    Tikka T1x Rimfire

    I was deciding between an Annie 1416 and a Sako Quad varmint for a quality bolt action for a new can I have coming. I really want a nice wood stocked 22 around the 1k to 1200 mark. Is the Sako varmint still being produced and imported, I seen that eurooptic still has some. Also to the above...

    Dillon case trimmer

    Milling over something similar to myself where as too a dillon or giraud is worth it. I will start another thread so I don't hijack this one.

    Question on OAL and 223

    Rounds will be loaded for two different AR's, one just for plinking and one for more accuracy (18" SPR). I get seating them a little under 2.260 so there are no feeding issues. IF OAL is derived from base to ogive wouldn't the comparator help in the measurement department? I also have calipers...

    Question on OAL and 223

    RC, unless I'm not understanding this correctly wouldn't a comparator help with determining the OAL. Or should I say an easier method to measure and determine OAL, by determine or measure I mean to be be able to get a correct OAL. Hard to put into words what I'm tryin to say. I thought the...

    Question on OAL and 223

    Well I'm getting ready to order everything I need for 223 on a 550 and had a question in regards to OAL and 223. Since mag legnth is 2.260 and that the furthest I could load with a mag would the Hornady OAL and Modified case be a wasted purchase? From everything I've read I should just get the...

    .223 55gr Vmax

    If crimping is for tubular magazine and I understand the reason what about for a beltfed as in 1919. Just curious as I want to reload for a 308 bolt and the 1919. Not intending to hijack but am curious, thanks.

    Dies for 223

    I also have a question about the powder funnel in the caliber conversion for a 550. Will it bell the mouth (proper terms?) like it does for pistol. Or does the rifle rounds need belling. Pistol is the only thing I've loaded so far, thanks.

    Dies for 223

    RC, I do realize that if I change the load or bullet that I would have to sight in again. I was thinking more along the lines of my SPR and SBR. Different loads for them and it appears it would be easier to use the micrometer.

    Dies for 223

    Hello everyone, I've been looking at geetting dies for 223 and also 308. I've searched here and elsewhere and am torn between the micrometer seating dies from Redding and Forster. The graduations are easier to read on the Redding rather than the forster, I will be using them for multiple loads...

    Whats favored Hornady 55gr SP or FMJ

    Trying to decide between the two as what to start stock piling, the hornady 55gr SP or FMJ's. Mainly just for paper punching and practice. I have never reloaded rifle before and I figured I might as well start getting things together. From what I understand the SP's are are more accurate but...

    Berry's from Graf's

    Well I e-mailed them to see what I can fit in a small rate box and medium. If I can get it shipped through USPS it will be a good/great deal. I'm glad I got and think others should get their C&R.
