FWIW, I am setting up to reload .223 in 55/62/69/75 gr with Lee Ultimate Turret Press and portable reloading setup for the range to do final powder charge with Deluxe PPM and bullet seating with Hand Press for exhaustive 0.1 gr increments to identify accuracy nodes for 18"/20" barrels (I can...

But that was done "intentionally" to reflect "real world" reloading conditions most will use the press under. Initially, I did sort test cases by headstamp then resized case lengths by .750" only to go, "Silly me, when will I ever sort cases by resized length?" 😁 I do measure sample cases by...

Based on .750" trim length, I am thinking OP is using 9mm. ;) When I did myth busting/confirming for 9mm OAL variance based on headstamp, measuring various headstamp "resized" case lengths measured .750" to be average median so I used .750" length cases for the myth busting -...

And that's why we do "myth busting/confirming" ... To get to the truth with measurable and repeatable factual data - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?search/781408/&q=myth+busting+confirming&c[users]=LiveLife&o=date For the past several years, I have embarked on 45,000+ round 22LR...

Great video. 👍 Information he presented aligns with reasons why I made the scope purchase choices I have made over the years (And why I no longer have some of the scopes) deserving enough to warrant myth busting/confirming thread in the "Long Gun Accessories and Optics" subcategory with full...

Thanks to @Dave DeLaurant, Mike Branson of Gideon Optics (formerly of Primary Arms and Swampfox discuss differences between $400-$1500 optics from Primary Arms compared to $2800 Nightforce and busts commonly held notions/myths about cheap vs expensive optics and confirms some others...

I agree with you as I already prefaced in my previous post that there are reloading variables and certain combinations of different components can produce differing outcome; specific to this thread discussion, neck tension and bullet setback. So my test results are not absolute but one...

Yes, with any progressive press, set up of dies are initially done with one case run through but final adjustment of dies is needed in "progressive mode" with shellplate full of cases as to account for variation in shellplate tilt/deflection from differing resizing effort/force. There are...

What I got from the polishing of feed ramp/chamber threads is when other members challenged your claims, you promised to back up your claims with a follow up video with factual measurements but that did not happen. Actually, TFL members were quite civil and polite compared to THR peanut...

Oh, I agree with you. I am doing the 0.1 gr "exhaustive" incremental powder workup as "myth busting/confirming" of identifying accuracy nodes as many reviews/workup I have seen did not repeat range testing for verification of powder charge ranges when obvious accuracy nodes were not identified...

I am retired and shot over million pistol/rifle rounds past 30 years (Not counting 22LR which runs into several hundred thousand rounds) spending over $170,000 just on reloading components and equipment (Up to 20 presses). :) And I took photography and yearbook photography in High School and...

Guardians of Galaxy among so many "hero" movies ultimately represent/reflect our own internal struggle/conflict as we confront and resolve issues from our childhood indoctrination/programming by society to eventually overcome them to triumphantly "live" our destined lives after...

Because simply removing the index bar from Six Pack Pro and 2023 Pro 1000, dies in Breech Lock bushings and ram under station #1 (Where resizing force is applied) with free-floating shellplate dropping flat on solid carrier surface and index pin through shellplate ensuring absolute zero; you...

Welcome to THR. :) We already myth busted that it is neck tension around .200" below case mouth where case wall is thicker that produce most of neck tension that holds bullet -...

So looks like 1.095" is your Max OAL for 4.5" barrel and 1.076" is Working OAL for both barrels. Have you function checked the Working OAL and fed the 1.076" round from the magazine? Max/Working OAL is set by the leade length of the barrel (Distance to start of rifling from chamber) and the...

Yes, absolutely agree and reasons why for conducting myth busting for OAL variance consistency to check effects of sorting by headstamp/case wall thickness: (NOTE: Testing for these myth busting threads were done with using resized case length of .075" Myth busting for sorting by headstamp -...

So you simply determined Max OAL with a particular random range brass? The reason why moderator @Walkalong posted "plunk test" graphics is if you are loading right at the fringe and using that "near" Max OAL, there are other factors to consider. You should at least feed the dummy round from...

My sentiment is just like holes on target is ultimately the final word on shooting variables, finished OAL variance is the final word on progressive press operational consistency barring other factors such as bullet nose/ogive consistency, bullet tilt, headstamp of brass, resized case length...

Dillon 550 utilizing open shellplate design which eliminates shellplate tilt/deflection to produce more consistent OAL was reason why I used it for rifle reloading. Instead of case base riding captured within the shellplate, case base slides on solid platform. Lee Precision Six Pack Pro (SPP)...

Sure if you are loading on a single stage. But I was loading on progressive presses in full progressive mode with shellplates full using unsorted range brass by case length. ;) With differing resizing efforts from various brand headstamp with differing brass alloy, case wall thickness, case...
