I recently acquired an sks and it did not come with the original 10rd mag. previous owner made it tacto cool which I didn’t like that setup, I had to buy a wooden stock for it, now I been trying to find one 10rd original magazine but Im not paying $200.00 to $ 250.00 for the ones I have seen on...

My Co-worker recently brought me some of his grand daughters once fired .308 cases. He wants me to reload them. I never load ammo for other people, occasionally I will let some friends shoot my reloaded 9mm ammo while im with them. Is there like a release form I can have them sign to keep me...

If you sell someone used brass, And the buyer doesnt inspect the case and has a catastrophic failure. Are you the seller liable for anything? Thanks

I ran across this article https://ultimatereloader.com/2018/08/05/223-vs-5-56-facts-and-myths/ Here is the section im interested in. “Load data for 223 Remington and 5.56 NATO is not the same! Use the appropriate load data for the case you are loading.” If the cases are within 1%...

Im trying to bump the shoulder on my 30-30 cases by 4 thousandths, the issue is I have no more die turn on my Forster Coax press. The die is screwed down as far as I can go before it starts hitting the the jaws on the coax . It hasnt bumped the shoulder any. Im using a RCBS Full length...

So I was loading a batch of 30-06 this afternoon and decided to load half this batch by weight and the other half by volume. My brass is all from the same lot so they are all pretty darn close as far as having the same internal volume. I used my Lee perfect powder measure to dispense 34.22cc...

Im ready to load another batch of 30-06. I typically sort my Match bullets by ogive. But was wondering if it would be more efficient to first seat the bullet with my competition seating die, then measure then adjust the die to my specs that I wanted then seat them again. thanks I dont measure...

I have been reloading for almost 15 years. In all this time I have never owned a chronograph. When ever I did a load development, always let the target tell me what was going on. I was wondering what chrongraphs every one uses or if one is necessary. Thanks

Where I live, Humidity is a major problem. Unless I soak my dies in oil and I mean soak they will rust. And I have tried every oil from Barricade to CLP I recently have been treating my dies with Isso GunBrite polish. and it really has cut down on the rusting on the outside. Leaves no...

I picked up a Colt Trooper MK III yesterday. And the Bluing on it is fantastic. I shoot alot of Lead reloads and I noticed on smith 586 it leaves alot of lead and fouling on the cylinder and the barrel. Im assuming this will happen on the Colt Trooper. I been using Boretech eliminator to...

I was setting up my forster co ax to load some 158grn Lead Semi Wad Cutters, When I set up my seating die , I didn’t screw the seating stem out far enough and I seated the bullet with just the tip protruding out of the end of the case. There is 3.5 grains of Bullseye Powder in there. My...

While cleaning a closet in my parents House. I found an old Single Shot Gun that I use to hunt with when I was 12 to 13 years old. The forend came off so I used camo duct tape and I taped it to the barrel and I taped the entire barrel. The Duct Tape will not come off. Its been on there 25 years...

Does anyone know if redding makes custom dies? I noticed that they do not make a competition seater die for 303 British. I have one for 30-06 and It works well. The Lee Seater die I have for 303 British produces horrible runnout . Im talking 9 thousandths or worse . I am seating on my Forster...

I have been neglecting to load up some ammo for my Lee Enfield MK 4. The powder I want to use is WC846, The reason? I have 16lbs of the stuff and needs to be used. I believe this powder was used for .303 Im assuming I can use BLC2 data start at about 10% below starting data work my way up. I...

I was wondering how much more barrel life in a 9mm barrel you would get out of using Plated bullets vs Jacketed?

I recently recieved a RMS expert that was built by the CMP. It has a new stock and the rear swivel stud is loose and it rattles. Do I just tighten the screw in the butt plate or do i need to take the butt plate off and see if anything else is going on? My 1953 HR M1 with its original stock...
