    First run on new flame annealer

    Had this a few weeks and have played with it a little using some scrap brass. Some Tempilaq came in the mail today, it was raining, so I tried a run of 120 pieces of 308 brass. I did a lot of reading and watching YouTube videos before setting this up and I'm glad I did. Took some time and...

    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.

    Raising the rear rest

    I have about 30 stall mats. I have no desire to cut one. Looking for donuts now.

    Raising the rear rest

    I have a Caldwell portable shooting bench that works out for me that has a hard plastic top. I have a heavy tripod rest for the front with pointed leveling screws that bite into the plastic and holds its position well. For the rear I have an old Eagle Brand rabbit ear bag with a rough out...
