      44 magnum reloading problem

      It will be a couple of weeks. Got some traveling to do. Might get to the range next week, but I doubt it. Never had that much of a change between hand loads and factory before. Will be interesting.

      44 magnum reloading problem

      According to IMR, max load is 24 grains, producing 36100 cup and a volocity of 1778 out of a 20 inch barrel. Would be slower out of an 18 barrel. Max cup for 44 magnum is 40000 and 36000 psi. So I should be able to do that load. But think I will try working up to it.

      44 magnum reloading problem

      I am using a lee factory crimp die. Thought it was a medium crimp. Tried to set up to match the factory crimp to start. Might try tightening it some.

      Is this correct?

      I worked as a security guard in a retail setting for a couple of years at night. I carried a 1911, cocked and locked. Many well meaning young people expressed a concern about it. A lot of people don't understand the concept. Seems many of the younger generation are not familiar with the 1911.

      44 magnum reloading problem

      Thanks for the replies. I will try the chrono. According to my Hornady manual, 24.2 is the max load. It should be at 1700 fps at that load out of an 18 inch barrel. This is about the same as Hornady says the factory ammo should be.

      New "Dead Red" law

      Various states have similar laws. Most require you wait 2 cycles before turning. Problem is, you don't know which ones do. I normally wait one cycle and proceed with caution. Was stopped in Nevada for turning on red, had a nice visit with a friendly cop, who said next time do it when there were...

      Not being a Navy man, I don't know for certain, but I suspect we do the same thing. As one of my grade school teachers would have said, "get under your desk and cover your head. Duck and cover."
