I'm looking to start hunting, and here in Wyoming, it's bear country, with most elk being in grizzly territory. I'm looking into a 460 s&w mag. Is that too big? Too much? Too hard to handle? Bear spray will obviously be a first countermeasure. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Why are the boxes for federal gold medal match primers so monstrous AND they have primers on their side? I bet they could get almost 1000 in the same box, making it double sided, and moving them all close together. Seems like a waste of space and plastic to me... Huge plastic box for 100 little...

So yesterday, I loaded 125 9mm loads, which were all developmental loads, and 175 loads of 6.5 creedmoor, 100 of which were developmental. After I finished, I set my scale to zero(rcbs 5-0-5) something I apparently don't do often enough... And the scale was sitting about 2 grains heavy! With...

So I have been digging around looking for my next, future elr big bore rifle (338 lapua or 375 cheytac) and stumbled upon these guys. They charge a very, shiny, gold plated pretty penny for their bullets! Their 6.5mm 143 grain target is a buck a pop! With only a g1 BC, that isn't fantastic...

am i the only one who thought a 380 acp was just a shortened(apparently by only 2 millimeters) 9mm luger because of the whole 9mm kurz/9mm short thing? come to find out, when i started reloading for 9x19, the does do not "fit" 380, 380 uses a different diameter bullet(only .001 different) and...

so ive been reloading match 6.5 creed for a while here now, and am looking into getting a 9mm pistol, and want to start working up loads now, so i can get the pistol, and go straight to the range. where im stuck at is bullet and powder combinations. the 6.5 creedmoor was easy. get the go to...

I bought a used rcbs powder measure, which I can only assume is the uniflow after looking at pictures. So I got a baffle for it, wanting to help even out loads, and I can't get the danged thing to stay "upright" After a while of fanageling I got it in this way But it's very unstable, and...

I recently got a uniflow powder measure, and almost every time I go to drop a charge, it binds, sometimes pretty good, other times I can barely feel it. Is this normal? Is it just "cutting"the powder to fit in the cylinder? Also, is there an attachment that makes dropping into a scale pan...

I found these flakes of powder that almost look like they've opened up like popcorn, and look like wood on the inside, but the outside looks normal. I've just only started seeing it You can see two that look like pieces of wood Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

So we just moved into a house, and here in Wyoming, swamp coolers are everywhere. My problem... I have 2 choices as to where to put my reloading/gun room. Our lawnmower/storage shed that's about 6x8, outside and not insulated. Yeah, that's not gonna go over well, especially with the gas for...

So I'm building this reloading bench and figured I'd share my progress! This was built using all free wood(mainly pallets, but 4x4 fence posts for the legs) This is based off plans I found on the web, they look pretty old. I plan on adding some 2x4 across the top of the table, before I put the...

I'm seriously considering getting the Stainless with wood grips 220 elite in 10mm. Why the Stainless? Cause it's amazing... Don't even get me started on holding it... Trigger is sooooooooo nice and smooth... Grips fit so nice and comfortable... It's like it was made for my hand... I can...

Hey there I'm looking at the hornady lock n load auto progressive press. I'm going to almost strictly reload 6.5 creedmore, as that's all I have (right now) other than 22lr. Will the powder drop and measuring be accurate enough? .1 grain variant or whole grain variance? In the sticky it...

I was taught that when shooting bolt action you only use an open palm vs fully grabbing the bolt with your fingers. The reason being with just an open palm you use large muscle memory vs fine motor memory. What are your thoughts guys?

Hello all! New guy here. I'm looking at getting into long range, 1000M+ shooting, starting small obviously. I plan on starting at about 300 yards. I just need to find a caliber. I was looking at 300 win mag, but a friend of mine said the recoil is worse than his Shiloh sharps 400 grain .45...
