    Question on bullet seating length and powder charg

    Re: Question on bullet seating length and powder charg Good reply, Bob and thanks. I'm doing it because in service rifle competition, I can load single rounds in slow fire prone at 600 yds. If it gives me an edge, then I'll take it. I can usually put most of them in the ten ring at 600 in...

    Question on bullet seating length and powder charg

    Hey guys, Glenn Zediker says in his "Handloading for Competition" book to back a powder charge off by 1/2 grain when you seat the bullet to the lands. But he doesn't say when to increase the powder charge back to normal. Do you always keep it 1/2 grain under? If it shoots well touching the...

    Micrometer type dies

    Re: Micrometer type dies Forster recently made their dies way easier to read. They are easier to read now than the reddings. I own both forster and redding micro seater dies and I like the Forsters way better. Here's why: 1.Forster is lockable at any setting. Can't do that with a redding...

No I love how these old salts of Snipers Hide with their 2010, 2009 and 2008 join dates know what's best. If you were around here two or three...

    Re: It says a lot about a forum... I liked this country better before all this political correctness came along. We've become a country of wusses. I'm not a respecter of persons. I say things as I see them. I do not purpously try to offend people, but at the same time I say things as they...

    Hornady Concentricity Gage

    Re: Hornady Concentricity Gage They are pretty easy to make, too. get a v block from a machinist supply like enco and put a dial indicator on it. A set up tool with magnetic base works well.

    Big Difference Between these M1A's?

    Re: Big Difference Between these M1A's? Nobody is winning with 14's today. The most used gun in service rifle is the AR-15 for several reasons. The m14 and AR-10's are hard to shoot clean in offhand; they are just too heavy. Furthermore, they knock you more out of position in sitting and...

    Need info on spotting scopes with Mil Dot reticles

    Re: Need info on spotting scopes with Mil Dot reticles Thou art correct, sir. I was wrong, wrong, wrong. Never assume. SWFA told me the same thing. Now I've got it from two horses mouths instead of just one. Now another gross assumption: how can I cut something already so small into tenths...

    Need info on spotting scopes with Mil Dot reticles

    Re: Need info on spotting scopes with Mil Dot reticles I don't think that makes sense. That would be 60 full mils of windage and elevation, each. Seems like a lot.
