So,I have settled on 87gr Hornady Vmax for my bullet, IMR 4350 for my powder and now trying to decide on dies. I have Hornady and Lee .45ACP, Lee 9mm dies and had .38/.357 Lee dies when I had a revolver. I have never had any issues with any of these (minus the Lee FCD interfering with my ejector...

I am looking to start my .243 reloading very soon, probably start with Hornady 87gr V-max and Hornady 105gr A-max as they both seem to have a reputation for accuracy. I have found Varget locally for $25 a pound. I have heard alot of good things about Varget, but searching through the many...

So I have now had a couple trips to the range with this rifle. This rifle is a fine shooter. I am learning to be more consistant behind the trigger, and when I am the rifle is easily sub-moa off of a homemade rest. My best group yet is 0.6875 center to center, 5 shot group using 100gr Federal sp...

I took my new Savage Mdl 10 .243 down to Academy Sunday to have my scope bore-sighted. I didn't look very closely at the mount until I was at the range yesterday. First two shots high and right, but touching! Feeling pretty good about the situation so I went to adjust the scope, and this is...

It seems most posts concern how to get the highest velocity out of a particular gun, usually in a hunting scenario which makes sense. I am looking to be more accurate on paper so ft. lbs of energy is not going to be nearly as big of a deal. Now I know the .243 already has minimal recoil, but...

Ok, so I thought I had my mind made up between a 25.06 and a .257 Roberts. After much searching locally I have found exactly zero .257 Roberts and a small hand full of 25.06 rifles. I am leaning back towards the .243 as there are tons of them, they tend to handle better then 25.06 rifles I have...

Ok, from my previous thread I have narrowed down my search to these two calibers. I have read alot of the Bob threads and the merits of the 25.06 and its advantages over the .257 Roberts. I have never really gotten into rifles, before and have a couple of questions to help me decide. The Bob...

So I have been toying with the idea of getting a centerfire bolt platform but don't know exactly what caliber would best suit my needs. I have been mostly considering a 25.06 or a .243. My criteria is accuracy, easy to shoot (read minimum recoil) and although I do not hunt I would like to have a...

Looking at an STI Trojan 5". I have had the 1911 bug since I sold my last one. Question: what is the finish on this gun? It doesn't appear to be blued, but more likely seems "painted" with one of the many finishes on the market. Does anybody know what it is? Also, the age old debate, how do...

Thinking about trading, what say you? The 30 sits on the shelf alone. Doesn't get shot much anymore as I am dabbling in USPSA where I am shooting Limited 10 with a 1911. With a 17/34, I could shoot other classes in USPSA using high caps and have alot better advantage than trying to use the 30...
