    After The Panic, What Do You Want To Buy?

    Haven't seen a thread like this and got to thinking about it tonight. Once all this craziness dies down and things go back to 'normal', what do you want to buy? A Glock 19 and a Ruger GP100 .357 stainless with a 4" barrel. Lee Classic Turret Press, some more copper jacketed 41 magnum bullets...

    Lee Precision History?

    I'm doing a project and the basis of it is about Lee Precision and their products. However, I'm kinda hitting a wall as far as references and sources. Their website has limited information, but nothing extreme: http://leeprecision.com/history.html I also have Modern Reloading Second Edition...

    Old School Reloading?

    So I'm curious how things were done way back when. I know bits and pieces of info, like the scissor bullet molds that were used over fires and what not. When did the first primers for smokeless powder start cropping up for consumer use? What about presses? First press company? How did they...

    Getting Started Loading 12 Gauge

    So it seems the most prevalent components on the shelf are shotgun. Always wanted to reload for 12 gauge so I figure now is the time to start. I already load for 9mm so I'm not exactly new to the whole concept. A few questions though. If I buy the Lee Load All II 12 gauge press, is that all I...

    41 Magnum Load Data?

    I'm looking for some specific load data for a few different types of bullets and was wondering if someone might be able to point me in the right direction, as I haven't had any luck finding them :( I'm using Unique powder and would prefer to use it, but am planning on getting some 2400, as I...

    Load Data

    I can't for the life of me figure out why powder manufacturers only do select loads, with specific bullet and primer types. For example, why do they only do 200 and 210 grain projectiles for Unique for .41 Magnum? Wouldn't it make sense to do the heavier bullets, as you can use the load data for...

    Obama To Possibly Use Executive Order For Gun Control

    Seeing this on a lot of news websites. My apologies if it has already been posted. Scary stuff. Thoughts? http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/09/politics/gun-control-battle/index.html

    Reselling Ammunition

    I hesitated to put this in the legal section, since it didn't quite fit the criteria. There seems to be a less than savory individual bent on profiting off of panic buying in my area. He is going to the local stores, clearing the shelves of .223, then reselling it for $20+ a box on a local...

    Hassled by Rangers?

    Was out shooting on Saturday on some BLM land that everyone shoots at out here in Arizona and we were approached by Rangers. Never seen them before, outside of their vehicles so I don't know how normal their attire was. They walked up to us (thankfully I had to make a phone call to help out a...

    Fired My First Loads!

    Months ago I dropped several hundred dollars on reloading equipment and I was so tied up with other things in life that at the time, I loaded up 15 9mm rounds of 5 grains of Unique and Berry's Plated Bullets and they just sat, as I didn't have spare time to go shooting. Well, yesterday I finally...

    Anyone Reload .41 Magnum?

    Just recently was given the gift of a Ruger Redhawk .41 Magnum and have come to the conclusion that reloading is going to be a must. I already have a single stage Lee setup reloading 9mm, but I'm wondering, is there anything that I'll need to do differently with this caliber? I want to be...

    Police Trade In Glocks?

    I've been REALLY wanting a Glock 19 lately and I came across these: http://www.mississippiautoarms.com/glock-19-9mm-law-enforcement-trade-p-2570.html?currency=USD Now, I see they are out of stock, but it got me thinking. From a police trade in of a newish gun (not 10-20+ years old), most...

    Ran Into A Snag Here

    So this is my first batch of reloading I'm doing. Brass has been tumbled, deprimed, cleaned the primer pockets and now primed. What I'm wondering about now, is the powder charge to use. I've checked my Lee book and it makes no mention of Unique in their recipes. I checked Alliant's website and...

    Glock 19 Shooters Package?

    Saw these a while back, Glock bag and 3 15 round magazines with the Glock 19. Anybody know of any deals like this going on right now? Can't seem to find anything but the Glock 19 by itself.

    Anyone Reload 12 Gauge?

    Is it possible to do this economically over target loads sold at Walmart for ~$24 per 100 rounds? What about 00 buckshot? The only place I can find that sells buck shot is Midway, anyone know of any sites that sell buck shot in bulk?

    Found Some Interesting Brass Today (Pic Heavy)

    Found what appears to be a .380 casing, but with a 9mm headstamp, it reads S&B (strange symbol) 9mmBr.c. It still has the Sellier & Bellot red primer as you can see in the picture. Left is a Winchester 9mm case for comparison. IMAG0209 by ObsidianOne, on Flickr IMAG0210 by...

    School Me On ARs...

    First and foremost, I'm not looking for a 'target' rifle expecting to leave only one hole on the target and have the rest of the bullets glide through it. I'd like it to be accurate, but I'm reasonable. Chambered in 5.56. I'd like it to be all metal (no synthetic lowers/uppers) and mil-spec...

    Ruger LC9 Sight Adjustment

    I know there's a way to do this but can't seem to find any info on it other than people breaking a spring plunger when trying to remove the rear sight? Anyone know how to adjust the rear sight at all? I looked through the manual and if it's there I missed it :uhoh:

    Spam Cans

    I'm about to the bottom of my first 7.62x39 spam can and I'm trying to think of what I could use the actual can for once it's empty. Anybody come up with anything creative? I guess I could just fill it with brass casings, but trying to think of something more efficient.

    Reloading 7.62x39?

    It seems that brass is hard to come by and paired with the fact that most (if not all) AK variants and SKS have a tendency to 'ding' the casing on the way out, is this even worth my time reloading? Is there a surefire way to fix the dent it leaves in the casing when kicked out? Any decent priced...
