A friends wife was arrested and charged with DWI a few months back. They were scheduled to take the course and apply for their licenses. Without getting into the morality of the situation, they've asked me whether she'll be able to get it now that she has an arrest for a class b misdemeanor on...

Would you all consider $350 a good price for a 550 with auto prime, 38special dies, and turret?

Guys, I purchased a STI Spartan III in 9mm recently. I had an idea of converting it to 3 Super so I did a lil research and come up with this blog http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2012/08/07/rock-island-tactical-9mm-conversion-to-38-super-part-one/ I haven't found the continuation yet, but...

Has anybody purchased from WolverineSupplies before? They have a good price on the 170 Lapuas I shoot from my fn 308. Figured I'd ask before I wind up in a soap. Good price too.:D...

Okay, have an itch I'm lookin' to scratch. I would like to build either a 284 firebird or a 308 warbird. I'm curious as to whether a smith could build these or is there some kind of proprietary info problem that you folks might know about with Lazzeroni? I haven't yet contacted my guy as he's...

I'm currently looking at purchasing the Redding Type S FL Bushing Die for my 308 and need some guidance on how to choose the correct size bushing for my rifle. The bushings are not included with the purchase of the die and are somewhat expensive. Is it a trial and error procedure, or is there a...

After what I consider a "near miss" during a recent trip to the range I'm here to ask a couple of questions. Can a casing with excessive headspace be resized back to SAAMI specs? If so, how? And in case you're wondering, I failed to check the headspacing on some 30-06 brass before reloading...

Went to the range today and tried out my second series of re-loads for my 6.5 mag. Got home, lubed them with One Shot, let sit a minute or two, and began full length sizing. After a few cases, I noticed a "ring" just above the shoulder on one casing. I payer it no attention and continued...

I've heard numerous times here and another forum of "bumping" the shoulder back. I'm guessing this is accomplished by screwing the sizing die in a little more than the recommended setting? If so, does it work for neck sizing dies as well as FL sizing dies? How do you determine the correct...

I have a chance to purchase a FnH spr action in a hogue overmolded stock along with a shilen (unattached) select matchgrade barrel unturned. Both are new items purchased by an older gentleman that has lost his interest in this build due to health issues.. Having it fitted to the rifle is going...

Hey guys, I joined bout 2 yrs ago and decided to get in to reading. After reading an excellent post by David Georgia I took his advice and purchased literature on reloading and spent about a year studying before equipping myself and of course beginning. Well, now I have a small problem. I'm...
