  1. No HazMat necessary for loaded ammo, only for powder and primers
  2. Have a friend that just bought an original 1886 in 40-65, but he needs some parts. Does anyone have a good source? Thanks
  3. 400 pieces of 40 S&W brass. Polished and most is once fired. $12.00 plus shipping
  4. I really don't know for sure. I haven't loaded it so I would guess it hasn't been loaded much.
  5. 300 pieces of 380ACP brass. All brass,, no nickel, polished. 300 for $10 plus shipping Have 600 pieces left
  6. 400 pieces of 38 special brass. All brass,, no nickel, polished. 400 for $16 plus shipping
  7. 500 pieces of 9mm brass. All brass,, polished. 500 for $25 plus shipping. Have 11,500 pieces
  8. The 577/.450 Martini Henry was a 45 caliber rifle using .455 bullets. .577 bullets would not work
  9. Read in a book about Remington Arms that an order of 10,000 rounds of 45-70 black powder headed for Russia sank right out of port. They spent 6 months in salt water before the ammo could be recovered. All 10,000 went off like it was suppose to.
  10. Exactly, load/gun combo problem, with the problem being the light bullet weight. The only thing that is changed is the bullet weight, rest of the load is the same, including the diameter. Same powder, powder charge and primer produce excellent groups with the 125 and 158 bullets. In 50 years of reloading, this tells me that there is something about the 105 gr. bullet that my guns don't like, so I don't use them. The only reason I mentioned it to the OP is that not every revolver will shoot a certain type of bullet well, maybe try a different bullet.
  11. Correct, my handguns are very inaccurate with 105's. Five inch 5 shot groups at 15 yds. With 125 or 158 they will shoot 1 1/4 inch 5 shot groups. Rifle shoots 105's with no problems
  12. May be the 105 grain bullets. My USFA's will not shoot those light 105 gr. bullets. The lightest they'll shoot well is 125 gr.
