  1. Hodgdon announces another $$$$ increase

    I agree.
  2. Reloading for 308 win SA

    42 cents a round for the powder in 308 Thats going to be close to a dollar per round for plinking ammo with used brass.
  3. Is it worth reloading for 223/5.56

    Today 556 target rounds are going to cost .10 bullet .15 powder $40 a pound mid range cost .09 primer .05 case That is .39 cents / round with about .02 in expendable cost for case tumbling. It is not going to pay off for a long time but you do get better more consistent rounds when you get...
  4. Another Dumb Question - This time - powders

    I would use Varget or H335 for all of the calibers you mentioned. H335 will meter better with a powder drop. H335 will be cheaper than Varget. More people love Varget so it is probably a little better for precision loads. I do not shoot enough precision to be able to make a valid statement on...
  5. A question for you veteran Reloaders

    There are several factors that determine if lube is needed. Case length and taper, case surface condition and how much the case expanded when fired are a few factors that come to mind. I mostly reload 556, it is a relatively short case with a fair amount of taper. Those factors reduce the...
  6. Republic Ammunition - Anyone bought from them?

    Mine came in. Good packing. I am hoping the price continues to fall on primers. If you have less than a years supply I would suggest buying at this price. If Russis decides to expand the war or if China gets anxious there will probably be panic buying.
  7. Republic Ammunition - Anyone bought from them?

    The shipping was not cheap 33 + 10 hazmat for 10,000 spp but there was not tax to Georgia. I am set on primers till mid next year. If the war does not spread to Europe, maybe primers will be in the 4.5 cent range.
  8. Got a stoopid question

    Graf and Sons is a good source of reloading supplies.
  9. FINALLY fixed 3-4 related issues with Dillon 650 Press - Short Video Explanation

    Same for me. I kept my 650 for processing brass but I hardly ever use it. I like the 1050 much better.
  10. Primers in stock

    CCI SRP work fine in my 1911, 2011 and factory striker glock. In 9mm 124gr at 1080 fps, I cannot detect any velocity difference between SPP and SRP. The only difference in primers is that I know a glock with springs that produce a lighter than factory trigger pull will occasionally fail to...
  11. 20 lbs of empty brass shells.. where to sell?

    PM sent offering scrap price and no reply.
  12. Cleaning rust off reloading dies

    I used evaporust once. It is amazing
  13. 10mm load data?

    I have used Vihtavouri 3N38 and N340 to get to those levels reliably. 3N38 has a max load published that gets 180 gr to 1289. That is not a huge leap to get to 1500. I would only use new Starline brass in a gun with a well supported case head with precise powder measurement on those loads. A...
  14. 30.06 for M1 Garand? Easy to Reload?

    The break even point depends on the value of your time. if you find used equipment , a wild guess Is you can get started for $300 Maybe less. a loaded 308 or 30-06 ball round is going to cost you 55 cents approximately. .15 bullet, .10 primer .30 powder assuming you load about 50 grains of...
  15. Midsouth has powder in stock

    Surprised to see N320 and N340 in stock. 6 can limit on 1 pound cans.
  16. 10mm Small Primer Pockets

    You can change them out. A Dillon 1050 or 1100 requires the change of a few parts that need to be tweaked to get them exactly where I want them. I load range pickup brass and there is a range of depths in the primer pockets of the brass.
  17. 10mm Small Primer Pockets

    External detonations are a real thing. I saw a lady experience one in a match last summer. She was shooting 40 major. The bullet hit her in the lip and cut it pretty deep. There wasn’t enough of the case left to identify on sandy soil. When she lifted her lip there was so much blood I thought...
  18. Safety Question

    If it happens in the future attempt to fire it again. Most will fire with the second strike.
  19. Rare Powder Find Outdoor Depot Gainesville

    I can’t believe I found a 4 lb jug of N320 today sitting on the shelf. They had a lot of titegroup and other powers. A lot of nice guys working in there also.
