    Actually not too bad compared to buying online. Add hazmat and regular shipping and your up to $125 with tax.

    Check out American Reloading in Phoenix. They have some primers in stock and include hazmat / shipping in the price. I have bought bullets and primers from them, they are not a scam.

    Agree American Reloading is a solid company. I have ordered from them many times and have an order in route from them right now.

    I remember when I had to unload some rounds I made. I was a little nervous pounding a hammer looking tool using kinect energy to pull the bullet from the case.

    After a lifetime of reloading and having to pull ammo apart for different reasons I don't think I will ever go back to a puller like that. A press mounted puller, I use a Hornady brand puller, is fast, easy, and quiet. Along with it doesn't make a mess trying to separate the components. They cost more since you need different collects for the different calibers but are well worth it in my experience.

    A friend is converting a bunch of 308 to 8.6blk. Trying my hand at neck turning using an RCBS tool. I turned 3 cases by hand and they came out okay but I couldn't do more because my hands hurt after 3 cases. I strapped a lee case holder in my drill and tried running a few through that way and it worked great. But now it looks.like the inside of the necks are screwed up. Not sure what's going on...

    Any of you guys neck turn?

    The Hornady neck turner is what I have been using for my .22br, 6ppc, 6.5, and 30br. Makes neck turning easier and consistent. Just put in the proper mandrel, set your length, and I set the cutter with an automotive feeler gauge.

    Prepping some 6mm creedmoor cases, got them in the tumbler now. Gonna load them up with some H4350 and 115 grain coated DTAC’s. Leaving for South Texas early Thursday for a couple days of hunting, drinking, shooting, and telling lies! At least one day, between hunts, we all try to out shoot each other, and I’m hoping my new 6mm bullet slanger will hold its own!
