Happy to see this category, as I suspect there’s a ton of knowledge in these forums. I got started to make shooting a .50 BMG more affordable, but discovered that reloading is a soothing and rewarding way to spend some time. Now I have dies for everything I shoot except for 7.62x39… for now. Now, I just need more primers.
Great, every good gun enthusiast site needs a reloading section.
Yes, the primer gods need to show us some mercy!
Has there been any word on if/when AAC is going to start selling primers to the public?
Reached the point where it was time to part with some of my old brass, -223 -45acp -38spcl. 30~30.They all served me well for many years and countless reloads, don’t keep a detail log on round counts, some of them look pretty tired, there comes a time for retirement.
See what the scrap guy is paying for brass these days? ![]()
The scrap man isn’t paying much around here. Source: my 5-gallon bucket was full a few weeks ago (I cull as I sort or as I am prepping and when the bucket is full, it goes to the recycler).
Did some 30-06 reloads over the weekend and hit the range today.
Great results. 20fps standard deviation ~2650fps. 5 shot group at 100 yards can be covered with a quarter shooting off of a bag, not a vise.
Thats what I’m waiting to hear too! That and cases!
Found a 9mm/.380 sorting trick, if you have the old wooden Midway #5 loading blocks (or can get them)
