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

From a relatives estate. 1 box of 100 new Remington bulk cases from Midway. $50 3 boxes of 20 Remington new unfired cases (in somewhat vintage remington boxes) $10 each 184 fired cases. $75 Buyer to pay actual shipping unless we meet up in Tucson or occasionally Phoenix area.

From a relatives estate. 1 sealed bag of 50? fired Hornady brass $20 1 unopened box of 50 Speer 400gr GDSP #3976 $ SPF 1 Unopened box of 50 Hornady400gr XTP #47550 $ SPF 19 loaded rounds in a Hornady box, bullets are mismatched so I'm calling them handloads of unknown recipe. These will be thrown in if someone buys the rest. Local is Tucson, I get to Phoenix area pretty often. Pm me a cell# and we can meet up.

Yes, $175 for all. PM replied.

From a relatives estate. Fired brass was from a Winchester model 70. I don't think they make them anymore (the rifles or the brass). 7 bags of 50 new Winchester brass $25 each 1 plastic case containing 39 nickel plated fired cases, 3 brass fired cases, and 6 plated cased handloads will be thron in to the first deal I can make that totals $50 or more. Local to Tucson but get to Phoenix area pretty often. PM me a cell # and we can meet up.

From a relatives estate. Pretty sure all of the fired cases were from a Ruger #1 100 once fired nickel plated Federal cases $ SPF I have 6 boxes of loaded ammo from Conely Precision Cartridge. A brief web search didn't bring up anything recent and the past didn't look great. What I found was poor reviews mostly related to customer service, inferior product. This company is likely out of business and if it was me, I would not trust the ammo, not that I think it is dangerous to shoot. I would think if your going to fire your 416 Rigby, it's not for fun or plinking but for serious game or checking accuracy. This ammo may not excel in either department so why bother? I have fired the 416 #1, unfortunately I dont think it was with this ammo and I don't think my relative shot much of it either (there are only 5 fired and no other Norma brass in the lot) and we never discussed it. I will price them taking the value of the components, but the labor to pull them into account. 1 box of 20 Norma brass, Hornady 400gr fmj projectile $25 1 box of 20 Norma brass, Barnes TSX 350 gr $30 1 box of 20 Norma brass, Swift A-frame 400 gr $25 1 box of 20 Norma brass, Barnes TSX 400gr $30 1 box of 20 Norma bass, Nosler Partition 400 gr $25 1 box of 15 Norma brass, Barnes 400 gr round nose solid, 5 fired Norma cases $25 I am local to Tucson, but get to Phoenix area pretty often.

From a family members estate. I have 5 unopened boxes of Hornady new brass, 1 opened box of Hornady new brass with 28 pieces. A plastic case containing 11 handloads. A scrap of paper indicates that they are 450 gr bullets and they appear to be Barnes in front of 75 grains of 4064 powder. I don't know the brand of powder. I remember shooting this firearm on an outing with this relative and just about all I remember was the recoil and that it was a bolt action. I know that he was an avid reloader, but I also know that I wouldn't trust reloads that I didnt roll myself so if you are interested at all in pulling these for components I will throw them in. Asking $35 each for the unopened boxes. Asking $15 for the open box containing 28 Buyer to pay shipping unless we meet up in Tucson or occasionally Phoenix area. Pics can be sent via text if you pm me a cell#

These are from an estate of a family member so I don't have any history on them. All I know is that he did own and shoot a firearm in 45 win mag but sold it due to scarcity of parts. This is what remains. 491 fired cases 203 new cases plastic case containing 50 reloads? don't have the recipe but they appear to be 230 gr fmj Winchester box 20 230 gr fmj new ammo Winchester box containing 5 new rounds 230 fmj and 13 fired cases $100 takes it all We can meet up in Tucson or occasionally in Phoenix area.
