Why to reload

Main reasons to start reloading:
  • reloaded ammunition is cheaper
  • is more accurate
  • it may be stronger or weaker, exactly as you want them to be
  • reloading is fun
  • you'll finally start to shoot more and talk less
 
The saving when reloading:

When reloading, you reach inconsiderable saving. Factory-made 9mm Luger cost about 5Kč. Reloaded one costs 2-3Kč, depending on used components. Naturally, the more expensive the ammo is, the greater is the saving. When shooting some of the exotic calibers, it's the only way to shoot them, if you're not owner of a diamond mine.

 
How to begin reloading:

We need a few essentials:
 
  • Case tumbler
    • Serves to clean the shells, which we want to reload. We prefer dry cleaning using walnut or corn media.
    
  • Reloading press
    • It's the most important part of the reloading set. Depending on reloading (rifle amunition, pistol amunition, combination of different calibers, quick change of calibers...) and the ammount of ammunition to be reload, we choose different presses. Purchase of the press is an investiment for many years. When picking a press, there's suggested to be more generous and buy better one, than you apparently need. The reloading press isn't just for one season and our quality press won't give you a reason to replace the machine. Presses which can be improved by purchasing and equipping accessories are a good solution. I'm sure you'll make the same experience as many before you. You'll simply enjoy it. You will find that price of your ammunition lowered and you have better shooting results, so you shoot more, than you originally estimated. Aside this, you surely want to spend more time shooting than reloading. This problem may be solved by your child, that's shooting too :)
      (but the ammo consumption will at least double, so it's a bit contraproductive step)
 
  • Gunpowder
    • Basically, we distinguish between fast and slow. And between those, which pollute the gun and those, which leave the gun clean. Let us advise you, what powder to use.
 
  • Primers
    • Primers are made in different sizes and designs. We're clasiccaly reloading Boxer type primers. Boxer type case is recognized by having just one hole leading out of primer. Primers are made in different sizes, but one caliber uses only one primer size.
 
  • Bullets
    • Bullets you use can be easily made by casting lead using tools we sell, or bought. By experience it is better to cast a good bullet at home than buy it. Sadly, cheap sold bullets may unfavorably affect the accuracy of shooting. If you want to buy the bullets, it is better to consult with someone who has sufficient experience. We will be pleased if you choose the right bullets by contacting us.
