Reloading BS thread

Final determination, 90 minutes and 2 hours are very close, and a good improvement over 1 hour.

 

The .243 cases I had in the tumbler but in a net bag cleaned up really nicely except about half of the case mouths are still dirty.

 

I’m taking some time today to get my stuff organized and put into an excel spreadsheet, I’m a bit surprised at my primer count, I need more projectiles though.

 

Anyone have an in stock source for some .40cal/ 10mm projectiles ? Or some they’d like to sell or trade ?

 

Cast or plated? At least one source online has cast boolits.

 

Any small rifle or small pistol primers around?

 

Best I can tell you is to check local gun forums and find a local supplier (non corporate company) who will put you on a list.
I have a local guy who supplies the local gun shops with their components and he has a list of people who want primers and as he gets stock he’ll work his way down the list, minimum quantity 1K.

 

I'm on every list I could get on no luck.

 

Plated or jacketed

 

I’ll keep an eye out.

 

I've had 3 people this week ask me if I could help them start up reloading. I told them sure. Go get some brass, bullets, primers, and powder and I'll set you up.
That should keep them away for awhile.

Bad thing is they are all related and know better.

 

I have bought from these two sources recently....no prob's-----GTG

inventory changes daily

Thanks all . I was striking out at all my normal sources . Ended up looking at cabelas , who I often overlook these days and found several thousand xtreme brand plated bullets . Enough to restock the shelf for now

 

That's what I use never a problem.

 

I use extreme all the time. They're go to go.

 

I got a random message request on IG today asking if I needed small rifle primers, after some talking I should* be getting 2K small rifle primers for $30/1K. If only the random messages on social media were this helpful.

 

There’s truly a Santa Clause


Merry Christmas to you !!!

 

Damn, I could use one of those random messages

 

Yep!!
Thanks, I’m excited about it, 2K wolf small rifle and 600 CCI small pistol primers for 78 dollars, not bad considering current prices.

Usually it’s just “you won, check my profile” or other BS, I think this guy happened across some comments I made on a reloading page and wanted to help me out, he said he sold his AR and doesn’t load for anything else that takes small rifle primers so he just wanted them gone to a good home.
