    Dear RCBS,

    I know it's an added cost, but it makes your product 1,000,000 times more enjoyable to use. Chuck that handle up in the lathe and cut a thread path in there for a knob of sorts.... Or if you want to remind yourself that primers are now more valuable than an 8 ball of cocaine...

    Brass: Match Factory vs. Non-"Match". Is there a difference in brass?

    I can imagine this wormhole has probably been beaten to death but I can't seem to find any specific reference on it. My question is: Is the factory brass case used in say Hornady "Match" brass, versus their American Gunner line of ammo the same brass case? Is the brass case in the Winchester...

    Hornday 6.5mm 140 ELD M Bullet Jump

    I've been tinkering around with a load for my PRS rifle to come up with a pretty basic, reliable and consistent off the shelf / low brain damage "go to" load. In that process, I've got to what I think I'll stick with, but (as with all things perhaps) I started pondering bullet jump a little more...

    School of Thought on Velocity Nodes. Fast or Slow?

    What's the school of thought on picking a velocity node when doing a load workup and finding multiple nodes? OCW method or others; I'm tinkering around with Following Scott Satterlee's method of 10 shots (or more for example, say 20 shots) and say for example you find nodes (plateaus) at lower...

    Load development with newer barrel still speeding up?

    Is there a thought process or rule of thumb about working up a load with a newer barrel (100ish rounds) that is still showing signs of speeding up? From what I'm reading on this barrel (Howa) it may continue to do so for another 100 or so rounds. Bad idea to work up a load or two before it...

    Factory Ammo to Reload - Pick One

    If you were planning to buy a case of 6.5CM factory ammo to shoot in a match (PRS/NRL) and then shag brass to reload, what would you pick? (for the brass, all things being equal with the factory ammo quality, accuracy, consistency, etc.) Norma, Prime, or Hornady? I've got a fair amount of...

    Narrow down two choices on single stage press

    Looking to add another single stage press to the bench. I think I have it narrowed down to one of the following. MEC Marksman https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1018146888 Hornady Iron Press https://www.midwayusa.com/product/101693119?pid=353329 Both meet my needs, they're essentially in the...

    Faster vs. Slower Pistol Powders in 40S&W

    What's the general consensus or philosophy on faster versus slower burning pistol powders in the 40S&W cartridge? I'm relatively new to reloading 40, and have only started with Titegroup and 800X and not branched out from that much. Have also staying pretty tight in the book and not gone up...
