    Remember that they should still be sized correctly after powder or your results will be tainted.

    does powder coating slow big bore ammo down

    I've been running powder coated subsonic 30 and 35 cal bullets in powder burners for years. The bore stays remarkably clean, velocity I never did a side by side comparison. The bullets still engrave fine and the rifling is only there to cause enough grip to impart spin. Glock and fx have...

    Presslug support and discussions

    Yeah, I don’t know what's going on with Presslug and the larger dies, and even with the .2173 they had listed that was never available, that's borderline for most. One guy here had to powder coat his to shoot well but hasn't posted anything for a while. It's a shame you need to invest more and...

    Again I tried to powder coat my Mk 1 stubby, same bad results I got from a few months ago. All the other guns like my S&W 78 & 79 came out very nice. So I think it has too much porosity and oil is impregnated on it. Decided to just polish this for now until I can gain access to a large...
