I shoot S&B but have a 1-10 twist. Shoots good and have used this ammo on deer. Reloading S&B brass, not so good. It seems hard and I get a lot of neck splits when I re-size. Norma works better for me when reloading.

another good tip--I have a local buddy who is the re-loader king but he has a 6 and 8 station reloader,I'm not sure what that means, but he says he needs to see if the brass (22 HP) will fit one of his "plates" (whatever that is )and he has never reloaded 30-30--so--see--I'm still learning

I just cancelled an ammo order from reeds. I tried for 3 weeks to place an order and I don't know what his problem is but he wasen't able to get my Debit or credit cards to work. I finally cancelled and ordered from another seller and the order was confirmed in less than 5 min.. so has anyone else had a problem with him.. this is a first with anyone selling to me.

No, just the opposite....I did my order online 100% and had no issues what so ever... Got an instant confirmation and first two boxes showed up less than a week later. I placed two separate orders within 10 or so minutes b/c I found something else that I wanted to try and the free shipping made it no different than had it been one big order. They must not have figured it out as I got the first two boxes but the second order has not shown up.

Opps... turns out, I spoke way to soon... I no longer endorse Reed's ammo in the least... I will create a new post.

I have been known to buy S&B ammo just to pull the bullets for reloading. I do also, have some extra if anyone needs or wants.
