You can do that, but if you bought your old items at pre-Biden prices, you might find inflation has outpaced any savings you could kept by hauling those items. Especially when speaking of appliances,...

We have been puzzling over how to move our 4 BR house and my garage/ FFL business. We got quotes on various methods;PODS, moving companies who do it all, and those who do everything but packing....

I tried annealing with glass beads and a Lee pot. Total waste of time- the glass beads never got warmer than 580 degrees F in that Lee pot.
Having ordered an E.P. 2.0 annealer, I dont see myself...

That's an excellent result for case forming to that degree!

.33 WCF from .45-70 was difficult due to the mid-case step which formed in the sizing process
9.x64 from .375 H&H- had to turn the belt off before sizing, but they worked!

I used Kroil for years, but have switched to Rem Oil and Birchwood Casey Barricade. I will wipe down exposed metal and store in the safe. My safes contain dehumidifiers and a large rag saturated with...

When I was in your spot, I bought a Redding Turret press and haven't looked back. Of course, its no Dillon but I can put 7 dies on each turret and spin the turret quickly to select the die I need....

I am the other way round on shipping companies. Time and again FedEx and USPS have lost, delayed, mishandled or destroyed shipments. My business model requires reliable shipping of firearms, ammo,...

Okay, fellas. Time to stop the hand wringing. While it is true that DOJ sent the carriers a letter asking about their volume and policies regarding firearms, the current internet/ YouTube hysteria is...

You did a much better job of addressing my concerns than I!
Thank you for your drawings and explanation. I have ordered a .375 M die thinking I would turn down the stem to .367". I have yet to...
Forum: Reloading Equipment
Could well be. Thank you, I may give these a try. I need a .367 expander and no one except NOE seems to know that 9.3mm rifles even exist.
Forum: Reloading Equipment
I looked at the NOE selection and while they appear to be precision made, and certainly provide a variety of sizes, the length seems to be insufficient. In practice, a case neck needs to accommodate...

I thought about getting an old square body Chevy or GMC, but THOSE prices are extremely high as well. I eventually bought an '84 C20 that needs work. I figure I will keep maintaining my 2003 GMC. The...
