I love my 686 too. My gun is a 6", How about yours? I put a pair of Ahrends grips on. They look really good, but I can't say they feel any better than the stock grips.

Yes, I tried it this week. I only reloaded 2.8 Gr and it felt perfect. I think it was a slight bit hotter, kind of snappier if you know what I mean. But it was really accurate and it felt good. Was shooting it in a 686

1911 and 45 for me too. Kinda like apple pie and vanilla ice cream. A perfect match

I'll take your advice and seat flush, as you said, like the HBWC. I just wonder since the bullet is not sealing as it is in the HBWC if I will have to work the load up. Will start at the 2.8 gr. and see. Thanks for getting back to me

I posted this in a different forum but I am hoping someone can help. I'm used to loading 2.8 Gr. bullseye with 148 Gr. HBWC for 38 SPL. Just got a good price for 148 GR DEWC. My question is can I stay with 2.8 GR, or should I work up a new load? Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum. It's great to have a shooting forum dedicated to NJ! I reload mostly pistol, 45 ACP, 38 SPL. Some 243 Win. I really enjoy reloading. It's not just about saving money, it's like another offshoot hobby of shooting. "but saving some bucks always helps too". I know what you mean tbtrout, The money you save you just reload and shoot more! I reload on a Dillon 550 and really like it

Thanks tbtrout. I took your advice and backorderd 1 case of primers each at powder valley' They said they expect Wolf primers "not my first choice" by mid April.

I'm down to about 750 45 ACP, and 500 38 SPL. Have tried Powder Valley, T&T, etc. No luck. Does anyone have any suggestions ? Thanks for the help.
