I’m so glad to see you make another reloading video. Your older videos were such a big help when I started reloading. So much so, I’ve watched them multiple times over the years. Merry Christmas!

Being now @77 years and retired from all shooting sports, I laud you on ypur efforts to teach the new comers! I would only add that in any recipe, when one deviates from it, it is good practice to start back @minimum & work up! Having started w/ loading while on military leave @20, using an entry level Lee Loader in a Ruger .44magnum, Super Blackhawk, I also laud your choice of a straight wall pistol cartridge & Unique powder! It is always to be stressed that using data from a VERY reliable source, will keep your hands and eyeballs intact! AND, always wear good eye protection, not only while shooting, but @the loading station as well! ALSO, follow the safety guidlines that're published in every reliable manual - many of which I haven't addressed. Happy loading...

Reloading looks like work but in reality, I find it very relaxing to do. I have built my collection of reloading machines so that I can reload anything I need. since I have been reloading for 25 years, I have always stocked up on supplies so the politics of the day do not hinder my hobby. Reloading allows you to have a few thousand rounds stored ready for use when you need it.

I do really appreciate your videos and maybe you'd be happy to know in the past you are the one who taught me how to reload the .223rem. 😁💪

WoW!! It's great to see you back at reloading stuff again.....

High quality reloading.

So glad to see more reloading videos! Merry Christmas!

I’ll never load my own rounds, but it was cool to see all the different aspects of reloading.

I've missed your reloading videos. Well done!

Merry Christmas and thanks for putting the reloading back on the tube

Great video!!! Love the details.

Thanks! Your videos is what got me started!

Really well done! 👊👍

Awesome! A reloading video Woohoo!!! Love watching your reloading videos.

Great idea with the O-Light ! Merry Christmas !

I missed this type of videos welcome back jiujitsu

I reload, have done it for years. Here's my top 5 list 1 not everyone should reload. It takes a substantial investment in money and time. The materials can be dangerous. If you are easily distracted, like to take shortcuts then perhaps you should consider another hobby. 2 legally you need to be a specific FFL to sell your reloads. A lawyer on retainer also helps. 3 treat your reloading press and dies better than you treat your firearm, clean, properly lubed, dies can build up lube, metal shavings, scratches, keep an eye on them 4 check your scale calibration with a certified weight in the range of you powder charge. Not many powder charges are 50 grams 5 check you caliper with a guage block in the range or your cartridge overall length. Loading handgun rounds, 25mm or an inch, rifle rounds 75mm or 3 inches Next five 6-10 6 a decapping die used on dirty cases lets you knock the primers out before wet cleaning, it will give you pretty primer pockets 7 it is possible to find crimped pockets on 40S&W as well as 9mm, 5.56 and 762x51. This makes it hard/impossible/dangerous to insert a fresh primer. There are tools to correct this problem. 8 SAAMI Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute is the source of the drawings. They have free drawing pdfs of all cartridges that have even more details 9 SAAMI also has recommendation for storing primers and powder 10 Keep your load data with your ammo. This includes date made, powder, bullet, powder weight, trim length, overall length, primer, and possibly case manufacturer. This will come in handy when you have a problem. Sure it isn't as easy as throwing them all in an ammo case, but it will help you someday

I have been reloading for many years...still love watching others reload as well, especially rounds that I have not reloaded yet... Keep ON ROCKING IT!...JIUTJITSU2000......P.S. Happy New Year!......

Nice to see a new reloading video, I enjoy seeing pistol ammo loaded on a single stage press and the methodical way you work. Quality stuff, keep it up!

Merry Christmas Skeet. This video brought back some memories... I've been following you since the beginning. Semper Fi... Shoot lots and stay safe.

Thanks, Man. I always refer to your videos before I load a different calibre or if I haven’t done any reloads for a while. Solid info, great advice and always consistent. Showing different tools and explaining how they work is always appreciated. Keep up the great work from flashlights to ammo.

Again a seriously well instructed video 👍👍

Excellent Skeet, so happy your doing some reloading vids…this originally how I found your channel so many years ago. I just finished some 38 special loads myself. Primers, especially small pistol primers, are very hard to find and if you do they are so expensive. As always very thorough and informative video!

i was thinking about getting into reloading and watching your videos showed me how easy it can be and i shoot 40 all the time so was thinking about getting into it thanks for the knowledge

This is super cool! very detail/thorough (The DO's and DON'Ts) reloading video! I'm going to try this because I just got into .40s&w. Merry Christmas Jujitsu!

Phenomenal video- new to reloading and this encourages me to learn more. You’re a natural teacher!

Thanks for this great video. Merry 🎄 Christmas. Love ya, Mom

Very helpful and clear actually started reloading the 40 S&W off your videos

Of the many many reloading videos I've seen, this is the most thorough and comprehensive video I've seen. You explain the why and how in every step which many videos lack. Excellent and outstanding video!

Great video! Can you make a Video on common Mistakes / Issues and how to recognize and correct them? Merry Christmas!

I just found your channel last week and found it very detailed. Particularly, I like the way you give every detail you can think of while doing the task and this is how quality ammo can be produced. I was so encouraged that I have ordered a Lee single stage press kit.

Nice man, Merry Christmas!!

Love your content. And a huge thank you for your service

Love it! Reloading again :)

Great job brother. Before I started reloading I took a class with two fellas that have reloaded for years. We went through some reloading steps with little expectation. I have gotten so much clarity in the reloading process watching your videos, I thank you very much. Keep up the excellent 👌 work my friend. Take care and God bless.

Great detail... appreciate it!

Good video man. Very informative. I always learn something from reloading videos.

I’ve been thinking about starting to reload my on pistol ammo. I watched this entire video and you have taught me more about reloading than I have ever learned from friends! Very informative and a very good video! Thank you and god bless!!

I have to agree with shamfrod. Your earlier videos have been instrumental in my reloading understanding. Thanks JiuJit.

What a great vid. Thank you!

Another great reloading video, even better its .40s&w! I learned to reload several years ago by watching your 38special video

Hello! I'm so glad the reloading clips are back up!!! I have them all and thanks to you being so detailed and precise I am learning and following your advice! Thank you, stay healthy bro!!!

Thanks again, good pointers.

Awesome video!

Thank you so much for your videos. I’m just getting into reloading and your step-by-step explanations really help. Subscribed!

Thank you for this video, as a newbie looking to enter the reloading world it was very thorough and informative. You are much appreciated 👍

Merry Christmas. Try a cup of simple green, dash of dawn soap and a tablespoon of lemishine in the tumbler.

Great introductory video. I knew nothing about reloading other than my father handing me completed cartridges to package as I was a child. I would like to reload .45ACP someday and this video made reloading look a lot less daunting than I had imagined it to be. Thank you. Heading off to buy some books :)

I'm going to dive into it head first so I'm checking out videos at random when I came across yours very informative precise and necessary for beginners such as myself have a blessed day❤

It's awesome to see you do another reloading video. I have really missed seeing them on your channel and I hope you continue to do them. Thanks and God bless!

Finally got time to watch👍🇺🇸

I’m new to reloading and this was such an awesome video to help give me the confidence and answer any question that I had! Thank you!!!

watched, commented and watched all the commercials so you make $ and gave a 👍 just cause you did a video on my favorite and ideal cartridge caliber, ie; .40 s&w!👍😎🍻⚡🔥💪💥

great video and great information

Good video! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

your reloading videos are so interesting to watch. I don't even live in America, guns are straight-up illegal in where I live. Yet I still found myself binging your videos lmao

Love the intro

Greetings JJS2000: Glad to see you back into reloading. I'm fairly new to the process & it's a blessing to see an experienced person go thru the steps. I realize it's mostly common sense once you get into it, but it's uplifting to see how other people deal with & correct the occasional hiccup. When you decapped the misaligned primer from the case, did you soak it in water first or simply reinstall the decap die & punch it out dry? Also, thank you for covering the points you made regarding your not trimming the cases & how it plays into the crimp procedure & the final outcome of the completed cartridge. Great Job on the video. I'm glad I was able to watch it prior to my going back to the reload bench. It sure helped me understand the process & what occurs as the case is married to the bullet & you addressed some of the questions lingering in the back of my mind the last time I was reloading... JGA

Jiujitsu!!! Awesome I actually own my own school. Definitely want to get into reloading.

I changed to Dillon case after watching your videos it definitely makes a difference. Also nobody else explains it the way you do that a plus. Honestly I haven't been able to watch too many of your videos lately due to work and why are there so many flashlights I'm sorry dude they're basically the same probably have same power outage. Watch everything though Merry Xmas and next videos 🌲❄️☃️

Very nice informative video. When prepping the case do you need to trim, chamfer and debur similar to loading rifle ammo?

I’m from Brazil e I learned how to reloading watching this channel. The video about how to reload 9mm I watched many and many times. Thank you very much my american friend, God bless you!...

Been reloading for 55 years so you get set in your own ways but interesting to see what young folks do today. So set in my ways I was thinking paint your block walls and improve your lighting two ways. 😂

Good morning brother from Syracuse NY and Merry Christmas everyone

I really like your reloading videos. You are very great at explaining what you're doing. Why do you do it. where to get the info. What you'er looking for. The biggest thing is how an average person can reload using a single stage press from Rifle to Pistol. This is what my dad had growing up, the old Rock Crusher in 1975 reloading 300 win mag the gun was New and the Reloading Press was new.

Excellent video! can you tumble the brass after depriming the brass? thanks

Need more of these videos Skeet...

Jiu-jitsu I think you are the best in reloading videos. You’re very precise and knowledgeable. I loved your 9 mm Reloading video. Thank you for being on KZfaq.

Simply for those who aren't familiar with reloading, you can get a Lee Six Pack Pro progressive press (round of ammo for every pull of the handle) for about $224. Another $400 will get you the dies, plates, powder measure, bullet feeder and bushings to get you churning out pistol ammo at about a box every 8 minutes.

thank you !

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Thanks brand new to reloading. Starting with 44 mag. Any tips that you didn't mention in this very detailed and informative video ?

Merry Christmas

God, What the hell was i thinking when i tried to make a new cartridge on day 1 of my own reloading

When setting up carbide sizing dies, I always did the same thing by giving it an extra 1/16th turn and over-camming just a little. But a few weeks ago my brother came by while I was resizing, and he threw a fit. He said that over-camming should only be done with steel dies and that carbide dies can crack. He just screws it down until it touches the ram and leaves it alone, and I’m curious to get your take. I’ve always loved your videos Jiujitsu!

New to reloading. When you seat the bullet can you crimp then or is it better to crimp like you did after the seating process

In this year of 2023 I've been finding primer anvils that are bent out of shape and probably will not work correctly. I inspect all primers, brass and even smell and look for powder identifying characteristics.

A bullet mold is priceless because if you have lead to cast, you will never run out of bullets (or "projectiles" if you will). I find that people are too enamored with copper/brass jacketed bullets to deal with cast lead. If you adjust your muzzle velocity down - cast lead does the same job as jacketed. +P loads are inaccurate as hell. Lead bullets can fracture when it hits bone, it is what you want to happen.

I take the lowest value and the highest value from a few different books and try to get right in the middle for powder weight seems to work if you see anything unusual it might be an error if 10 different things are very similar and one weight is too much or too little it's probably wrong

Where do u get your powder loading guide from the high and low powder charge

what brand case length gauge do you use?

case length gauge...is it designed to make sure the case WITH the bullet aren't too long? I thought they were just for an empty case to check if they need trimming or resizing. Confused because you said if you don't have one, you can use your barrel, but you can't see in your barrel to know the length. Thanks

In the crimping stage, wouldn't you be able to crimp and set the bullet length at the same time? you get the desired bullet length, then back out the top threads, then get the desired crimping, and move the top threads back to get the proper bullet length. is that an option do both things in the same step?

Notice jiu jitsu has a case gauge checker you can get those from evolution gunwerks and they make sure that the bullet will go into the chamber and doesn't have any dents or protrusions

I'm just getting into reloading and I cannot find any 12 gauge or 410 new or used unprimed hulls. I'd rather use new hulls since I'm new at this. Any ideas where to look for these? Thanks!

Dear jiu jitsu I like how you have the high powder weight and low powder weight and then the average in the middle is a safe way to do it,,, always insisting to use the lowest powder weight, with two little powder you can get a squibb round right or or not operate the slide properly on a semi auto right?

I saved your video in case it's taken down

Any concerns with brass having case bulge if originally shot through a Glock?

👍

Loading .40 shell primed and empty it gauges perfect, but when I’m seating the bullet it bowes the case out. Not sure why it’s happening.

are you using lubricant with carbide dies? I thought that wasn't neccesary?

Is it important to prime before resizing and taper? Or, can I Resize, taper and then prime?

I'm interested in seeing an update on Kennys knife... how's it holding up?

When you look at all the supplies needed sometimes you think it might be cheaper just to buy ammo but if you buy shells and reload them a couple times that's when you save money

The powder measure looks like a device that people joke about to enlarge ones member, insert unit and crank handle for two min weelky

See how he puts the powder the lowest weight and the highest weight and then he has in the middle that's a good way to decide how much powder if you use the lowest value your slide may not operate on semi-autos or the highest you may blow up your revolver

How many times you can reuse the brass

did not realize there was so much to reloading.

What is that light, you are useing

Didn’t know you could use a 10mm projectile in 40 sw casings
