Congratulations new Jedi Gunfighters!

I have been using Armanov 100 round case gauges/flipper trays in a couple of calibers for several years and it's a great tool, precision crafted and very well finished, however they are made outside of the US in Slovenia. If I had a choice today I would buy the one @Scarlett sells. Supporting our community is important and @Scarlett certainly does her part. Checking 100 rounds at a time is a huge time saver! I am in line for the 50 rd .32 block! I don't see it on her website yet. @Scarlett please put me down for one, I'll catch up with you to get one. I picked up a pair of nice cowboy Single Six 32's for my Dad and the 32 case gauge/flipper tray will save me some time on the reloading bench.

I have had very good success with APP and have used it exclusively since 2022 as a BP substitute for pistol/rifle and shotgun loads. The qualities I like are easy cleanup, VERY good smoke, can used coated (Hi-TeK) bullets, and consistent results on the range. While I shoot 38's I have also used it for 45 CS/LC. I purchase both APP 3F and Hi-Tek bullets from @Scarlett Bullets by Scarlet. I buy APP in bulk from @Scarlett to save a few bucks. If you were close I would give you a pound to try out. A lot of good load info posted here, PM if you want to chat about loading, cleaning, and purchasing. Good luck Pard!

Excellent! Looking forward to hosting you all and picking up a new shirt or two !

Congratulations to Dog Meat Dad, Doc Allen Wood, Happy Valley Harlot, and Soaring Chicken! You all deserve the recognition and accolades of becoming Jedi Gunfighters, it's always a pleasure to shoot with you. Hope you all can make to VA State this fall!

That is a mystery for sure. I have been wet tumbling brass for a long time with SS pins, precisely measured couple of drops of Dawn dishwasher detergent, and a 380 case of Lemi Shine, never had a load come out all gunky. I do de-prime before I wet tumble the brass, just because it's the way I prefer to do it. Do you think that double load of pins is jamming up the load and it's not actually mixing and tumbling when running? My standard run is a gallon bucket of 38 brass, pins, water, Dawn/Lemi Shine, tumble for 3 hrs. Let us know what you discover.

Another plug for Shotgun Boogie firing pins.

As others have said, coated bullets such as those coated with Hi-Tek can be used with APP with no lube.

Honor and respect to the new Colonel.

Congratulations on your first clean match! Sounds like you are having a lot of fun, keep at it.

I agree, amazing photography! Perry Weinberg, Old Man Winter, is one very talented artist. He really captures the essence of shooting, and when your shooting BP it makes the photo just that much better, although I may be a bit biased. @Scarlett, thanks for being a great posse leader. I enjoyed the match and hanging out with Tommy, the ice cream was a real treat, thank you. See you both at VA State.

Prayers for a complete recovery.

I have EagleGrips.com Kirinite Reactiv Gunfighter grips on 2 pairs of Ruger NMV and I do like them. The reactive checkering offers very good grip traction without being sharp or uncomfortable, even over 10 stages in one day. The checkering is machined into the surface, so the machined squares are smooth on top and it's the edges that give you the grip. The summers here in VA are hot and humid and keeping a good grip can be a challenge, the Reactive grips give me the traction I need. The grips fit the Ruger's well and I like the variety of colors EagleGrips offer. I went with the Black Pearl and the White Pearl, and so far the white pearl grips have not stained or discolored from shooting BP and over a year of cleaning. The only con is not having them on all my revolvers and 1911s.

What a blessing!
