    Spent the last 3 years gathering equipment/components to get into reloading. A lot of time locating because of scarcity. A lot of cash delved because of scarcity. Just totally relieved that I'm still into it and really enjoy it after how difficult it was lol!

      Oh yeah it's a super fun Hobbie, we are all feeling the supply shortage especially primers right now.

    Readers must understand that max COAL is for magazines not single load as the mags. are only so long.
    My bolt action feeds 2.900 + but I hand load each cartridge every time.

    Really thorough and in a fashion that definitely works. New to reloading, got a hornady Ap. looking to reload 9mm, 44/357.
    Have you done an instructional yet on AP presses. Thanx again. Don

      Thank you for your support.I have not done any videos on a progressive press yet. Mainly because I've had a really hard time getting small rifle primers so I haven't been able to load .223 in large volumes. With that being said I do reload .357 and 9mm so I will plan on making a progressive press video for one of those calibers.

    Also should mention that you set the die with the shell holder in the press

    I purchased 500 pre primed 30-30 brass that was not resized . How can I resize these primed cases ? Thanks

    • @hinshawshowto
      @hinshawshowto  Před rokem

      Okay all you have to do is pull the decaping pin out, leave the expander ball . Now set up your resizing die as usual. Use a dry lube like Hornady one shot so you don't have to clean the brass and resize them as usual. I recommend wearing safety glasses and gloves just in case but you shouldn't have an issue hope this helps if you have more questions don't hesitate to ask

      Also should add with decaping pin pulled out leave the expander ball rod backed out farther than usual because all that's doing now is expanding case neck now instead of punching out primers

    good informative video but you neglected the very 1st and most important step , the loading manual, this should be everyones first step, and READ IT DON'T JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES !!!

      Yes I suppose I should have mentioned that first, I did mention it later in the video but you are absolutely correct. Must follow book, not just listen to a stranger online because anybody could literally say anything they wanted.
