    Wildcat! Something New For Me

    I've always owned factory rifles chambered for factory cartridges, for which I reload using published data from powder and bullet manufacturers. I recently adopted an old FN (1951) Mauser, rebarreled and chambered for a wildcat cartridge......namely .22-243 Winchester. This wildcat is simply a...

    Bound to happen. 7 full stations, yup no typo.....7! APS bit the dust...would have been nice to at least have an option...I love APS!:( The market still refuses to take primer pipe bombs and Murphy serious.:rolleyes: Until that changes, APS on a new press is unwise marketing-wise. It comes...

    Harvey's Prot-X-Bore Swaged Bullets?

    Has anyone heard of this 1950's idea to make lead bullets out of pure soft lead that won't smear lead all through a bore? http://www.hawkbullets.com/Prot-X-Bore.htm It appears that Hawk Bullets, champion of soft thick annealed jackets over soft lead cores, is resurrecting the idea, of...

    Sizing Blinged LC 7.62 Brass in a Summit and a RockChucker II.

    Using an RCBS .308 small base sizer on some once-shot LC brass, I came across an interesting behavior. Sizing the properly lubed brass once gave me anywhere from .001" to .007" runout as measured by the RCBS Casemaster 1/8" from the mouth of each case. (measurement is post sized brass only no...

    Homemade Wet Tumbling with Stainless Made Simple and Cheap

    What if wet tumbling with stainless with a homemade tool could be more efficient than a Thumlers, and so easy to make that anyone can do it in one weekend for less than $50 I saw this on AR15.com and I'm thinking it would be dumb not to make one. Super simple homemade bling maker. Rare earth...

    Need Bulk Dry Media for cheap? Not at DrillSpot!

    Drillspot used to sell corncob freight-free 40#/$25. A great deal for reloaders. That's history. Now it's $35 and add another $34 freight charge! You can save the freight by buying it from a local Grainger store, but no store, no deal. I discovered another more palatable source: I ordered some...

    .30-06 vs .270 vs 7mm Mag

    I found the .30-06 vs. .308 both very entertaining and informational at the same time. I think such is was worthwhile for everyone. How about lets add the following to the discussion? (without wrecking the other thread, of course) I read an article in a military-slanted gun mag a few years...

    Interesting Hornady Announcement/Video

    To Turret or not to Turret, that is the question.

    First of all I'm new here. A forty-year veteran of reloading, and a 20-month old babe to progressive reloading and some other intermet gun forums. Why am I here? To make new friends and add to my knowledge, of course. If I can make a few contributions, or observations, to help the less...
