After moving nearly a year ago now, I'm finally ready to rebuild my reloading bench. This will be my fifth reloading bench build. I started with a single stage press mounted to a tiny particle board desk 20 years ago that moved with me to a few different houses in my younger years while in...

I moved to a new house earlier in the year, and I'm finally ready to put my bench together again (brass is starting to pile up). I'll be using 2x4s for the frame, bolted to the concrete wall behind it. The reloading surface will be two 3/4" MDF sheets stacked on top of each other. Any reason...

We're moving, and shopping around for new homeowners insurance, and coverage for my firearm collection (about $40k in value) is running between $700-1100 per year with $1000 deductible, depending on the carrier. A quick Google search found Gun and Trophy Insurance that is offering $48k...

Let's say you want to get to 1000 yards on a reasonable budget, say under $1000 (rifle only, not including optics and other accessories). I don't want this to be a caliber discussion, so let's say we've decided 100% definitely on the 6.5 CM. Which rifle would you buy? And why?

I recently bought a PSA AK-V that came with this folding brace: https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-ak-p-ak-v-triangle-side-folding-brace.html Upon first picking up the pistol, I loved everything about it except this brace. I mean, the brace looks really nice on the gun, both folded and...

Hello all, I'm having some trouble with loading the .300 BLK round. I'm new to reloading for the 300 blackout, but not new to reloading. I've been reloading for nearly 20 years. The 300 blackout is the first round in which I've ventured into case forming. And it is giving me a run for my money...

I did a quick search and didn't see this posted elsewhere. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1981953338672101?fs=e&s=cl Yikes! Great reason to always carry a sidearm while hunting. EDIT: Here's the YouTube version (without added gun sounds) https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6o4lcECsulQ Thanks...

I've been recently looking into getting into longer range shooting, and have been looking into sub-$500 scopes. Arken keeps popping up, with a seemingly rabid following, especially on YouTube... But it's painfully obvious that most (all?) of these YouTube reviews are paid advertisements from...

I reloaded some test rounds of 308, and at the range one got stuck in the chamber, requiring me to take it back home to my bench to get it unstuck. I stopped with the test firing and bought a Sheridan case gauge, which I just got in the mail. As I suspected, the case didn't fit in the case...

I've got a PSA AR10 18" 1/10 twist stainless barrel rifle. Obviously the only true way to know is to go out and shoot it... But for discussion's sake, how far out can this shoot accurately before parts need to start being upgraded. I'm talking hitting steel, not punching 1/4 MOA ragged holes in...

I'll be going on vacation with my RV in January to Florida. For three nights we're staying at a military RV park in Key West. It is on the base and federal property. They do not allow firearms on base, and they do not have any provisions for storing a personally owned firearm. That campground...

These are freshly converted .223 to .300 Blackout brass, mixed head stamps (though I did sort to ensure 'good' brass for .300 Blackout). After ruining a few cases getting the timing down, I settled on five seconds, as that was when I started to see the color change in the brass, and right before...

Last night I bought two 5 lb jugs of TAC powder from goldammo.org. Well, I tried to, I should say. After I hit "buy," it said "order complete," but never asked for credit card information. I then received a text from goldammo.org asking for a Zelle payment to a gmail account. Red flags went off...

Hello all, I'm going to be building my first AR 9 mm pistol. I've done several standard AR15 rifles/pistols, but this will be my first 9 mm. I bought a pistol kit off of Davidson that includes everything except a stripped lower. It is a Davidson Defense brand kit (first experience with this...

I'm gathering parts to put together an automated brass annealing machine similar to this (random picture found on the internet): The concept is fairly straightforward, and this doesn't look to be a very difficult build... But the thing I'm struggling with right now is how I'm going to cut the...

I've been using Hornady One Shot case lube for years and I'm very happy with it, especially for quickly lubing .223 cases on my progressive press. However, I had always used the regular spray bottle of it. I went to reorder some since I'm running low, and it appears they only make One Shot in...

I just ordered 4000 bulk 9 mm bullets for reloading last month from an, for now, unnamed online retailer. They reloaded and shot fine, so I went to buy 4000 more yesterday. I paid $280 for 4000 bullets. Now they only offer up to 1000 bullets at a time, and they're $85 (which would be $340 per...
