newbie need powder

[FishHunter 0]

Have a Hornady LNL on the way, can not find powder. Plan is for Accurate no.2 or HP38 or W231 for 9mm, 40 SW and 45 USPSA and steel loads.

If anyone has some I can buy, or perhaps go in on buy to help reduce costs.

Will also need bullets and primers. Midway has the primers.

I was at Sarco in Easton yesterday and they had a variety of powders on the shelf. You might try giving them a call and see if they have what you need. If it's too far for you (I'm on mobile so can't see your location) let me know by tomorrow and I can pick it up for you if you can get to Burlington on Tuesday/Weds or Gloucester City (Camden) on Thursday...yes, that's my work schedule this week.

I passed by Solomon's but can never catch him open.

Home is Freehold so PA is a bit of a trip but I may have no choice.

Thank you for the offer Magnawing, If you can get any of the powders I listed in largest size they have, will be grateful to meet you Tuesday in the am. Can also do Camden on Thursday AM. Will pm my cell to you.

 

Hard to believe pistol powder is so rare these days.

See Alex @ Ibejiheads.com for bullets. He's a regular shooter at CJ & OB matches. Great prices, quality bullets and an awesome guy to deal with.

I can help with a small supply of bullets (Extreme 124 GR RN) and an equal supply of primers and cleaned brass if you need it.  I've got no powder left and only 1,000 bullets and primers on hand, but I'll hook you up with some so that you can at least experiment with your new press.  

 

Others have helped me in the past with these supplies and so I'm happy to help and pay it forward.  

[FishHunter 0]

Thank you.  WHen and where can we meet. I am free tomorrow.

Talk to njreloader on this site or xtremebullets.

They are priced right and are good to go.

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

NJ Reloader is the best, but I haven't seen anything about a 2014 group order yet.  I'm pretty sure he doesn't have any 9 left from last years order.

I've been receiving emails directly from xtreme and they have stuff in stock.

 

I was in touch with Alex once before for the lead heads.  Nice guy and his product is reported to be excellent.

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

I'm in Middletown, but lets wait until your press arrives and get together then.  You may find supplies in the meantime but if you don't I promise to hook you up with a supply to get you started.  

 

Do you have a tumbler?  If not I strongly recommend reaching out to heavyop for one of his machines.  

[FishHunter 0]

Thanks for the Solomon's hours.

Will be ordering Xtreme plated, like the harder alloy and they cost the same. PD JHP is close in price but I have to order at least 4000 to get the price. May be worth it since I doubt pricess will decrease in the future.

[Kingsoverqueens 10]

You'll be happy with the Xtreme.  Those are what I would have provided.  (124RN)

[Heavyopp 167]

For us in NJ Ibeji is the best deal going -- quality product and great service --  pick up at a match or his facility and save the shipping costs

 I do have materials for 1 more

I am getting a vibratory bowl unit. Wet produces nicer looking results but more handling.

If I was doing rifle, I would go wet tumble.

[carl_g 568]

Wet tumbling is where it's at!

[Krdshrk 3,877]

I overbought from NJReloader for 9mm 124gr... I could be convinced to let some go

Thank you but I already placed an order for 147gr Xtremes

[FishHunter 0]

Finally mounted the press and installed the dies. Have not run any powder through it yet. Just tweaking the dies.

Got my hands on a few pounds of Bullseye and a SR 7625 [thanks to a fellow OBRPC member].

Set the powder through expander to barely flare the mouth, to minimize stress on the brass. Should also minimize crimp requirements.

I got the seating die set up with barely any crimp - seems to hold well.

Funnel on case feeder is cracked - Hornady is replacing without question.

Will start with 9mm, Xtreme 147gr plated. Hand feed cases and heads until I confirm consistent results.

If someone has a a Chrono, I would appreciate using it to confirm my work.

[Polak 3]

I just received my powder today. Eight lbs of green dot. Assembled/degreased my press.

 

I have around 850 pieces of tumbled brass (45ACP).

500 bullets (230gr. TMJ) with 600 more coming from hornady's promotion (45ACP).

4,000 Winchester LP primers.

 

Now all I need is a workbench and to set up the dies and I'll be good to go.

 

Can't wait to see the results.

 

Anyone have a "recipe" for green dot and 45acp?

[T Bill 649]

200 LSWC 4.7gr Green Dot WLP  OAL 1.245 

 

YMMV

[Polak 3]

200 LSWC 4.7gr Green Dot WLP OAL 1.245

 

YMMV

I have 230gr TMJs and whatever hornady will send me eventually.

 

Thanks

 

Will this work with my parts? I'm seeing 4.9gr to 5.3gr is the standard for Green Dot and 45 ACP.

 

 

Caliber...Bullet Case .................Minimum OAL Primer... Powder.. Charge Weight(grains) Velocity

45 Auto 230 gr Speer LRN Speer 1.27...........   CCI 300 Green Dot.......... 5.3.................... 842

 

 

I guess I'll start around 4.9gr and work up if need be.

[bry@n 195]

Don't think NJ reloader is doing a group buy this year. Best to contact Jon directly.
