    Fill sand for rear rest

    I am buying the Edgewood to replace a bag I bought decades ago because the old bag isn't tall enough. I'm pretty sure I filled this old bag with Zircon heavy sand and want to duplicate the fill.

    What have you done in the reloading room today

    Finally shot up all of my 308 loads that didn't work out and back to reloading today. Loaded up (100) 168 GR SMK over 45 GR AA2520. Spent the rest of the afternoon checking brass for separation cracks.

    = Verified with PV/Alliant customer service = Alliant to suspend canister powders significantly - Time for comparable powder substitutions again

    I wasn't planning to order any powder soon but ordered some tonight just in case. Weather is too nice to run out of ammo. @LiveLife thanks for the heads up.

    help picking a press

    I look in each case before seating with my 550 and also my T7. Of all the speed gains offered by the various presses not checking each case before seating isn't one to be sacrificed. I have never had a squib.

    IWB Holster Design

    Kydex is hard and feels hard when worn. Leather is softer. The flatter the holster is the more comfortable. As JTQ says these are not comfortable worn at 3:00.
