A lot of people don’t understand how easy it can be to get into loading, many look at all of the steps and research involved and get intimidated. Anybody who reads this and is thinking about getting into it I absolutely think you should. The amount of things you learn just from doing it is amazing and it makes a great hobby/pass time!

[@Drivapete]

I asked a friend of mine who reloads to reload 50 rounds of 257wby mag ammo for me. He said "come on over and you can help and learn something new ". 2hrs later when we finished I realized how much time it took, I was so appreciative of his time that I bought my own reloading equipment and learned to do it myself. Very time consuming and I didnt have a clue what was involved ! That was 4 years ago. I will reload for a few others occasionally and always invite them over to "help". They usually go buy their own stuff after they see what goes on.

[@kellyokamoto1604]

Here's a tip for those with kids or grandkids: Take 'em out shootin' and then have 'em scrounge for brass!!! I took my eight grandkids-ages 4 thru 16-taught 'em firearm safety and geared 'em up and we shot all types of guns, from several different 22LR's to 380's, 9mm, AR's, shotguns, M1 Carbines, then the FUN began!!! We made a game of who could pick up the most brass! Sure, I got a lot of aluminum and steel cases at first but they caught on real fast and I ended up with a bunch of reloadable brass!!! Got 'em trained now, too! A few of 'em went shootin' with my son (their Dad) and they sent vids of them collecting brass!!! It's like an Easter egg hunt only BETTER!!! Love your vids, by the way!

[@howardrodgers3015]

G&K Ol' School started teaching my kids like I learned at 2 years old. And now they are teenagers and young adults and are very responsible. I had a neighbor that tried to tell me 2 yo was too young. But i2 yo was when I started learning gun safety and about different firearms and ammo. His son and other kids that were around my kids had play with toy guns and the rules just like my kids. My kids and their friends have not used a weapon in anger ever. Not patting my own back I’m thankful for a Daddy Grandaddy and Papaw that thought me I’m just handing it all down. Teaching Gun safety should stop being taught and learned by me or anybody around me!

[@emersongoodrich1691]

I am *brand new* to reloading. I have the full setup (mostly Lee products, with a Lee hand loader at the moment until I can get a work bench to mount a single stage and eventually progressive press...) At first, I thought your video was going to be long, a little drawn out, and it seemed a little "iffy" from many I have watched on reloading. But I watched it entirely, and I was *WAY* wrong... And *wow*. Thanks for the work on that. It was totally *great*... Good resolution, great focused and clear up close shots, and *very* detailed and informative. I especially enjoyed the attention to detail (I'm going to be reloading .223 and .45 to start off with). I enjoyed the several different ways you described how to do some of the processes. The military crimp removal tool (from Dillon) you have I liked, but right now to start, I'm using an RCBS case prep center crimp removal tool loaded into my drill until I can get a better setup. I was surprised to see you didn't show loading primers on the priming tray, but I can do with out that. That's pretty basic. And I enjoyed your bit on the headspace check tool, I think I have the same one, it's a Dillon. But I *do* wish you would have shown or added setting up a crimping die and crimping the .223 rounds, because that's what I was interested in seeing how you set that up in your press,as I am going to be overly cautious, and I am going to crimp my .223 rounds just for my own piece of mind. You explained every step of the process *very well* and in layman's terms. Thanks for the video! You earned a thumbs up and a subscription from me...

How you got 41 dislikes blows my mind. I thought you did an exceptional job on informing the public on what it takes to reload on a single stage press. I do like how you showed some tools a beginner can use instead of the costly upgrades you can purchase over time. Ive been saving my brass for years and dont own a press as of yet but definitely plan on it in the near future. If you can nab my attention for over an hour id say you did a job well done. Kudos and thanks for the helpful tips. It helps me narrow down my choices when it comes to purchasing a press, trim tool, gauges, scale, etc.

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you! 41 anonymous trolls. Ha ha...

[@DimaProk]

07slowbalt This video helped me when I was starting to reload, but there are number of things that I would not do that are actually not safe for you, like baking your brass where you cook your food or washing your brass in the kitchen sink, it's lead exposure - not good for you. As you know gun powder contains lead too, so as you dry your brass that's still black inside, that stuff is evaporating with water and getting deposited in the oven and in the air and then you put your food to cook there and you get contamination, not a good idea. Also what's the point of waiting for preheat if you're not actually cooking? LOL. I find that using the small oven that you can pick up in thrift store or garage sale works much better, you can set it to lower 150 degrees and all you need is 20 minutes including "preheat" for brass to dry. Also he mentions the vibrator cleaner is best thing you can have, actually no, not really, again the lead particles that get thrown in to the air as your brass is getting clean is not good idea. Wet tumbler is much better, as nothing escapes in to the air, plus you save the whole "washing" your brass step, just throws the dirty brass in to the tumbler and couple hours later it comes out looking like gold. The Lyman trimmer is probably slower than Lee trimmer, if you're going to do volume reloads, get WFT, Giraud or Trim it or Hendrix one, they all are much faster and some will also deburr and chamfer too as they trim. Also why show forever how you pick up brass?? Show 5 seconds and you get the picture, etc. Anyway, thumbs up for thorough explanation, but some parts could be cut out.

[@DimaProk]

07slowbalt I don't know if you bought your reloading equipment yet, but in my experience sometimes I bought cheaper stuff to save money, but later end up upgrading and if I just knew from the start I would actually save money by buying right equipment. Ok, presses, I own 4 Lees, started with hand one, then to 30 dollar bench one, it was not bad press, but depriming is badly designed and spent primers end up damaging my press. Next one I got is my favorite - Lee Challenger, very affordable, depriming is so much better and you can use quick bushing adapters that make changing dies a snap. I also bought Lee Classic turret, which is much heavier and the arm needs to be moved much lower to activate turret rotation, I am still deciding if I want to keep it. Next, trimmer, get a Lee one he uses it's not bad if you chuck it in to cordless drill or electric screwdriver, it's ok for bolt action shooting volume, but for AR get WFT, Giraud, Trim-it, Hendrix precision. It might seem like a lot to spend 75 - 150 dollars on a trimmer, but after you trim even 50 cases you really going to wish for something faster. Next I recommend a brass prep center like Lyman, it has 5 rotating heads and you can debur, chamfer, pocket clean/uniform and the best part I use exact same head for chamfering to ream out out military crimp or the pockets that just have really hard time seating primers. The money you would spend otherwise on that blue swagger are much better off spend on prep center. I've tried RCBS press mounted swagger - hated and returned it, I've tried RCBS head and it was good, but not needed. For priming first I bought Lee hand prime and later upgraded to RCBS universal hand primer, much better, although Lee has perfect primer tray, it flips each primer with one shake and when you close it, it doesn't flip them back unlike RCBS. For powder hopper I bought Lee and when I got it adjusted it worked really well, RCBS one is much more solid build, although it doesn't let me drain powder like Lee does, it's build much solid though from metal vs Lee plastic. I also have blue Frankford Arsenal tickler - very nice, but not as cool as Omega, also FA scale which I am not too happy about and it can be real pain and I use Lee dies.

When I'm on a brass hunt, I pick up EVERYTHING. Keep what I reload and recycle$ the rest. I find it's good exercise as well without thinking about exercising. Why do you dispose of brass that you can't use? I save all of my junk brass and once a year (around the holidays), I take it to a local metal recycler and score a lot of free cash. Typically, I gather around $300. I recycle spend primers, too. It all adds up.

[@robby4866]

Hi - I just want to make a comment about the bent case that you resized. Doing that really bothered me. To me, that case was questionable. I've been loading for many, many years and have many years of ordnance experience. If it was me, it's not worth taking a chance of reloading a "questionable" case. If in doubt, throw it out! There may be an unnoticed internal hairline crack, and when you combine cracks and extreme high pressures, it's a recipe for disaster. Yes you may get away with it for the most part, and you may save yourself a few cents, but ask yourself, is my life worth the price of one 25 cent damaged case? No, throw that one away and continue on. I hope you take this as constructive, and take heart that this advice just may save you or a loved one a disasterous, irreversible consequence.Your video was very well put together, and very informative and enjoyed watching it. Keep up the good work.

I have some experience in pistol reloading, but am about to start my first round of rifle reloads with 223. 1 - I notice you didn't tumble a 2nd time to get rid of the case lube. Is that because of the Dillon Case Lube you used or is that just something you don't do? 2 - Isn't there a die that bells out the case mouth to accept the bullet? I thought I read somewhere about putting some case lube on the inside of the neck to help with that, but I'm not sure what that's about. What's your opinion of that?

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your reloading videos. Your info is complete and concise. Thanks for taking the time to help teach us rookies.

[@jiujitsu2000]

that's an amazing comment! I'd do more reloading videos, but I moved and all my reloading stuff is in storage until I get into a place where I can get setup again. when that happens there will be more for sure. I miss it! thank you for the kind words and support you give my channel. have a beautiful evening!

I have been reloading six calibers on three presses and your teaching method is the best I have ever seen. It takes a ton of patience as well as a very gifted understanding , very well done my friend!

[@jdaddyco]

I inherited all my dad's reloading equipment and supplies recently. I've helped him do every stage, but never all in a row. This video was just what I needed to put it all in sequence and remind me of some of the finer points. Great video, well planned and presented. Thank you!

John Cohagen Thank you for stopping by!

[@agustinsegovia6523]

I'm about to start reloading .223 and from someone who never done any kind of reloading at all, this video really help and answer a lot of questions I had! Thank you so much!

[@ronnierichard8720]

I loaded my 300 mags about 30 yrs ago and everything I did back then is exactly what you showed me today. Good video man you helped me get back to it. Thx Man

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you!

[@BarryJonesSr]

Thanks for taking your time to put this on. It is in my opinion the most informative tutorial for a beginner reloader I've seen.

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you for taking the time to stop by and share your kind words as well as there support you give my channel. Have a beautiful day!

This a a great comprehensive video that takes all of the mystery out of loading ammunition. A friend introduced me to reloading on his Dillon 450 single caliber setup, reloading a bunch of .45 ACP. I started out with a Dillon RL550B progressive loader with manual indexing. I liked their NO B.S. warranty to fix any problems, forever, even if you were not the original owner, and bought used equipment. I also liked the versatility of the press to reload a huge variety of calibers. Since I had a .30-06, a .223, and a .45 ACP I started with those calibers. A friend had the Dillon XL 650 which auto indexes and feeds shells, but I prefer the individual hands on with the 550B. I liked the interchangeable tool heads so that I can set the dies and not disturb the settings to change calibers. When I got a 9 mm, I bought another tool head and dies for that. I have picked up 1000’s of pieces of range brass, including a ton of mil-crimp .223, which other people ignored because of the crimped primer. The Super Swage 600 takes care of the primer pocket crimps mass production style. Check out Jeff Bartlett’s GI Brass web store for new and recycled bullets, brass and powder. I picked up 2000 pieces of Lake City 1969 pulled down .30-06 for feed my Garand, along with 2000 147 gr FMJ M2 ball bullets as well. I have not bought a single round of commercial ammo, except for rim-fire, in 25 years. Try it, you’ll like it, and you won’t need a background check to buy a box of ammo.

Some tips: Cold water helps to rinse away suds. Put washed brass in blocks and run a strong steam of hot water on the open ends of the cases to help dislodge pesky dirt stuck inside. I’ve even rewashed brass after de-priming, if I’m concerned about any residual dirt clinging inside. Great video!

Never shot a gun in my life. Not sure why KZbin recommend this to me 7yrs later, but I’m not disappointed.

[@chevysilverado3150]

You should try it 😀😁😁

[@MrJeffreyg]

Hi, I've never written into someone on KZbin but I was compelled after watching your video in it's entirety. I'm just getting started in reloading and I've purchased everything except for the powder, primers and bullets. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this video. You've taken the "fear factor" out of starting this new phase of target shooting.

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you for taking the time to share your kind words and for spring my channel! I'm happy this helped. have a great night!!

[@MrJeffreyg]

And God made it so... a child is born! I made my first round! Hopefully it won't blow up in my face. Thanks again for your great tutorial.

[@jiujitsu2000]

+Jeffrey M. Green sweet good luck and thank you for stopping by

[@filipefmelo]

I have to admit that when I saw the length of the video I thought to myself... "another one to skip and leave half watched". This was not the case. I watched it from end to end. Thanks for the most comprehensive video about this subject that I've ever watched.

[@sirarthurfiggis]

The most user-friendly reloading videos on KZbin, period, the end. Jiujitsu you have probably started thousands and thousands of people into the hobby. I know I'm one of them.

[@seansweeney8783]

I just starting reloading .223 and must have watched this video a million times. You are an excellent teacher. Thank You!

[@jiujitsu2000]

thank you for the amazing comment, kind words and support you give my channel. have a beautiful day!

[@diggerjones8220]

Thanks for this fantastic video. In my opinion the best learning vid for reloading on the net. The best is - i can understand you (i'm german). You speak slow and clear, that's good for me :-) Most vids just describe one step of the process or they use a multi press. Others are hard to understand (quick speech, slang). Or they just want to present their tools and don't tell the basics. I just started reloading and your tips and tricks helped me especially to prevent making mistakes that you showed. I work with "Lee Breach Lock CHALLENGER" single stage with O-frame - similar to yours. And i fill powder by hand. After watching your video, my priority goes to "check", "re-check" and "double-check" every step and every bullet. The last thing i have to buy is the tool to proove the finished round. Thanks again for this.

[@sqrly2u]

Absolutely the best reloading video I have seen. You sir, convey your points very accurately and concise. You are a great instructor. Keep up the good work with attempting to keep the rest of us safe. Thank you!

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you! I'm humbled (in a good way) by your comment. I appreciate the support that you give my channel. I will continue to keep up the good work! I have many cool video irons in the fire. Stay tuned my friend! :-)

[@mr.smiley4263]

Im just getting into reloading and I know this video is 7years old but thank you one of the most instructional video out there thank again for your time god bless!

[@FauxHawk31]

You Sir, have helped me understand so much about reloading. I am new to it and this has helped me tremendously!!!! Best 1 hr 25 minutes and 36 seconds of video I've watched of instructions on how to reload! You've explained in detail and provided tips which were very very very helpful!! Thank you!

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@renaecampbell5780]

I have a press being delivered in a week. This video was amazing. I'm certain I will be referring to it again. Well done and thank you

[@markrankin3297]

Thank you so much for your time on this video. I have also downloaded it to my laptop to be able to reference it offline. You are an excellent teacher.

[@michaelrchavez3634]

This has been one of the best reloading videos Ive watched. It's perfect for the beginner. This guys is clear, easier to understand and very knowledgeable.

[@jiujitsu2000]

Thank you!

[@WanderingShadow100]

It makes perfect sense to recycle the cartridges and fun thing to fire them... great satisfaction !! This reminded me when I was at college ...only had enough money to buy old text books but used them properly and achieved better grades that other guys... great satisfaction !!!

[@bruce3579]

This video had officially got me buying reloading stuff. Great video keep them coming!

[@robinj.9329]

When I began reloading way back in the early 70's, I often did 50 pistol cartridge in an evening after work. All on a single stage press! Was not a problem.

[@jiujitsu2000]

100% in my humble opinion people like you and me are the best kind of reloaders because we understand what every single die does. I've seen some scary reloaders. They have progressive machines and have no clue what's going on.

[@toycollector2611]

Great video. Clear video close-ups and audio. Your workflow insight is invaluable.I reloaded .243 on a Lee Loader in the 70's, now starting .223 on a Hornady single stage.Thanks for sharing!

[@jiujitsu2000]

amazing comment! thank you for the kind words and support you give my channel! it's people like you who help keep people like me doing what I love. making great videos! :-)
