Everything about Reloading.

[ucm931]

It seems like everything reloading-wise is in short supply. Look to your smaller reloading shops near you. All the big box stores like Cabela's, Bass Pro, etc around here are flat sold out of EVERYTHING. I've got a small reloading shop here in the area that still has powder, primers, and projectiles, but you'll pay a little bit more for it.

I would give them your business as long as they are honest.

Oh, I did, and I do. I'd rather support the little guy anyway. Just wanted him to know my observations.

These guys are great to deal with and a small time shop https://www.bluecollarreloading.com/ they’ll be getting my business next time I order bullets or brass

Anyone in here have a #16 shell plate for a Hornady progressive they aren’t using and would be willing to sell? Long shot, I know.

What’s everyone loading for Blackout. I haven’t loaded for it yet, but picked up some Hornady 190gr sub-x bullets. Might pick up some 220gr Bergers or ELD-X bullets as well.

I haven’t jumped into the blackout game yet, it’s on my short list.

I don’t have 1680. I do have CFE BLK and Lil Gun I should be able to work up a decent load.

The Hodgdon website is your friend.

The 1680 runs dirty but gives great velocity consistency in subs. The H110 behind 147 gr military pulls and Barnes black tips give highest velocities. 4227 and 147 pulls are great range fun.
Some folks dismiss the 300BLK as a low power novelty round. At short range the hard cast 240 subs hit like a 44mag and routinely go through telephone poles. Loaded hot with black tips good for ground hog to deer. Cartridge is not a long range shooter. A police dept in my area looked at 10.5" supressed 30BLK for their cruiser rifles. All the officers loved the guns but a bureaucrat nixed it because of the supressor. They still have AR-15s in 223
