LOL. At the price for new ammo, it doesn't take a lot of rounds to start. New, I can get for $2.50-$3.00 per round. (A bit more for tracer or incindiary rounds) I can reload for @ 80 cents a round and a lot more accurate.
@@trbig67 how much is a good reloading setup? Not discouraging your frugalness just wondering just how much I need to shoot before I start to see a return on investment. P.S. I know reloading is half the fun!
@Guitargreat As stated, that is what I pay to reload my ammo. BUT... I had to buy in bulk to get that price. Several thousand bullets. I had to buy the powder 48 lbs at a time. It's reclaimed military powder for $8 a pound. I saw 3 auctions on a gun site for the primers. Each auction was 1250 primers, which are normally @ 35 cents a piece, but are now closer to 50 cents. We were headed out on vacation so I put a ridiculously low bid on all 3 auctions. When I came back, I found out I won all 3, so 3750 primers for 8 cents a piece. So, that's how I have the price so low.
@@Aldenco99 I don't even remember. I just bought a piece here, a piece there. I have been reloading for most of my adult life, but when I bought the 50 cal, not a single thing I owned would work on the 50. But on the flip side, the 50 cal press has an adapter so I can use it to load everything else I have. Right now, everything is gone into the insane price range. I just saw 2 boxes of 525 count Remington Golden bullet .22 rimfire bullets go for $315. Small pistol primers are unobtainium right now.
Would you reload them in that exact order? Or would you set your tools and dyes up for de-priming, and de-prime all your rounds, then your re-priming, etc?
i will have husband watch this,,i know he will save money...50,s are very costly to shoot..i know they are pricey i bought him one...he loves it..yes it is fun too shoot..
You look like the janitor at my old school, not that that’s a bad thing. He was one of my favorite people at that gosh forsaken school. He was one of the nicest, most understanding, down to earth, and chill guys.
I've been reloading for over 30 years, I bought a 50 and THEN realized... absolutely nothing I had been using for reloading will work with the 50 BMG. It's just too big. All new stuff. I had to buy powder/primers/bullets in bulk, but I can reload at @ 80 cents per round, with 220gr of the powder I am using, but that's pulled/sized API (Armor piercing incindiary) bullets. New M33 ball FMJ (Full metal jacket) bullets are a bit more. But it's not too bad since you don't generally go to the range and shoot hundreds of times like an AR. I think the most we've ever shot at one time was with several people that wanted to shoot it a time or two. Maybe put 25 rounds down range. I now have an annealing machine for the case necks and only neck size the brass for reloads. (Bolt action rifle). This lets me get a lot more re-uses out of the brass. Brass alone for the 50 can be expensive. Thank you for the videos.
Thank you man. When I see your video I feel that I may buy a press, matrics and just start to learn reloading from scratch. Really thank you for peaceful and extremely helping video :). Loving it. I will also reload but will start with smaller calibers. But yours .50 its extremely money saving and also pure "man" mechanic work.
Seems like a bit of a long process but also looks like a ton of fun. And hey, 50 BMG, what more do you need to say... I save all my brass and hope to get the equipment to start reloading one day. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent thanks! Gettin this exact setup. I have everything 50 BMG related except the dang press lol. Currently I reload all my other calibers on the Lee Classic Turret but it won't do 50 BMG!
Well done video thanks. I reload .380s/.38spl/9mm &.44 magnums. Using a Forester single stage press I weigh each & every load, sure it takes more time but I know exactly what I've got using a digital scale. Might have been interesting to know your cost for components versus factory loads.
SSGT Badass, with the help of a buddy, I have started to dabble with reloading. So far, only have the means to reload 5.56. But, would love to eventually expand to 9mm, .357, and 45 acp. Have to admit, the 1st round I reloaded and shot, I was a little apprehensive. But, the Ar-15 did not blow up, so I must have done something right. Enjoy your daily( well maybe not the canning videos, lol) videos. Kidding aside, do love the channel.
This is actually something I needed to know. I just picked up a barrett and will more than likely be reloading my own rounds.... that's about the only way I'm going to be able to afford to feed this thing.
One question: In order to reload faster, did you think about looking for a small container that holds the exact quantity of gunpowder that you need to reload the round instead of using a scale to do that? I mean: You got the container for the gunpowder that if you fit it to the edge you have the exact g of gunpowder that you need, you clean everything that is over the edges with a rod, etc, a quick test on the scale for security and it is done. On this try you spend 25s with the measurement, with the other system ( if it is possible, maybe there is another issues) you could do it in like 5-6 seconds. A big difference. greetings!
HumA As I understand it you only measure black powder by volume, not smokeless. I hear that it isn't nearly as accurate as going by weight, then again I've never tested it
That is why I add the "quick test on the scale for security". There is a couple of physical factors, like the quantity of air between the grains, that can affect the measure so a quick test can prevent for that problem.
You can measure smokeless powder by volume. Most powder measures such as those found on progressive presses measure by volume. You just keep adjusting the volume of powder it drops until it drops that weight (charge) you were wanting. Lee even sells yellow measuring spoons that are marked in CCs, and are used for powder measuring based on their data. You could absolutely make a tool like what you're describing (you basically described a custom Lee measuring spoon). It would take a little messing around with to get just right, but it's certainly doable. You could not use it with different powders because they have different densities and would give you different powder charges than what you originally wanted, but if you have ONE powder and ONE charge weight that you want to use, you could do it.
@@samhouston1288 Yes, I don't know where he got that, but progressive reloading presses use volumetric measurement. Once I set the powder bar, I test it 10x, and if I've got it set to 5.40 gr, it will stay within +/-0.05 gr. (5.35-5.45 gr.)
Damn,brother. Your channel is a toy store for big boys and I fucking love it! P.S.: .50" AP...just in case we're fighting terminators, or an armored vehicle...or some dudes hiding behind that granite mountain.
That is a massive round, biggest round I reload is 10mm. I need to get a single press for necked cartridges so I can reload for all my rifles. You have a great set up and loading area.
Use RCBS they sent longer rods for the press ,, The neat thang is ,with a single shot bolt gat the oal can be played with , Did a study and found the best oal. ,for My barrel ,was told by the previous Owner that orbration ( nose wobble ) wouldn’t go to sleep till 400 yards . Not true ,I only have 100 yard range . Before I tweeked this setup it was Shooting 3 inches at 300 yards ,this equals 1 moa @ 100 yds. K . Now it’s One hole at 100 yds ,,boring ha .cant wait to stretch it out 🦆🦆
I don't even own a gun or have a license for that matter but for some reason you made it interesting enough that I still wat ched the entire thing. Curious tho, how much money are you saving per bullet?
A 10 or 20 round box of .50 is around $50 USD depending on the brand that makes them. And the price in the components that you purchase at the same price as one box can get you about double or more the quantity if reloading. Just like buying food.
Had a buddy who wanted a 338 lapua rifle. Told him he better learn to reload cause ammo aint cheap. He didnt believe me until I showed him some prices. He decided he didnt want one.
Im curious with all of reloading things. Do you buy the .50 bullet or you can just recycle it? Or only recycle the case? I dont own guns but youtube brought me here.
Never had to reload any 50, but I sure shot the shit out of it on the ship. We had pivot points around the ship, so that wasn't to bad. We would get 5 gal buckets, orange crates, anything that would float. Man, was that fun!!!
I hope you don't buy your 50 bmg powder in one pound containers all the time? I load 5.56 and I go threw a pound in a heart beat and your going threw it near 10 times as fast!
Great video!!! The 50 bmg is the same as loading any rifle ammo I've ever loaded. It just requires a bigger press and whole lot more gun powder. I see you measuring out the powder with a scale, isn't there a mechanical powder measure that will handle a 50 bmg charge?
very satisfying video. approximately how many shots can one casing withstand until it will be out of spec and unusable and unrepairable for the firearm? thanks.
What about flash hole deburring and neck truing/trimming? Unnecessary or overkill? Do you resize once fired brass out of the same rifle? How many times do you reload a case before checking for separation? Thanks for your video.
Lol, going from 9mm to .50BMG is funny. 5.5gr starting weight on one and 232gr of starting weight for the other. Like making koolaid for yourself and then for the whole the town.
Getting ready to start reloading .50 Beowulf and than work my way to .50 BMG what would be the best press to reload both rounds, thank you for your videos
Can you do me a solid and name the tools that you use in this video and the manufacturer? Future .50 reloaded here and loved the video! Thanx a mil for taking the time!
Do you remember the name of that radio you use at the start of your video? Love your videos by the way. Hope you and Sippy the best of luck in your future ventures.
50 bmg weather you buy factory ammo or reload is expensive 1 pound of powder on average cost around 30 bucks depending an theres 7000 grains in 1 pound of powder and using 260grains per round you get 25 or 26 rounds per pound so that 30 bucks already for 25 rounds then you got primers projectiles and brass if you bought it still fun to do an more fun to shoot nice
I buy in bulk and got stuff a lot cheaper. I buy reclaimed military powder in 48lb shipments for @ 7-8 bucks a pound. (I use 220gr and it's a bit on the hot side with this powder) Primers are generally 35 cents a piece. I bought 3,750 of them for @ 200 bucks.. a little over 5 cents a piece. You can buy pulled/cleaned/sized API bullets very reasonable and get those 1,000 at a time. New FMJ rounds are a bit more. But an API round complete costs me @ 80 cents a round. Considering you don't go shooting hundreds of rounds like an AR at the range, it's not too bad to shoot at all once you have the equipment. None of my other reloading gear would work with the 50. I think the most we've ever shot it at one time was @ 25 rounds, which comes to @ $20. That's lots of bang for your buck there!

BZA RZA GZA For Sure! I'm saving 3 bucks a round. just reloading one ammo can paid for all my supplies for every caliber I own.
maybe everything but my dies, I'll say that.
So instead of a 10 plus dollar per round, it's 7. That's almost a small box of shells
@@StepOneSurvival Dyes :)
@@Cryton12345 nope, it's a die.

(I use 220gr and it's a bit on the hot side with this powder) Primers are generally 35 cents a piece. I bought 3,750 of them for @ 200 bucks.. a little over 5 cents a piece. You can buy pulled/cleaned/sized API bullets very reasonable and get those 1,000 at a time. New FMJ rounds are a bit more. But an API round complete costs me @ 80 cents a round. Considering you don't go shooting hundreds of rounds like an AR at the range, it's not too bad to shoot at all once you have the equipment. None of my other reloading gear would work with the 50. I think the most we've ever shot it at one time was @ 25 rounds, which comes to @ $20. That's lots of bang for your buck there!
