Thanks for all the responses. I finally got a chance to sit down and load some lastnight. The seem to have come out great. I only loaded 4 and now I want to test fire them to see how I actually did. After than mass production here I come.

Alright I need a bit of help reloading some .45 Colt. I believe I have the sizing dae all set up. Didnt think that one was so hard. So in I am not running off the book data for the O.A.L. but using a a store bought cartridge for the length. The reason is the Hornady book seems to leave the ring on t...

Well bench is for the most part finished. I still need some bins, and I think I'm going to pick up a cabinet drawer for underneath. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8397/8687838482_9209b8422f.jpg So the dies said to clean them out with a solvent before using as the facotry oil can mess up the the powde...

Yeah, I do realize that this will not be the fastest for reloading the pistol ammo but I am just looking learn right now and by almost everything I read people said start with a single stage if you are just starting out. Others though said just jump right into a progressive. I'm that kind of person ...

And walked out with this.... http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8524/8683963981_baf0f27782.jpg Now I have a some questions. 1. What the hell did I get myself into? I'm sold on the kit yet. The past few days I was kicking around buying just the press and piecing together the rest as I really would get the...

Been following this with some interest as when I start reloading this is a caliber I want to reload. I clearly have more research to do.

Question...What is a lubricated bullet?

Much appreciated everyone.

Took the gun to the range yesterday and the attention it took me a bit by suprise. The range instructors where all looking and it and I let shoot it and a bunch of people were coming up and looking at it drooling. Got a few scratches in the stock so I think I have to spend some money on a butt stock...

Finding used brass has been a pain by me. One gun shop sells all their spent shells from the range to a scrapper and the other gun shop is starting to reload so they wont sell their shells anymore. So I made them an offer, I would trade some primers for shells. He gave me a call yesterday and said h...

I think I echo the sentiments of most on post. I am not willing to pay $600 to come to someone’s property and hunt pigs. Especially if you want them off because they are causing damage. I’m not against someone trying to make a buck, just not willing to fork over the case. Same thing with prairie dog...

I was in Wisconsin this weekend visiting my parents and stopped into a reloading store. They had small & large pistol and small & large rifle in. I bought 1000 of the small rifle and large pistol. I dont even reload yet. Going to start some time but here soon just stuff has been hard to find...

Nice gun Vedearduff and thanks for all the info and links to guides. I ran about 25 rounds through it at the range this weekend. Made no sight adjustments just wanted to toss some lead out of it down range. I started to clean it tonight ran into to a bit of a problem. I picked up some Grace USA scre...

Thanks for all the great information. I had a feeling this was the right spot. So the story behind the gun (and why the case is in the photo) is I picked up the case in Mexcio about 2 years ago on my wife and my honeymoon. After getting home I found that none of the guns I owned would fit in the cas...

Hello all, I recently bought my first lever action. I got a Uberti 1873 sproting rifle with the case hardened finish chambered in .45 colt. So far I love everything about the gun. Havent fired it though. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the lack of user manaul. It has one, just in my opinion for t...
