Handloading tips - cool products

[Bigfoot]

So I'm forming up a couple hundred 260 bobcat cases (what can I say, if I drink coffee after 5pm I get all productive like) and was fondly reminiscing about reading Precision Shooting oh so many years ago when I was a rookie to any short of competitive shooting.

Dick Wright had a great re-occurring artle on "really good stuff".

I got onto that track as I had the great fortune to get hipped to Hornady's "One Shot" case lube at the neighborhood gun shop this week and good golly miss molly (not molybdenum disulfide, I got no use for that stuff! Ick!) does this stuff make lubing case up easier and much less messy (tacky, sticky, gross etc). I load up a tray of cases and spray them from a couple different angles and away we go...The cases don't even fell like they have anything on them but lo' and behold they go through the sizing die like butter.

So if I've been missing out on this great stuff for so long I just wonder what the heck else I'm missing out on? The only thing I think I know these days about anything is that there is so much more I don't know!

Soooooo...What say yea learned folks of steel chickens? What is the nifty reloading product that you can't live without? Inquiring minds are dying to know?

Stainless tumbling media in a rotary tumbler, but I have already told you about that...

Oh yeah.. this thing, too...

Frankford Arsenal Vibra-Prime Tube Filler

When I first got it, I did end up having to trim a tiny bit of plastic left over from the mold. Once I did that and figured out what angle to hold it to load the primer tubes, it's ridiculously wonderful for the price. If you have a loader that uses a tube for primers, you should have one of those. They got discontinued for years until FA just recently brought them back to the market. I think I'm going to buy an extra in case that happens again and I break or wear my current one out.

Lee zip trim, works really well and is one of the fastest trimmers made, once the case is in it you can brush the carbon out of the neck or clean the outside of the neck as well. Makes deburring after trimming effortless.

This is what I meant. Both of these tools look awesome. I've been using an old rcbs hand primer that has seen better days. Thanks guys!
