I'm another one that has all the offerings Ruger offered in .327. For ME, the 327 is just fun. I would say that although factory ammo is generally available, this cartridge shines for a handloader....

I trim my brass. It surprised me how much the cases "grow". Quotes because most of my brass was used so I'm not sure it was EVER the correct length before it got to me. The reason I started...

I have that trimmer. When I put the brass case in the holder I don't snug it down until the cutter pilot centers the case. Then I tighten and trim. Works for me...

I have to admit that I am not an educated man, but I fail to see how lead can contaminate water? Lots of folks have no idea but there are THOUSANDS of miles of lead pipes that supply drinking water...

OH, and for two recliners expect to spend about 2K for something decent. 5K makes me smile... :)
I'm sure you are aware that some 9mm pistols have bullet preferences. Some like heavy, some like lighter. Maybe try some 147 grain rounds and see if there is any change? That's if you haven't yet...
I dislike red dots on pistols. Just me being honest. But, since I am being honest, I will say they generally work better than iron sights in terms of accuracy, speed, and calling shots. Speed and...

Ya, milled receiver and pinned barrel doesn't seem to make sense...???

Straight wall pistol size dies do not have an expander on any of the dies I have... All they do is compress the OD back to "spec".
I thought it might be a "fairly" large quantity. :)

Stupid suggestion most likely, but do remember to measure AFTER sizing...
I want say that if you don't understand even the basic nomenclature and mechanical workings of something, you may want to seek the help of someone who does.

Having reamed some cylinders myself, I'd love my own Sunnen Hone. Kind of overkill for this kind of work, but certainly makes it easy if you do it for a living. :)

I know power outages were a thought when I got mine too. Because of where I live power outages can last a good while from time to time. Anything less than 6-8 hours and I just ignore it. After...

In 2012 I bought the cheapest pellet stove I could find with a larger hopper. I got a US Stove that holds almost 150 pounds. I have had to replace one blower motor, 3 igniters, an auger pin, and a...
Well now, I think you may be 100% correct. I feel like the chump that has just been stumped... :)
You may be able to increase the protrusion of the firing pin by removing material from the hammer "nose". This allows the portion of the hammer that actually contacts the transfer bar to move it...

I've been pretty fortunate, never HAD to change a battery. Current vehicle is a 2013 F150 with the original battery. The spare, a 2008 Focus, also has the factory original. Before that, 1994...

I have probably 85% of my reloading gear is Lee with the exception of presses. I don't have much bad to say about Lee products at all. Glad to have them!
The smaller Beretta's are a weakness for me. I love the model 70's and have several of each model. The 1934 is still a quality handgun, though as mentioned already, the safety isn't ideal. The...
