    Is it "panic buying" or lots of people with spare time right now?

    I bought bullets, primers and powder because ammo prices were going up and I feared components were going to follow shortly thereafter. Can't hurt to have extra components anyways,especially in an election year.

    Case bulge 45 ACP

    I have a rollsizer and I found that any range 45acp brass that I pick up and process through it (after being cleaned of course) all needed to be rollsized. I found they were more bulged than the 40 caliber cases. This at least was my experience.

    6.5 creedmore load development

    I like your target #2 for sure. I think that's where I'd work at .1 grain increase/decrease and chrono the results.

    Advantages of steel pin case cleaning, if any?

    Wet washing eliminates any lead dust, which is a big plus. I only wet tumble my brass with the stainless steel median initially for all types of brass. For rifle brass after the initial cleaning and then after lubricating and sizing, I just re-wash with dawn and lemi shine only (no median). I...

    Anyone using the Lee Buldge Buster on 9mm and 380?

    Peterk1234- I have an Archon Type b 9mm and I had a lot of issues with the slide not going into battery. The rollsizer solved the issue. It works a lot faster an easier than a Lee bulge buster set (which I had used for 40 S&W cases) now both are done via the rollsizer. Just a lot more $ than a...

    Anyone using the Lee Buldge Buster on 9mm and 380?

    I use a manual rollsizer https://www.doublealpha.biz/us/rollsizer-complete-manual-mini-roll-sizer Not cheap but it works great for removing any bulge especially if your firearm has a tight chamber.

    What clever little things have you "invented or discovered" that you can share?

    For those using or interested in purchasing a Sinclair Bullet Sorting Stand with Dial Indicator, I had noticed that any slight movement of the placement of the base comparator could make the readings vary on the dial indicator. To eliminate any change in the placement of the comparator I...

    Separating 9's from 380's. Tricks?

    You need the shell sorter brass sorter 380 ACP adapter plate that will fit inside the color coded shell bowl set, which I believe you use. https://www.amazon.com/Shell-Sorter-380-plate/dp/B01C66560O

    What clever little things have you "invented or discovered" that you can share?

    Greetings, apologize if this has been mentioned before, but I use a skateboard type tape which is adheasive on one side and has a sandpaperish feel on the other, which prevents my beam scale from moving. Also, thanks to the individual who posted the idea for the magnifying glass on their scale...

    S&B brass

    Had a friend load with Winchester primers, which was difficult due to snug fit in S&B brass. Although he was successful in seating it to the correct depth, the primer blew back towards bolt when at the range. Luckily no damage or injury, but using their S&B primers resolved the difficulty in...

    Question about drying my brass

    I would recommend the following the Lyman case dryer. It works great and has a shut off timer. Price is very reasonable and it has several trays for cases to dry on via hot air. This is the price currently on MidwayUsa.

    Does reloading 9mm range ammo make any sense?

    I would also recommend reloading 9mm if you are planning on shooting regularly. I bought a Dillon Square Deal B which will come setup for 9mm if you choose that caliber. I can reload approximately 300 rounds in an hour and that is at a normal typical pace, not rushing. I find reloading very...

    Where are reloading components available (Not a Discussion Thread)

    I hear ya! I just bought the 8lb Varget deal and it ended up being $200.94 with the hazmat fee. Still saves about $5 dollars for each lb I could buy locally.
