Shot some 500gn Hornady SP bullets yesterday and while packing up to leave the range noticed many copper jacket fragments withing about 2-5 feet of the firing line and one on the bench. I am sure these were not here when I started shooting because I scrounged the range for brass and saw nothing...

Just sorting through some "once fired" brass I bought online. About 10% of the lot is either 1953 or 1954 production TW headstamp brass. While these are some of the nicest looking in the bunch, just wanted to make sure there was no collectibility associated with over half a century old...

I just decided to load up some shotshell loads for my 1895 Nagant revolver. This is my first attempt at loading shotshells for pistol use and would like any feedback you think may help. I used once fired PPU 7.62x38R brass. Loaded 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 gn of Bullseye, 1/16" cardboard over powder...

Throughout my reloading years, I have found a few inverted primers in my cases. I have always found them upon my final inspection, but was wondering what would happen if an inverted primer were to be fired?

Whenever I come back from the range, I inevitably have brass that buries itself deep in my pockets and manages to evade my brass bucket. I have always noticed that after a wash/dry cycle of my clothes this brass is always spotless and shiny. On a hunch, I gathered up all of the most horrid...

Just got back from the range, about 2 50 cal. ammo cans of brass heavier than I went with. Apparently the pickup your brass rules at our range do not apply to law enforcement when they are doing their required monthly training. About 10 minutes of scrounging, and I found over 2k rounds of...

Everyone always raves about Dillon and RCBS's customer service, but you rarely hear anything about Lee. The carbide sizing ring for my Lee 500 S&W sizing die cracked after a few hundred round. Called Lee, they said to send it in for repair/replacement. When I got back from the post office...

I recently changed my homeowners insurance company; the new company has requested to do a walk through of the house. Has anyone else ever had any problems with reloading equipment and components causing problems for your insurance company? I really don't want to have to disassemble my entire...

I have worked up all of my current loads using CCI500 small pistol primers. I am currently thinking about switching to either Wolf of Tula primers for my plinking loads to save on reloading cost. My question is, should I rework my load data? All of my plinking loads are on the light side...

Does anyone have any info on a scale, preferably electric, that is actually reliable for a decent price? I have tried many of the small pocket-sized digital scales and find there can be as much as a .4gn difference between the same powder charge when weighed only a few minutes apart. I...

Just got back from the range after shooting my first handloads....and also my chronograph...... I was having trouble finding load data on a 170gn lead cast bullet (missouri bullet company) using bullseye powder. I decided to use Lee's suggested data for a 180gn lead cast bullet and work up...
