Reloading Ammunition 101

When considering whether or not you’d like to take up reloading, there is some basic information to know before you begin.

What is reloading?

Reloading is the process or assembling shotgun shells, cartridges, and other various pieces, as opposed to buying fully assembled, factory-loaded ammunition.

There are several benefits to reloading your own ammunition [insert link to other blog post about benefits]. Many people handload because it’s more cost effective, increased accuracy, it’s environmentally conscious, and many do it just for fun.

In order to start reloading your own ammunition, you have to have the correct supplies. Often, people will find that reloading kits are an easy solution because you can purchase everything you need to get started at once. This may be a good place to start if you’re a beginner. As you become more sophisticated in the practice, purchasing separate tools can be beneficial for experimenting. Essential reloading supplies include:

  • Press
  • Dies
  • Hand primer tool
  • Scale
  • Shellholders
  • Powder measure

Here are a few reasons as to why some people find reloading to be advantageous:

Cost Savings

The cost of ammunition can make shooting an expensive hobby. By making your own rounds, it not only saves you money but also the hassle of finding uncommon ammunition.

Performance

When one reloads their own ammo, it gives he or she the ability to work toward a specific velocity, greater accuracy and better yet, greater reliability and consistency; hence the reason why so many professional shooters choose to reload their own ammo.

Supply

The supply of ammunition can often be unpredictable. It is not uncommon for demand to increase quickly, and when this occurs, even the biggest shops can have a hard time maintaining their stock. When you have a reloading kit and the right supplies, you are no longer at the mercy of the market. Instead of going to the store only to find out that what you need has sold out, you have the security that comes with being able to reload your own ammunition.

These are just three of the most common reasons that people give for wanting to do their own reloading. If you want to learn more about what reloading can do for you or get more information about supplies, contact the team at Titan Reloading today 262-397-8819 or visit www.TitanReloading.com.
