Same for me. I'm always interested in hearing about equipment feedback, good and bad.

Thanks for the feedback, KDF22. I use H110 for my 44, so I'm also good to go with the powder.

Nope, not going to cast my own.

I'm saving up for a 460 S&W handgun, and am researching projectiles for reloading. I need to account for these expenses in my budgetary planning Without having one yet to measure the cylinder throats, what diameter for cast/coated projectiles do most of you who reload for the 460SW use?

I tried it in my RARP 6.5CM under 140gr ELD-Ms in an attempt to duplicate the original factory loads. Worked pretty good, but soon found out that the rifle preferred Varget. :D

Yikes! Well I had been considering annealing for rifle, so now I have another reason to start!

:eek:

Turns out a local range has one for rent. I'll may try it out, but I'm pretty sure I will be OK. Went to the Bass Pro yesterday and held a 500SW to get a feel for the X-frame, and it felt great. I'm hooked. Now just gotta save up the pennies! And for me that means saving extra for all the...

I mostly punch holes in paper anymore, but someday I want to pig and der hunt with a handgun. I don't think they do, but I haven't been there since the great ammo shortage. I shoot at Bayou Rifles, and we do have a 1000 yd range at the Rosharon facility. I haven't qualified beyond 300yds, yet.

I figured the compensator would help mitigate some of the muzzle rise, but had not realized that it would mitigate the recoil to the degree y'all indicate. Again, good to know.

Already have, so now it's time to start participating and contributing where I can.
