    Post brass cleaning?

    Myself when cleaning my brass. And I don’t do this every time I’m cleaning brass. But when I really clean my brass I use my ultrasonic cleaner with a little bit of Hornady brass cleaner and this does a super great job on the brass, inside and outside. Now this gives my brass a somewhat dull...

    WHY I PREP MY BRASS AND FLASH HOLES

    I do this same thing. Kinda always have since I started reloading. It’s just something that I was taught to do by my brother and uncle. They both shot competition and were very tedious with everything . lol. But myself I like plinking a little bit and coming up with some good hunting loads...

    What would you do?

    I have a 7mm’s a7mmMag , 7mm-08, and a 7x57mauser. If you do a little bit of research on these calibers you’ll see that they all have been successful with elk hunting. Plus just good shooting rifles. But if you want something that you can go up the ladder just a little bit more. Get a 300winmag...

    Need advice on caliber for Moose and bear in Alaska.

    I was going to suggest a few rifles that are pretty good 7mmSTW , 300RUM , and 8mmMag. I have all three and they are really great rifles. But I see what you’re possibly looking for. Those are some pretty heavy hitters. Will definitely do the job.

    Cooking Hogs?

    My son used to live in Alabama for several years while being in the military. When I would go visit him I got a chance to do some hog hunting and loved every minute of it. We hunted a friend of his farm, which had plenty of hogs and deer. I would always hunt pigs and everyone that I met just...

    Is this safe to clean and use ?

    If it were me I’d find a few of the worst ones, pull the bullet and see what you think about it. Make sure to check out the powder for dampness and smell. As much as brass is now days I’d be willing to check them all and get what you can to work. Good luck be safe.

    7mm STW or 28 Nosler?

    I can’t really say anything about the 28 Nosler. I don’t have any experience with one but the 7mm STW I’ve had one for a while now and absolutely love it. And for now I have a pretty good stash of brass for it. It’s a great shooting rifle. Trying to find out what grain bullet I really want to...

    Still waiting

    My son that was in the military ordered one. You would think that with all the training and military experience and background it would help him to get his a little bit easier and quicker but nope 14 months later he finally received it. He said that they told him it would be easier next time...

    Nosler Accubond

    I just loaded up some 150 gr for my 7 STW and some 200 gr for my 300 RUM. I haven’t had a chance to try them out yet because of weather conditions. But it’s nice to hear that you guys are getting some good results from them. Getting more excited all the time.

    Subsonic .223

    Okay guys, maybe a silly question but where are you guys finding your info for your loads for your subsonics?? I do reload and have been for a while. But for the life of me I can’t find subsonic load data. Shooting an AR 10 sig sauer 308. Could really use the help.

    Getting ready to setup to reload and need some advice

    I don’t know what kinda money we’re talking about but I would purchase a reloading kit first. It’s going to have basically everything you need to get started except for powder bullets brass.etc. Lee is a good budget kit if you want. I have one, no problems no issues. Then a RCB little bit more...
