a while. They make the bullets, but don't list any .50 cal loadings for rifle or pistol. I'm going to email them and see what they say.

Bumper Trades/ partial trades considered Looking for a newer savage model 10 preferably in .308 for a project among other things.

From a family members estate. Condition is excellent, doesn't look like it has been carried afield, just a range or bench gun. Has a Nikon monarch 6.5x20x44 scope with shade and target style turrets. Burris elite bases and rings. Included in the sale will be: 1 box of Winchester supreme ammo (20 rounds) 1 set RCBS dies 1 set Hornady dies (new) 500 fired cases (nickle plated winchester) Asking $850 OBO Located in NW Tucson, travel to Phoenix area weekly. PM me a cell number and we can arrange a meet.

Yeah, it was a no go. Breach block is bigger on the G20 both longer and wider. G20 and G21 are same frame size. G22 and G17 and G31 are same same... same with the 17 having smaller breach face, or maybe just different extractor. The G20 mags dont fit in the G22 buuut I got a 10mm round into the G22 mag and it seated with the slide locked back. I stopped there. I want the 6" barrel anyway. I have a red dot mount for my G20 and think it needs to take a pig. 6" barrel is obviously mandatory for this task as well. Expect a pm from me.

I don't think 10mm will swap to a smaller frame? I would consider if it did. I have a g22 and a g20. I may try it when I get home.

PM sent, sorry for the delay
