After 4 pages of posts, and a conversation that's gone beyond the topic, people still chime in about the original question. OP had the answer on Post #5. It seems that the holier than thou, high posting count crowd chimes in when they like, followed by those who never bothered to read the thread.
No response needed, as you both bore me. Regards, Ris |

Anyone that doesn't know how to setup a primer has no business reloading or touching guns. |

You prompted the unsupported chamber discussion by the inferrence that it had no bearing on "normal" loads. It certainly does, if that "normal" load is in a case fired a dozen times. If you are uncomfortable with your ignorance being educated, you may elect to push back from your keyboard and not make it evident to those that know better. Other people need to understand these things if they are going to reload safely. |

I have a bar sto on order. But considering wilson combat instead. Do you have experience with either?

kinda sounds like maybe just using them 5 times is good? lots of things spoken of, but i was just wonderin what the final verdict was...is it wall thickness or somethin?

But I decided to nip it in the bud and just get a bar sto bar match barrel. That way I can shoot until the brass cracks if I want. |
[QUOTE=bigcountry;3600554]Bottom line is, you have an unsupported part of the case. Thats means, load at your own risk. i load starting loads with my G21 and use +P starline brass. For months, I took notes with a micrometer measuring any expansion. I am sure I could go more.

As bigcountry said, it's at your own risk. I load down away from max pressure, closer to minimum loads, and toss them after what is a very small number of loadings for straight-wall pistol brass. I don't shoot reloads for self-defense, which is the only time I need full power ammo, and the POI is close enough. So no need to worry about it to me as I get enough free brass. |
