    "Short" Ammo Cans?

    I didn't consider ammo cans when I built my reloading bench storage. The center shelf is 7 1/8in at best. I see most 30cal ammo cans are 7.1-7.25in tall. Anyone know is cans that come in shortest? Thanks!

    Dipping Toe Into Hunting

    I've been on the fence about taking up a little hunting and I think Christmas dinner has tipped me towards doing it. A friend gave me some backstraps and loins and they were a hit with the family. I only see myself taking maybe one hog and one deer a year. Is that relatively normal? I want...

    Reloading Cabinets/Bench Build

    223 Brass Processing Mistake

    Working on once fired LC brass. Wanted to experiment with trimming and letting the wet tumble process get rid of the Wilson Trimmer burrs...on about 150 of my 1000 pieces. Yes, stupid. Brass came out and has a little burr on the outside of the case mouth. It measures .001". The deburr and...

    Upgrading Canik TP9

    I got a Canik TP9 at a Friend's of the NRA banquet a few years back. I'm curious as to how to upgrade it so it can accept an optic. I'd like to eventually get in to action shooting for the fun of it. My focus is on Bullseye at the moment and finishing my three distinguished badges there. Is...

    Dillon 550 Case Feeder Measurements

    I'm considering a case feeder for my 550. Mainly reload 45 for bullseye, but do some 223 for service rifle occasionally. I have a shelf a bit behind my press. My worry is the case feeder needs that space. The back upright of the press is 11in from the shelf. The top of the shelf is 26in above...

    TAC Powder Temperature Sensativity

    After shooting the EIC Match at Perry, someone mentioned the TAC powder I'm using is very temperature sensitive. Is there someone who can calculate how much variance I might see at 600y? I'm shooting 77gr SMKs over 23.8gr of TAC. I'm just getting in to this, so if you don't mind showing your...
