Reloding equipment question from far far away land

Correct me if I'm wrong, but somewhere in a Brownells order amongst all the paperwork, isn't their a form with the name of whoever ordered the stuff,and it states they will be the end user of such gun parts?

Yes there is.

But that is for 'gun parts' and gun parts alone. There are no regulations on reloading tools, or any tools for that matter.

If they did regulate tool export, then every single wrench, socket and jack stand made by Snap-on, Mac, or Cromwell would have to be controlled and tracked.

im clueless on the matter, but if that is so, that should meen that you cant buy it as a lets say christmas gift to someone, since you are not going to be the end user ?. Sounds a little "weird". I can see the point in this if the items where lets say gun powder and bullets maybe, but for "tools". As said, i have no clue. But hopefully someone have,

You've got some of the best powder and bullets right in Sweden...

Wholesale Sports and Cabelas are the big retailers. A great source of reloading gear is P&D Enterprises in Edmonton. Send them an email or a phone call.

P&D and Wholesale do not ship Internationally. Cabelas.ca doesn't specify either way.
 
Graf & Sons will also ship internationally. www. grafs.com (Just remove the space after triple w) I've got a big order on the way from them right now. They ship via FedEx, but if you call, they may ship via USPS if you ask. They did so for me. Just depends on how fast you want your stuff.

The end user thing is there for restricted-export articles. It does not apply to non-restricted articles.
 
Ted,
let me know what reloading tools you want, I will find out what it cost to buy it here and ship it to Sweden for you. There is no restriction on sending reloading equipment out of Canada. Send me a private message with the info.

If you look on www.ebay.ca (not ebay.com) there is a lot of new reloading stuff. Most of those sellers are in the USA and will ship anywhere in the world, the prices are not bad. Have look - it might be better price to buy there and ship direct from USA to Sweden than to buy in Canada and ship to Sweden.

I have used LEE tools for years. I like their dies very much, better than most. The LEE cast iron press is very good quality. The RCBS Rockchucker is excellent quality.

The RCBS reloading kits are good quality for the price, and so are the LEE kits.

All the commercial Swedish ammo that I have used is boxer primed just like north american ammuntion is. The reloading tools will work fine.

Thanx for the answer, ill send you a pm shortly.


Also thanx to "Henry Nierychlo" for the info in the pm i got from you, that i cant answer, your settings doesnt allow you to recive pm's.
 
Bullets(projectiles) are probably your most expensive component, so if you have access to cheap lead(Pb), and space and time for another hobby, casting is an alternative. For my 11,15X60R mauser, 385 grains(25gram) of lead and 14 grains(0.9gram) of a shotgun powder. Fun and inexpensive. Be safe
 
Ted/Zetjan: just had to say that I love the "Huntard" label!! I'm more of a "shootard" myself but I have quite a few of my good friends are huntards.

Are you looking for reloading tools (for example press, dies, scales), or are you looking for reloading components (powder, brass, bullets, primers)?
 
Yes, the "huntard" nickname is kinda funny =), translated "word by word" the translation gets moore like "hunting idiot" but when put into one word, "huntard" is moore accurate, and we looove accuracy in here ! =D


Im almost only interested in the equipment needed to begin with, or atleast untill i can find a doable way of getting bras, bullets and maybe moore shipped here. Althou im guessing powder and primers might be a huge "will never happen".

Brass will probably not be a problem for now, having around 600 one shot brass in the closet. Cant see the problem for customs to allow bullets to be sent, i meen, its copper... in small pieces....



Edit:

And now for something completly diffrent !.
Just for fun, and to annoy the #### out of myself...
The main caliber i will be reloading is .308 for my Remington LTR ( love it on a side note ).
And after been out hunting this moorning with my baby, i rememberd that i forgot to check what it costs on the other side of the lake.
And made myself sad panda..

First page google found in US that had it 980$
http://www.impactguns.com/remington-700-ltr-308-light-tactical-rifle-5739-047700257396.aspx

What i paid here, oh not so much moore, just a measly 1980 ish $...

Unfortunately this is not completely correct.
Automated reloading equipment is ITAR regulated.

Here is an example of this.

Nor is all automated reloading equipment.I went through this with one of my progressive presses. As long as the automation is still controlled by hand or foot and the end product is for personnel use is not regulated. That is what I was told at the time .Example are hydraulic reloaders.
