    IMR 4227: What can I do with it ?

    It’s the most accurate powder I’ve found for my .44 H&R Handi rifle. 21 grains under a 240 gr. XTP does the trick on whitetail.

    Quiet Vibratory Cleaner

    Just a word of caution. I don’t think I would run any cleaner on carpet. I’m pretty sure the cooling vents on my midsouth are on the bottom.

    Quiet Vibratory Cleaner

    I have 2 vibratory cleaners. One is the Midsouth brand (who knows who actually made it) and the other is the large Dillon. I only keep the midsouth around for lube removal duty. The Dillon does a much better job of cleaning. Neither of them are real noisy.

    Finally Have a Proper Working Bullet Feeder for my .223 loader.

    Dang! That looks great. I tried doing the 3D printing and the local library but everything turned out really poorly.

    RMR Shipping Update

    RMR and MBC get 90% of my reloading business. They are both good people IMO

    Recommend a solution for crimped primers?

    Is a carbide cutter available? I would think those would last almost indefinitely against brass.

    What supplies do you want?

    I’m good on primers but I’d like some nice 123gr bullets for loading up some Grendel rounds.

    Recommend a solution for crimped primers?

    I got rid of my Dillon 600. It wasn’t fast, and unless you had all matching headstamps, it gave somewhat irregular results. Now I just use a drill bit mounted reamer. It’s inexpensive and easy.

    How much powder do you own?

    Not today Mr. Fire Marshal man. Not today.

    44 mag vs. 45 colt

    Yes, it would give you more stuff to buy. Dies, projectiles, cases. Possibly you are right. However, I wouldn’t want to get shot with this.

    New Thermal from Leica

    At least it comes with FREE shipping. Lol

    All my dad's loads are over max.

    How do the primers look after you shoot the rounds? If they are flattened much or flowing out, then I think I’d work up my own loads. You might find a load that is more accurate with less recoil.

    Bullets for .38/.357

    What dies are you using on the Dillon? Dillon pistol dies for revolver cartridges use a roll crimp.

    Bullets for .38/.357

    I use a Dillon 650 and so I seat and crimp in 2 different dies. IF you’re using a single stage press I know some guys will say learn how to do both operations in a single step. The dies are made to do it that way. However it’s much easier to seat and crimp in 2 different operations.

    Bullets for .38/.357

    For just target shooting and plinking? 158 gr. Coated Lead semi wadcutter. Many companies sell them. I like Missouri Bullet company.

    $10.00/1000 CCI 500 Primers!

    I think that’s wishful thinking. Many people after sandy hook couldn’t find .22 because of the panic. It took years before I saw .22 ammo (besides shotshells) in my area. Years. Now we’re in the worst primer panic in forever. It’ll take a long time before it evens out. I hope I’m wrong.

    $10.00/1000 CCI 500 Primers!

    !!!!! Per 10k???? The lowest cost primers I’m still using are $11/k Winchester stuff.

    To lube or not to lube?

    Always -always- lube bottle neck cases. It makes life SO much easier. I will also lightly lube pistol cases too. I highly recommend using Dillon spray lube, or make your own (lanolin based recipes are online). I once got a .308 case stuck in my die after using Hornady one shot. I’ve also...

    Want to move to wet tumbling, couple of questions

    I don’t wet tumble-I don’t see the advantage of it personally. From what I’ve read most guys DO decap before wet tumbling.

    leading barrel

    Do you have the lead bullets already? If not, order powder coated bullets. Leading, if any, will be very minimal.
