    Powder ID?

    When I was back east, I picked up some reloading stuff from a buddy that quit reloading. One was this plastic container of powder. Light purple top. No label on the front, he couldn't remember what it was. Wondering if anyone can ID what it is....

    Lee Turret holder...

    I didn't want to have to change out dies from turrets when I go from one to another that I am working on... so I took some measurements and drew up and cut out (on my CNC router) this 'beta' lee turret stand. So I have a place to set all of them when not in use. Need to edit the drawing to...

    CT laws and reloading..

    So how does the CT law of requiring a license to 'buy ammo' effect those in CT that reload? Is it not specified at all, so they can keep buying what they need online and reloading their own stuff?

    .45 acp for 1911, cast 225gr

    I have been loading .223 and it's been working well. Time to start on some .45 acp for my 1911. I bought some 225 gr FP BB boolits, but I find that my (only one so far) lee manual doesn't list 225gr... 220 or 230gr. I guess I could see what each says and go in between... ? So just...

    Maryland House of Delegates...

    ... did they pull a fast one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xge789Mo-c0&feature=youtu.be Seems like they did. Not sure how you can vote on something, not like the outcome, pull people to the side to get them to change their vote, and just do the vote over. Interesting. To top it...

    safe way to 'fix' an 'error'...

    was loading some .223, on two of them I got distracted (or brain farted) and didn't do the stroke to seat the primer, but didn't realize it until after I finished those two rounds... So I have two that are loaded (imr 4198) and bullet seated and crimped... I set them aside in a little...

    First comp match...

    Have been looking for some sort of comp that would be fun. Checked out a local cowboy shoot, but that's just not for me. Today there was an IDPA match, so I headed out, and signed up. Was given the general rundown of how the matches go, safety brief and all that, and got to jump into it...

    My first reloads...

    5 rounds of .223. Hornady 50g GMX bullets. IMR 4198 (19.8g). Bullets look strange to me with that 'recess' in them, but ran out to the range to fire my first ever reloads. Love it. They worked great. Nothing big for a long time reloader, but being my first, it's quite an...

    Nagant... updating...

    Bought one of the ATI stocks for one of my Nagant's, fit like a glove... also a bipod. But when I took the rifle apart, I notice there are some small areas of surface rust on the bottom of the barrel. What is the best method to 'fix' this up? With the new stock some of it shows on the...

    order of 'prep'...

    Got my press today, I have loads of brass that I have tumbled in walnut shells just to get 'clean'. I set that aside. I'm wondering the steps others go through next. I was thinking deprime, then run in corn media to get the pockets cleaned out, then lube and size and prime at the same...

    Incorporate a different 'hobby' into reloading?

    Long ago I built a CNC router. Have used it on many projects in the past, most often it sits idle though. From carved boxes to wall hangings, to some custom grips for a friends Llama double stack, to model airplane stuff... mostly carved wood, a little plastic here and there. I've fiddled...

    Got my reloader! Opps, wrong one...

    Ordered the lee classic turret from FS Reloading. Been picking up other bit's I need while waiting on it. Was excited for today... the box came. Opened it up to see a Lee box in it... but it is labeled "Breech Lock Challenger Kit".. Uh.. not what I ordered. The Classic turret was 'in...

    1911 mags...

    Bought a Citadel 1911... only had it out a few times, and haven't had any problems with the mags, but I've read their mags are not the best... so which do people recommend? BTW, was hesitant on purchasing the 1911, but it's smooth and well behaved, real nice to shoot. I still prefer my...
