If you’re like me, as soon as you get a new rifle, you start to anticipate reloading for it. There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of seeing your groups shrink after careful planning and successive batches of reloads. For most of us, there’s a particular rifle cartridge that we tend to reload most frequently. Which […]
In this third installment of the Frankenlöder 9mm Dillon+Hornady+RCBS series, we’ll build on what we talked about in the first post and second post. We’ve seen what it takes to setup the Dillon XL-650 with Hornady 9mm dies, and also modified the drop tube from the RCBS Pistol Bullet Feed kit in order to get […]
Hello all- I wanted to let you know about a project that I’m working on. My first eBook! That’s right- in conjunction with Northwest Gun Magazine, I’m putting together a 45 ACP reloading guide book.

The cool thing about it is that you can choose what parts of the pistol are visible, and even toggle some to […]
A while back I was doing some cleaning in my crawl space, and found this old beer can under the visqueen. I immediately though to myself – hmmm, construction workers haven’t changed at all in the last 50 years. I had the mental picture of the guys back in 1960 finishing a hard day’s labor […]
