The 350 Legend is a new cartridge just launched by Winchester at the 2019 SHOT Show. This new cartridge is aimed a deer hunters in straight-wall cartridge hunting states.

UR Weekly Update: Win a Brass Smith Victory Press, Starline Brass Winner, and more!

It has been an insane week! I launched my weekly giveaways last week, got two presses, dealt with more snowfall (removal, etc), published some great stories, and started filming new defense content. It’s been exciting! Starline Brass Winner from Last Week Congratulations to Jared Budzinski who won last week’s challenge for 250 pieces of rifle […]

Free Download: The Complete Starline 6.5 Creedmoor Cartridge Guide

6.5 Creedmoor has been perhaps the most talked about cartridge over the last few years. And it’s not hard to see why! This cartridge is very good for long range shooting, has taken PRS competitions by storm, and is a very good all-round medium-to-large game hunting cartridge. So when Starline approached me about putting together […]

TriggrCon 2017: KRISS Vector and Defiance DMK-22

Like something out of a dream- that’s the best way I can explain the Industry Range Day at TriggrCon 2017. Sensory overload, too much to see and experience (for one day), and fun on another scale. One such highlight during the event was visiting the KRISS booth. There I saw something I’d only seen online: […]

TriggrCon 2017: In-Motion Targets and Rifle Sticks

The shooting sports industry and community is a small world! While at TriggrCon 2017, I saw quite a few familiar local companies, one of which was In-Motion Targets. Talking with the guys at the In-Motion booth, we realized quickly that we knew some of the same people in the PNW PRS and general shooting circles. […]

Make Your Own Case Lube

Over the years, I’ve used quite a bit of spray lube for case sizing, most of the time Hornady One-Shot for pistol, and Dillon DCL for rifle. As my supply of Dillon DCL dwindled, I started looking at other options. Dillon DCL has worked well, but leaves a sticky residue that’s hard to wipe (or […]

.308 Tracer 7.62x39mm Reloads for the AK-47

What’s better than shooting your AK-47? Shooting your AK-47 with tracers! That’s what I’m going to cover in this post. If you haven’t already done so, you’ll want to get caught up with things by reading and watching the following resources I’ve published recently: Light Up the Sky: Reloading and Shooting .308 Tracers High-Performance 7.62x39mm […]

Century Arms N-PAP AK: Scope and Scope Mount

Spring is here, and it’s time to do some outside shooting, a LOT of outside shooting! Part of this season change for me is the opportunity to resume the AK and 7.62x39mm shooting/reloading project I kicked off before Winter. I’ve already gotten some rounds through my Century Arms N-PAP AK variant, and next I’m going […]

Reloading .357 SIG for the Glock 20

Wait a second, isn’t the Glock 20 chambered in 10mm Auto? What does .357 SIG have to do with the Glock 20 then? I’m glad you asked! The Glock 20 is awesome, but you can have even more fun with the “G20” with the addition of inexpensive drop-in barrels for different cartridges. With my Glock […]

Exclusive Look: Redding New Products for 2017

If you are a fan of Redding Reloading Equipment products as I am, you’re going to be excited when you read this post! Through some patient persistence, I was able to get the “first look” at Redding’s new product announcements for the 2017 calendar year and SHOT Show. The theme this year is dies, dies, […]

Merry Christmas 2016 from Ultimate Reloader

It’s been a great year, and I want to wish everyone out there a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS! I’m hoping that you are able to celebrate with friends and family, perhaps enjoy a walk in the snow, and hopefully get some great shooting/reloading presents! I’m feeling excited looking forward to the next year here on Ultimate […]

When Reloading Goes Wrong: Hornady Cam Lock Bullet Puller

I’m going to load a bunch of 9mm today! That was my plan, and I couldn’t wait to go shoot a bunch of the ammo with my Glock 17. Everything was going “great” until I noticed the powder level seemed to be getting higher as I was loading. “That just doesn’t look right” I thought. […]

LEE New Auto Prime Tool: Overview, Priming .223 and .308 Cases

Priming cases is one of the most important steps in the ammunition reloading process. It can also be the most frustrating! If you want to optimize your reloading workflow, it’s imperative that you have a priming setup that’s easy to use and performs up to your expectations. In this post, I’m going to show LEE’s […]

TC Compass Hands-On: From Unboxing to 600 Yards

For value-minded rifle buyers, there’s never been a better time than right now! Over the last 10 years, the “standard equipment” list of features and attributes for entry-level rifles has gotten better and better. If you told me 10 years ago that I’d be able to buy a rifle for $350-ish that was loaded with […]

Overview: Condor Double Rifle Case

You may be familiar with the “production” it can be to go rifle shooting. It may go something like this: plan your range day, get your gun cases out, open the safe and grab some rifles, pack the cases, load up the truck, drive to the range, take multiple trips to unload the truck, get […]

Come With Me To Pick Up My AK-47

I guess you could say it was predictable: Right after the 2016 shooting in Orlando Florida, politicians followed the typical knee-jerk “playbook” – we need to ban so-called assault rifles, right? Wrong. I’m a strong believer that restricting law-abiding citizens from buying guns as counter-productive and harmful. Just like “no gun signs” in buildings, businesses, parks, […]

RCBS Pro Chucker Priming System Update

I’ve been working with RCBS on some issues related to the priming system on the RCBS Pro Chucker (5 and 7) for a while now addressing issues where the primer slider can break. Today, I’m happy to announce that RCBS has replacement primer sliders available for all Pro Chucker owners that will address these issues! Here’s […]

.25-45 Sharps AR-15 Part 1: Kick-Off and Rifles Overview

I absolutely love the AR-15 rifle platform. The AR-15 is iconic and historic, it’s modular, it’s affordable, it’s compact and light weight, it’s fun to shoot- and it even looks cool! The AR-15 platform is also quite versatile- a great option for defense, target shooting and competition, and even varmint hunting. But what about big game […]

LEE Pistol Dies: Overview and Setup

My very first set of reloading dies were LEE 44 Magnum pistol dies that came with the LEE Pro-1000 press that I started out with. Since then, I’ve acquired many more sets of LEE dies ranging from 30-06 to 9mm to 45 ACP to 357 SIG and quite a few in between. LEE Pistol Dies […]

9mm Pocket Pistol Shootout: Kel-Tec PF-9 Versus Glock 43

Concealed carry is very much a personal thing. Each individual will have their own requirements and persuasions related to chambering/caliber, carry method, and budgetary constraints just to name a few! I’ve personally carried 1911s in 45 ACP, a snub-nose revolver in 38 Special, a sub-compact in 9mm, my Glock 20 in 10mm, a 6″ 357 […]
