Hello guys, I am looking for a 9mm Redding Competition seater die with the micrometer adjustment and alignment sleeve in good shape. I am also interested in a Redding 9mm Taper Crimp die, and...

I will take the Ohaus scale assuming it's complete. PM to follow.

Hey Beagle, thanks for the offer but I had another source offer to sell a larger quantity at once. So I'm not really in need at the moment unless something changes. I will have to see how many of...

I am interested in buying a few thousand rounds of nickel 9mm brass if anyone has some once-fired they'd like to get rid of for a reasonable price.
I am wanting to load up some good hollow points...
I don't have the data to watch those youtube videos at the moment but if they are the same ones I believe I've watched before it was just a test of corrosion resistance on plates of metal over time? ...

I don't have an M1 yet and am curious if these heavier greases gum the gun up in freezing temps? I'd imagine so but if not I'd continue to run what works for you.
That said I'd probably try out...

It could possibly be to destabilize the bullet and induce yaw upon impact? It seems like I've read of something similar before but I could be wrong and it may do nothing. I'd have to do some...

I imagine this is almost as good as the press mounted Auto-Prime II and a good option for the money for those that don't want to wait to find a used Auto-Prime II. I did a lot of research on those...

I've thought the same thing but the spring works great in the Forster and Redding dies. Unless you was talking to someone else. I have read a couple people adding springs to their Hornady dies with...

In my experience that did work quite well but never got 100% of the water out quite that fast. But I imagine if you did that with a smaller batch of brass it may be that quick. The rotary sifter I...

This makes me really want an older beam scale. My only experience with them has been the cheaper Lee ones which I don't like and the newer style Redding I believe No2 model that was sitting in my...
The Lee works well for me on the larger cases like this as others have mentioned. But as far as the tool handle itself the Lyman tool you pick up for about $25 that is orange in color and includes a...
I've just had my first experience with the new Lee lock rings and overall am very happy they released them. I know that is not exactly what the OP is posting about but I also ordered one of the...

At American Reloading the price doesn't reflect the 15% discount you add after it's in your cart. At the moment it says the 16 pound ones are sold out which are $280 but after 15% discount that...

Actually the 5.56 military brass will hold more powder then 223 brass on average. At least that is the case for Lake City 5.56 over standard 223 loads. But for 7.62x51 it is the opposite and the...
I also see your from WV, what part of the state are you from if you don't mind me asking?
Good to know, I haven't been keeping track of it but thanks for the heads up. I don't use it much since I started using the CherryBalmz but have been meaning to pick up a big tub of it to keep on...
For jigs the best is probably the 5d Pro jig but most of the newer router jigs like the Easy Jig Gen 2 etc. should be good. The only thing I don't like about them is how large it cuts the trigger...
The original twist rate was actually 1-14 in the M16 but was quickly changed to 1-12 due to the 1-14 being on the edge of stability and causing issues in arctic testing. The 1-12 was in service...
I haven't read all of the posts on this thread but will give my input and experiences since I have tried many types over the years.
My take is all regular gun oils, and synthetic engine oil works...

There's nothing more cherished then inherited guns like that from good friends and family. What type of AK is it? I used to be really interested in AK's when the parts kits were dirt cheap but grew...

Same for me, I have always wanted an M1 and back when I was buying surplus guns years ago for $50-100 the $500-800 price point always kept me away since I could buy nearly a dozen Mosins, Mausers,...
