What’s Your TITAN Advantage?….WE RELOAD!
***Your Reloading Specialists***
The Titan Crew is “Steady as she goes” right now and looking forward to the Super Bowl. Our “Green and Gold” got knocked out in the NFC Championship but the playoffs have been great this year. Good Luck to the Chiefs, Buccaneers and their fans. The days are growing steadily longer so we are on the right side of winter and soon, “Play Ball !” will be heard across this land. As for that groundhog this Tuesday I recommend he go fly a kite, ’cause lookin’ up will fix that ‘seeing his shadow’ problem.
We have temporarily suspended all Back-ordering and Pre-ordering due to unpredictable stock availability. Unprecedented demand for reloading equipment has our suppliers behind on fulfillment. We have an absolute ONE PER CUSTOMER limit on all reloading equipment during this inventory shortage to keep prices down and items in stock for all. Use our ‘Notify System’ found in every listing for in stock updates.
BEWARE: We are seeing many Delays with USPS. USPS Priority Mail 1-Day, 2-Day or 3-Day is only an estimate during normal times and IS NOT a Guaranteed Delivery.
As per the USPS Website: Alert: USPS is experiencing unprecedented volume increases and limited employee availability due to the impacts of COVID-19. We appreciate your patience and remain committed to delivering the holidays to you.
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE WE HAVE SUSPENDED ALL
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING DUE TO UNPREDICTABLE DELIVERIES

INSIGHT OF THE MONTH:
Cast Bullet Leading
A clue to what is causing the leading is where the leading first begins to appear. If it appears near the chamber, chances are that bullet diameter or hardness are the cause.
A diameter too small and/or too hard an alloy will allow high pressure gas to leak past the bullet, which erodes the bullet and leaves leading near the chamber.
If the leading first appears on the leading edge of the rifling (if you imagine the bullet being pushed through the barrel, you will note that one edge of the rifling does most of the work of imparting a spin to the bullet. This is the edge you see when you look through the barrel from the breech end) the bullet might be too soft, and/or the velocity too high.
A good rule of thumb for maximum velocities when using liquid alox is 1400 feet per second for plain base bullets and 2200 feet per second when using gas check bullets. Bore conditions will require you increase or decrease this velocity slightly to prevent leading.
If the leading appears in the second half of the barrel, the bullet is running out of lube. You should see a star shaped pattern of lube accumulate on the muzzle. This is an indication that there is a little excess lube.
