    Chrono Question

    How much difference in MV can a couple feet difference in distance from muzzle to Chrono make ? Shot my 155's a week earlier and was getting averages 2950 +, was first time used chrono and didn't measure or take note of the distance, althouogh I know it was right in the area of 10 feet or maybe...

    Trimming Case Length

    Anyone else notice this or is it just me, but i do all my case prep by hand, no power tools or case prep centers, yup it takes time but I don't mind. So I trim my .308 Hornady Match brass to 2.005, but I've noticed after I trim to 2.005 and smooth (chaffer) the outside and inside, then...

    Bullet Comparing and Sorting

    Re: Bullet Comparing and Sorting I do agree with Mallard and believe you have to be doing some sorting and grouping like sized bullets, I've found the boxes of Sierra 155 MK Palma bulllets I've done to have a large window of difference, but also found a box of 100 Berger 185 VLD's to be...

    Determining Seating Depths for VLD's

    Ok so I just finished up trying to find some seating depth numbers for Berger 175 VLD's in my palma rifle. I started by attempting to use my Stoney Point gauge, but ended up dropping the gauge and damaging the case mouth to the point of "unusableness" (probably not a word). That was the only...

    Problems finding seating depth

    Re: Problems finding seating depth I was having the same probably about a week ago with the Berger 175 VLDs, and it was driving me absolutley nuts, I probably spent an hour and a half taking readings with the same stoney point gauge, and never came up with the same number three times in a...

    Bullet Comparing and Sorting

    My current process of comparing and sorting bullets is using two Hornady bullet comparators, one on each blade of the caliper, however in my tinkering I found out there is a .002 difference in the two comparators. I found this out by putting the bullet in one way, then flipping it over and...

    Shoulder Bump

    Loading for about a year now, and rounds are shooting well and I'm staying competitive in matches with my loads, but not really sure about this. I'm measuring a fired case with the Hornady headspace gauge or shoulder gauge and it's typically approximately 1.625, now I was taught to just try to...

    Concentricity & Runout Correction

    Ok, Long time Competitive Smallbore shooter, but I'm fairly new to Mid Range, Long Range, and Palma Competition as far as the reloading aspect of the game goes and only been reloading now for about a year for my .308 and those tournaments. I'm trying to pull out all the stops on precision and...
