A 160 grain bullet cast from range lead & fired from a 357 magnum at approximately 1250 fps. The 3 bullets made contact with a hardened steel plate a 50 yards.

Today I come to you with sad news, my best friend and brother in life past away 11/21/23. He had a fight with cancer that he lost, it’ll be hard. My email box was always full with all the things we were working on and all the hours on the phone and video calls. I’ll […]

A CLASSIC LEGEND REVISITED The Browning A-Bolt .22 Rimfire was manufactured from 1986-1996 in two calibers 22LR and 22Magnum and two different versions Grade I and Gold Medallion. As a youngster my lack of knowledge, untrained eye and lack of funds always caused me to look past Browning. As I have come to appreciate quality […]

A buddy of mine approached me after reading and seeing the info I posted online about getting the Taurus M44 44 Magnum to 1000 rounds. I knew it was not going, or shall I say I expected it not to be the greatest of conversations because it started like, “Please take no offense,” (which means […]

FIRST TIME WITH IRON SIGHTS IN 20 YEARS Got my hands on a Winchester Model 52C and the first thing I wanted to do was put a scope on it. With blurry up close vision it was just a natural reaction not to mention having used optics for so long now. Though being able to […]

Back in April I did some horse trading at a gun show and acquired my first revolver, a used Polymer Taurus Judge. I picked up some Hornady factory ammo to be able to go out and shoot it that day, as well as picking up some plated projectiles and Winchester AutoComp powder at the local […]

Taurus Judge Public Defender Polymer 45 Colt Load Experimentation At the range I started off with the 5 rounds of AutoComp with the cover cards I spoke of in the last post. I cut the cover cards with this little paper punch found on Amazon. I was hoping for a marked improvement. This was achieved, […]

I recently acquired my first revolver, a Taurus Judge Public Defender Polymer in 45 Colt/.410. At the same time I purchased some Hornady FTX Leverevolution cartridges so I could go to the range to play with my new toy.   A new caliber is a sickness, I quickly got around to buying dies and finding […]

Today I pose a question I would like you to think about. How much time do you have? I don’t mean the twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, we all have. No, not 168 hours a week. I mean how much time do you really have? Such as, how much time of […]

Did you know that The Reloaders Network has its own “social media” website? More than four years ago The Reloaders Network began as several folks from our community gathering together on a service called Slack. Since that time we have migrated to Discord, and that live discussion and chat is alive and well. You can […]

The Special Slug Wads for the Svarog Italian and Paradox 12 gauge slugs have been out of stock for several months, but I just received a very large shipment. There are new shotgun roll crimpers available. Crimpers for 10, 12, 16, 20, 28, and 410 gauge have been available, but that list has now grown […]

To build camaraderie and friendship over the internet is a blessing that I have enjoyed the last several years and I want to express my gratitude to all those who have been a part of that.

I took my wife, Lacey, to Double Barrel Ranch, just south of Spokane, WA. This was her first ever pheasant hunt. We did well, but to be honest we missed a couple birds. Either way, we had a blast and it was well worth the trip, we will definitely be going back.

I got started reloading so that I could shoot my Saiga 12 more. The main thing I wanted was cheap, good slugs. Since then I’ve cast many thousand Lee slugs, and loaded a few of the Lyman Diabolo. These were always a compromise, since they are not bore riders. They are good, and I don’t […]

I hate to post this, but please beware! This website is a total scam (RoyalFirearms)! They can be reached in a far middle eastern country at 702-670-2043. Better yet, go to the website and get the address, then take a minute to Google Earth it…… They are ripping people off! I called them and confronted […]

I sold my sons Stoeger and just bought him this new CZ 1012 to compete with in sporting clays this year, first match is in 2 weeks. We put 50 rounds of RIO 1oz #7.5 down the tube, brought it home to clean it up and found this issue. Additionally, the modified choke was nearly […]

I recently got myself a 3D printer, and one of my early projects to test it out was printing a primer inversion tray–maybe not the most glamorous project in the world, but certainly a useful accessory for reloading. Here is a video overview of the project

A brief update on where I've been and what's ahead...

I want to take time to thank each and every one of you for being a part of this! This has been a crazy and exciting few years.

I've finally bought a product that I have been watching for at least a year. The Tork Mag is a durable plastic mag with two springs in it that lets you put more rounds in a smaller package. They come in 50, 40, and 35 round capacities. This is a well made mag that is probably more reliable than a normal 30 round, not some gimmicky range toy. These are really well made mags that are theoretically immune to binding, and the pricing is remarkably reasonable.

I wanted to thank all the range fans for the support and encouragement you all have shown me over the past year. This year has been a rather difficult year for everyone, a year we all want to forget. I want all of you to know I appreciate you and wish you all a very […]
