    M855A1 available!

    Well I've been looking for "decently" priced loaded ammo or pulled bullets in M855a1 configuration for some time now. For those that aren't aware, around 2011 the US Army adopted a new 5.56 round designated as the M855a1. Unlike the standard M855/Green tip the penetrative tip on the new round is...

    .308 or .30-06 to .300 Savage

    not sure if I should post this in reloading or Rifle Country but I think since this has to do with Brass here is the right place. Basically what I'm looking for is anyone who has successfully trimmed down .30-06 or .308 brass to use for loading .300 Savage cartridges. I'm a huge lever gun fan...

    New Lever gun, experiences with Taylor&Co?

    Well I decided I have enough ARs for now so decided to get another lever gun. I got in touch with Taylor's &Co with the intention of ordering another 1892 based action in the form of an Alaskan take-down in .44 Mag. After browsing their products and talking with them about pricing though I went...

    Ultra Accurate .45 loads with Blue Dot

    ok so I've been experimenting a lot lately with .45 Colt and recently came up with my most accurate load yet using Blue Dot. Disclaimer: This load is over MAX for black powder/single action .45 Colt frames and should not be used in these firearms. For modern revolvers, lever guns etc this is a...

    9mm +P Load Data-PUBLISHED LOADS

    Im going to try to post this question again, with the fact that I am talking about PUBLISHED loads in a MAJOR MANUFACTURERS LOAD MANUAL emphasized. I am also posting pictures of pages of this data for reference, so please don't delete my post. Anyway, I'm curious to see if anyone has anything...

    2-Budget AR's-5000rd review/Update

    ok so both of my "budget" ARs are officially passed the 5k round mark (each) now, so I wanted to do a little mini review to report on their performance. By and large they both performed excellent and that's the main reason I wanted to share. Even to this day some people tell me they want to get...

    Shell Holders for priming; school me.

    Ive never used a hand priming tool before, always primed on my presses. Lately though I've been wanting to maybe sit and prime a bunch of cases while watching tv or something so I've been considering breaking out one of the two RCBS hand priming tools I have, but low and behold my Lee shell...

    There are some very scary people in this world....

    Ok so I'm not talking about thugs and gang bangers with AKs and Tec 9's in dark alley ways, I'm talking about average Joes. Went to the range earlier tonight for a little break from football on my relaxing Sunday and met a man that literally scared me within moments of meeting him. Why was he so...

    Percussion Caps- different sizes between brands?

    Aren't all BO caps of a certain # all supposed to be the same siZe regardless of lot or manufacture date etc? I finally ran out of my old stash of Remington 11's, so I went and bought a new package of Remington 11's as well as a pack of CCI 11's to try. The Remington package says "new and...

Brought my Savage 110 My previous best 10-shot group had been well over 6", but today I must have been "in the zone". 5.53" 10-shot group at 1000. Not Guineas material but I'm still happy with...

    EDC/CCW: how many rounds do YOU carry?

    I'm so thrilled with all the responses to my IMT ammo post, so I decided to start another. These responses and discussions are the entire reason I decided to get into this forum so thank you all in advance. Anyway, another common topic that is always discussed at my local action pistol shoots...

    IMT brass headstamp-confusion/misinformation?

    Ok so I have heard many things about the IMT/Freedom Munitions brass that I want to try and clear up. I also am never against any new information coming my way as well. The issue has been stated that because of the "ledge" inside the case for their 9mm and 45 ACP (possibly other calibers too)...

    Good .223/5.56 62 grain loads for M4

    Hey guys, looking to share and possibly also receive some good loads for .223/5.56 target shooting. Specifically 25-50-75 yard "iron sight" shooting because that's what these loads are for me. The 2 ARs I use for this purpose both seem to like 55-62gr loads with 62s providing the tightest group...

    NAA Companion Experiences

    Hey guys, new to the forum here. I've been a reader for some time and an avid shooter/CCW holder for over a decade but this is my first day joining. I'm mostly into centerfire but the last year or so I've gotten into BP revolvers. I have a few Pietta/Uberti repro guns, but honestly my favorites...
