    Redding T7

    I also use a Inline Fab press stand. They are great. Mine has the quick Change plate installed so I can switch presses or other tools in a matter of seconds. Great customer service too. Redding | Inline Fabrication

    Redding T7

    My t7 has had no mods done to it and along with a good set of dies it makes extremely accurate ammo. Here's a couple of groups I shot at 300 yds using ammo made on my T7. It's obvious that my rifle likes the Sierras better than the Bergers but a .6 moa "bad" group is ok with me ;)

    "New" Giraud Trimmer

    I wonder if there's going to be a 3 month wait on these too. It kind of bothers me that he's coming out with new products when he can't deliver what he already builds in a timely manner.

    Advanced Marksmanship Reading the wind / Kestrel 2500

    Carry it with you all the time. At first, anytime your outside get a wind reading and look at the vegetation, flags, anything that's being moved by the wind. When you think you have a handle on it guesstimate the wind value then take a reading to see how close you are. Do this everyday and it...

    Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR

    I guess the guys that say it isn't temp sensitive don't live in the south were summer temps can get to 100 with a humidity in the 90's. I put together a load for my 308 with SMK 155's and 2000mr this spring. Temp was hi 60's. I get 1/2 moa groups at 300 yds. Switch to summer, temp low 90's exact...

    Reloading press advise

    Exact same setup I use. I sold a Forester co-ax to get this one. Couldn't be happier. Mine is set up for 2 calibers (223 and 308) with redding instant indicators and a universal decapper. I also have mine mounted on a ultramount but mine has they quick change plates so I can mount other presses...

    "Drill bite" style case trimmers

    I use WFTs in 308 and 223. I like them but if I had it to do over I would buy something that has mic adjustments and interchangeable inserts instead of having to buy a complete trimmer for each caliber.

    2000MR+308+155 SMK Palma OCW test part Deux

    My goal was to get a good shooting load with low ES/SD at ~3000 fps. This one fits nicely but I still may try going up to the next node and see what happens.

    Who / Which method of using stainless steel tumbling media is best?

    The only difference in our processes is I deprime first. Works great.

    2000MR+308+155 SMK Palma OCW test part Deux

    A couple of weeks ago I did this test at 100 yds and posted it here. I had stated that I was going to take the 48, 48.3, and 48.6 groups out to 300 yds. I finally got the time to do it but somehow I forgot to load the 48 gr set. Judging by the results I'm on the right track. The 48.6 is just...

    Choice of Brass

    I've been putting off buying new brass because the last couple of lots of Lapua I've bought needed as much prep work as Winchester (primer pockets, neck turning etc) so I would like to switch but Winchester brass in 308 and 223 is as rare as hens teeth. Lapua used to be "load it out of the...

    Choice of Reloading Press

    The Co-ax is a good press but to listen to some ppl you'd think it had magical powers. It doesn't. My ammo was no straighter made in the coax compared to ammo made with the same dies in my rock chucker. For me, I found it uncomfortable to use. I couldn't get used to the overhead handle and...
