Besides one shot etc.Give your opinion on the following.. Carb cleaner? Brake cleaner? Or is there any other suggestions? Thanks B_R

I was doing some reading And came across the 17 hornet. I reload for my 223, but with the recent shortages of stuff I thought it might be nice to have a rifle in a different caliber. I like shooting my 17MR, but I hate that I can't reload for it. Hornaday shows on their website that the 17...

Ok I know about the shortages and panic buying etc...I can find lots of sites offering .223 and .308 brass is there a supply source for once fired .380? If not who usually is the goto for pistol brass..

So one of my new goodies I got recently is a headspace gage. Now I can measure to my cases correctly. I checked out Tresmon's post and my gage doesn't sit back as deep as his. As you can see in the image below. Here is Tres's Now I am not sure what he is measuring but it looks to be...

I just got my setup and right now I have my Rock Chucker and Partner press mounted up on a 2x6 that I clamp to my table ( See pic Below). I want to mount the Ap press beside them on a new "arm" that will come off the right hand side of the table and be bolted to the wall and have a 6x6 leg at...

I saw on here in a post to use brake cleaner... Is there anything that works better on dies and what shouldn't be used on dies. I know nothing abrasive. How often do you clean your dies? Does sizing wax build up in the dies till it will actually change the dimension of the die? Cheers, B_R

More fps with slower powder than normal pistol loads? Better accuracy at 50 yrds? That is my question. I want to load some thing more built for my Keltec sub2000. Anyone load for a carbine or have quickload to see what it might do... Thanks B_R

I have $150 left to spend on my reloading setup. I have found a couple on Midway on sale. How important should they be in a reloading system? I am loading for distance, not 100 yard groups. Will 150 get me something serviceable? Thanks for the advice. Reloading .308, .223, and 9mm for now.

Anyone shoot these and can tell me what kind of barrel twist they like? and what kind of damage do they do? could you use this for hunting? I am new to trying to learn what different bullets do.. I know some bullets like the triple shock don't look like much then when they hit something look...

So after loading up my first 100 rounds of 223 and watching my mom empty those 100 cases in a matter of mins... I am thinking I need a little quicker way to load/dispense powder then the rcbs balance beam scale I am using right now. Sinclair's has the Charge Master on sale right now for 299.00...

This weekend I loaded up some .308 165 smk with 42 gr of wc846. Using blc2 data 42 gr is middle of the road. I used a complied data book that has speer, sierra, hornady and 4 or 5 more books worth of data on .308 to come to that conclusion.. I loaded 10 but only sent 4 down the tube. On three...

I have a Savage FP10 in .308 18 or 20" barrel.. I was running some factory win ammo through it last weekend for the brass (It was cheaper to buy loaded ammo then it was to buy virgin brass, so why not have some fun getting to the brass). I was using a fixed 6-8" adjustable bipod. I was sighting...

Good Morning, I was looking to load up some plinking rounds for my wife's ar this weekend. I am going to be using some varget powder, I have the hornady reloading book 7th edtion to get my powder rates from. I am mainly looking for info on case size and oal of the loaded round. Is that as...

I picked up some surplus 5.56 bullets today at the gun show. I started doing some searches to find out what the armed forces load behind these puppies and it listed 24.7gr to 26.1 of WC 844 behind them. I was looking in my Hornady book and it doesn't make a reference to this powder. Is there a...

Right now I have the pretty standard front post/flip up back sight on my wife's AR. On our farm, the small rear aperture sight able to go out to 600yrds is a hindrance trying to make a fast target acquisition. Also my dad wears glasses and he has problems finding the front sight through the...

First off I did do a forum search and couldn't find a recent post on this subject. My Wife and my Mom both got Ar's for Christmas and I am looking to get some mags for both of them. I know one lower is a CMMG. Since these are the first AR's to be owned in the family I am cutting my teeth on...

My dad had picked up a bulk pack of reloaded rounds from the store to run through the fal we have. He also thought it would be a good idea to shoot it out of his savage fp10. Well the spent case wouldn't come out under normal working of the bolt. I had to hit the bolt handle with the palm of my...

I was reading the "dot drill" post and there was a suggestion if you are running a lower power scope to make your poi either 6 o'clock or 12 o'clock of center of cross-hairs. I have a 22 lr bull barrel pistol that has a "pumkin on a post" sight system that is pretty easy to hit what you are...

I have some black diamond blast media I picked up for my blasting kit for when I weld. Would this eat my RCBS vibrating case cleaner? What about using ss media in a vibrating case cleaner? I have been looking at the ss media thread I might have to go track down my old rock thumbling kit...
