    Default reloading...

    or is it loading?
    started working on getting started......
    picked a 100 unprimed cases(45colt) and a case of cci primers up out at shyda's. just to play with the stuff and get some cases primed, need more stuff. does'nt take long to prime....and it's fun!
    going to talk to charlie about bp loads next. and it's time to find some bullets.

    not sure which is more fun now, loading or "unloading" the cases.........

    this is not going to save me any money at all,,,,,,,but i'm going to be doing alot more shooting.
    it's only metal, we can out think it....

    I finally found a place that has 55 gr .22 cal FMJ bullets, I ordered 3000 of those tonight, I picked up 500 pcs of new .45 brass the other night, and I have enough powder and primers here to load it all. ill be busy again for a little while. I plan on running into shydas again this week and pick up a couple of 8 lb jugs of powder to stock up on, you never know whats going to happen.

    Just be aware dantiff2 that Rainiers are copper plated bullets, not jacketed. I use them for practice ammo and only had one bullet in a box of 500+ that was deformed. They shipped a few extras in the box though, so I won't ding 'em on that!

    brian- Graf & Sons has some Speer 230 gr. TMJ in stock. His shipping is a flat $4.50. I just ordered 1000 Berry's bullets today from Graf & Sons.. They're also copper plated. They're generally a little bit cheaper than full metal jacketed bullets. I've reloaded over 1000 9mm with these, and have had zero issues with their quality!

    Hmmm another new sight to order from, I emailed them to see if my C&R will get me there dealer discount, it looks like they might take it. gref & sons looks like they have some good deals and you cant beat the shipping. Im going to order another 2000 .22 cal FMJ BT bullets from them just waiting to hear back if thell give me a discount.

    Best deal on 150gr .308? Large scale bulk? Like 5K+ projectiles?

    We're going to give the UPS men hernias!

    Frosty, They have their bulk bullets priced in 2K lots. They might be able to do better if you contact them, I'm not sure.
