  1. How to KILL Disable a Primer

    You don’t even have to do all that…..just put a single drop of oil (machine oil, wd40, motor oil, any oil will work.) in the primer cup and it is done ! Don’t believe me ?? Try it …. Put a drop of oil in it and smack it with a hammer !! It will NOT detonate ! lol
  2. How to KILL Disable a Primer

    Guys …. This isn’t rocket science or surgery !! A DROP OF OIL WILL DISABLE A PRIMER !! :doh:
  3. How to KILL Disable a Primer

    A drop of oil will kill it
  4. How many primers do you have on-hand

    Yeah, I need to stock up some more. Primers are the one thing I am definitely low on. Need those lg and sm pistol primers and magnum primers too. I don’t shoot much rifle, mostly revolver but some semi-auto handgun stuff. But it is good to keep 20-30k of the rifle rounds on hand for each...
  5. On the cheap.. Lee Loader 38sp 357mag . Have you used one?

    Oh hell yeah I do too ! I never saw him use them of course…. I remember loading with him even from my childhood ! Lol….he was always loading, shooting, working or sitting in his chair working a crossword while watching the news !
  6. On the cheap.. Lee Loader 38sp 357mag . Have you used one?

    I agree with @BIKER13 - good for a back up. I have quite a few from my father . He had a bunch of them in different calibers, among his stuff from the old days. So I just stuck them in the back of a closet among other stuff I will probably never use but keep for just in case. I’m not sure...
  7. Powder age

    I have powders from the 60’s that my dad gave me….perfectly fine. Stored properly those powders will outlast us from what I have been told.
  8. Buying Reloaded Ammo?

    I have been loading as long as I remember. I was taught with my father when I was young and have loaded uncountable numbers of rounds. All that being said, I do not load for anyone and nobody except my immediate family and maybe a couple real close friends shoot any of my reloads. That would...
  9. I got a problem but I have never run into before and I am baffled. I need help PLEASE!

    Some of that brass may be a problem it seems. Sounds like it may not be worth the extra hassle. (Sometimes the ‘savings’ aren’t really a saving process.) I only load pistol/handgun rounds ….. but I am just going to stick with my current, tried and true process that I have always used. Good...
  10. Big bore cartridges and reloading

    You also must consider the cost of the equipment if you aren’t already set up.
  11. Big bore cartridges and reloading

    It all depends on how much you shoot. if you just want to load a few rounds for hunting, it’s not economical unless the ammo you seek is hard to come by. If you are like most folks that load, shoot every week - several hundred at a time, then yes it is economically viable. I was raised...
  12. Slug casting and reloading

    Good looking casts ! My father taught me years ago to cast , just about all I shoot I cast and load myself. 90%+ of it is handgun loads though. Everything from .32spcl to .454 Casull rounds I have about 75+ molds from my father, (mostly steel and oldie but goodies !! )… and about 30 I...
  13. I am officially at a standstill as of 30 min. ago

    It has gotten so damned ridiculous lately it ain’t even funny ! These SOBs are certainly loosing all sense of right and wrong ! I am at a loss for putting up with the knuckleheads sometimes….makes you want to - ( well, I will just stop there…probably end up on some list if I ain’t already ! )
  14. I just got off the phone with the Tech Rep. at IMR powders.

    Yeah, no kidding ! Those were the good ole days for damned sure ! Can’t even get a brick of primers for under that now ! Lol
  15. I just got off the phone with the Tech Rep. at IMR powders.

    We shot almost all our own reloads for as long as I remember. Now stuff we didn’t load, of course, we bought. Like .22lr….some rifle rounds, stuff we didn’t shoot much of too we just bought or traded for. But yeah, it was what we were taught and the most cost effective way. When we were...
  16. I just got off the phone with the Tech Rep. at IMR powders.

    I load all my handgun ammo , except the rimfire of course. Not too many rifle rounds, I just don’t shoot as much rifle. I was lucky my father taught me a lot and passed a good bit of info and equipment off to me ! He also taught me to cast and gave me a bunch of molds for pistol caliber bullets.
  17. I just got off the phone with the Tech Rep. at IMR powders.

    No experience with that one . Interested to find out. Please post findings ….. ?? Thanks !
  18. A question for you veteran Reloaders

    Hell yes they work great on pistol brass ! I wouldn’t use anything else. Rifle rounds I can’t attest to, I don’t shoot as much so I don’t load rifle rounds. ( Been hand loading for 40yrs )
  19. Just waiting on RMR projectiles.

    I like casting my projectiles for all of those. I have a pretty large collection of molds
  20. Just waiting on RMR projectiles.

    I do pretty much all the pistol rounds. Of course that’s about all I like to shoot anyway. .44 mag &spcl, .357 & .38, .41mag, .45 Colt ….. all that stuff . Been at it ever since I could remember. Dad taught me and we always shot our own ammo. About the only things I buy are .22 and rifle...
