So I ran one last batch of 200 rds of 5.56 brass though the wet tumbler before I was leaving for a long trip out of the country. Just got home four months later and realized it was still in there. The tumbler runs on a timer so it wasn't running that long but it's been in the water that long...

I was wondering if anyone buys pistols with consecutive serial numbers on purpose. I just won a gun broker auction with a pair that has this and while I think it's kind of a neat thing to have in the collection I did not bid any higher then I would have for the two pistols.

I'm going to be in the outer banks, specifically Nag's Head for the next six months or so. If anyone can recommend good shooting ranges or clubs and a couple good gun stores I'd appreciate it. Thanks

I'm looking for brass in a few different calibers and if possible would like to place one big order to save shipping. I've been struggling to find places that have them all in stock. It certainly may not be possible but thought I would ask if anyone had suggestions as to good places to look for...

I've just purchased my first AK and have been looking around online for some once fired brass to make some ammo for it. I've been surprised at the prices of once fired brass, does anyone have a good source for 7.62x39 brass? Second question os has anyone had experience with GECO brand ammo...

Got an email newsletter including a link that they are now offering trusts. The price is really good (especially compared to the $700 I paid!) It obvosiouly helps their business a lot but I think it's great that they are making it easier to access the NFA for people who are hesitant or not as up...

So I've had the hornady LNL ammo plant for a few months now but haven't had a ton of time to use it so I've only churned out a couple thousand rounds with it, mostly all pistol. The thing so far has not been a great time saver as I spend more time tweaking and adjusting it then I do pumping out...

I can tell what it isn't.....

I've recently built a reloading and gun room in the basement and I'm struggling to organize all my magazines. I have some akro bins currently but for the space they take up they don't seem to be a great option. I probably have between eighty and a hundred handgun mags. Almost all of my rifle...

I purchased 1k once fired Lake City 5.56 brass partly for my AR and partly to make some 300 brass from it. First I was surprised at how freaking dirty this stuff was. I was also really happy with how clean this stuff came after wet tumbling with stainless pins! My question is that some of the...

So I upgraded to a Hornady Ammo plant which has had some teething issues as well as me getting used to a progressive but that's for another post. My question relates to the Hornady powder safeguard die. It's similar in function if I'm not mistaken to the RCS lockout die in that if there is an...

So I am new to reloading as some of you may know from some of my questions so far. Thanks to all of your help I've successfully loaded and shot about 500 res of my own 115 grain 9mm loads now and I'm having a ton of fun. Pretty sure I'm not saving any money at the rate I'm shooting lately. So I...

I have a number of glocks and they have all proven extremely reliable. Just purchased another 19 and had a very consistent issue straight out of the box. Gun would fire the first round and load the next one out of the mag but failed to reset the striker. hmmm ok. I was using light target ammo...

Just a little excited, I know its many months away from getting to play with it but still!

I currently have a single stage hornady press and I'm debating about going to their progressive. When switching the dies as they are both hornady do they need to be adjusted between the two presses or are they manufactured close enough that you can go back and forth using the bushings? Thanks...

What is the best method or accepted method of cleaning out the powder measure when you are switching powders for different loads. Obviously there is potential for a serious issue if you're metering out a mix of the right and wrong powders. Thanks for the help

So With insight and knowledge learned here I decided to start reloading, picked and a press and about a week ago loaded up my first batch. I loaded 9mm consisting of: New remington brass CCI 500 primers 115gr. Berry's plated round nose 4.1 grs Winchester 231 powder Seated to 1.160 (edit: NOT...

So I'm getting ready to reload my first batch ever. Going to do 100 rounds of 9mm using new Rem brass. Going through the instructions with the die it says to adjust the die down until you get the desired crimp....problem is I don't know how much I want. I tried a few for practice and then...

I've been struggling to find a CT FFL that honors the GSSF discount coupon, anyone know of some that do? Thanks

This just popped up in one of the geeky tech news sites that I read daily. It appears that it's a round that has a bullet that is split into thirds that upon exiting the barrel is flung outward by centrifugal force. I find it hard to believe that this could be accurate but I searched the web...
