Any wildcatters out there? Last summer, while loading up some .357 Sig, I had a 10mm case get mixed in with my brass and didn't catch the issue until it was resized. Since then, I've been thinking that this might be the next big thing in pistols. How about near 10mm case capacity but pushing a 9mm pill? 9mm Magnum anyone?

At the very least, it would help to alleviate the neck tension issues that you have to watch for when reloading .357 Sig.

I just ordered 500 rounds of .357 Sig. Plan for 2024 is to begin reloading for that round and 10mm. Because paying $.50 per round kinda sucks. Lol.

It sure does. The only real issue I have encountered with reloading. 357 Sig is that a fair amount of the brass has small flash holes.

Morning folks

I kind of feel almost human today!

This gives me a good reason to learn how to reload pistol cartridges, I've only done rifle so far.

Morning Gents.

So this group had me thinking about a conversation I had with my uncle this past summer. We got talking about gun competitions. He is working with his local high school on Trap & Skeet shooting, since he has done that since the 70s. His grandson is into it as well. Well, we were talking and I talked about my plan for a competition race gun.


So last night I hit HKParts and started pricing out what all I want to add/change on my VP9. It is going to get expensive (at least for me). We will see how long it takes for me to save up for everything, and if I get distracted before being done.

I don't have ADHD, but sometimes I wonder.

I say go for it. And post updates as you go.

Pistol cartridges are much easier to do. I load about 450 to 500 rounds per hour using a Dillion 550.

Case, primer, powder, bullet. Squeeze together. Repeat.

 

[Leadeye]

Never been there.

Me either. I think just the parking costs would be discouraging.

Like the 357 Automag cartridge of old, I've been following the new AM company to see when they resurrect it.

Divide by 2 for my speed. I am slow.

I am sorry. Modified procedure for you.

Research, measure, apply, test, recheck, retest, measure, confirm, verify and then case, measure, apply, test, recheck, retest, measure, confirm, verify and then primer, measure, apply, test, recheck, retest, measure, confirm, verify and then powder, measure, apply, test, recheck, retest, measure, confirm, verify and then bullet, measure, apply, test, recheck, retest, measure, confirm, verify and then. Squeeze together measure, apply, test, recheck, retest, measure, confirm, verify and then.

Repeat after reevaluating and reverifying entire process.

And that would be for every round loaded.

Only T-dogg loads 9mm with a SD of 0.00000000000001 and finds it unacceptable.

Slow and steady wins the race !

I do hope they can be successful!
