Well, Fall is officially here. The kids are back in school, the days are getting shorter and yes, the leaves are beginning to change colors. It’s always amazing to me how fast the trees change this time of year. In a couple of weeks the visibility in the woods will be better and the bugs will be gone. I for one love this time of year……as long as I avoid thoughts of what’s to follow. All this can only mean one thing to many of us, hunting season is right around the corner. There is nothing like the sights and smells of the woods this time of year and the anticipation of our favorite game stepping out of the brush. The Titan Crew wishes all of you the best of luck this year.

No clicks, just smooth adjustment. Reads just like a precision depth micrometer, record your setting and easily return to them for future use. The micrometer adjuster can be easily transferred to other Lee Bullet Seating Dies, but it is so economically priced, you will want one for every die.

Tips for Your Reloading Hobby

Reloading should be both fun and cost-efficient. Since going live as Titan Reloading.com on August 19, 2010, we have made many friends all over the world. People contact us constantly for information and advice about the best reloading supplies. We continue striving to provide superior product support and believe it is the core of our success. Today, I want to share a few tips that have become obvious over the years. Whether you are new to reloading or have decades of experience, I encourage you to come back often to learn and share tips on the hobby, money-saving tips, and tips for beginners.

#1. Create a Reloading Space. Whether you live in an apartment or house, you need to carve out some space for your reloading hobby. We’ve seen people use spaces as small as three feet by three feet and others take up an entire basement with more than one dedicate reloading bench. If you’re space challenged, a bench plate can be the solution you are looking for. The purpose is to maximize your benchtop real estate. The system has a steel base plate that you mount to your bench and a steel plate that you attach to the base of each of your presses and accessories. When you finish with one piece of equipment, it’s easy to pull it off the bench plate to mount another piece of gear on another plate.

Another space-saving option is a reloading stand that also works with the bench plate. A reloading stand works both as a space saver in small areas or as additional room for the reloader who has no more room on his main bench. The Lee reloading stand is only 26″ wide by 24″ deep and has a steel shelf with two bench plate receivers for presses and mountable accessories.

#2. Use a Reloading Manual. Before you try your buddies’ favorite loads and especially before trying what you read in online forums from unknown strangers, learn the safety and accuracy that comes from loads that have been tested by experts. Use a comprehensive reloading manual to develop safe minimum and maximum loads. No matter how knowledgeable you are, you will find new and interesting information put together by specialists. Even journeyman shooters developing their own loads use a good manual to look up other cartridges with similar capacity and pressure values.

#3. Use a Kinetic Bullet Puller. We all make mistakes but with a bullet puller, you don’t waste the brass. More than one shooter has taken a batch of new rounds to the range only to learn something isn’t right. For whatever issue you run into, a kinetic bullet puller lets you quickly break down your mistakes and reuse the brass.

#4. Build Your Reloading Bench. Referring back to tip #1, a custom bench can maximize the space you have available. The best benches are heavy-duty to last a lifetime and withstand the rigor of pulling thousands of loads. When building it out of wood it should be glued and screwed together. The legs and supports should be heavy-duty with cross-bracing. Top plywood is best at 1” or 1½” in thickness. I suggest a topcoat of polyurethane with a few coats of sealant to prolong the life of the wood and protect it from solvents, gun oil, etc.

#5. Start With Basic Equipment and Reloading Supplies. The simplest way to get started is with a Lee Loader kit. Along with that, you’ll want a single-stage press for the most cost-effective and easiest way to begin reloading. A single stage press teaches you the process basics.

#6. Range Brass for Practice Ammo. Range brass can be okay for practice and maybe shooting in local matches. But it’s not recommended for defense or hunting. Be safe; only collect range brass at the end of your session or when no one is actively shooting. Don’t waste time at the firing range inspecting every piece of brass you see. Instead collect the ones that look good and inspect them at home.

BE A SHEEPDOG

August is Sheepdog Month here at Titan Reloading, where we pay tribute to and say THANKS to all our fellow Sheepdogs. Sheep are powerless to defend against the wolf. The sheep will fall prey to any attacks on the flock by wolves. A Sheepdog spends every day blending in with the flock. Unlike the sheep, the Sheepdog has all the same abilities that the wolf does. The only difference is the wolf intends to prey on the sheep and the Sheepdog intends to protect them. BE A SHEEPDOG! Wolves beware…..we’re packin’ too…..your game is now over!

Preamble to The Declaration Of Independence

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are suffer-able, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!

The Titan Crew is wishing all of our fellow Americans an Independence Day full of family and reflection. Take a moment to consider the spirit of our Founding Documents and what is happening to our freedoms as we redefine the meanings. The strength of our country comes from the self reliant individuals who are a part of a larger cause, not in the notion of a collective society were those who do not pursue happiness are still entitled to it. Our Constitution guarantees our opportunities….not our outcomes. We must teach this spirit to our children lest they only hear the redefined versions of responsibility so popular in educational circles today.

Tips for Beginning Reloaders

More than few times, we’ve heard the same reasons for not getting into ammo reloading are the startup cost and not enough space in your home. With the right reloading supplies, it doesn’t have to be either of those. Reloading is a great relaxing hobby that doesn’t need to be expensive nor take up much room.

Ask for Help

Reloading your own ammo doesn’t need to be complicated. Many beginners start with reloading supplies and equipment that consist of no more than a single stage press, a basic set of dies, a powder measure, and a beam scale.

For experts, it’s their gusto for the hobby that overexcites… and that’s not a bad thing. Regardless of your skill level, don’t hesitate asking for help or a second opinion. Here at Titan Reloading, we’re happy to answer any questions you might have about reloading supplies and/or the use of our equipment.

Start Small and Simple

You probably don’t want to dedicate a large space in your home when getting started. Fortunately, there are great space-saving solutions such as using a bench in your garage or basement.

However, maybe you don’t have enough space in your garage or basement. In that case, your reloading supplies and equipment solution can be a folding workbench you pull out to use almost anywhere.

A portable reloading bench isn’t only for the beginner. These also come in handy for more advanced reloading hobbyists who occasionally need more space next to their dedicated bench. This means when a beginner becomes an intermediate or expert, the workbench is still utilized.

Another great use is taking it along to do some testing with your reloading supplies. You can reload on the spot at your favorite firing range. You’re able to test and fine-tune countless combinations of reloading components in a single trip.

When You’re Ready to Grow Your Reloading Hobby

Your hobby will grow. You’ll become one of the enthusiasts with a dedicated reloading bench. You’ll be the expert talking to new friends about getting started. Your dedicated bench will need more space. And we have the solution.

The Lee Bench Plate is the perfect accessory for the reloader looking to quickly change between presses on their bench. You’ll get more use from your existing workspace.In fact, experts who progress to training beginners find this to be very useful for frequently changing out different presses.

Here’s another money saving tip. Not only will you save money reusing your own brass, you can also pick up free brass found at the range.

INSIGHT OF THE MONTH:

Rippled and Crushed Cases

While there can be many reasons for a case to be rippled or crushed in the reloading process, there are primarily two.

The first is that the bullet seating die is not set properly. If the crimp shoulder is set too deeply, the case is crimped before the bottom of the press stroke is achieved. Once the bullet is seated, additional pressure pushes the already heavily crimped case into the die further resulting in a crushed case. This is a common occurrence with thin and long case necks such as the 30-30 Winchester.

The trick is to set the bullet seating depth first, then the crimp. This is done as follows; With an empty, sized case in the shell holder, hold the ram at the top of its stroke. Turn the bullet seating die body down over the case until you feel it come to a stop. This will be when the case mouth contacts the crimp shoulder inside the die. Mark this position by turning the lock ring down against the turret or press frame. Now adjust your bullet seating depth. Once you have the bullet seated to the desired depth, back the bullet seater adjuster out about 1 turn. Now turn the bullet seating die body in to apply the desired crimp. Once this is established, hold the ram at the top of its stroke and spin the bullet seater adjuster down until it stops.

It is a good idea to carry this out with an empty case, so that after you have seated the bullet, you have a perfectly safe “dummy” cartridge (or gauge) to repetitively set seating depth and crimp on future occasions. Once you have this “dummy” gauge, all you have to do is place it in the shell holder, raise the ram to the top of its stroke, turn the bullet seating body down until it stops, and then turn the bullet seating depth adjuster in until it stops. Since the crimp and the seating depth were already set, the die will return to very close to the same settings.

The second reason is generally associated with the collet dies. If the collet in the die has been collapsed, the case neck can not clearly enter the collet area. This results in a crushed and / or buckled case. This can be avoided by not operating the die without a case in it. If this happens, it is necessary to remove the collet and pry the collet leaves back so that they stay apart when inserted back into the die. The ID of the die body will cause the leaves to stay uniformly apart.

Auto Bench Prime Jamming Issue

If you do not lift the lever firmly enough, you may get a primer fed against the flash gate and a second primer in the elevator. To release trapped primer, use a paper clip to slide the primer back into the elevator. To prevent this from happening, firmly lift against the rubber up stop, or remove the rubber up stop o-ring with a pocket knife.

When installing a primer be sure to raise the lever back up to the top stop. If you simply let go of the lever at the bottom of the stroke the spring can return the lever with enough force to release another unwanted primer.

The Economics of Reloading: Analyzing Cost Savings Over Time

In the world of shooting sports and hunting, the debate between purchasing factory ammunition and reloading your own is as old as the practice itself. With the rising costs of ammunition and the growing interest in custom loads, more shooters are turning towards reloading as a cost-effective and satisfying hobby.

In this article, our experts at Titan Reloading will compare the costs and benefits of reloading supplies vs factory-made ammunition to help you determine how much, and how quickly, you can save.

The Basics of Reloading Supplies

Understanding the costs associated with reloading begins with a comprehensive look at the necessary supplies. Reloading requires an initial investment in equipment and materials, including:

●    Reloading Press: The cornerstone tool for any reloader, available in single-stage, turret, and progressive models.
●    Dies: Caliber-specific tools that resize the brass, remove the spent primer, and seat the new bullet.

After this, you’ll incur per-round costs:

●    Powder: Propellant for the bullet, which must be measured precisely for safety and performance.
●    Primers: Small but critical components that ignite the powder charge.
●    Bullets: Projectiles, available in various weights and designs for different purposes.
●    Brass Casings: The reusable shell that holds the bullet, powder, and primer together.

While this list of supplies might be daunting, let’s take a look at how they compare to factory ammunition costs in the long run.

The Costs of Reloading vs Factory Ammo

While the immediate investment of reloading equipment can serve as a barrier, the reloader who invests in bulk components can often see the cost per round drop below that of factory ammo.

Unlike factory ammunition, where you pay for each round, reloading supplies can be purchased in bulk, at a lower per-unit cost. Additionally, brass casings can be reused multiple times, further reducing expenses.

The savings extend beyond just the price per round. Reloading allows shooters to customize their loads to match their specific needs, potentially leading to better performance and accuracy without the premium price tag of specialty factory ammunition. This aspect, while not directly a part of the cost analysis, adds value to the practice of reloading.

The Long-Term Cost Savings Analysis

To truly appreciate the economic benefits of reloading, you’ll have to consider the long-term savings, especially for frequent shooters. Over time, the initial cost of purchasing reloading equipment is amortized over thousands of rounds, significantly lowering the average cost per round compared to factory ammo.

Frequent shooters, who expend large quantities of ammunition, benefit the most from reloading. Not only do they save money with each round, but they also gain the flexibility to produce custom ammunition tailored to their shooting preferences.

For those contemplating the switch to reloading for economic reasons, it’s crucial to project your shooting habits and ammunition usage over several years. By doing so, you can calculate the break-even point.

For example, high-quality equipment might cost you about $600, and each bullet might save you $0.20 per round. At this rate, you’ll break even at about 3000 rounds, improving your cost-efficiency and quality in each round thereafter. Beyond the economic benefits, reloading often becomes an enjoyable hobby, adding to the list of long-term benefits.

The Titan Crew is “Steady as she goes” right now and looking forward to the Super Bowl. Our “Green and Gold” was knocked out early but the playoffs have been great this year. Good Luck to the Ravens, Chiefs, 49ers, Lions and their fans. The days are growing steadily longer so we are on the right side of winter and soon, “Play Ball !” will be heard across this land. As for that groundhog this Friday I recommend he go fly a kite, ’cause lookin’ up will fix the seeing his shadow problem.

4 Basic Tips Every Reloader Should Know

Whether you’re a professional marksman or a weekend warrior, reloading ammo has countless benefits and it’s an activity that the whole family can enjoy. And while the fundamentals of reloading are easy to learn, there are always ways to improve the process. Here are four basic tips that every reloader should know.

Don’t Get Carried Away

One of the foremost benefits of reloading is the ease with which different bullets, powders, and casings, can be tested. This testing is particularly useful for competitive shooters because it allows them to improve the accuracy of their rounds by testing each component individually. Similarly, many hunters prefer to reload because they can increase the power of the round by adding more gunpowder than comes standard in factory-loaded rounds. The ability to try various combinations of bullets and powder levels is advantageous, but it’s easy to get carried away and, in doing so, stray beyond the manufacturer’s guidelines. Failing to adhere to these guidelines can compromise the integrity of the round, creating a potentially dangerous situation. Therefore, always follow the guidelines and specifications set forth in the manual.

Keep Records

Record keeping probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think of reloading, but tracking your progress is essential for improvement. After all, it can take a lot of loading, shooting, and adjusting to find that sweet spot, so once it’s found, it needs to be logged. Likewise, it’s important to note when things go wrong, such as a lousy powder/bullet combination that results in a misfire or a load that builds up a dangerous amount of pressure before firing. Best of all, record-keeping is easy. All you need is a pen and a spiral notebook, and you’re ready to go!

Maintain Clean Equipment

Reloading involves working with precise tolerances, and if a bit of case lube or some metal shavings get in the way, it can cause problems down the line. The resizing die and setting die are components commonly compromised by dirt and grime. Fortunately, this issue is preventable so long as you’re willing to spend a few extra minutes cleaning your reloading equipment and reloading supplies after use. Ultrasonic cleaners work wonders for this task, but if you don’t have an ultrasonic cleaner, you can use cotton swabs dabbed in a copper solvent.

Stay Safe

Becoming a skilled reloader takes a lot of practice, but you’ll be pumping out rounds with confidence before you know it. As you familiarize yourself with the process, it’s easy to become complacent, and when working around gunpowder and live ammunition, complacency can lead to a dangerous situation. Therefore, you must always adhere to safety protocols, like wearing safety glasses and keeping the area free of clutter.

Becoming a Better Reloader

There is no doubt that reloading is a great way to save money and increase the reliability of your ammo. Not to mention, it’s a lot of fun. The reloading process is relatively simple, and assuming you have the correct reloading supplies, you’ll be turning out rounds in no time. But before you get started, take heed of these four basic reloading tips, as they will help you become a better reloader.
