If you want more photos or have any questions, feel free to message me. Asking $600. l can meet in the Manchester, TN area so you can look it over and make a decision. I have plenty of references if needed.

I'm selling my vintage ammo collection. I have too much to list separately. I have Sharps, Old Winchester, Vetterli, Ballard, Derringer, Pin Fire, Lip Fire, Cup Fire, Blanks, Test Rounds, Odd ball and much more. Picture is just a handful of what I have in one box. The majority of this ammo is loose rounds, no boxes. If you're looking for a certain type, please message me and I'll send pictures of what I have. I'm in Manchester and can meet locally. I have plenty of references if needed. Thanks.

This is the second Dillon XL650 Reloading Press with Case Feeder I have listed. This one I had set up for .380. It has the strong mount, new style case feeder. It comes with everything you need except a die set. Case feeder is right at a year old. Put your .380 dies in it and it's ready to go. You can easily load 400 per hour. Powder system, tool head, shell plate, primer tube, it's all there. I'm asking $875 for this set up. Cash only, no trades. Serious enquiries I'll set up a time to view them. I have plenty of references available if needed. I'm in Manchester. I also have a second Dillon 650 listed on here set up for 9mm. If you take both, I will sell the pair for $1700 and I'll include all the spare parts I have for the 650 and 2000 pieces of 9mm brass.

Thought I'd offer this here and try and put it in local hands. This book is in like new condition. No tears, stains, water damage, missing pages or anything like that. It is the stated first printing. Dust jacket is complete. I'd like $75 for this book. I'll help meet locally within reason. I will ship if needed on your dime. This book weighs almost 4 pounds so it would go medium flat rate. I don't ship stuff like this by media mail. In the photos I've included an image of the detailed description of this book from online. Note my book is not new but like new. Thanks for looking. BOOK is SOLD

The .348 has been sold to KahrMan.

It was the biggest crowd they've ever had. People waited in traffic up to five hours on Friday and were turned away. Others parked on the side of the road and walked up to two miles to get in. They delayed the start on Friday because dealers were stuck in traffic and couldn't open their booths. Some dealers didn't make it in until noon. 8600 people Friday and 14,400 on Saturday.

I was set up in the sheds at #7

You're right. Powder back then was $10 pound. I used to buy all my primers off of Hi'Tech. Last time I bought they were $125/5000! I sold a bunch of cleaning rod sets. I sold the rods and handle for the Garand/Carbine for $5.00 set. Same on the .50 cal. Sold the old M16 sets for $10 set. People bought parts like crazy. Most I've ever sold there.

The crowd and show sure did change over the years. Years ago there were crates full of surplus guns, box lots full of parts, ammo. It all went away.

I was set up at Knob Creek last weekend and the reloading stuff was slim. Pat's Reloading had WC844 and WC846 for $195 for 8lbs. Primers were non existent. Grunt67 was on the money. ALL the primers are going into ammo orders at the moment. A couple vendors had a few boxes, but they were asking $125 and $145 per 1000. Saw a couple boxes get sold. One vendor had ten one pound bottles of Varget. He wanted $50/pound. Another vendor was set up with a collection of powder but it was all $45/pound and higher. None of it sold. A brass vendor was selling .223 fired brass at $125/1000 and .45acp at $100/1000. It didn't sell. On the flip side of that projectiles sold like crazy. Spectre Supply brought 1-1/2 Tons of 9mm, .223 and .30 cal. They were completely sold out by 11:30 Friday morning. Every projectile they had was sold in less than 2 hours! Ammo sales were hit and miss. The big vendors were trying to sell Barnaul steel case .223 at $390/1000. We did not see a lot of it moving. 9mm was at $25 a box. .45 acp was at $30 and $35 per box. We did have a good talk with the guys from Pat's reloading. They have a direct line to the primer producers. They said there are huge orders out there for primers. When those orders finally get delivered to the vendors, most wont be able to handle the elevated price on the bill and there will be a big dumping of primers on the market. First quarter of 2022 is when a lot of these orders are slated to be filled. I guess we'll see how it plays out then.

Apology accepted, appreciated and we're good.

I do a lot of loading and testing. Thought these results may be of interest to some. I always enjoy hearing others results as well. This test was done at 30'. I used CFE Pistol powder and CCI 500 primers. All shots were fired from a Ransom Rest. I did target and ballistic gel tests. The rounds you see were taken from the ballistic gel. All averaged 12"-15" penetration. The V-Crowns and Gold Dots mushroomed out very well and had great weight retention. The RMR hollow points are very accurate but the jacket fragments quite a bit on impact. The Hornady XTP is a bone crusher. Everything was loaded on Dillon 650s with a Mighty Armory sizing die.
