I have two Cabelas tumblers that are about 1 year old and a Frankfort thats about 10+ years old. Both have been bullet proof for me. This year I did over 2 tons of brass in these three units. For the money, I think the Cabelas tumbler is the best buy out there.

I recently purchased some brass off a guy. In the lot are some REM-UMC BEST No 12 brass shotgun shells. These shells do not use a shotgun primer, and are 2.5 inches long. What where they used for? When where they made? How much are they worth? I have a bunch of these empty brass cases...

Homemade Media Seperator I had it with dumping corn cob media all over the floor every time I emptied my tumbler. So today I was messing around in the workshop and came up with the idea of making a rotating cylinder that would fit over a Rubbermaid type plastic container. It was easy and cheap...

If you spill shot at least you'll know where it went.... Instead of having all over my loading room like I do.. :)

I must be doing something wrong. But I always had a hell of a time adjusting my RCBS Uniflow powder measure... The Hornady one on the L-N-L AP press rocks! Easy to adjust and very consistent charges. The RCBS Uniflow has been a PIA! I really don't use it much, I have it set for 223 and I'm...

I totally agree with what LuggerNut said about and will add: -Love the cost. -Hate the Documentation! It sucks at best. They need to make a video like Dillon does. That's a great idea!

PC Aka Plastic Cowboy, If you want good info on Blue check out Brian Enos web site, It is excellent! Search THR for Red info, and there is some (red) info in in Brian's non Dillon Forum... Good luck on your journey!

Anything in lead. What can I say, I'm cheap and they punch holes in paper just fine! They been shooting lead since the beginning of time why do we have to always complicate everything with designer bullets?

I just got a Hornady L-N-L AP for Xmas. I originally was sold on a 550B, when I added up the costs for a 550B with 5 caliber conversions and misc I was at almost $900. Ouch! I could not justify that in my case, and I don't care how hot the blue press babes are! :) My L-N-L from Midway with a...

"In my experience, casting makes sense if you have a lot of time to trade instead of buying bullets or you need something unusual. I don't cast anymore, I shoot too much and don't have the spare time. Instead of casting, I buy pistol bullets in bulk and on sale when possible. $40 for 1000...

I have the same issue on my L-N-L AP. .45ACP works with out an issue, 9mm will hang on an eject now and then but .30 carbine hangs about 50% of the time. I don't know if it's an issue with the smaller diameter cases? The angle the eject wire hits the case? Or what? My press is so new that I'm...

MarshallDodge, I originally was going to copy the Dillon setup. But 2 empty shotgun shells is simpler and it works great! Thanks for the info.....

Primer low alarm for progressive presses!! I recently purchased a Hornady L-N-L progressive press. I have been thinking of ways to come up with a low primer alarm system. I know RCBS and Dillon sell them but I figured it would be something easy to make. I have been using a piece of 1/8 inch...

I can get powder for around $16'ish out the door locally. The trick is to buy large amounts to get the cost down. I just got 25 lbs keg of solo 1000 from a guy that visits trap clues in the area, it was $255 + tax. Thats just over $10 per pound, I use solo 1000 for 12 gauge and am going to try...

I don't shoot competition, but I love 3.7 grs bullseye with a 185 LSWC. It shoots great out of my Springer, is mild and inexpensive. .45man that's one sweet spreadsheet!!!

I have a new one also. I have only loaded about 300 .45 acp and about 300 9mm through it. So far I am very pleased with this press!! I need to make some mods for it. I am going to made a homemade powder and primer low alarm. I am also thinking about some type of stand for brass and bullets, to...

9mm is running me around 2.50 per box. If I cast my own bullets its even cheaper but I don't have the time for that any more.

I got my press on Friday. I started setting it up late Friday night. It took me around 2 plus hours to setup. I cleaned powder measure real good, read all documentation, and I had to clean off my reloading bench to make room for it :). I started loading 45 ACP yesterday and I really like this...

A RCBS Rock Chucker is a very strong press, I am not sure if the Lee is of equal strength. I good friend that broke his Lee press in half loading 8mm, but I don’t know what Lee press it was. My Chucker that I got in 1980 and its still going strong. If you want to save some $$, get a Chucker and...
