He is referring to the appropriate equipment to make you own ammunition from components. If you are interesting, all the information you could hope for is in the reloading forum on this web site.

Reloading is a detailed hobby in and of itself.
 
Too bad I can't spell

Like Full Effect said, a reloading press.:eek:

Don't be afraid to get started in this. Reloading will provide tremendous freedom of choice in your shooting interests (like when you read about the .44 Special, and how nifty the guns are that use it, but that factory loads are limited in power and diversity). And it's the only way to make lots of centerfire practice affordable, even if you stick to just the .45 ACP.

Lee and Dillon make the two brands most worthy of consideration. The Dillon stuff is unsurpassed for warranty and customer support, but you pay for it. The Lee equipment is a little tricky compared to the Dillon, but much cheaper. With a good progressive press you can turn out 500-1000 rounds per hour.
 
Interesting

It is interesting, it would be nice to make some rounds with HE.(If its possible)
My wife would probably kill me if I turned the garage into an armory and a ammo factory.

All joking aside. How much does it cost to make ammo?

Thanks

HE=high explosives

I meant HE=high explosives
not HE as in heavy equipment.

Funny, because I deal with both in the Marines.

Thanks

45 acp HEDP rounds will get you in trouble. So will any white star clusters. Reloading will allow you to shoot more for less, but as anyone who does it will tell you, any savings per round is more than spent on equipment or the ability to load and shoot more.
