How to neck turn brass. It's a fairlt simple process but it must be done right. If the case neck is too thin the neck will prematurely split. If you're converting an existing rifle case to another, especially necking down or shortening you usually have to turn them in order to get the cartridge to chamber.
This video describes bullet pulling. We also show you how to get the most from your bullet puller. Getting rid of the "universal" shell holder is the best upgrade you can make. NEVER try to pull tracers! If you want to pull a tracer use a collet puller, this is used in the press.
Easy way to anneal brass for either conversion or to soften old brittle brass. It's easy to do but you can't let the brass get too hot. Of you do it'll be too soft and will cause structural failure, usually in the shoulder. If you heat the brass too far down the body of the sae you'll ruin the case all together.
This is a quick introduction on the two chronographs that I use. I will be taking them to range to demonstrate their use and show you how to trouble shoot them in an upcoming tutorial.
This tutorial shows how to slug a barrel to determine the bullet diameter you need when sizing your cast bullets. This will increase accuracy and reduce leading.
This video shows the very basics of bullet swaging and what the equipment is. The dies are from C&H4D. Ammosmith would like to thank Dave Davison frm C&H4D who went the extra mile to help us out. If you're interested in these dies here's where to get them. http://www.ch4d.com/
IMPORTANT SAFETY SEGMENT! Watch before loading with soft primers in your semi auto rifle. Most commercial promer cups are thin and soft. This is a looming danger to anyone loading for a rifle with a floating firing pin. This includes but not limited to the AR 15, M1 Garand, M1A, AK seris, and others. A slam fire will destroy your weapon and will cause severe injury or death.
How to use your reloading press to prime brass. It's a simple process but there are some things you need to know. This method of priming is great for priming either military brass or new unfired brass. The press gives you the handloader far more force than can be gained from a hand held priming tool.
Converting a 9x19 NATO to a 9x18 Makarov. It's very easy and will save you a lot of money. 9x9 or as it's commonly called just the 9mm is all over ranges and gun clubs across the nation, it's free and you can make 9x18mm brass out of it.
The actual fire forming process. I apologize for the poor quality of this video. My lens got something on it and it was really early in the morning. I'll re shoot this soon.
