Reloading Equipment from the USA

[Danny Fireblade]

I have been to the states around 4 times in the last 2 years and each time I max out my luggage allowance with reloading items.

Barnes bullets are particularly good value but everything is cheaper over there.

Ive never had an issue with bringing any items back with me, touch wood

If you’re main consideration is cost and accuracy, Lee is probably your best bet. Used is also a good option. No point importing unless it is unavailable in the UK.

Thanks very much! That’s very generous and much appreciated.

I have family in Denver and Phoenix, so addresses to send stuff to isn’t a problem. The real worry is whether TSA will make a fuss about brass or not.

These days it shouldn't be an issue at all. A few years back, there was a knee jerk response by the (then) administration, that increased scrutiny on export of anything firearms related. That has since passed, and common sense once again prevailed.

Only ITAR controlled stuff I can think of today, are high end thermals, NV and some electronic optics. Everything else, if it can go on a plane, is fine.
