I just bought another LnL ap press so that I could dedicate one to 9mm, since it's the only caliber I really shoot in high volume. I was disappointed that when I mounted my dies to the new press, that they were adjusted too low and the ram would not raise up completely. Does anyone know a...

I am familiar with the use of the F1 to "make" an sbr from an existing firearm. Now I want something along these lines: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=657282 But I would like to build the receiver from scratch so that it would be classified as an AOW rather than an SBS. I...

I have some farmland available for shooting, but of course there is no backstop available. I can get a lay of the land from satellite view, but I want to know what my minimum distance should be from any roads, etc. I would be shooting .308 out of my truck bed, so the muzzle is ~5ft from the...

I'm going to start reloading bulk rifle soon: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=662741 I will have to resize, trim, and process primer pockets before I even start. I think I've settled on just reaming the primer pockets. Works well for me on the occasional crimped 9mm brass that I...

I'm awaiting the arrival of my 308 AR, and I would like to have some plinking/ blasting ammo ready for it once it gets here. I'm looking for bulk brass and projectiles, and am willing to buy by the couple thousand. The options I have seen for brass are: Wideners: $250/2000...

Sorry for the long blabbering post, but I'm excited that I may soon get to actually purchase my dream rifle that I've been working on spec'ing out and saving for over a year, and I wanted to see what you guys thought: I want a do-all compromise of a rifle. Right now I hunt with a .270...

I'm looking at getting into the NFA game, with my ultimate goal being a suppressed SBR in 300blk. I would prefer not to engrave my lower, so this means buying a complete rifle. Noveske's Rogue Hunter line looks nice, but their pricing seems screwy. An 8" upper is $975, complete rifle is...

My father-in-law wants me to buy my wife this gun in 20ga for dove season this year. I figure he either has one he really likes, or he's always wanted one... Anyway, seems like a good gun, and I'm always game for a new toy in the family, so I figured what the heck. I understand they're...

A friend of mine just put a new scope on his Rem 700 in 30/06, and asked if I would zero the scope for him. It's a Leuplod, but not sure what model. He also gave me ammo, surplus M2 Ball, Greek manufacture. I did not check any of the fasteners on the scope or mounts, but it seemed like it was...

My father gave me his rifle that he purchased new in '79. It's a 'Limited edition II' model. Unfortunately, it sat for years in the closet and got rusty :( The wood still looks fantastic, of course, and the bluing on the barrel still looks great. The problem is on the gold plated receiver...

I'm hoping some hunters here have experience processing their own meat... I have an old hand-me-down grinder that I'm sick of dealing with. I feel like the tolerances between the auger and the outside of the cylinder are too great, because the meat simply passes through this gap and does not...

I've just started reloading 45s for my new 1911, and I can't seem to get them to chamber correctly. I am using 230grn LRN from a local source, http://www.friendswoodbullet.com/45ACP_230grain_RN/p132676_306866.aspx. I am seating and crimping simultaneously with the RCBS die, and i suspect this...

I just bought a new "project" gun, one of these: http://www.americanclassic1911.com/ This is my first 1911, and I expected to have little issues, but overall I am extremely pleased. It's extremely accurate, and has never failed to feed or eject factory ammo. The only problem I'm having...

My wife and I went to the range today and we shot my practice/ IDPA loads in her PX4 subcompact 9mm for the first time, and they gave us nothing but trouble. When she shot, every other round would stovepipe or double feed, or the slide would close on an empty chamber. The brass that did...

I've been doing a LOT of research here and all over the interwebs trying to decide which progressive to move up to from my single stage. I've read benefits of both manual and auto indexing press function. From the design of the indexing pauls on the LNL AP, it seems they could simply be...

I was browsing for used reloading tools online and I came upon a lee reloading press equipped with a die going to a set of LP gas regulators. What the heck would one use this for? I don't know if direct links are frowned upon so I left it out, but it would be easy enough to find...
