I know a few people out there reload ammo. I reload my 9mm with a Dillon Square Deal B that I have had for years. Who reloads and what do you reload?

I used to, sold it all to TRY to keep the house.

Some weekend I need to see your setup to reload my 357 mag ammo.

What calipers do you have?

(I know we've talked about this) LOL!

Hi
I reload 9mm and 45mm, have 2 lee 1000 presses. Maybe someday I'll have a Dillon... :cool2:
Use w-231 powder with both.
9mm, 16 grains, 115 gr round head bullet and 1.15 " lenght
Don't remember the 45 #'s

I've got some .40mm shells I've picked up if anyone needs them.

I got a RCBS single stage press that I do all my 50AE on for the Desert Eagle. It paid for its self a loooong time ago.

Currently running a single stage RCBS. Since I am a precision freak when it come to my ammo,I like to measure the shit out of everything and the single stage allows me to do it often. Later I might look into a prgressive.

I reload 40cal,.223/5.56,.308,30-40 Krag.
I run all Hornady Carbide zip spindle dies.

Lee Autoprime,Lee powder drop, and a bunch of other crap that I have picked up but havent got to use yet.

I tend to sweep everything off the floor at shooters when I am done. I have tons of .40 empties. My Dad reloads my .45s. I need to find someone to load up some .308, not alot, and mass quantities of .223/5.56!!

Ill take the brass,how much you want for it?


I have two sets of dies for .223/5.56mm. My old RCBS dies is for punching out rounds in the 2.30" COL range.My new Hornady Carbide dies and digital powder scale and good powder are for the rounds that I have set up for long range tack drivers in my AR. Only thing that slows me down is trimming the case after resize. I did just buy a Lee cutter that fits in a drill,we will see how it works.

Depends on what your after.

If your wanting to stack shots at 200 yards then that would require alot of measuring and setting up a die to work with just your rifle. And on top of a custom round,it may not be loadable into a standard AR mag. If its a bolt action no big deal,but by the sound of it you have an AR.

If you want some thing that will make holes and be faily accurate, then I can set the die to a standard at say around 2.20"-2.30" COL then it would be cheaper.
