- In this video, I'll take you through the basic reloading process and show you what I do and share some of my thoughts for the .45 ACP. Enjoy! This is a fairly lengthy video, so grab some popcorn! I made this video for people considering the adventure of reloading and I think it will be interesting to them...
Here's a list of some of the equipment that I used in this video:
Lee Reloader Single Stage Press
Lee autoprime tool
Lee autoprime shellholder set
Lee .45ACP dies
Rcbs casemouth brush
Dillon DCL case lube
Dillon case length gage
Rcbs shellholder
Lee trimmer and lock stud
Lyman Universal Trimmer
L.E. Wilson primer pocket tool
Frankford Arsenal DS-750 Electronic Powder Scale
Lee funnel
Home Depot digital calipers...
This is the only channel I send people to for reloading. Thanks for taking the time to share your expertise Jits
Thank you! That means a lot to me. :-)
I wish schools would teach math and science the way this guy teaches reloading.
gvic vic Thank you
i feel like I just took a course in realoading, your vids are very informative thank you
I have wanted to learn to reload but have no experts close by to draw experience from. Your video has taken the “ mystery” out of the general process and I feel confident in that I can do this. Thank you for the well made video...
out of all the books and videos. I think your baic aproach and direct instructions has converted me to start hand-loading myself. I love the single press method, And your instructions need to be in book format. Im sure down the road Id have 100 questions, but for our 40sw xdm and 45 glock, and soon to be a 45 xd. You made this ol boy real happy. THANK YOU FOR THE TIME YOU MADE AND SHARED IN YOUR VIDEO.
lol, the beginning is exactly what I do at my club... the best is when I see someone shooting a caliber I want, and they leave a nice fresh pile. Music to my eyes!
Thank you! The rockchucker is a great press. I love lee dies too! Thank you for the kind words and support you give my channel! Have a great day! :)
Huge thank you for this video as well as all your other loading videos. This week I loaded my first batch of 45 acp Thank you!!
Rock on!
I love the opening. VERY Familiar sights and sounds. I think I spent more time collecting brass at the range than I did shooting.
I'am a very old loader. Started about 1957. Great presentation. I learned some new things. Many thanks.
Wow! My mother was born in 57'... I'm humbled! Thank you for the kind words and support you give my channel!
My favorite dies are my Hornady dies but being I do not want to replace my Lee and rcbs dies since I already have them, I bought a 6 pack of Hornady lock rings to replace the rings that came on my Lee and rcbs dies and now I don't have to adjust my dies every time I switch them.
$20 had saved me a ton of time of readjusting my dies.
Good videos!
Thanks for the video. Very careful, methodical, and complete. Three years old and still lots of folks watching.
+SouthernMan thank you!
There’s 4 pistol bays side by side at my outdoor range. I used to love it when people would pull up and shoot for 20-30 mins and leave. I would walk over there once they left, and pickup all the .45 brass they left.
It’s crazy. You’re leaving money on the ground
I've only used the old style Lee Loader for my loading. Seriously considered getting a press like this. Nicely done, well presented.
I fall asleep to the popping sound when depriming. Very calming
Thanks for this video! You are the reason I got into reloading in 2013 and I’m sitting in my garage reloading 45ACP listening to the video once again 7 years later.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. I really appreciate the detailed explanations, it's much easier to learn when you're taught how and why rather than just a how to.
A beautiful pair of videos. I've learned a lot. Thanks.
Thank you!
I am just getting into this hobby. My father in law is a walking encyclopedia on this stuff. Way back when we first met we were in his wood shop and I saw six 5 gallon buckets overflowing of tire weights. That's when I learned about all this. Can't "weight" to get involved. He has dies for about 12 or so different calibers. Thanks for the vids!
just bought the hornady lnl classic kit, got my table cut n drilled, all set up, and up to that day i watched this video nonstop, getting more n more excited. thank you for making this! so efficient and informative.
Excellent video. Thank you for posting.
Great video. I enjoyed above all how well organized you are. THANKS!!!
Appreciate the education on the reloading process & sharing some personal insight.
This video got me into reloading. I will be purchasing some equipment and items. Thank you! Looks fun
Really liked this video! Very informative. Gonna help me get started reloading 45 ACP
Thanks for posting !
Perfectly visualized and perfectly explained! Thank you!
My first batch of 45 acp worked well. Totally inspired by you and your explanation made me confident with my technique. Much appreciated.
Tianyao Lu Sweet! That's awesome thank you for the kind words and support glad I could help out
JIUJITSU2000 You are very welcome. We should thank you for your hard work and contribute wot the reloading community.
Thank you for the step by step process! Looking at starting reloading and this was very helpful!!!
Thank you very much for a very informative video. I really liked the detailed walk-through on the different steps of reloading.
Great breakdown on the steps, really helpful to see. Will be getting into it this fall/winter.
I've watched your casting video too and now feel some confidence that I may be able cast and reload without injuring myself. I'm 77 so can spend time being patient;-) Thanks for the good work.
Thank you for the kind words and for supporting my channel. That's cool that you are also into reloading. It's a very fun hobby. Have a great day! :)
Awesome step by step tutorial!!! ... every beginner should watch this video before any other. Thank you!
I'm watching your video 9 years later I just have to say you are an inspiration man you should keep teaching reloading your a good teacher I agree with you about factorie ammo I like that like c press too I use for all kinds of things
Thank you, Blessings from Arizona!
You have done a very good job very thorough. It will be very hard to top your work. Thank you!!
Great videos! Very knowledgeable and very detailed. Perfect for someone who's just getting into reloading. Looking forward to more videos.
Outstanding! Extremely well done and informative. Just bought my first reloader and armed with your knowledge as a base, will read the instruction manual and start making my own!
Excellent video. Very clear concise and informative. Cheers!
I just finished watching your reloading guides(melting lead to ingots, casting the bullets and reloading them). Thank you so much for explaining every little detail of the procedure. Although I do not know if I will ever get as far as casting my own bullets, I learned so much that I feel like you gave me great head start into reloading. Again, I thank you so much for these videos.
Excellent video. Thank you for explaining this process so clearly.
Thank you!
I thoroughly enjoyed your video/tips....I have 1000 .45 ACP already primed, now I need to do the flare, powder, seat, and crimp....scary when you never have done it before...and it's for a friend/MM Brother of mine! I'll get it right, now that I've seen your video and Thank You for serving our Country!
Great video. The camera angle and step-by-step guide was very helpful. Thanks!
Run 50 thank you
I love hunting for brass. It's like finding money. Keep up the great videos!
Great job again. I love how explain everything.
Great video! Thanks for the helpful hints throughout the video. I'm all ready to give this a shot...No pun intended!
What a great video! Thanks for taking the time to shoot this video and share your knowledge.
Great video, clear, understandable and informative. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words and also for the support you give my channel. I also appreciate the info on the dust. I had no idea! have a good night. :)
Thank you for this video, I've watched it countless times!!
Thank you for the video. The best I have seen, very clear and to the point.
Thank you! I think this is the only reloading video that I have where I didn't trim. I don't trim my .45 brass that often. My bullets fire and feed just fine. I had the same problem that you mentioned before. I trimmed my brass and it didn't change anything. I seated my bullets a little deeper and it fixed the problem for me. Have a good day! :)
Very informative video. I liked the detail that was given and the close-up pictures.
+Clayton Hay thank you so much for the very kind words and positive support that you give my channel
Very down to earth explanation of every process.... easy to follow and understand....thanks
Thank you for the video. It's straight forward and shows how easy it is to start.
You're absolutely welcome and thank you for stopping by!
I've watched quite a few videos and this was the best step by step explanation. I think I'm ready to start now. Thank you!
You're absolutely welcome! I'm glad to have been able to shed some light on the reloading experience for you. Thank you for supporting my channel and also for the kind words! Have a great evening! :)
thank you for the reloading videos, they have been very informative
i look forward to starting up reloading as a hobby now that i have an understanding of how it works.
Really enjoyed your presentation. Will save it as a bookmark to review again..GOOD JOB!!!!
Thank you! :-)
Dude you have great videos. Super easy to follow and understand.
Buddy, I really like how you explain all the little details of your work! You don't assume the viewers know everything and you give reasons why you do or don't do something, instead of just blowing thru the process just to get to the end result. I'm just a few pieces of equipment away from reloading myself, and your .45ACP and 30-30 videos are going to be a tremendous help (those are the 2 calibers I'll be loading 1st) when I'm ready to rock & roll! Thank you!
The range we use requires that we pick up our brass. I must have a couple of thousand rounds in two of those five gallon buckets. Tried to sell them on the marketplace and ebay but no takers. So now I know what to do with 'em. My better half will be upset with the initial expense of the reloading hardware but will be delighted at at the savings over box ammo. Several years ago I was reloading 12 gauge but sold those as it got to be a chore to shoot skeet. .45 is is ever so much more precise and she has a blast shooting her GI 1911. Am going to show her this video and maybe get two of these presses so she can do the resizing while I do the expanding. Now that we are both retired, this will be a great couple bonding time. Along with the range and wild shooting. Thanks ever so much for this multifaceted video!
Excellent explanation ! Thank you.
Love this video, great refresher
Watched the whole series from extracting lead to final bullets. A ton of knowledge, thank you.
Alos realized how much work that is to reload bullets. I guess one really needs to like this.
One of the best reloading video's I have seen, well done.
thanks for taking the time to explain all the steps and why you're doing them very helpful for beginners :)
+fpstina Thank you for the kind words and support you give my channel! Have a great day!

Just finished up the entire video. And thank you so much for getting me on my way
very well done vedio. Easy to follow. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I always wondered how bullets were made, you sir just showed me a series of videos from scratch. Nicely done!!!
Thank you! I'll try that and see how they do. Have a good evening! :)

This was an amazing video, I learned a lot! Thank you!
Walter Shmitty Thank you!

Excellent video, I thank you very much.
Great job like always. I've seen your other videos on 223, 3006 and now this. All equally great. Very informative. keep them coming. great job....

Thanks for this video, my wife and I shoot 300-500 rounds a week, and reloading seems to be the next logical step. This video has a lot of great information that I will reference in the future when I get my press.
thank you!
Excellent Video! I plan on reloading in the future and now have an idea of all the steps involved.
Cool! Have fun!!
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words and the support to my channel. Have a great day! :)
Thank you! I appreciate your support to my channel and the kind words. Sometimes I feel that my video's are a bit on the long side. I'm trying to change that by going a little faster. I don't want to skip anything though. Have a great evening! :)
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Excellent step by step video, I reloaded my first 50 .45 acp cartridges watching this video. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
Thank you! That's awesome!
Im new to reloading and this video has all the information i was looking for! thank you!
Thank you for you expertise -very nice video for a person like me that is just getting started with reloading. Thanks for sharing , I really enjoyed it!
Thank you!
Great video! I've watched it several times and used it to teach others .
+JON Gergeceff Thank you! I appreciate you stopping by and showing your support. Have a beautiful evening!
sir you have one of the best how to vids thank you for taking the time to make them
Thank you for the support and kind words. These bullets work just fine for me in my Springfield 1911. When I reload them I make my OAL just a bit shorter than what the manuel says. They feed good this way. Have a good day! :)
Great video, learned a lot that was obscure for me. You are an excellent instructor. Thanks
Love this video! I will be reloading my first batch of freedom pills soon and it will be .45ACP for my 1911. Also getting into bullet casting and Hi-Tek coating. You are a great teacher and I appreciate your contribution to reloading.
I just got my Frankford Arsenal tumbler kit in and set up, its great, buy man, that Lyman tumbler you have is BEAST!!
You make a good point of checking the primer pockets. I have a bunch of 45ACP brass that I just assumed took a large primer. Now I'm going to have to look at them again. I really enjoyed your video. Keep up the good work.
