All I smell is gun powder and a lot of it. One shot fills a three car garage. I’ll have to finish the rest at the range. I tried rolling on of my wife’s brand new beach towels over the muzzle so I...

I’ve played around with TSS quite a bit. Got a great deal on 70# for $15/lb. That’s the only reason I’m in the TSS game. Just my opinions:

They’re mainly designed as an alternative to the Russian Azot wads I’ve got quite a few of them including the glow in that dark wads. I wish the obturator of the wad was made to fit BPGS GAS SEALS to...

What’s you MEC doing? Had trouble with mine, but it was because I wasn’t familiar with it....

I have a 9000 and a Dillion. Haven’t loaded a shell on my Dillion in 4-5 years. Can’t get the primer longshot to feed. The tray gets stuck.

My 9000 has never missed a beat.

After about three years of searching, I found a Siamese Mauser converted to 45-70. Shoots like a dream at 100 yards with my reloads (jacketed bullets). Problem is, the chamber is a little oversized...
