Custom Ammo Loaders?
Looking to have some custom ammo loaded, preferably in IL, though not mandatory.

RE: Custom Ammo Loaders?
go buy some reloading equipment, get the local gunshop owner to show you how to work it and load your own. You will get better results as you can test fire every different load you work up so see what really works best. With custom ammo, unless you are sending them your rifle to work the loads with, all you are getting is somebody elses work. You tell them you want this bullet weight, and that primer, and that powder...etc. You will most likely save money picking up the equipment and doint it yourself.

Do like this gentleman has recommended. Don't know about how much you'll save. The more yopu shoot, the more you save. BUT you will definitely be able to make EXACTLY what you want to shoot in your guns, and will NOT have to rely on someone else to load the correct ammo for you! (This is ALWAYS problematic!!)
