I have a question, will you answer it?

[eventer289]

@saj12100 Ask away.

[dwaynenkerri]

your method is almost right but im 31 and me n my dad has done this my whole time here on earth your doing some things that is very dangerous and to the 308 thing a bigger grain bullet in ether gun 308 or 30-06 is useless all you need is a 168 to kill anything

[eventer289]

@dwaynenkerri Would you mind elaborating as to what you mean is dangerous? Additionally, I don't believe a 30-06 is sufficient to take down some very large game such as an elephant.

[BrutexxForce]

do you need to compact the powder? or anything like that?

Awsome video, i saw the kit for like $25, thanks for the vid.

[eventer289]

@BrutexxForce No, it doesn't take up all the room in the case. If you shake the casing, you can hear the powder.

[donthebodyguard]

What kind of scale are you using?

[kaianuanu]

That last tip about customizing the seating depth to your rifle's chaber was very helpful

[TheVibroplex]

great vid i too am new to this reloading . i have a 270 win witch is a neck dowm 30-06 what i would like to know is do you get your seating depth from the bullet manufactor or the powder manufactor ... this is what i have for bullets 130GR Nosler boat tail ballistic tips (yellow) color coded i have most of the stuff i need to start but a scale and powder funnel :-) my OAL is 3.340 my case OAL 2.540

[FLBGAMES]

Whats the point of crimping? i thought that was just for pistol loads so they feed easier? i just started reloading just got to get some powder, scale, calipers, and primers and ill be good to go

@boboelmo I went ant bought some supplies today at Scheel's across the street from where I work and I calculated the cost at $.37 a round for primer, powder and bullet. (I already have a bunch of leftover brass casings from before so I didn't include that in the price.)

@dwaynenkerri

Very intelligent comment.

[TravisLisonbee]

I have to let everyone know a few things about reloading, Don't and I do mean don't go over what a reloading manual's speck's say for a particular powder and bullet combination, it takes very little powder to produce more pressure than some guns can handle. And don't apply too much pressure to the primer, don't force things along it won't end well.

[boboelmo]

how much money do you save by reloading? i know a 20-round box of .30-06 can cost $18-40 depending on the brand, making cost per round about $.90 to $2. What would you say the average cost per round is for reloading?
