I think a lot of people are holding off on shooting the ammo they have for a little while. Something like the " wait and see " mentality. People just don't know what's going to happen, but they have...

Yeah, not many people are shooting these days. Even 22lr because if you look at the prices online you'll see those 500 rd bulk packs for sale at above $200 which is nuts if you ask me. Right now it...

I've been finding more 10mm recently. I think it's because it's one of the calibers of ammo you can still find in the stores so some people are getting into that caliber just because they want to...

I added some 223 brass to my list

I updated my list of totals and added some bullets to my list.

What kind of trade ratio are you looking to get with the LC 7.62x51 brass ?
Forum: Brass Trading
I finally decided against reloading 10mm so I added to my list the 10mm brass I've accumulated over the past few years. Non of the brass was ever reloaded by myself.
I never ended up buying any...

I use a punch set to label mine. A " W " for wheel weight, a " SW " for stick on wheel weights, a " R " for range scrap, a " P " for pure roof sheeting lead, and a " S " for range pickup slugs. I...

Finished melting over a ton of wheel weights into lead muffins. I think I have officially acquired my lifetime supply of bullet casting lead. It took me several years to accumulate this much. I feel...

Padded flat rate envelope is only 5 cents more than the small flat rate box and it holds 3 times more.

Yeah, I learned my lesson after the Sandy Hook shortages. A couple years ago I started buying a couple bulk packs of 22lr every time I went to the store because they were $19.99 Now a few years later...

I scrap my spent primers too, but wont be doing that anytime soon because the stock market crash took down brass prices too. Once all these trillions of newly created "out of thin air" dollars the...

Updated my list.
I have a lot of 380 acp brass I wish I could get rid of.

Lyman hasn't update the cast lead manual and included 300blk yet, but their other manual was recently updated (50th edition) and it includes some 160 grain cast lead loads. The powders they list are...
Forum: General chit chat
The lyman manuals highlight the most accurate loads for each bullet. They have 2 manuals. One is dedicated only for lead bullets and it's an excellent loading manual.

I use bullseye, 700x or titegroup if I want efficiency and I use longshot and power pistol if I want the most velocity. Those powders work in semi autos and revolvers, but if I want even more...

DukeInFlorida swages them into 30 cal rifle bullets.
Forum: Brass Trading
I use the dillon 600 super swage that costs around $100
If you use the $12 swage gauge you can properly adjust your swager.

Only 223 I've seen that never has a crimp is remington head stamp. Most of the federal and winchester head stamps are now crimped.
