🔥Step-by-Step Reloading .38 Special Ammo - Tips YOU Need To Know.

[@indianajets]

The best explanation on how to set 38sp I've seen on here. Thanks for your help. Great video

[@atlyvwire]

Well thank you Jason for that comment. 👍😁. That one earned a pin to the top of the board.!!

[@indianajets]

@@atlyvwire just learning to load. Had an old (red) Lyman 4 hole given to me. The old guy that gave it to me said he was sad to be getting out of it, but at 93 he didn't shoot much anymore. I'm only loading for 38sp and 357 mag for my marlin. Your part on setting the seating and crimping die was a life saver. The struggle was real for me in trying to get that one right. I watched your video around 9pm and couldn't help myself but to go out and try it. Was up loading until 2am..i get up for work at 4:30..lol thanks man for the lack of sleep.. bahaha

[@atlyvwire]

@@indianajets Man I’m super glad I was able to help. Sorry about your lack of sleep! Been there 🤣 Well have fun with that be safe. No I don’t Facebook I’m not on there, I don’t like the drama.! 😎

[@kenwalker687]

This is probably the first time that I have seen a reloading video that the author appears to cover EVERYTHING! T/U

[@cal30m1]

A couple of comments from someone who has been reloading since the 70’s: uniform trim length ensures consistent crimping and if the case is several thousands over could cause over pressure. That spacer ring is only used for the expander and seating die for 357. Overall length per the book is only useful if using the exact bullet specified, best to set depth, (coal), to approx midway down the crimping grove, (or cannelure of jacketed bullet).

[@wadeb5151]

I'm looking at a friend's setup to purchase. He's a nice guy but a terrible teacher! This showed me what I need to know. Thanks, good job.

[@tomeemerson]

I haven't hand loaded in over 40 years, great refresher course! Will be watching again.

[@mr.horseshoe2301]

Rookie reloader here. This video helped me out so much! Thank you!

[@silaslongshot941]

If you're using magnum pistol primers, a good way to keep them from accidentally being mixed with standard ones is to use a magic marker to color the faces of the primers before you dump them from the shipping trays. Then you have a 'heads up' before they get installed.

[@macy725]

This will be the first pistol cartridge I will reload for, this video helped a lot thank you!!!

[@atlyvwire]

Your welcome!!!

[@G19Jeeper]

Really good explanation. I make it a point with all pistol cartridges and straight wall rifle to crimp in a separate step since the length of the brass can vary slightly. Lee Factory Crimp dies will change your life.

[@CoachKalu]

I never do the double tap thing. I know a lot of reloaders do, but personal preference I suppose.

[@pareloader5989]

Thank you for your response. I have been loading for years on a single stage press and I love reloading and find it to be a great hobby. The problem I had was hand fatigue during case prep. I purchased the lyman case prep xpress and it really has made reloading enjoyable again. That might be something that you might consider purchasing at some point. No I don’t work for Lyman but it has really saved my hands.

[@atlyvwire]

That’s not a bad idea. Appreciate the recommendation. Yeah for some reason the younger i get, the more achy breaky I’m getting as well.!! 😊

[@buffalobill3504]

Good video. I like using the Lee Universal Decapper because I decap before cleaning. Avoids scratched sizing die if you pick up range brass off the ground. I like to clean after the flash hole decapped. I also like the Lee Case Primer. It is easier on the hands, has a good feel to it, but filling the tray can be a bit fussy. Time is not a big issue for me since I enjoy the handloading process so much. I do like my single stage Rockchucker best, but I have a Lee progressive press mounted on a Harbor Freight grinder stand so I can move that press inside to reload when it is cold outside. I use the progressive press single stage because time isn't an issue and I feel I have better control with a more consistent result. Great hobby!

[@wbriggs111]

I love using lee brand dies. The brass looks like it is polished after resizing.

[@patrickwilliams2968]

You could teach high school trades. Very straightforward info. Very helpful while i'm at my bench learning how to load .38.

[@kirkboswell2575]

Good video. One thing. You mentioned always starting with the listed starting load - good. You mentioned working up to the max load - good. However you didn't say that you should never use LESS than the listed starting load either. Otherwise, you've made a good training video for newcomers, and that is something that will always be valuable.

[@lestergillis8171]

One can often get by with going a bit below starting. Going a great deal below staring can, of course lead to "other problems".

[@kirkboswell2575]

@@lestergillis8171 - True, but you have made a video for "newcomers", and newcomers won't have a grasp of the "bit below starting" concept. That's a concept for experienced reloaders because newcomers might interpret "bit" as half of starting. For newcomers, it should be a standard instruction "don't use less than starting". This is also a standard instruction in all reloading manuals. They all say this, so a video targeted to newcomers should also include this basic instruction. As they gain experience, their understanding will expand, and "a bit below starting" won't be an issue. But as a "newcomers" video, this basic concept needs to be included.

[@davidemley6116]

This very good explanation i will be loading 38 spl i have learned well from this thanks

[@jerryware5749]

Just found this excellent video. Very informative for those getting started. I have been reloading since the 70s and competed during the 90s and early 2000s in PPC using the 38 SPCL and Red Dot was one of my favorite powders with the 148 HBWC. Had the opportunity this past weekend to finally show my grown son how to reload and did this single stage so he could learn it well before moving to progressive at a later date. Your technique is almost identical to what I have done all these years and also using the same equipment. Couldn't help but notice you picked 3.0 grains to start with, but at 20:54 and 21:05, your scale is set at 3.2 grains, but still a safe load.

[@atlyvwire]

Thank you Jerry for the kind words and the short story. It’s always wonderful reloading with our children and getting them into it. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. God Bless!

Great video... The longest part of reloading, counting those grains out! Hilarious!

[@JDRay-hq7lm]

Great video, but one comment: you don't clean your brass prior to depriming. I do, because I don't like putting dirty brass in a die. Eventually, you will get scaring and/or start sticking cases. I clean, deprime, tumble, then proceed with the reloading process. I don't have the scratches referred to at the start of the video. You can't tell if mine are once-fired, or on their fifth reload. Brass and dies will last much longer and love you for it. Just my experience.

I believe the first step you should always point out when trying to teach someone to reload is tell that person to get a good reloading manual and read it. No exceptions, maybe even read it twice.

[@Max-ye9xg]

Good to see Americans can still count these are good Hobbies

[@soylentg6270]

FWIW: .001 of an inch isn't the end of the world. I think your aggressive crimp probably added more pressure gains than leaving it that depth.

[@thewatcher611]

FYI the set screw does not mar the threads on your die. The lead shot behind the set screw squishes into the threads. To loosen it just loosen the set screw and give the ring a knock on the counter. At least that's how my Deluxe Redding dies work.

[@andyfisher8249]

Very helpful. A short video link to setting crimp would be helpful!

[@atlyvwire]

Thanks Andy I’m glad it helped you. I’ll try and get that short link in there that might be a good idea. I have another video on crimping also dedicated to just crimping. Have a Merry Christmas!🎄

[@luvtahandload7692]

For greater powder measure consistency, mount your measure in your press. Or a powder measure stand screwed down right over a leg on your reloading bench. Consistency is demonstrably better when the measure is mounted as solid as possible. Try it, you'll see. 🤠

Thanks for your input. I just may try that. Obviously we move our stuff around our bench for ease of accessibility. But it makes sense 😁

Thanks for the comment. I dont use lube with my carbide die when sizing the case on my straight cases. But to each their own and it’s not wrong.

Sir, all of your videos, that I have seen, to date, are awesome, and I’m learning so much. Thank you. I am doing CAST .38 and .357 M ( for revolver ) with 158 SWC Lee molded tumble lube boolits. They do not have the canilure, and I am powder coating them, no lube. There is no gas check involved with these, as well. I was given a set of RCBS carbide TAPER CRIMP dies for this. Obviously the die setup and procedure is different than your roll crimp. I’m guessing and researching, that it would just be similar to doing the 45 ACP in your other video? Did you make any videos on loading cast, powder coated , with taper crimping? Thank you again !

[@atlyvwire]

Hi there and thank you for the kind comments I appreciate that. Just put a slight taper to remove the bell that you had done to insert the bullet. It will be fine. You would follow the same steps as setting the taper crimp on the .45 yes. Roll crimps are standard but taper is not Unheard of with no cannelure, just make it ever so slight and you’ll be good.

[@michaelstarmer3497]

Pro tip here, never adjust your charge based on one. Throw 10, weigh it and see how close you are. In this example you should see 30 grains. Then adjust a tiny amount and throw 10 more. Way easier to see an accurate average.

How do you know your loads are getting too hot when working up to the max loads in a revolver? I read flattened primers and cratering aren't 100% reliable

[@atlyvwire]

If I do work up Hot Loads (+P) I work them up to either max grains by the book, OR back off if I start splitting case mouths. If your splitting mouths, your cases are used too much or your WAY too Hot! 😬 I never exceed the book data recommendations.

Interesting, how much, after materials and time (not counting initial equipment investment) would you estimate you save per 100 rounds rather than just buying the ammo?

[@rolfhogfeldt7645]

That's what I was wondering. After the machine and die costs is the savings per round substantial? My guess is with the price of over the counter ammo today, it is. Especially if you shoot a lot. It's such a downer to hit the range and then realize you're running low on ammo. All in all it looks like it can be fun to do on a rainy day or just to get away from the wife and kids in your garage or basement.

[@atlyvwire]

That’s true, it’s a piece of thin cardboard like from the front of a notebook or a business card to give you that hairline gap you need between the shell holder and the carbide ring on the resizing die when setting it up to give you that gap so you don’t whack the resizing die and risk breaking the carbide ring with your recite the shell holder.

[@hazcat640]

@@atlyvwire Thanks! I was wondering what it was for. So it is a spacer to keep things from banging together. Got it!

[@optician53]

Thanks! ... I'm just starting to learn the process, no equipment yet, but have 1000+ spent shells, and 200 FMJ 357/38 bullets, 130/158 grain. The FMJ bullets seem to fit very well in the spent shells, and of course no exposed soft lead. Is it OK to forego shell flair process?

[@atlyvwire]

If I’m understanding your question correctly, Before you can flare you must deprime and resize your shell. Once you do that you’ll notice the bullet won’t fit quite as well because currently the case is bigger than it should be right now being it expanded by being fired.

[@optician53]

@@atlyvwire That is correct ... I was referring to the point where you're ready to flare to fit the bullet, with all other steps done. I guess the part I missed was that resizing may not allow even a FMJ bullet to fit. So I'll stick with the script and do the flaring, leadnose, or FMJ ... thanks again!

[@atlyvwire]

That’s right, whether it’s full metal jacket or lead you need to flare the case mouth. Especially with lead because if you don’t you’ll shave the lead off the side of the bullet. That’s the nice thing about straight case after they’re sized when you bell the case mouth the bullet slides in tight and then you do the straight crimp on it just to put that belled mouth back where it was yet leaving it flat so it headspaces correctly on the end of the shell.

[@atlyvwire]

I have to correct a portion of my last statement. I forgot you’re reloading for 38 special or 357 so they don’t headspace on the end of the shell like a .45 ACP would. 😁

Sure, whether you use the spacer or not for 357 doesnt matter because you’re still running the shell holder up into the bottom of the die anyhow, so on a technicality you’re correct. I hope you enjoyed the video. 😃
