    Can someone reload S&W 500 rds?

    Anyone reload s&w 500 in sacramento/elk grove area? Not sure if this should be in this section or not, but I'll pay someone to reload about 100 rounds 500rds.

    I reload the 500. That being said your trusting your life and at a minimum your hands to someone you dont know to save a few dollars. I can tell you for a fact that the 500 is a massive explosion and one mistake with the powder could kill you and anyone around you.

    Still want someone to reload for you? Better idea would be to get a redding single stage press and do it your self. I use H110 powder by the way. Also if you get the titanium nitride dies it is much smoother resizing.

        It's unlawful to reload ammo for sale without a license.
        MrKubota above is a licensed reloader.

            Do you want your stuff reloaded because you cant find factory ammo? If so, I always see a lot of .500 S&W ammo at Bass Pro Shops in Manteca. Its pretty much the only stuff that dont sell fast. Its not cheap but having hand recontruction surgery or having you face put back on aint ether.

                I load for 500 because i dont like the factory loads, I picked up about 80 factory rounds years ago and ended up selling them and reloading for it,

                I use Rex 2, H-110 and Trail Boss, all good to shoot, from 900 fps to my max of 1500 fps with Berrys double striked 350gn

                I need to find some nice bullet moulds and cast some soon, but anything over 1500 fps is too hot for me, 8 3/8" barrel is unreal in accuracy

                Find a local reloader and buy some LEE Dies, they work great for $

                good luck!

                    HA!

                    Try shooting 700gr slugs at 1500fps.

                      I'm thinking of going in on the Mould for that 700gn monster, but no way i'll be sending it at 1500 fps! no way! Maybe I'll stick with a 440gn lee mould... still thinking...

                            Start reloading for yourself.
                            You could pay back a simple single stage setup in about 100 rounds of 500S&W ammo reloaded.
