Join in and feel free to ask question, LOTS of good advice here, but, take a class,and prepare to enjoyyour new found hobby. The more you shoot, the more you load, the more you...
Camped down there two winters ago with Boy Scouts for our winter rondevious.. Temp was -16 at the Bloomington airport that weekend. Be Prepared was never more true.

The guy I got the stuff off of must have been...
I dont recall seeing a thread about reloading shotgun shells. I got some stuff at a yard sale this summer and I picked up a press a couple of weeks ago. I have the RCBS book, so I have some text to read.
My question for the forum would be, what shells are worth picking up, if any? Recipes are...
