If you have a specific cartridge you would like to see added to this page, send me an email at the link below and I will add it. Loading data can be found already on most cartridges by doing a websearch. However, if you are interested in something you haven't been able to find, let me know and I will see what I can find for you.

Links to other helpful reloading sites can be found at the bottom of the page. I have used these sites
myself a lot over the years and am sure they will be helpful to you as well.

CAUTION
If you have been reloading a while you may have seen this. If not, I want to make sure you do. The pictures below are examples of Case Head Separation. These are my casings. I followed all the reloading rules and checked my brass after every firing, inside and out. I still had 2 casings out of 50 that "let go" after only 4 firings. I used a paper clip to check the inside of the casings and was not using HOT loads, in fact I was 2.0 grains less than max because I was firing in a pistol instead of a rifle. Just remember that every case is different and they can let go even when all the rules are followed. If you find this, make sure to remove that entire lot of brass and do not use any of them again. Be Safe!


I have developed some useful Excel spreadsheets that I have found helpful when reloading. On these sheets you will find my standard load documentation sheet, directions on how to input data in this sheet, a 10% load calculator, and a calculator to figure std. deviation, energy, and other usefull information. Check it out if you think it may be useful. You can download it by clicking on: Reloading Calculator
