I am trying to decide which trimmer to get and have narrowed it down to the Frankford Arsenal Universal Precision Case Trimmer and the Lyman Brass Smith Case Trim Xpress Case Trimmer. To those who have experience with both units which one do you prefer? Accurate and consistent cut lengths are...

I just received a rifle set up for benchrest shooting. It has a 25" Lilja barrel with a 1-12" twist, McMillan benchrest stock & a Jewell trigger. I plan to shoot Sierra 155 MK bullets. I have narrowed the powder choice down to the following: Varget, Reloder 15 & H4895. Is there one of these...

I have a LOT of brass to sort (rifle and handgun brass are separated though) and need a sorter. After looking at numerous You Tube videos I have narrowed down my choices to the Shell Sorter 3-tray set and the Berry's brass sorter rotary-type device. Both look like they will do a good job but I...

When I needed a light to check the powder level in the cartridge case on my Dillon 550 I made a fixture to hold a small LED light. It directed the light right where I wanted it. Then I noticed a firearm forum posting about the KMS Squared UFO 550 Reloading Press Light. It looked like a much...

When I clean brass I start by depriming and soaking it in a Lemishine solution then drying it. The brass then gets lubed and resized. When I spray the lube on the cases I try to get a very little in the case neck to aid the expander ball. Removing the lube before I do other stuff to the brass is...

I been looking at a few turret presses and really like the Redding T-7. But at $300 it seems a bit high. Looked closely at the Lee Classic Turret Press and was impressed with what I saw on You Tube videos. Was also impressed with the price. I like the cast iron base and the steel stands and...

I have numerous sizing and seating dies that I would like to have mounted on a press and they would not be removed once adjusted. I like the Redding T-7 press but not their high price. Buying additional turrets would makes this even more expensive. From all the reviews I've read this looks like...

Just started to use Lemishine prior to putting my brass into a tumbler with walnut shells. Lemishine works great to get the brass shiny prior to the tumbler. Just wondering. How much Lemishine do you use in, say, a half gallon of water? Do you use this solution more than once? Some people...

Have a 26" bbl AR used primarily for coyote and PD hunting. Max range probably 500-600 yds. I have narrowed my choice of a scope to the following: Nikon M-223 4-16x42 with BDC 600 reticle OR Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50 with Dead Hold BDC and 30mm tube. Would the extra power with the Vortex...

Have been going to the Post Falls, ID Cabela's looking for reloading powder and they have not received any powder for about 3-4 weeks. Heard other customers at the store blaming the gov't for buying up a lot of the powder. Others say that people are hoarding it. But how can they hoard it if they...

I'm looking for a small gun vault to store my CCW gun while I'm in the house (the gun goes with me when I leave). Been thinking about the Stack On Mini Storage Vault. It gets pretty good reviews from Cabela's and Amazon customers. Does anyone have any experience with this vault or can...

I have a PACT digital powder dispenser and scale that is about 8-10 yrs old. I guess you can send in those units to PACT to have it upgraded to the new high speed configuration for $75. Has anyone had this modification, and if so, was there an improvement? Thanks

My Redding BR-30 powder measure can hold thrown loads to 1/10 of a grain. Same for my older Saeco measure. Surprisingly, my Dillon 550 measure can also hold a tenth of a grain variance. All are with ball powders. Just wondering how accurate and consistent the other powder measures from RCBS...

I have several recently found die sets that have light rust on them. No pitting yet. I am thinking about putting them in my tumbler until the rust is gone. Does anyone else have any other ideas? Thanks
