I picked up a bunch of reloading equipment from a guy I work with a few months back. I really didnt need any of it so i was just going to try to flip it. Well, i changed my mind. It wasnt in bad shape, but it was all pretty old and worn out looking. The press is a RCBS JR2 from the late 60's...

Recently broke the decapping pin on my .223 die. Sent RCBS an email saying i bent it, and asked how to get a new one (or two)... They replied saying they'd ship one out for me for FREE. Couple days later it showed up..... Except this is what I got. 5 Decapping pins, along with a...

I currently load .223 for my ar's, but just picked up a ruger american in 223. I load x-treme 55gr with imr4895 powder for my 1 in 9 twist. The ruger is 1 in 8 and i plan on shooting longer distances eventually. Would anyone be able to suggest a source for heavier 223 bullets, and what weight...

I'm looking at purchasing an AR-10 in the next few weeks. I have no purpose for one, just another gun to add to the collection just to "have". I may use it for hunting at some point, but am not buying it with the intention to hunt. More so just a plinking toy. I just started researching...

So somehow i lost the little thumbscrew on my lee pro auto-disk that holds the hopper on. I assume it fell in the trash under my bench, or my daughter ran off with it, but either way i need a replacement. Checked the local hardware store and they couldnt seem to find anything that would work...

I saw Xtreme was running a special for free shipping this month on orders over $150. I didn't really need $150 of bullets. I purchased 500 each of 9mm, 45, and 223. Order was right around $125. Went to order and noticed a option for free shipping. Bonus #1. Got them yesterday and there was 3...

I have a lee powder check die on my rcbs pro 2000. It works great, but only if I look at it every time. I don't have any issues with that, but would prefer something fool proof. Right now I have a switch rigged up above the die, so that when the rod is pushed up by the powder, it activates a...

Currently I load for a variety of different calibers, all of which i only own 1 gun in each caliber. I just recently built an AR for my wife to go along with my AR. My dad also wants me to reload 9mm for his gun (to which i told him he pays for components, he can come over and ill help him...

Just finished an early wedding gift for the fiancee, and took it out shooting this weekend. Its an ar15 in 5.56. Spent a good deal of time breaking it it while sighting it in, and had no issues (other than somehow i managed to put the hammer spring on backwards. Figured that out on the...

Loaded up some rounds for my ruger sr1911 the other day, and decided to take them out shooting today. Weather was cold but it was at least sunny. Mainly went out to sight in my buddies rem 700 and put some rounds through my ar15's. Was shooting at an 8" circle steel target at 100 yards with the...

Does anyone sell any bullets for a 7.62x54? I slugged my barrel at .314, so ive been trying to find bullets for it and come up with nothing... Lots of people carry them, just dont have any in stock. Only ones i found were $29/100, but another $20 to ship them. No thanks... Can anyone point...

I just started loading for 45 acp and haven't found my "go-to" load yet. Curious what you guys think would be the best powder out of what I have available. I've got a lot of green dot and power pistol, but not near as much red dot or unique. 230 gr plated round nose (berry's and...

Finally have a little extra cash and I decided its time to sell my turret and get a 650. I'm just not 100% sure what I need for changing calibers. I see that you can get caliber conversion kits for $75ish. Is that dies, toolhesd, and shell plate? I'm just trying to figure out whether to sell...

Not really though. Maybe sway my decision... I've been interested in a 1911 for a while, and with taxes coming I'll have a few extra bucks so nows the time to buy it. I'm pretty set on a Ruger Sr1911. I can get one for just under 7 bills. Anything in this price range that would be better than...

Not sure where to post this but I guess I'll just put it here. I have a car with thousands of dollars of electronics in it and woke up today from a bad dream where there was a group of 8 or 9 people cleaning it out. I ran out with my ar pistol and held them at gun point. Obviously it was a far...

I've got a mosin nagant with an ATI stock. I've got it bedded and free floated but the "free" scope that came with the stock is garbage. Not to mention it is about a 2 foot eye relief due to being mounted so far forward on the gun. I've decided to mount the ATI reciever mount on it but will need...

Well, Im finished with my latest project, so its time to start a new one. Im not too familiar with rifles, i more of a pistol kind of guy. Heres what im aiming to get... *500 yard standard shooting distance (possibly a little farther, but dont really have anywhere to shoot more than 500)...

My dad used to reload when i was real little, but never got into it too much and sold what he had years ago. When i started reloading he suggested i load for his and my moms rifles. I dont really have a problem doing that, but i would rather he load his own. He has a 270, and my mom has a 7mm...

Right now i have a RCBS Turret press. I reload for 9mm, 38/357, 223, and eventually will be for 45. I really enjoy this press, but its not as fast as i would like. Not that speed is everything, but i have back problems and anything over about an hour of reloading, and i am in pain. I dont...

In the process of building an ar 15 pistol chambered in 5.56. Just wondered if anyone loads specifically for ar 15 pistols, and can recommend a good powder load for it. Right now i load my 16" with 55gr fmj and imr 4895 and it works great, but im afraid it may not be as well suited for the...
