Help me decide! I'm a member of a hunt club that only allows straight wall rifle cartridges, including 300blk, for deer. I already reload 44mag, and the M77/44 is an expensive rifle. It's also a rifle I've always wanted! For half the price of the M77/44 I can get the Ruger American Ranch...

Let me start out by saying this is my first 1911 and my first Kimber. My neighbor bought this gun a few weeks ago and couldn't get it to cycle. I bought it from him for half what he paid for it, only 100 rounds through it. I cleaned it, bought 400 rounds of cheap Winchester white box 230g ball...

I just bought my first Glock after 42 years as a gun owner. Its a 20gen4. I've always been a Ruger Revolver guy. I thought I would change things up a bit. I purchased this pistol as a woods carry, possible short range deer gun. I'm a reloader and I know the stock Glock gen4 barrel is fine for...

I just bought this rifle, it's the new model 1894 (2017) This rifle is for pure pleasure. I plan on using the same plinking bullets as i use for my 10.5" SBH but I'm sure my handgun loads wont be the best for this carbine. Currently I use 2400 for the SBH, but im open for trying a different...

This will be my first Glock. I want a 10mm for deer and yes i have looked at the g40 and about every other 10mm currently availabe. I'm not a huge fan of Glock but i like this pistol and how it feels. I plan on rebarreling it with a Lonewolf and might go longer for hunting. I will be reloading...

I'm looking at a newer model Marlin 1894 44mag. I want to make sure its not one of the 2007-2013 production year models that had so many issues. This rifle has been on the rack at my local gunshop for a while and that worries me, these rifles dont sit around long around here. The price is good...

I'm new to this caliber and I'm struggling to find accuracy. My rifle will group tight but only after the barrel is hot. The first few rounds are all over the place. I have tried three powders so far, two ladder tests and one Ken Waters Pet load. My ladder tests were run with Varget and IMR...

I'm a Redfield/Leupold/Burris fan, most of my rifles have them with the exception of my .223 bolt gun, I have a Nikon on that. I had 3 Hawke 4-12x50 scopes that I bought at a close out when a local outdoor outfitter closed up. I never used them until recently I needed a scope on my newly...

I'm shopping for a 7mm-08 and its a new to me caliber. I'm set up to reload for it, I just got in my RCBS precision dies, I also have the LEE FCD and neck sizer die. I have about any kind of powder you all might recommend, no worries there. Whats a good projectile for this caliber? I prefer...

I have a terrible time with 30-30 brass. The current offerings just don't hold up for the price you pay for it. Range pick-ups are good for one or two reloads before the case heads split or the necks split on resize. I sent Starline a email begging them to make 30-30wcf for us old guys that...

This came up on another forum, maybe someone here knows the answer. I have two sets of older (circa late 70's, early 80's) RCBS .38/.357 die sets that I bought used. Both sets had spacers in the box. The spacers are for swapping to .357 from .38 without adjusting the die. Both spacers were .127...

I have two Pacific's, a C and a Super Deluxe. I like to use them but with no way to catch primers, I just didn't. I mentioned on another reloading forum that I was looking for a tray(one tray will fit all of the Pacific's) and a member there that does 3D printing volunteered to make one and as...

I just traded out for 500 of the 240g Bullet Miester SWC's. So I guess I will be loading them for my 10.5" Super Black Hawk. Can I load these to magnum levels or do I need to back the load down to ".44 special" I load cast for my .357mag and use gas checks, these bullets do not have gas...

I bought this die set used and cheap. The sizing/decapping die seems to be missing the carbide insert. It also has another sizing die marked #1 that doesn't have a decapping pin/ball sizer with it and the decapper pin/ball sizer from the first die I explained will not fit the other die. The...

This is for my bug-out reloading box. It has to be reliable, portable, tough. I hear the 10-10, some say the Lee Safety Scale. Customer service doesn't matter, if I need this scale there won't be any cell phones or CS.

I picked up a 1980 Rock Chucker for $60, its tight, just needs a good cleaning and I might blast it and paint it. Not sure what color is correct? Its not the new RCBS green. I also bought a Lyman Spartan (can't find a date code on it) for $20. Its in perfect condition. A good cleaning and its...

I picked one up for cheap this weekend, just for nostalgia. It came with a full set of .357/.38spcl dies, 30-30WCF dies and .308 dies. Its in need of a repaint but the darn thing is smooth! Not bad for $40! Downfall, it takes the old Lyman 310 5/8"x 30 TPI dies, and the "J" type shell...

Hornady is the best deal, but the Chargemaster is a good unit, then there is the Lyman? This will be used for load work-ups only, I use a LAD on my turrets for my established loads. Advice?

Okay, I'm getting a Pacific. Its coming to me on the cheap from my boss. Still new in the box. He wasn't sure which one it was because he has a bunch of them. It is for the 20g only. I know these are good presses but can I find parts for it? I will know Monday which press it is. Hoping for a...
