      Storage of powder and primer question

      I was reloading for a while about 6-7 years ago and stopped. I kept all my equipment and want to start again. My power and primers have been kept in an outside shed that is not humidity controlled. It is in the original containers and is kept in a plastic cabinet...not air tight. Wondering if...

      Had couple of squib rounds

      Hi all, I've been told and read that these are caused by no powder in the rounds. I go slow at reloading and can't see how this would happen. I wasn't distracted when reloading this batch. I will say that my powder and primers are a few years old and kept outside in the garage in a cabinet...

      SW40VE Jamming

      Hi all, I was shooting some reloaded ammo last weekend. Shot about 110 rounds no problem then started jamming on me bad. I couldn't get the ammo out of the chamber, had to call one of the guys from the front desk to give me a hand. He couldn't get it at first. He let it cool down a bit and...

      Not getting consistent grains

      I'm using Lee products, auto disk adjustable charge bar and a digital scale. I haven't reloaded in awhile and getting back into it and forgot this is a pain in the butt! For example, if I'm trying to get 4.8 I'll get a couple of charges that are 4.8 then it'll go from 4.6-4.9 the next few pulls...

      Brass weight

      Got my digital scale in and thought I'd try it out. Have a question about the weight of the brass. I'm loading 38sp and noticed that most of the brass weighed different so when trying to get my grains correct I had to weigh each brass and zero out the scale first then load the powder then weigh...

      Lee powder scale

      Trying to load powder for the first time. I've read all the instructions for the scale and for the lee powder dispenser, have the discs but also bought the Lee adjustable charge bar. I zero out the scale but I cannot get a measure with the scale. I used the disc and the charge bar but the scale...

      Finally getting started!

      Finally getting everything put together and trying to make sure I have a good crimp. Looking for a light roll crimp on a .38 special. Do either of these look ok?

      Questions on the different types of bullets

      Hello, I am finally getting around to setting up my press and looking at the different bullets that are out there. I have a S&W.38. I am finding some online that are HP XTP and FP XTP from one company that also has some powder and primers that I want to get. Is there a different between HP and...

      Bad timing for reloading

      I think I picked a wrong time to start reloading. I wanted to start a few months back and put it off until a couple of weeks ago. I got all my equipment now to find small pistol primers...good luck. Everywhere I've checked is out. Some of you have been thru this before with everyone buying...

      Gun Show tomorrow?

      I need some primers, powder and a couple other little things to start reloading. Was going to gun show tomorrow but wondering if I should just buy from the local shop here. Hearing that prices are very high all over right now....if they will have anything at all. Worth the trip? Thanks Sherry
