Area 419 Micrometer Adjustable Sizing Dies

ZERO M-Series Sizing Die Breakdown

KEY FEATURES

  • Micrometer Adjustable Headspace/Shoulder Bump
  • Precision Ground Expander Mandrels (all dies ship with a .002 neck tension mandrel, more to be available Q1 2023)
  • Full-Length Neck to Extractor Sizing
  • Spring Ejection for Spent Primers
  • Replaceable Steel Decap Pins
  • Reamer Cut to Exacting Dimensions for a TRUE Size (no more sticky bolt after the second firing)
  • Hydraulic Shoulder Pressure Relief
  • 100% Made in AMERICA

The ZERO M-Series Sizing die is the culmination of years of testing, research, trial, error, frustration, and finally, discoveries.

As Reloaders, we knew we needed a die to do certain things, but as the makers of the ZERO Reloading Press, we also learned a huge amount about what other dies did well or did poorly, and what our customers were struggling with on a daily basis.

With the ZERO M-Series Sizing Die, we think we have produced a sizing die that is capable of producing the finest, match-grade ammunition, as well as being user-friendly to new and learning reloaders.

Sizing brass doesn’t have to be complicated. It doesn’t have to require years of trial and error. It just needs equipment, made with the end-user in mind, designed with the understanding that a die is part of an ecosystem of parts. A press, a die, the brass, the rifle – they all have to work together and be designed with one another in mind. This is that. Introducing, the ZERO M-Series Sizing Die.

Question about my first gun.

Hi,

I hope you can help me with my decision. I never had a long-range rifle and I am buying my first gun. I wanted a 6.5 Creedmoor because of the accuracy but now I am thinking of picking up a .308 because it is way cheaper (gun and ammo) in my country (6.5 creed guns are very limited). + the longest shooting range in our country is 800 meters or 875 yards. So I don't really need long-range caliber or do I for that kind of length?

So my question is because I am on a budget and for that length, is it ok to buy a Bergara rifle in .308 and put it on MDT chassis?

And the next question is because I am putting the barrel on different chassis is the barrel on all B14 Bergaras the same? Our local store has Bergara B14 sporter varmint 24" or Bergara B14 HMR...because sporter varmint is way cheaper.

I won't be shooting precision competitions. Probably only steel plates.

Thanks!

Help me decide budget long range scope

Hi guys. Im currently looking for budget scopes with around 5-25x56 specs. (4-20, 3-18 etc is OK, but i prefer 5x zoom or more.)
I can currently score the following scopes for about the same cost, where the Arken is a tad cheaper.
  1. Burris XTR 2 5-25x50 second hand: most expensive new, but have the possibility to buy second hand for around 700 USD)
  2. Vortex Viper PST gen 2 5-25x50 Second hand: may have the possibility to buy second hand for around 700 USD. New price 1300 USD in my country.
  3. Vector Continental Tac FFP 4-24x56 (Schott glass, Minox turrets, lifetime warranty). Price 750 USD in my country
  4. Arken Optics EP5 5-25x56 MIL FFP (ED glass, lifetime warranty) Price 600 USD in my country
What would you do?
Ps. ive had more expensive scopes before, S&B PM2 5-25x56, 3-20x50, Zeiss 6-24x72 etc. I know I cant expect the same quality, but for my usage now i think these budget options would do just fine for long range target practice and some small game hunting etc.

Reasons people compete, and what grows the sport.

I was reading the AG Cup thread, and decided to start a new thread instead of sidetracking that one.

I have been shooting competitions since SHC at Rifles Only in 2005. There have been a lot of people who have come and gone, and it's sad to certain extent since I've met a lot of good people/friends who I have lost contact with as they moved away from the sport. This is kind of akin to your high school buddies that you may only keep in touch with one or two of them. The reasons many compete at local or at the national level is to see friends and do something fun. I think group of shooters makes up at least 50% of the competitors if not more. We all want to do as well as we can and improve, but friendship in the guiding force. I've seen many of the top 10-20 shooters came and go after they burn out and find another hobby. I have 2 Top 5 finishes, and a bunch of top 20 finishes in the PRS over the last several years since I decided to step it up a notch before I get too old. But to make it more fun again I am going to gas gun this year so I can be more layed back and spend time with buddies, competing with the other 2-3 mentally impaired people (like me) at each match.

The thing that I have seen grow the sport is club matches. Either NRL 22, PRS 22, PRS centerfire sanctioned club matches, or even "outlaw" matches. It's a lot easier for someone to borrow a loaner rifle, or a buddies gun, and travel a few hours to shot a match. They can spend $200-$300 on ammo and match fee and be back in their own bed that night. You have to have people overcome the cost of entry by letting them try before they buy. I remember the first custom competition rig I bought, a trued Remington 700 built by HD Rifles (that's a whole story in of itself). It was hard to make myself spend $2500, but I did in the end which started me on this journey. Since I have time vested in this sport (and have spent enough to buy several new houses) i don't really think twice about adding a new rifle to the safe. And after ROing the PRS 22 Finale the last 2 years, I believe 22 precision rifle matches are the fastest growing segment at the moment. The match grew by 1/3 from the year before a few weeks back.

Just some thoughts as I read the other thread.

Hey guys got a Giraud I’m letting go. Great trimmer! Setup currently for 6BR and I’ve also got the cutter for .25 cal as I intended to use it for my 25CM as well. I don’t have the holder for CM based cases tho so you’d still need that. Great condition only used a handful of times. Never abused.

New, possibly "problematic" barrel

I'm a firm believer a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. I therefore defer to the Hide's knowledge on this. I received a much anticipated new barrel today, fluted and all. First glance, she's gorgeous but then I start to really look and notice a few things. I whipped out the bore scope and photographed what I thought were a few issues. Photos below.

I don't want to be "that" customer so I have a few questions about the state of this barrel. I want to bring up legitimate concerns (if there are any) and not waste any time on things I don't have the knowledge to judge and aren't actual problems.

First, are most new barrels fired in-house before shipping out? It does not appear the barrel has ever been mounted. The extension doesn't have any scratches or telltale signs it's used. But it appears there's a bit of carbon in the grooves of the rifling. I don't care either way, I just want to know what I'm looking at. There's a lot of leftover shavings and what not from the machining process so I'm thinking it wasn't ever used to fire a round. Chamber looks mint, untouched.

Second, I would assume the start of the rifling after the chamber needs to be uniform in distance. It appears the grooves start at varying distances, no rhyme or reason. Two next to one and other don't come all the way down to the chamber, most are right at the chamber, and there's a third that begins in the throat (think I'm using the right terminology there).

Third, I've always read the crown is the most important as it's the last thing the bullet sees. Well, this crown is a bit thorny and there's a small chunk missing at the very edge. Seems pretty rough the whole way around actually but that one spot is particularly glaring.

Fourth, there appears to be tooling chatter or something just before the gas port.

I bought this on Black Friday, made to order, expecting an 8-week delivery timeframe, but it showed up in essentially three weeks. Specs are HBAR, fluted, 223 wylde, only the barrel threading is non-standard for what most get for .223/5.56 so I can't see this being a previously installed/returned barrel.

Going to reach out about the crown regardless but would like input on everything else. Any info greatly appreciated.

Photos.

Let's start with various photos of the crown. My bore scope isn't the best so I apologize.










Gas port.


Dunno what caused this but there are semi-circular marks in certain parts of the barrel. Haven't cleaned it so maybe just oil residue or something.


Rifling in the throat.








Extension (which looks fine). I didn't take a super close look at the feed ramps but I didn't notice anything glaring whatsoever.

Muzzle Brake question

Hi y'all

New to the forum and to the shooting.
I have a question regarding how to find a muzzle brake that'll fit.

I have a 308 with 1/2x28 thread but apparently most (if not all) 308 brakes are threaded at 5/8x24.
Is the threading the only thing that determines the fit? I saw one that mentioned about a "minimum diameter".
I am looking for a muzzle brake for a Howa 1500, 308 threaded at 1/2x28 and the diameter is I believe .605".

Any info regarding the sizing and things to look at would be nice.


Thank you

6.5 x 47 vs 6 GT

Looking to purchase new or build a long range rifle (1200 yards or so) for ringing steel or other target (no hunting). Looking at cartridge choice. 6.5 x 47 Lapua (I have 200 unfired cases), or 6mm GT. Hard choice, so welcome opinions. I do not compete, this is just for personal pleasure. If I can avoid a muzzle brake, that would be nice, but not essential. I reload. Top accuracy is a must, but would like 1500+ rounds barrel life minimum, not fussy on loads. I do not fire long rapid strings. Factory ammo unimportant. Reliable mag feeding a must. Prefer AICS mags. I can get a MasterPiece PMR in both calibers, a Seekins HIT rifle in 6 GT, and can get either with an Origin action and different shouldered prefits. If anyone has experience with one or both of these rounds, would welcome your thoughts on either or both for my shooting.

SOLD T3x action

Selling my lightly used, <350 rounds on it Tikka T3x action. Came off my 6.5cm CTR. Has mountain tactical 20moa rail, sterk swept ball handle, and yodave trigger spring. $700 for all of it, no trades. Pp ff or cover the fee on your end. Have stock and bottom metal for an additional price if interested as well.

Out Scammed a Scammer

So went to the Bronco's game this past weekend and today my Credit Card was used to buy a Gift Card at Bath& Body Works

Immediately set the card to locked, but I have to wait for the pending to end to dispute the transaction. Well I was in front of my computer and I got the email that my card was used, but also I get an email from the store with the Gift Card Receipt,

There is an option to change the email address of the scammer,

Email Recipient:
[email protected]

I rush in and change the email of the card and have it sent to me instead, (Thanks Bath Body Works for the option)

So I ran into the store and used up the Gift Card on them before they could access it.

I now have like $400 worth of Bath & Body works and left them with pennies on the card
