gut shoot em

im gonna pm you to continue the conversation. i really wanna pick ur brain on this and i dont wanna thread jack anymore than i already have

Obviously the biggest factor besides if the round will chamber properly or not is if it fits the magazine and feeds properly, something i overlook sometimes. I was doing a ladder test on a 300 win today and as always im pushing closer to the lands trying to reduce dispersion (as if that tiny...

i think this is another one of those rabbit holes. i find myself wondering about my own head space and things because it seems im not getting very many firings from brass when FL resizing before i start noticing that little line around the case that warns of possible head seperation in the...

It really is quite a rabbit hole. Kinda like the guys on the pod casts say and some of it just seems far fetched while other bits make a little sense. Then again every once in a while reality sets in and i realize Im a hunter (not even a very good one) just looking to put meat on the table...

im getting older and i find myself listening to podcasts more than music. In the reloading room, on the job, in the car, etc.

You gotta listen to Joe Rogan once. Its a podcast on spotify. Alot of good stuff on there. Alot of true stuff the media doesnt talk about

After my many years (1) of experience reloading I would have to agree with the 3 shot groups comment. For example i worked up a hunting load last year (green as a gord) and was just completely dissapointed that i didnt get single hole 3 shot groups on my first ever work up with a 40 year old...

i actually took a doe with this round this year. load was 52 grains of blc2. did the job at 120 yards. no exit tho.

I really love the hornady podcast. They always have some great food for thought, but i recently heard something odd. Alot of these guys arent doing a full load work up. I think one guy said they fire 10 rounds over the chrono and then pick a powder charge to test. Another said he just picks a...

i dont own a dry tumbler. i used to clean brass and then polish on a wheel with compound. sometimes i didnt clean at all. i have loaded some 5 times without cleaning. anyway its a step up from before. saves alot of time and my hands dont cramp up. i mostly use lee sizing compound now and...

packing up the brass this morning i noticed it doesnt have the shine anymore. i see why the guys use wax. i probably wont tho, because the rifle doesnt care if the brass is super bright and shiny. really pleased with the cleanliness though.

lol there were some 9 stuck in 45. no big deal

so do any of you guys wet tumble after sizing to remove sizing lube? in the past i used a rag with solvent but thats kind of tedious

its a deep freezer. but i get ya. on this load i added a little borax. we use alot of it around the homestead. seems to be much more bright this time, which doesnt make alot of sense beings my water is very hard and that increases ph. anyhow i noticed the water mix turned black about 45 mins...

all different sizes, from 9mm to 300 win mag.

i just filled this thing up and giving it another go, just to see what it can handle. the window on the side is about 3/4 full of brass. seems to be tumbling even better than before.

works good

ok im running this batch with dishsoap and i just added 1cc of citric acid. ill post pics of how it comes out. thanks guys

yeah. is 2 lbs enough? it wasnt as much (volume) as i thought it was going to be.
