    Best way to clean brass?

    I'll follow up on what ma96782 said. I use the Birchwood Casey cleaner when the cases are really dirty. Then I run them for a hour in the tumbler after they are dry. They are clean after the BC cleaner treatment, just shiny after the tumbler. The other option (disclaimer: I am a married man...

No CCW needed. The permit to purchase is required for handguns. But also hand for rifles as is eliminates...

    .22 Rimfire Scope.....my head hurts.

    I have a cheapo 3x9x32 that I put on a Marlin 60 and it seems to work fine. I never use the gun past about 50 yards so I set the scope to be dead on at that range and it has worked fine. I also have a marlin 883SS 22mag bolt action rifle that is fantastically accurate. I wanted to go the...

    Forgetting what setting I left the dillon powder measure at the last time I reloaded, was it the pin rounds or the practice rounds! And then the 10 minutes it takes to figure it out! Whytknyt

    Best cheap plinking ammo for reloading (.45ACP)?

    I built up my supply of 45ACP brass by shooting WWB. Bought a half case at a gun show for about $95 and shot that up to get the brass. I have been reloading that brass for about a dozen cycles in the 550B and have no complaints. Whytknyt

    Basic Reloading info?

    I started with the Speer 13th ed. This was mainly because I was planning on getting the Rockchucker kit when I started. It, along with many forums and websites taught me what I need to know to get started. I think any of the reloading manuals have a pretty good step by step procedure in the...
