    What clever little things have you "invented or discovered" that you can share?

    I was totally bored today and remembered seeing somebody with a cartridge counter on their loader so I figured I would try to make one, had an old programmable display in my junk drawer, an old cell phone charger, some cat 5 cable and two micro switches. Should have extended the switch a little...

    Reloading in a Garage

    I live in SE Florida and have all my gear in non insulated garage, put in a window A/C and a de-humidifier, works pretty good so far. A/C is 82-85 deg. when I'm not doing anything, 78 when I reload or do something else and de-hum is set at 60%

    Gun Show at South FL Fairgrounds

    Went to the show today figuring I would buy some powder, primers and some other stuff, maybe a rifle. I was surprised of the prices, you could buy cheaper guns from Gander, and selection was dismal at best, either assault rifles or super expensive pistols (Glock 26 4th gen. 525.00). I was...

    Cleanist lead bullet

    Or cast and lube your own and "save" more money again, atleast you can mix or buy different lubes to try which you like smoke- and smellwise, different smells from the candle section of wife's closet work good.

    Why buy FMJ handgun bullets?

    I buy Prec. D. 9mm/FMJ @77.00/1000, delivered. Let's see, if I buy 5000 it comes to around 400.00, Rem GS @ Midway is 127.00/1000 + s/h=~630.00 so I can actually buy almost 3000 more from PD for the same money.

    In the beginning... saving.

    I asked how much can I SAVE.... fast forward to present, I was perusing old receipts and surprisingly I haven't saved a penny I've shot everything I've loaded. I started loading for .243win, 380acp and 9mm and have accumulated (herded) nice quantities of brass for all the calibers, ofcourse I...
