    Hard to Dispense Powder

    I have been very pleased with my reloads in .40 cal and 9mm using Titegroup. I am now loading some rounds for my .243 rifle for the first time. I wanted to set up my RCBS powder measure to throw about 35gr and then trickle the rest on my scale. But the two powders I am trying to use (AA4350...

    Marlin 39A Buttplate

    First Reloads!

    After about a month of collecting my equipment, building a bench in my garage, and pouring over load data, I finally shot some actual reloads Sunday afternoon in my Walther P99 .40 cal. I loaded 4.1 gr of Titegroup with 180gr moly covered flat points from Bear Creek with an 1.122 OAL. I was a...

    Die Interchangebility?

    I currently reload with an RCBS rock chucker. I have noticed some good deals on die sets for sale used. Can other brands of dies be used in my RCBS press? Have any of you reloaded with used dies before? Anything to look out for? Thanks!
