What was the 1st Firarm you purchased.
A Remmington 870 Wingmaster bought in 1982. I still have this gun, it shoots and looks excellent. I think it was a little over 200 beans back then.

How much do you reload at a time?
I'm also using a RCBS single stage press so I normally do 50 - 100 at a time. My cases are expanded and primed ready to go. I keep about 500 cases ready to go.

My equipment arrives today. Need pointers.
One of the things I like to do is use 2 scales. I normally use the beam scale, but I also have a digital. I use 2 just for a check against each other - just a safety measure. Once I get the charge set, I'll weight 10 to make sure it's close. Another thing - don't let anyone bother you while you reload. It's easy to make a mistake if you're distracted.

Reloading supply Stores In NJ
Has anyone been to Action Shooter's Supply in Haledon or know how well stocked they are?
-
new to me..
Very nice gun. Is it a 4" barrel? How does it shoot with .357 mags? I have a 6" GP100 and 357 mags are a beast to shoot. I shoot mostly .38 sp.

Where do you shop?
Bud's has great prices but their free shipping isn't always really free in the end, then with transfer they are usually just as high as Shore Shot for me who is also 3% sales tax. $50.00 transfer fee's in NJ sucks! +2 for Shore Shot. I got a couple of nice deals on Pistols there. Bullet Hole has had a nice selection lately and their prices are decent.

I have a 6" GP100 that I shoot 38sp. out all the time. So far my favorite recipe: 158gr Lead RNFP (S&S Casting) Hogdon Universal 4.2gr. Col: 1.419 I also use Ramshot True Blue and HP38, but I've been really digging the Universal Clays lately. This is very accurate. I have some S&S Casting 158gr. SWC that I'll be trying this weekend.

RELOADED .45 ACP
How do you like #2 in this round? I just loaded 150 rounds of 230 gr. FMJ .45ACP with 5.3 gr. of universal clays. It shoots great from my Springfield Trophy Match 1911.

Cleaning supplies.
I have been using Ballistol oil for cleaning the bores and Mil-comm TW25B sunthetic grease for greasing the slides and moving parts. The Ballistol cleans very well and leaves a protective coating when wiped off.
-
Would you shoot this round?
It almost looks like a hole in the bottom of the case. Toss it.

Anybody have issues/suggestions about "Cabela's"?
It's an awesome store to visit. Lots of guns to check out. I buy some reloading supplies there, usually powder.
-
took the walk of shame tonight.
I've been to several places for handgun ammo and they always check my FID and record the sale in a book. It is NJ law. The only time they haven't asked for ID is at the Bullet Hole when purchasing to shoot on the range. I guess you're not actually leaving the store with it

15 round ak47 magazines?
Henderson Defense said they would ship there WASR 10's to NJ with 30 round mags in "kit" form. Maybe it's legal to buy 30 round mags in kit form and modify them to 10 or 15 rounds. I didn't ask them if they would sell mags seperately in kit form. They do ship a lot of WASR 10's to FFL's in Jersey. If you think about it, the mag isn't actually usable in kit form.

Ice cold coors light - not very original. Just the basic for Monday night football.

Nice shooting .38 Special load
This load shoots excellent in my GP100. 158gr Lead RNFP (S&S Casting) Hogdon Universal 4.2gr. Col: 1.419 Always start low and work your way up, but this groups real nice and is pleasant to shoot.

What does everyone do for a living?
Electrical engineering and computers. I work for a company that makes revenue collection equipment in transportation.

If you were to leave NJ
I've been in Arkensas - very cool place to live. Way different than around here, you actually feel like your free.

Does anyone carry in the home?
I have kids around the house so I usually keep a pistol within grabbing distance while sleeping. No one comes in the room while I'm sleeping.
