    Sorry, I got 4-boxes at home, but their just too dam handy for tree rats.. I went looking for them about a year ago, and never found them in stock, or for sale... Not even sure they are still making them ?>?.. They ARE the BEST for dispatching coyotes, and coon on my trapline,, Expand like...

    Building an accurate rifle, need advice on reloading DIES

    I personally just use the RCBS gold set, It's fairly reasonable compared to others, and you get 2 huge benefits, Using the micrometer seater, you seat bullets based on ogive, not by pushing on the tips, and assuming the tip isin't deforming or mashing down, changing your coal.. Using the...

    ELD-X by Hornady (Accuracy Report)

    Im more-so looking forward to trying out the 212 in my -06,, Although I don't think they will shine like the 190gr Berger's do,, I have had excellent results with the 208 A-max though.. Wondering how they will react to being in the lands,, ???

    Chrono choices?

    After years of f-ing around with others, I finally bought the Magnetospeed "sporter" .. I didn't want to invest any more money than I had to, but I am VERY impressed.. Just seconds to set up on most rifle's, it gives me just what I need, but nothing else.. It records the speed accurately.. With...

    case mouth vs. full length resizing

    I believe those reamers used to make those dies probably have under-sized dimensions, at least for overall neck diameter.. Standard factory chambers for a .30 cal are around .340 , where you can get them down to at least .336.. So your brass only expands .003 overall, instead of .008 or more...

    SOOO many new cartridges

    . . That's why I chose 30-06 for this build,, Timeless cartridge, proven itself over and over.. Im gonna build another one just like it, only in .243... Not even an "AI" version of either, .. I think I can reload the 50BMG cheaper than some of these new cartridges..

    Hornady ELD-X Feedback

    I am still waiting for mine. I ran the 208gr A-max's with excellent results, I ordered some of the 178 and some of the 212 to see how they do.. I am going to use Varget and 4350 for testing the waters when they do get here..

    Sizing Die Repair?

    Wet 1000 grit, then I use one of those cheap cotton "swabs" that come with some cleaning kits with some flitz on it.. Cleans them up like new !

    Must think we're idiots

    I don't understand peoples constant need to police the web, Crying foul whenever they see something that they think is out of line.. I have a rare rifle listed on GB right now, it's an odd ball, and I there is only 2 others like it currently listed, I paid about $300 more than I could have...

    30-06 or 300 WM? Let's hear it...

    Im running a 26" 1:9 Douglas Match barrel in 30-06.. The 208/210 vld-style bullets seem to the tops for this gun at 500 yards. I start running into pressure signs at 2450 and not just in the case. I can feel those in my teeth.. If my end result was to push 200gr + pills into large game, I would...

    do i really need a chrono?

    Just got out this past weekend to test out a "Magnetospeed Sporter" ,, Pretty simple unit, once you figure out how to attach to your rifle. Had my buddy sit next to me and record 5 strings of 5 shots each. It confirms the reloading manuals estimated fps, and was almost dead on. . It was...

    Metering IMR 4350

    To answer question, NO, I have ground 4350 to coffee, forcing handle back and forth. It's not gonna explode, but your drops will vary.

    Metering IMR 4350

    Near impossible to get accurate drops out of the uniflow, I've beat that horse already too. I invested in the RCBS auto-charge just for this purpose. Double-and triple checked by a Lyman digital scale, and my 505 every so often

    Cross-breed press

    Well, there really isin't much of a price difference, except for the adapter, to use the LNL feature on Hornady dies.. I'll stick with green I guess,, Now If I can just find the neck-sizer die by itself.. Everybody wants to sell a set with the competition seater, which I already have.. Off to...

    Cross-breed press

    If I am using RCBS press's currently, but want to be able to control my neck sizing more precisely. Should I cross-over to Hornady dies, so that I can take advantage of their neck die bushings, as well as the lock and load feature ? OR Stick with RCBS ? I think they might have neck die...

    first time shooting clays - good starter shotgun?

    Will be hunting some of South Dakota's finest prairie pigeons.. . I was thinking I would tape over the back 2 fiber optic sights, and just use the front green optic as a bead,, ?? . In theory, my mind says to use at least 1-3/8oz of #6 or even 7-1/2 and try to push it out there 1300 fps...
