Don't want to be a wet blanket.....but......if you reload for someone else and make a profit......federal law requires that you have a license to manufacture ammunition.
I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do....just providing a "heads up" for anyone that might want to know.

Kelly let me know what you are needing. I would prefer to have the rifle though because all rounds work different in each rifle. I do this for customers all the time and then include all the loading info with it so that they can reproduce the loads.
I don't do it for money I trade supplies ;D
How many rounds are you wanting. Dallas reloading makes some awesome rounds at a great price in bulk. I will be picking up some 5,000 rounds of 223 during Thanksgiving if you need some.

If I'm buying factory stuff I get whatever is cheap and has a softpoint or hollowpoint bullet. Usually its the winchester in the white box sporting whatever bullet weight that I used to sight in the rifle. Different manufacturers rounds will shoot a little bit differently but if you're shooting P-Dogs it wont take very many shots to dial in the scope to the new round. If I'm calling coyotes I'll shoot a target to see if I need to adjust anything. I avoid FMJ's if at all possible, but thats just my preference.

Do you want 400 or 410 gr? What kind of bullet? Are you asking for load data or do you need some ammo? Have any brass handy? You big bore guys make my sholder hurt Just finished a 300 ultra mag this week and it was not fun to shot paper.

Gents, I consider myself a serious reloader. In fact, I not only haven't fired a single piece of factory assembled ammunition in many years now, but I don't even hunt with ammo that I haven't first shaken down thoroughly. In other words, I only hunt with ammunition that I know constitutes the most accurate load (depending on how far I'm shooting) for the particular rifle in question. Consequently, I truly own what I do when I reload and I love doing it!
So I'd love to reload for anyone here, as long as they're willing to make the sacrifices necessary to have it done the way it's supposed to be done. For example, anyone for whom I reload MUST submit the rifle for which they want custom ammunition or at least spend the time with me at a suitable range to get it done right. Also, they need to have ready all equipment (e.g. cartridge components, dies, propellants, and any caliber/cartridge specific tools I don't have myself) and I'll do all the labor . . . and your ammo will be PERFECT! 'Cause I do everything to customize ammunition that can possibly be done (e.g. weigh bullets and cases, measure cases, trim cases, neck size only, uniform primer pockets, ream flash holes, chamfer necks, prime by hand only - not by press, weigh all powder charges 3 times to insure uniformity to within 1/10 of a grain, and seat all bullets to measure to within 1/1000 OAL of one another)!
In return, I will accept any offer to hunt on your land or disclosure of well kept secrets about outfitters/guides who offer hunting of various kinds at rock bottom prices!
Regards, Dave
