    Fair price for reloading?

    A class 06 FFL and payment of the federal excise tax is required to engage in selling reloaded / remanufactured ammunition. Not a cop, but an FFL 01 and 06

    Should I add 338 to my hunting rifles?

    With load development and bullet choices, your .375 H&H, it will do the job just fine. My wife and I play around with a lot, (Those who know us know what a lot means!), of different calibers but use .375 H&H as well as .458 Win Mag for serious work. Antelope are the exception, We use 7x57 on...

    Rolling Shoulders

    I solved that problem by using this NOE Expander Plug in a LEE Universal Neck Expander Die. https://noebulletmolds.com/site/shop/expanders/expander-plug-rifle/309-x-305-exp-plug/ It works just like a Lyman "M" die, but it is available in a wide variety of sizes. Bullet run-out has been minimized...

    243 For Coyotes, What's A Good Load

    I am using Nosler 55 grain spitzers on top of IMR 8208. I find them to be extremely accurate out of all 3 of my .243 Winchester rifles and they perform spectacularly on Prairie Dogs and Coyotes. 345 yards is the farthest that I have used them, but everything was DRT.

    Making Primers?

    I have tried this and found it to be 100 percent reliable ignition when used in black powder cartridges, both rifle and handgun. The cartridges I used them in are: Handgun -> .32 S&W, .32 Colt New Police, .38 S&W, .45 Colt, Rifle -> .38-55, 11x60R Mauser, .45-70. I loaded 20 of each. I fired...

    Best Do It All Shotgun?

    I own 13 shotguns, but most of my shooting needs are done with 2 shotguns. the primary all-around gun is a light Turkish inertia 28 ga, 20" bbl. I load for it using Hodgdon Longshot to get 1300 fps with 3/4 oz and this is the only load I shoot. Shot size varies according to what I plan on...

    Do you wear hearing protection while hunting?

    I do not because I use a suppressor.
