    A sight for sore eyes

    This evening I visited a new Rual King farm store here in Spring Hill FL. They won't have any guns in stock for another 3 weeks but man do they have the ammo!:) They even had 22's. Unfortunately, they didn't have any reloading supplies and don't plan to carry any in the foreseeable future.

    Have you ever wondered......

    Last night, while watching the news, I saw a Syrian rebel holding an AK47 above his head spraying some unseen enemy on full automatic. As I sat there watching I thought to myself, "where the hell do they get all their ammo?" Here we are in the land of plenty scrounging every local gun store...

    How to hold Lee Auto Primer

    In the past I've always used the primer loader on my Lee turret press, But after reading about the Lee Auto Prime on this forum I decided to try the Auto Prime. Tonight I primed a couple hundred .45 casings with it and thought it was a great way to prime. My question is how do you hold the...

    Can't understand Midways Shipping strategy

    I ordered 100 .45 brass from Midway on the 10th of April. They said I should get it by the 17th. Actually I'll be getting it today, the 16th. That's great but I live 1hr and 30 minutes from Orlando and my order arrived in Orlando just 2 days after it was shipped. It arrived in my town the...

    Bullets from Mountain States Ammunition

    Has anyone bought "plated" bullets from Mountain States Ammunition? After searching the net for plated bullets for my .45, they seem to be one of the few places that have some in stock without having to backorder. Are their bullets any good?

    One more thing to tick me off.....

    :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: I recently sold a couple of shoulder holsters on Ebay and have a nice little sum in my Paypal balance because of that. So I'm searching the internet every day looking for brass, bullets, primers, etc just like everyone else. So I find a place that has some ammo I...

    First day at range with new pistol

    Got a brand new Springfield Armory XD .45 a couple of weeks ago and today was the first day that I had a chance to get to the range to start breaking it in. Ran 100 rds thru it and it performed flawlessly. This is the first .45 I've ever owned and having a shorter barrel, had me a little...

    Old 2400 for .38spl???

    I have a bunch of .38spl brass and 125 JHP's and about 1/3 lb of old old 2400 powder. Years ago I used this 2400 to load for my .357 with good results. What I'd like to do is use up some of this old powder in this .38spl brass I have in abundance. What would be a good (i.e. safe) load to...
