    As have darkness, snow storms, rock slides, mud slides, hurricanes, and tsunamis.

    But one does not find wise folks carrying them for self defense.

    I have some 9mm brass you're welcome to have. You'll need some abrasive media, though, they all have skirts on them.

    Tack,
    While 38 special is a weak round to some, there is a lot of case capacity...so a double or triple charge of powder is not out of the realm of possibility.....

    The merits of the caliber should be discussed in places other than the reloading section, as some may actually think that you have real knowledge in this area. It is better to be kept a bullshit free zone, as it is serious. There is enough areas of the forum for you to play in, that opinions wont cause any any damage other than hard feelings.
    This isn't one of them though.

    You did see the link that I sent you about someone loading pistol powder in a rifle case, he will be lucky to have use of his hand.

    1. I understand your point. I put a disclaimer on my post for the humor impaired.

    2. Thanks for the advice and the link. Only an idiot would not see that reloading can be dangerous.

    3. I'll "play" where I want.

    I'm loading 9mm with 115gr plated fp and sr 4756 4.9gr powder and it is not cycling in a glock 26.
    Is the top end of the scale 5.2 or higher? Or should I shorten the oal with flat point 9 mm below 1.07"? RIA 5" cycles fine
