United States
Registrace 16. 10. 2011
We live on 30 acres in western Ohio that is part of the original homestead my family started in 1866.
The area was originally Swiss Mennonite and those values are still prominent in the area today.
The house was built by my great-great grandfather. The farm and buildings have been neglected for at least 50 years so we have a lot of work ahead of us. We garden, raise chickens and I have been growing and selecting a variety of Indian corn for 20 years.
I am going to offer as much value as possible in the areas of Prepping, Survival, Homesteading, Hunting, Trapping and maybe even Christian Doctrine.
Follow along as we try to remake our homestead into a thriving place where we can help others in need.

Winter storm coming in and our driveway is already drifted. Can I make it down the 1/3 mile driveway? You can't really tell how sideways I was getting thrown. My drive home from work gets interesting.

The Right Way to Invest in Silver Coins
Thanks for making me save $80 on a 12 gauge reloader! Ridiculous! Thank u so much sir!
Remember that it does not resize the brass or crimp well...so it is more suited for a single shot or emergency back-up reloading
I bought a 12 ga Lee loader in the 80s Nothing wrong with it to this day - Very simplt in concept. I use a roll crimper that I bought recently. That was a good investment
Brilliant,Can you do this for a 38 spl as well?
Not with this setup...Or maybe with modification...but you would be loading probably low powered rounds
Excellent video, Thank you! Do you have one on the actual reloading of 410?
What a waste of time. Ridiculous. Cheers!
Thanks for your opinion.
Hi there Goog information happy day be safe god bless. Happy holidays to all.
I can make shotgun reloads with the lee hand press??
Better than my MEC reloaders! 😂😂😂 Good Video Brother!
Excellent, thanks.
Use my reloader for my 357 my 270 my 30/30

I've bought similair one 161cc. Happy so far. Thanks czcams.com/video/IdDbQoZ2Q3Q/video.html
The line that you have under the 2 long pieces of line is supposed to be above not below according to the owners manual.
I found that the line breaks less like this at least on this machine... others may have different results
I prefer the strands pointing down under the loop because it keeps the strands in a better downward position in tough stuff like our thicket
I agree completely with what you're saying. Though what really bothers me is how they think about those guns. I don't mind people having "black rifles" or the gear associated with them. (I particularly think armor is a good investment) Knowing self defense tactics is useful too. To a point....The problem is a lot of them are thinking like they're military and have the military industrial complex backing them. In an environment with little to no medical care, fewer antibiotics, and little chances of survival if you get any but the most superficial wound. Even worse, most "tacticool" training is based of military and/or police training. We're civilians, we don't have the same mission the military or police do. Plus, we can't call in air strikes, mortar shells, drones, etc. Plus, we have no sure resupply. Possibly ever. We simply can't afford to wander around wasting ammo like the US military can. I don't care how many rounds you have stored. You got no guarantee of ever getting more. When this sinks in it will change your perspective. Learning tactics is fine, but, you have to adapt them to your situation and your needs as a civilian. That's what I'm not seeing happen.
I say again, I'm not against you having anything you want and can afford. All laws are infringement. If you need it, get it.
Very cool stuff! I imagine those barrels are worth some money. People collect stuff like that.
Mate you need a ride on mower of some sort for that area. I’d be using a tractor with a mower deck
Nice! You could make a hole with the exact size of the shell, then turn your wooden cube upside down and, through the other side, press with the rod to finish your "star close" to it. The tight fit will keep the shell in shape.
Your plant died.....🙂
RIP plant!
Miraculous! Bro omg wow.
You knew you were making a video. This wasnt some surprise that someone sprung on you like they showed up with a camera when you were going to explain all this .. WHY NOT TIDY UP? Prepared for anything but cleaning your house
I'm sorry if your feelings were harmed by the content of this video...In the future I will try to be more cognizant of sensitive people. Thank you for pointing out my shortcomings and making the effort to tell me about them.
@@thepreparedchristian3147 it's not an offense to me, it's you who the sty should bother.
There has been lots of pieces of wood in the potting soil the past few years. It is very frustrating to have to deal with. All of it has it. Bacto, miracle grow, even pro mix has been having more than I like to deal with.
My first reloading was done with a Lee Loader in .32 ACP -- which I got before I realized what a PITA it was going to be to pick up small caliber semi-auto cases (the gun throws them, usually over your shoulder). Easy to use, but in '79 it wasn't that easy to find correct bullets; I wound up using (slightly undersize) .308 100 gr. half-jacket "Plinker" bullets, which due to the soft lead nose didn't feed perfectly in my pistol. Most recently, I've used a Lee Hand Press -- costs a bit more than a Lee Loader, but it's easier to get good-looking, confidence-inspiring rounds (and quicker, especially with rifle ammunition).

Watching old Doug & Stacy clips & they gave a shout out to follow you. Since I'm a Christian & brand new to getting ready to homestead, you look like a good match. Following you now.
I didn't know that...do you knw which video it was?
Good job
G'Ay from Australia, This is brilliantly simple and cheap. I used to load blank 12gauge shells with black powder for reenacting in a similar way but all the bits and pieces were loose not together and compact like your version. I'll make up one of these setups for the single shot 410 shotgun that I'm in the process of buying. Thanks for uploading this video. Cheers, Steve
Too many ads
You've missed an important step: resizing the brass. Good luck getting that "reload" to chamber.
They work just fine for the single shot they are intended for...
I thought the risize were needed only in case you use shells in different guns. 🤔 Because the deformation will still fit if you use it always in the same gun.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having to move but I can relate. I've had some health problems of my own as of late. God bless you my friend. 🙏
So sorry man prayers 🙏 💙 ❤
Aw man, I'm so sorry to hear this. I knew you had been kinda quiet lately. Last time I talked to the Judge he said he was okay but I have a feeling his health is not as good as it was.
I am sorry to hear this, I hope you and your family will be safe during these unpredictable times.
Dude you got the line in it all wrong
That ammo wont run thru a automatic 410. I just loaded 10 boxes 3 inch in 4, 5 ,6.for squirrel hunting. I got a mec 600 jr mark 5 410 3. I didnt give alot for my loader. On the hot days i load ammo.
Pretty sure I mentioned that... love the little 410
@@thepreparedchristian3147 i have 2 410's i turkey hunt with. Mossberg SA 410ga TSS turkey. Mossberg 500 410 TSS turkey. Both have reflex red dots on them. I order a IC choke. I never killed a deer with a 410 slug. Going to try this fall.
Thanks for the demo! Just bought one in a garage sale.
I'm thinking of machining up some sort of setup to reload my 410 shells. And building my 45 long colt press. Thanks for the video.
This is almost a step up from the Lee field loader 🤔 With the survival loaders, they seem to have the dowel, ontop of the primer, inside the shells. (If it goes of with the standard Lee, it will launch the pressure at your hand, and launch the dowel) But with this, it looks a bit safer. Since if a primer popped, your hand isn't directly in front the blast zone therefore much less likely to end up with a dowel in the hand. I deffenitly see some advantages to this version over the classic store bought version.
That is a good point...this is intended for when you have nothing else but still have components available...it will put food on the table.
I found one under my house I can't figure out a way to get to it. Please help its a 4 square in the middle of cotton fields
Thank you for your wisdom. I will put this into use. 🙏
Man thats prob cold 🥶
I'm having that problem now with two of my neighbors. I almost shot their dog on two different occasions. Their dog was on my property and acting aggressive. They are lucky that they still have a dog.
Best machine I have ever had. ❤️ thanks for this demonstration you allowed it to shine.
Ok how do you resize the lower brass of the hull not case or brass casing .
You don't... this is not recommended for higher power loads...I think I said something about not feeding because of that as well....This works good for single shots to feed yourself on the cheap.
I remember my grandfather reloading shotgun shells with setup like this. He used to seal ends with candle wax which seemed a tad dangerous even for 10 year old me at the time haha. Market man will always want to sell you the latest and greatest but sometimes old tricks like this are worth more than basket full of new ones.
A endmill bit would give a flat base in the hole and stop the shell case from rocking in the hole, just a observation. Great information thank you for sharing.
Good advice! Thanks for sharing!
Got that right.
Darn straight Skippy. Their pet is their responsibility and protecting your livelihood is your responsibility. It's on them if they don't take keep their pets and other critters on their land. Hope you are well and you & your family has a wonderful Christmas.
