Isn't this pretty cool? Should make case trimming easier and quicker. https://www.hornady.com/reloading/case-care/case-prep-tools/high-speed-case-trimmer

Most of my reloading manuals are outdated, and instead of buying manuals from different companies, would there be a "universal" reloading manual? I know different bullet brands have their own testings to powder charges and pressures due to the design of their own bullets, or is it more safer to...

Missed those days when I used to use a RCBS powder throw, sticking brass under that thing and drop charges. I got rid of that powder throw ages ago when I stopped shooting pistol and have been using the ChargeMaster and the FX120i to fine tune rifle loads. Doing a tune to see velocity and...

Good ol days when it was cheaper. Had those in my stash for the .38 Super and .45 Sad that the 41 Magnum S&W Classic Hunter SS is gone, loved that pistol.

I have my .38 Super block set up on my Dillon 550B, I checked the dies and had them cleaned out. The crimp die has T. CR stamped on it, so its a taper crimp. The crimp die had little powdered brass flakes stuck in there from crimping the case mouths. I think little crimp is needed just to...

I did a little test with my Dillon that I dusted off after 19 years, used MR-2000 rifle powder, since its ball powder with is similar to Power Pistol, Auto Comp and AA#7. I wanted to see if it leaked, or leaving kernels between the metering blocks, etc. Grabbed 8 fired 38 Super cases with the...

Took a drive out of town, I was lurking in a local gun shop an hour away, and was able to snag Power Pistol and AutoComp, grabbed some lunch. Headed back and stopped at Bass Pro. Found AA#7, and came home happy. Those three should last me a while for the .38 Super and .45. Waiting for my .38...

I had some old loads I made about 20 years ago. I fired them today over the Xero to check speeds. I had some 130 hardballs and 145 grain flat nose, both was using w231 and Blue Dot. Speeds with the 130 is 1175 fps ave and the 145 flat nose with Blue Dot is about 1150 average. About 20% of the...

This 30 inch Bartlien barrel has gone through its 3rd rechamber, first and second chamber did not go too well when a new gunsmith did my rifle work. Had very heavy bolt lift on the 6 BR,and terrible carbon issues on the Dasher afterwards. He did not set the barrel back, he used a Dasher reamer...

I am learning on how to sell some gun stuff on GunBroker. If selling on Gunbroker, how does GunBroker collect fees from the buyer after sales? Does those sales also add more fees to the seller from PayPal and after taxes to the IRS? I would have to adjust the selling price after adding up the...

I have a Frankford Arsenal Lite kit on the way with a dryer. I was wondering if you guys deprime pistol brass especially a large batch before wet tumbling? It's good to keep pockets clean, but some people leave primers in until after wet tumbling. What is your preference?

I have been away from pistol reloading for 20 years roughly. If can remember, I used Blue Dot for my .38 Super and some Unique for the .45 What powders are you guys using for your .38 Super and .45 with light and heavy bullets?

Cleaned up my man cave and dusted off all shelves and came across a big plastic tub on the top shelf and found some old ammo and brass. There was some old 6 BR brass empty and loaded. The loaded rounds has some blue corrosion on the mouths running down the neck. Got the bullet hammer, and...

Just got my Kimber .38 Super back yesterday, my gunsmith removed the adjustable rear sight and installed an adapter and mounted the Holosun 507 Competition. Looks pretty slick seeing those different reticles. Picked the reticle with the dot and the halo. I picked red over green, the " shake...

Headed to my buddy's place to test 6 rounds with Barnes 180 TTSX and RL 25 in Lapua brass and .050" off the lands. 77 - 79.5 grains in .5 grain increments for the ladder to check pressure and velocity. I was expecting mid 3000 on the first round, but surprised on the speed. 77 gr. - 3139 fps...

Wanted to get back in the game after a small hiatus from reloading. I remembered buying two boxes of 180 TTSX for the 300 Win Mag for those tough nilgai. After neck turning the thick Lapua brass many months ago to fix a high pressure issue, I have pulled 6 cases to size, ran a .307 mandrel...

I have been real busy, but was able to fire off 230 rounds of loaded virgin Alpha brass for my 6 Dasher to be fireformed for my upcoming 600 yard matches but there is an issue that I have been wrangling with. It will be quite a lengthy story, but I'll do my best. The Dasher is a .275 no turn. I...

I have two Kimbers that I like to check for spring poundage? I may have swapped different poundage springs 15 odd years ago, and i havent been using the Kimbers at all. It's been in the case ever since and I want to determine what poundage the springs are? How do I verify this?
