    REDFIELD 4-12 x 40mm

    I received one the the new Redfield scopes (now a brand of Leupold & Stevens) for Christmas. It appears to be a no nonsense yet well made scope. My only disappointment is it did not come with lens caps/covers. One end takes a 40mm and the other a 46mm. I've checked Leupold's website along with...

    Is a Primer a Primer a Primer?

    Simple Question... Can a small rifle primer from one company be substituted for a small rifle primer from another company? Example: Winchester's WSR for CCI's 400 or vise versa? Thanks...:confused:

    I was researching another project when I came across this clever little item. Just wondering how well it might work for mounting various reloading tools on a bench? Does anyone already have such a method or set-up?

    +1 For Hornady Reloading Book

    When I first started reloading for my AR-15 I had a Lee Reloading manual and a Speer. I had an opportunity to pick up a new Hornady 7th edition on e-Bay which included a DVD (old VHS copied to DVD) and received it today. The thing I like about the Hornady was they actually did a small section...

    Lee's New Challenger System

    I saw this in a recent magazine ad. Looks like this will be a contender for someone just getting started as well as a nice little backup. I really like the "Hornady style" die locking system. The handle and ram looks alot beefier than the older model. The price ain't bad either. Also, I thought...

    Minimalist Reloading Bench

    I know there has been a thread on reloading benches but this “set-up” caught my eye. I’ve always been told that the best things in life are simple. Well, it doesn’t get much simpler than this. For those just starting out, this will certainly get you started. For those of us needing a...

    Speer Bullets and Lee Factory Crimp Die

    What is this groups take on the following statement: Speer recommends against using the Factory Crimp Die with their bullets due to the fact that a heavy crimp can deform the jacket and supposedly affect accuracy. Lee instructions echo that recommendation. Keep in mind, however, that...
