I sold my M1A and realized I still have some ammo for it. I have: 1 box of 20 rounds - 168 grain Norma Match Sierra Matchking HPBT 1 partial box with 38 rounds - Magtech 7.62 x 51mm Ball M80 3 boxes of reloaded ammunition 2 of the boxes 20 are loaded with Barnes 175 grain triple shock...

I have a model 29 I think with a 6” bbl. It’s a mag but I often shoot specials through it. I like to give people 5 specials and one mag for the 6th round.

I bought several of these a few months back. They are good shooting rounds and are actually made by Winchester, they are the same as the white box Winchester rounds. They have good consistency and I haven't had any FTF or FTE with the ones I have shot. I have two 150 boxes for sale - $100.00 for...

What are your concerns as far as listing them goes that you need to be concerned with the moderators? I have never had any issues with them when it comes to selling them. I would say that unfortunately hasn't been an issue over the last few years. I usually post them on here and armslist and...

I finally bought my FNX-45 Tactical that I've wanted for a really long time and now I looking to start reloading 45 ACP. I've done extensive reloading in several rifle rounds but I haven't reloaded pistol in a while and haven't reloaded .45 ACP before. Are there any powder you would recommend...

I did find a guy on eBay that is a reseller of BX triggers for Ruger. He takes it a step further and measures the trigger pull on every one he carries and sells. I paid about 10.00 more for one with a 2.00-2.25lbs trigger pull. I measured it and he was right on the money. I haven’t had a chance...

I've been planning on getting a Redding 7 turret press. It seems to get high marks from just about everyone that uses it. It would be nice to not have to screw in and out my dies to switch between my Grendel and CM.

Shooting to get my brass is my favorite way to get it. The only thing I don't like is having to inspect and measure each round just in case. I have been buying 100 pieces of brass from Hornady. It is by far the cheapest I've found and it is always nice just to prime, powder, and pick a bullet of...

I would start with 140 grain bullets. Overall, that seems to be a pretty consistent bullet across the whole cartridge. I just bought some 140 SST that I am going to test for hunting season. I also have a 6.5 Grendel, so I try to re-load with bullets and powder that will work in both. Seems like...

I use my full size resizing die with decapper all the time. I've done it hundreds of times with no issue.

Yes, what others have said. Just to the actual UPS hub and it can only go ground, but its not a big deal. I used to send my .308 reloads to a friend in Illinois and it was never an issue to ship.

I have an RCBS trimmer, works pretty well. After I bought the Franklin Arsenal Brass prep center, I removed my RCBS from the work station and never used it again. It's badass... The trimmer works great, especially if you put use the chamfer debur head, but the Franklin has a motor instead of my...

I use the same setup you just purchased or got for Christmas. I use lemi-shine and Dawn ultra concentrate. I've noticed the pink tint when I put too much lemi-shine in, looks like rose gold. I would agree with others that is doesn't take much. I use about 1/2 a teaspoon. I have the same tumbler...

I use Varget all the time. It is a great powder for .223. As long as the charge falls within the min-max load in your manual, you should be fine. There are several max loads depending on the round that have the + symbol next to the max load which means it will be a compressed load. 25.0 seems...

I agree, I wouldn't pull the primers. just re-size and reload

I use Unique and I really like it. I don't generally get any around the mouth, but sometimes I give it another go in the rock tumbler to get any residual off. I've tried lanolin and many other brands of sprays. Not a real big fan. I had a set of Redding dies that hated the stuff. That is why I...

I can't bring myself to buy anything from them. I feel like they should have a larger hunting/gun/ammo section then they have for a sporting goods store in Oklahoma. I don't get the feeling they want that type of business, so I don't give it to them.

I would agree with the others that brought up PSA as an alternative. They offer some pretty inexpensive models. You could get a little more for the money buying from them over a bottom of the line gun from Bushy or others. I've built several AR's and have used some PSA parts like their LPK, and...

Thanks, that is great to hear. I loaded 18.5 and 19.0 as test rounds. I was looking for something that I could use with my 62 grain plinking rounds. I don't really have a setup that cranks out the rounds, but I was able to make them much faster given that my Hornady Auto dispenser wasn't...

I'm right there with TyMD. I started with the same premise. Instead of buying ammo, I'm spending my money trying different rounds an powder. As TyMD stated, it does give me the opportunity to shoot more for less. To the point of the thread I would agree, making your own hand loads eliminates...
