Yo Wrongtarget ; Where were you 40 minutes ago when I was ordering .308 ?. I missed the .284 boat . I even scrolled through several pages of .284 how ever not far enough obviously !.

Thank You both for the posting . More thanks for the correct post .

Midway gets a steep price for shipping at $ 16.99 out to Kommyfornia .

Roger ; I've done it again , a sale on bullets and I'm buying More ?. I can't use or move all the ones I have now !. It's just a word sales , it's just a word sales , it's .

Shoot Straight Know Your Target . ...

Doc, I just got in on a group buy for more. It's an addiction.

What's the difference between the magnum cannalure and the standard cannalure. I know it probably has to do with the location on the bullet, but, in the pictures they both look the same.

Times must be tough out in California if that's your entire stash. I try to keep that much on hand for each cartridge I load for - you never know what's gonna happen.

I take the Mormon approach to stocking-up when it comes to reloading supplies.

Frank, I think that is very sensible. Don't get the Fire Marshall excited over all those 8# Jugs. roger

What's really bad is that we just moved into a rental house while we're building the new house and a bunch of my stuff is in storage.

Somewhere in there is about 14 lbs of Powder, and about 8,000 pistol bullets in .45 and 40 cal.

I also can't find a new Pacnor Supermatch 22.250 barrel,a stainless 22 rimfire barrel, a blued 243 barrel, a Choate ultimate sniper stock and a Dillon 550B reloading press.



I hate moving!

We all know what to expect though

I stocked up in the 90-s when lead was $8-$12
per box of a hundred, Still I cant pass up a modern age bargin.

Very neat and organized.....

A familiar sight I must say! Tell me again how cheap reloading is!

Shouldn't the primers be in a separate cabinet?

Any idea whether they're Hornady, Speer, or Sierra?

Frank ; At least yours are in a cabinet . Nice neat organized way to go . Kudo's on You .

All my projectiles are on the floor in cardboard boxes . Under lying rows are flat those on top rows are on end , so I can see what's what .
Every large cardboard box has a .224 .284 .308 .38 .44 , you get the picture .

When I'm loading what ever caliber and load those are up on the bench . Along with what powder I'm using . My powder sets in cardboard boxes inside cabinets ( most of it any way ).On those cabinet tops are my tumbler and shaker .

Any of you remember the line from the movie Jaws when Quint told Chief Brody " Wait till the taxidermy man see what I brung em ,He's going have a heartache !".

That's why the fire Marshal isn't allowed around here !.

Because in this county they require a " REAL MAGAZINE " . Which NO ONE CAN COMPLY WITH !. Local shops are limited to 1 lb. container sales !. At $ 25.00 plus per , OUCH !.

My dies are all on tool heads which are nicely neatly racked on shelfs around my loading bench along with shell plates in their boxes under them . Presses, scales ,tools , lube ,Etc. . My entire bench is Covered with with a special two sided tarp. One side nasty oily moisture repellent other moisture absorbing .

Left side of the L bench has #34 25lb bags of #4 - # 8 shot under it along with cases of different wads hulls and empty shot shell boxes .
Under my main loading bench ( cartridge side ) are 20mm rocket cans stacked , where all my primers are stored with desiccant gel packs inside each can . I have 7 of those cans full !.
In my loading room near my desk are all my cleaning supplies along with manuals weapons vices and cradles .


In my other shop I have full cases of ammo stacked ( away from everything else ). The other building next to my shop is my clean room and Lab .

Then my computer room which is in the house also in the Lab which is networked .

I'll be up front the ONLY reason mine are some what organized is because of last years fire storm scramble . It was a Cluster F king mess around here . So when I put everything back I decided to do it with purpose full though !.

Shoot Straight Know Your Target . ...

You mean the fire marshal would get upset if you have more then 75# of powder?? NOT ME, really NOT ME!

Sorry, no I don't, maybe someone can compare them to known bullets for ID.

For load development does it really matter .

For that price you can't go wrong , for match shooting well that's another ball game .

Shoot Straight Know Your Target . ...

I recently bought a 1000 bullets, TNT's, in .224, 33 grs for my Hornet. I also ordered 400 of the 165 gr SBT bullets. I am thinking they are Speers. I should be ordering a 1000, but money is getting a little tight now.

With the prices of everything going up, now is the time to stock up. I wish these 308 cal. bullets were 150 grs. My Remington Model Seven loves them.

PS: I think the cannelure bullets are Hornadays. I don't like the cannelures except for magnum cartridges. Just my own thoughts.

FYI... The magnum cannalure is located higher up on the bullet and "MAY" (according to Midway) have a thicker jacket.

Rojelio

Can anyone tell what name brand they might be Mid Way can't disclose this by contract with the manufacture. Looks like Sierra but I cant tell. Doesn't realy mater though they are cheap enough for me even though I live in Missouri and will get a double dose shipping/sales tax.

Seems like Midway ships free on orders over $25.

Don't we all wish.

The only pills I've seen that mention "spitzer" are sierras.But I haven't seen all the pills either!

The good old days when Midway shipped for free. Long ago! They said they were going to lower the prices and have the customer take care of shipping so it would be more fair to everyone.

Thanks for the heads-up I took 10 boxes of the .308's. Any new brass sells?

I am stocking up myself. With the prices going up and up, we ned to do this. I am still waiting for some 150 gr. .308 cal. bullets to go on sale.

Bullets just arrived today. Midway has fast shipping to here!
I still don't know what brand I have. Matching up with my Hornady 165 btsp it is really different. These have a sharper more narrower cone , longer point with a little more exsposed lead, shorter bt .125,measures 1.202 in length overall.
The light blue plastic case it is repackaged in is nice. Resealable snap lid, stays snaped in place.
For $16.40 a box, including shipping (10 boxes) I am a happy camper

Due to Factory Price Increases Remington & Winchester Ammo to Increase June 1st! See Letters

At least i have my sighting in bullets, now i need to find brass!
Maybe i didn't lie to the wife after all when i said "Honey it will save me lots of money in the years to come reloading"

I got the order the other day and I believe the bullets are Nosler Spitzers. They don't match any of hte other bands, but do match the Nosler bullets I have. The clue isthe bevel on hte boat tails. They are shorter and more of an angle.

Anyway will load some up and take them to the range next week.
