I've been using one for about three years with no problems and no belt breaks. Last summer I ditched the two canisters and also went with a length of PVC pipe with stoppers at both ends, the kind that tighten with a hex nut. I hated opening and unsealing the original dual cans. Now I get more in...

Good writeup. I do pretty much the same, although I use the stainless steel media. After seeng the incredible amount of dirt and grunge coming out of the container using the SS pins, it's worth it to me. I'm pretty sure I overload the containers, but with the super cheap HF extended warranty...

I made this out of PVC pipe and fittings, all friction fitted—no glue—so everything rotates for custom positioning. It can fold flat for transport and storage. Wire frames and wing nuts to hold mesh open are from CMP ammo crates. I usually use the short center upright pipe on the bench, but have...

Unlike most places with a long phone wait time, RCBS keeps you informed of your place in line, which is nice. I call them, get in line, push the speaker button on my phone, and then go back to work. I lose zero time waiting to talk to a RCBS CS rep. I haven't had to call them that often, and...

Ditto to post #26. Done in 30 seconds.

I believe that any studies conducted by federal agencies will be preceded by instructions from the White House to the effect that, "When I want your opinion, I'll give it to you."

If you've decided on the Pro2000 auto index, the best price I found was earlier this year. $495 plus $32 shipping from www.bigsupplyshop.com. I'm very happy with it, but I have never used a Hornady or Dillon, so take that for what it's worth.

They just drop out the back and many roll into the tray. Many land on the center of the frame and after a while they can start to pile up but a flick of the finger sends them into the tray. A few bounce onto the bench, but surprisingly, very, very few make it to the floor, maybe one in a...

Seems to work on mine okay. I do wish there were a better way to attach it than that plastic bar.

RCBS does have a better solution. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/145927/rcbs-rock-chucker-jr-reloader-special-single-stage-press-primer-catcher That's the good news. The bad news is that while it works better than what came with the press, it still lets too many get away, and if you wait...

After some years using a Rockchucker, yesterday I finished my first 200 rounds of 9mm using an RCBS Pro-2000 with auto index. I couldn't pass it up for less than $500 new a few months ago. Expensive, yes, but I sort of fell in love with it when I got to play with it for a while at the NRA...

Made this out of a few bucks of PVC tubing and fittings from Lowe's, some nylon mesh and zip ties, and three old ammo box wire brackets and wing nuts. It's all friction fit, so everything can rotate to suit whatever angles you need. Folds flat for transport. Sits on the bench but I can also...

I have the RCBS primer pocket swager and the Dillon Super Swage. The Dillon costs a lot more but for speed and ease of use it's worth every penny.

Active and retired military also get a 10% in-store discount, at least in the Cabela's closest to us.

No loading but finished prepping and priming 520 .223 cases. First time using the X-die.

I'm holding off buying online for a little while (although I did buy some CCI #41 at MidwayUSA two days ago, but that's only because I was picking up an order there anyway). The best prices I've seen lately are, believe it or not, at a gun show. One vendor was selling Wolf for $26, Federal for...

Mythbusters looked at silver bullets, but from the Lone Ranger angle, not for hunting werewolves. (There wolves.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythBusters_(2007_season)#Lone_Ranger.27s_Silver_Bullets

I also just found out today that the Kansas City store gives a 10% discount for active or retired military. Don't know if that's a national policy or not. Doesn't hurt to ask.

I realize this may be a subjective question, but when is a primer pocket too loose such that it constitutes a hazard? I use a hand priming tool, so I can feel the resistance to each primer inserted. Some have more resistance than others. Does anyone have a guideline or rule of thumb they use to...

Seemingly at random, the overall length of cartridges varies after the bullet seating step. For example, loading 9mm Luger with 115gr Win FMJ into once-fired brass, and adjusting the seating die to give an overall length of 1.120 with no crimp. Two out of three end up at 1.120 or 1.121, but the...
