May have been posted before, but this version is pretty nice. All parts are labeled. Pretty cool version. Shows a nice firing demo as well after assembly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6SmlOEzNBs

After 3+ months of my gun setting in pieces, finally got the conversion done on my Saiga S-12. Full of Tapco cr@p right now. Had to grind everything to make it fit, hammer, trigger, stock, and foregrip! The foregrip still splays out at the front. May get rid of the junk and get all Tromix...

My wife will be traveling from Florida to Chicago by car, then flying back. She has Florida CCW so can carry in every state on the way, BUT Illinois naturally. Question is can she get the gun back with her by checking it normally at the airport? I know she can travel with it in Illinois...

I know 45 is forgiving, but I seem to be pretty picky when sorting my brass. Small dents, etc. pass muster, but if I see even a small gouge or scratch it gets thrown in the scrap bin. Some of these are very small, visible but barely able to feel them with a fingernail. Prudent or overly cautious?

Ran a quick 100 on my Loadmaster today (only my 4th session reloading). First time I had absolutely no problems! (at least until I try them out!) My other sessions were no fault of Lee's though, mostly my setup/learning curve issues. 5.4-5.5 gns of Win231 with Hornady 230 FMJ RN with CCI...

Shot the last 50 of my last 300-rd reloads. Had one that went "pfft" and didn't cycle. Cleared the gun and luckily the bullet made it out of the barrel. I'm 100% sure (okay maybe not) that I had powder in every brass. Any other reasons for this? I'm guessing it had to have no, or low, powder.

Whoever is responsible for leaving a loaded gun laying around with a toddler needs to be skinned alive. http://www.wftv.com/news/15545824/detail.html "OCOEE, Fla. -- Ocoee Police are investigating the shooting death of a 22-month-old boy at a residence in the Orlando suburb early Sunday...

Any way to prevent cut primers? Or is this just a fact of life when reloading. I ended up with about 8 bad primes in a 200-rd loading session. Do they wedge in sideways and then get cut as seated, or just too hard to seat for whatever reason? Also had one upside down primer. I assume this...

Guy labels his shotgun shells "For Cops" and then shoots at them. http://www.redding.com/news/2008/feb/21/jurors-man-shot-at-deputies/

I didn't know they made cases like this! Seems somewhat dangerous for reloading. Does everyone check their brass with a magnet before loading? I ordered some 9mm Sellier & Bellot range ammo online, looked like brass, but the box says "Copper Plated Steel Case". Haven't fired any yet, will...

I bought two pans of the shell sorter (40 & 45) after two feeble attempts at making my own. The pans are expensive, but worth it I believe. The plastic is pretty thick, so these things should last awhile. In hindsight I should have just bought the 3-pan set as there's a lot of 22's mixed in with...

OK, haven't even got to use this thing yet. Fell off the bench and onto padded carpeting. Now it just freaks out when I turn it on. Are these things THAT sensitive to bumps? Ridiculous! Of course, "made in China"!

Can a Lee Load-All do a roll crimp for slugs? Do I HAVE to do roll crimps for slugs?

I won't name names, but it is a pawn shop on Busch Blvd. This guy was totally abusive AND ignorant of the rules! I popped a "conditional" on my first gun purchase and it took months to clear things up. Due to that I got an FBI, UPIN number. I started filling out the form, like I have 3 or...

Who's right arm is bigger than the left after all this reloading? :D

Any formulas for converting normal loads to +P levels, with the proper brass of course!

Just wondering how to keep the tumbler media going before tossing the lot? Using treated cob right now with some ceramic pellets mixed in. The ceramic should last forever. Next I'll have to figure out how to sort the ceramic from the cob!

No, not from my reloads. Found this in a batch of range brass I cleaned and tumbled. A little surprised to find it. This is a 40S&W, so probably fairly common. Pretty hard to miss this crack. I'm sure this will just be one of many, but your first one is always special!

OK, still not a "real" reloading bench, but it will suffice for my ocassional 45 ACP reload sessions! Took a few of the previous comments to heart and put down the chair mat and lagged the bench to the wall. Still a pretty cozy area, but for now it will do. Added the two shelves under the...

I washed my second load of brass in some baking soda, washing soda, few drops of dishwashing soap. First batch I swished around, soaked a few hours and rinsed/dried. This time I left it in the soup overnite. Most of the brass was black! I used the citric acid/vinegar trick and they all...
