I have a REM 870 shotgun that I will be using to shoot slugs. It needed to be drilled and tapped for a scope mount and NO ONE (close by my residence within a reasonable driving distance) was able to get me in so they could work on my gun. Lead time was 4~6 weeks for completion when I need it done within half that time. Not only that, but a lot of places said they couldn’t do it and those that could do it, wanted to charge $85 per hole.

I called Tom and without and hesitation he said he was able to help. The gentleman basically is doing it for Pennies and didn’t mind helping at all. I have to say that he is a GREAT guy to do business with. And, he loves talking about guns and “the past”.

For a guy whom I have never even met face to face, I have to say that I have made a friend though Accurate Reloading. I tip my hat to you sir. Thank you again for helping a young man in need.

Same here. Tom has helped me out on more than one time. Often fixing something that someone else messed up.

Tom handled a minor project for me. He sourced necessary components which took a while due to CV lockdowns, delays and shortages. With everything at hand he worked at pace and got the task finished in good time, with numerous, humourous emails and pics showing me the various stages of progress. It was great being kept right up to date. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Tom again.
I think I only had to remind him twice that I needed to pay him ! Big Grin


Hunting.... it's not everything, it's the only thing.

Thanks for the nice comments; I do appreciate them. I do get hate mail from guys who don't understand humor though. Or who don't understand truth.

Yep.. I like Tom’s skill set and knowledge, but especially his point of view or perspective on things.
