reload

My dad is pretty stoked now that he has a red dot on his 357 mag and wants to take it deer hunting (he’s got the skills, no worries about a clean shot there) So I already make him .38spcl for plinking which drill 8” plates at 50 yards just using a turret press and knocking out plinker rounds...

I was perusing the shop in Grand Island NE formerly known as “Swedes” on Saturday. (It now also serves as Hornadys “outlet store”) They had this cool old Herters press in there.

Saw the new one today…pretty neat. Dunno if I’m a fan or not… Edit: that counter/display it’s mounted to is about chest height on me,& I’m about 6’. Just to put the size in perspective. It is still big however.

Hi all, I am having an issue with 308 Win headspace and I’d love to hear what you think might be the problem. Background: I have a Dillon650 that I’ve been using over a decade for various calibers and thousands of reloads later (mostly once fired mil brass), I’m having an issue with 308 which I...

I’m shopping for a wet tumbler. I’ve looked at Lyman, Hornady, another brand I don’t recall and the good ol FART… just curious if anyone has input on the subject. Wet tumbling will be a new undertaking, but I’m wanting that kind of clean. I like the looks and features of some, but the price tag...

I was getting some old cans ready to get scrapped the other day and saw a split case on the corner of my bench. Just wondering, anybody here save it to scrap out?

New here! Reaching out for help from some reloading experts. I have only been reloading for about 2 years. Just upgraded my press to a Dillon 750 with a bullet feeder. My issue is that I can’t seem to get it dialed in to get an appropriate OAL of my 9mm. Seems to be one of a few factors that...

I know there are different schools of thoughts on this and would very much appreciate you sharing yours. I intend to reload my hand loads that employed new brass the first go around, it’s the “once fired” that I got from Capitol Cartridge and the range retrieved brass that I’m not sure about...

I'm looking at a 25-06AI that I want to pick up, but haven't started reloading yet, and want some information on it. 1 what is there downside of using regular 25-06 ammo instead. Asking because I found a great deal on a large amount. 2 can you load rounds light as in 40-45gr of powder...

Looking for some good load data on the .50 AE. Bullet being used would be a 350 grain Sierra JHP. Everything else is to be determined pending information received. If there is a reloading book out there for the 50 specifically, I would be interested in buying that.

Hello guys & gals. So I'm just getting into reloading. I've got 2 manuals so far - Nosler & Hornady. In my Nosler book, it shows 'most accurate load' within the, like, 12 different powders they've tested. I love that they do this because it gives me a general place to start in regards to which...

I shoot USPSA and 3-gun matches religiously, and I’m looking to reload bulk 9mm and then add in .223 sometime in the future. I plan to deprime with a Frankford arsenal hand de primer, wet tumble with stainless pins, then load in the Dillion 550. I have access to everything I need to pour and...

Hello guys & gals, From what I understand, the thickness of the cases is what makes the pressure difference between .223 & 5.56. So my question is, excuse my ignorance, say I bought some .223, shot those rounds, then loaded to "5.56 specs"... Would that be a bad idea? Would that be too much...

Need any and all reload recipes for the .17 ackley round made from a necked down .218 Bee case I have every thing cut a good starting point any help will be appreciated, THANX A MILLION

I'm new to reloading, but i'd like to do a lot more practice with my actual defense rounds. As of now I've been using factory Winchester rangers (the old black tip), and I'd like to develop my own 9mm load (not picky on grain) that i can afford to practice with some as well as have plenty...

My grandfather passed away several years ago and my grandmother recently gave me a box with all of his reloading supplies that she found while cleaning the attic. The box contained the following: Chilled lead shot, 12ga wads, 20ga wads, .410 wads, 30-06 brass, 44mag brass, and a LARGE glass jar...

Hi everyone, so I just started reloading and after working some brass I tried to seat a few primers tonight. It was my first time, and honestly I think I made a mess of things... I’m using a Lee breach lock challenger and I was priming on the ram. I have once fired (by me) federal .223 brass and...

Thinking about using them for some plinking ammo in my .243. Anyone know whether these are good or not? If not what else do you guys recommend?

I am having issues getting rounds to chamber in a 270 WSM on a Rem 700 Things I have tried and what the results are so far I Used RCBS Dies and set the die down half turn to full turn down and check all measurements. I measured all areas of the brass and could not for the life get it to...

Hi all, Long time reloader for AR15s in .223 Rem and 300 BLK, but recently bought a T/C Compass in .308 Win over the holiday season because the price was just so low I couldn't help myself. I bough a new set of Lee Ultimate 4pc dies for .308. This set came with a full length die and a neck...
