Does anyone have anything reloading related that I can do a pictorial how to infomercial about? I will have some free time next week and will be bored out of my skull.

I might...and I mean might be interested in reloading for 9mm luger ammo....Originally posted by Rustyshakelford View Post
I usually just buy Winchester FMJ rounds for range practice, and it's relatively inexpensive....but....I trade off a lot of spent brass...would it be worth my while (at about 200 rnds/mnth) for me to reload?
I'm talking expense for setup, and supplies....
Also....what field-expedient gear, if any, is available for reloading the 9mm?"I Have Sworn Upon the Altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." -Thomas Jefferson

Good news. You do not have to buy a new reloading manual. 9mm is covered in just about every manual out there. Buy a used one online or from a book store. When you get it, let me know.Comment

[QUOTE=Rustyshakelford;2679]M-1's spit brass everywhere.
This is off the topic of reloading, but on the topic of M1 brass flinging.
When I have mine clean and greased properly it seems every case drops nearly in the same place. Usually at one o'clock and about ten feet out. When it starts to vary from there I take some cotton swabs clean up the bolt slots and lightly regrease. However, I did find early on with my M1 that it needs grease... not oil, not CLP, it likes good grease. I found my M1As like this treatment too! I use grease on the bolt rollers and everything associated with the bolt moving back and forth and light CLP on other components. Has anyone else found this to be true?

Mil-surp brass reloading?
Rusty,Originally posted by Rustyshakelford View Post
first thanks for sharing your knowledge. I'm starting out reloading and have been doing it successfully with my hetero life partner in .308 and .270. It's been loads of fun so far (pun, while not intended seems to fit... take it for what it is!) Anyway, I have lots and lots and lots of milsurp 7.62x51... I cleaned some up and inspected and I kind of like it... it good brass, I think it's heavier than some of the commercial ... but I broke the tip off of my primer remover (not sure of the technical term) and when reading up a little bit about it found that the milsurp stuff has crimped primers... I have a Dillon Super Swage on the way to me now. Can you give me some more info on reloading the military brass? Do I need to roll crimp the primers? is there special primers or some that work better than others? I have a lot of 5.56x45 brass now too and a lot of it is milsurp... I'm going to be relaoding that at some point as well... will the Super Swage accommodate those as well? Let me know what you think
Thanks

Wanna try reloading on the cheap? Complete Lee Anniversary kit for under $100 at most supply houses. (less dies). I bought one last month...haven't loaded the first shell yet though...still making my bench. Bought pistol caliber dies in carbide. My son inherited a Lymon single stage press years ago, so I"m stting that up too.Comment
