At coffee this morning a couple guys were making comments about "hoarding" and high prices and how stupid I was to purchase powder yesterday for $35...
Can anyone wrap their brain around this change that is taking place? I can not understand nor condone any of it. Take a look at what type of folks...

With a "break open" gun the chance of loose primer issues is minimal, its with the semi-auto's and sometimes the pump guns the issue arises. Never...

A shooter in Ca first informed me of the tool, I was about to purchase a new primer punch from MEC and did a price comparison, MEC was $26 for the...
After loading and firing 3 flats of shells with the GM3 powder I find no problems.... The big plus is that the powder is available. Larry
I find that using this tool extends the life of any hull I use...... not exactly sure why but I wonder if it not because of the combination of the...
Several years ago I made a change to the Vectan AS powder, clean and metered well and worked in the wide temperature spread here. It is not...
