THIS is why I load.

If you're gonna load subsonic rounds be sure to do plenty of research because less powder in a case CAN be worse that an overcharged case.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Pretty solid deal here. Best part is free shipping as Midway will gouge you on. Only thing I would add is a case trimmer, which I think is an absolute necessity when loading rifle cases. Even though the brass may be shorter than max length, I always trim to keep them consistent.

Every deer that I've killed I shot with a round that I loaded myself. For me, the issue is not money, it's accuracy. Every time I pull that trigger I preface it with a prayer "God make me accurate and make this quick". My biggest fear is that I will maim a deer and it will suffer. I will do everything I can to lower the probability of that happening. Learning to produce a powerful, accurate load does just that ...

For each of my guns I have spent a good bit of time working up a load. I focus on pushing them as fast as I can safely at first until I get a range of charges to work with. Then I focus on drilling down to the most accurate of those loads. The end result is a round that packs as much punch as I can get while giving me the accuracy I need to be confident in whatever shot I chose to take.

This forum is a great place to get started and to learn some of the more advanced techniques. Another great place to frequent is The Highroad' hand loading and reloading forum : https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?forums/handloading-and-reloading.15/

Several aldeer.com members are on there also and most everyone is really helpful

Another benefit of loading your own is that you will always have the ammo you need (as long as you keep the raw materials stocked ... primers, brass, powder, bullets).

We had a year or two during the Obama administration where ammo supplies were short. I was stocked up with plenty of raw materials so I never had an issue coming up with a round to shoot. I sold off my entire stock of factory ammo and used the funds to buy the powder, brass, primers, and bullets I needed
