NEW for 2018: Hornady Rotary Media Sifter
One activity that probably all reloaders hate is sifting media out of their cleaned pieces of brass. Should you de-prime first or not? Will it be easier to get all the media out? Did I miss any? Why has no one thought of an easy way to do this mundane task in the reloading process?! […]

The Rezvani Tank -Tactical Urban Vehicle
A bit of a warning to start with, this article is almost completely free from firearms. However the vehicle should suit and interest a lot of TFB’s readers. It’s like if 5.11 Tactical started making cars. The car’s exterior and design screams “drive me to the shooting range” or “take me hunting“. Preferably to a […]
