    Anyone used a lockout die yet?

    So this looks like a very promising concept. Sure it wont catch a very small difference but it looks like it would be just the ticket in eliminating almost all double charges/over charges or bad squibs. Id be interested in trying one out, would be a great safety check for those who are worried...

    Brass life

    SO I bought a good 2k .38spl brass with another 1.2k on the way (got to stock up right:D). Question is this, when can you tell the brass is worn out (for lack of a better term). I had a few that when sized the pull felt very lose (compared to the vast majority of others, that required at least...

    Sometimes old is better.

    I bought a old Mossberg 195 12ga a few months back for $25. It was missing a bolt head, and covered in rust, but the price was right. I just finished painting it, and the missing bolt head arrived in the mail today. So I grabbed a few shells and headed out and see if the old gun was any good. I...

    Rubber bullets

    Anyone there use rubber bullets. I figured id add them onto my order from Midway and use them for a really cheap close range plinker (just use a trap). Anyone out there use them? Any trouble getting them into the case or does the standard 38 die set work? Ill modify a few 38 cases by enlarging...

I am brand new at the reloading game so I didn't want to take advice for 9mm loads on 38s. basically my question is what is a good powder for use in 38 special. Nothing special and just for target/plinking. Ill be...

    As I get closer to rebarreling my 1903a3 I am wondering if anyone know how a short cartridge like the 223 would work in the long 1903 30-06 action. Im thinking of about 50 different options right now so im just eliminating options right now. The big three are keeping it 30-06, going 308,7.62x39...

    Gunsmithing?

    So a local gun shop has a Remington model 11 that is completely broken down (I.E. down to the last spring). If I bought it could I restore it, and then resell it? For a profit? Not for a profit? Back to the shop? Or maybe just put it on consignment in the shop? Is there any reason that this...
