    Reloading .40 s&w brass

    Does anyone know of a place I can send off my .40 s&w brass to get reloaded? Is it worth getting it reloaded in terms of cost?

      me and some friends had quite a bit of problems firing bunch of loadx 45 acp semi wad cutters out of a bunch of differnt 1911's. it seemed like no matter what gun and mag combination we used 90% of the rounds would jam. finally got down to measuring the OAL and like i suspected most of the bullets were way off

      I thought it was just the 45 acp until i bought some 40 from them and had the same problem, not as bad as the 45 but ended up with about 150 rounds out of 500 that couldnt be fired.

            One pound of Viht N320 powder $33.00

            Total cost for 1k customize rounds is about $200.00
