    308 loads

    I switched from Fed 210GM to CCI200 because in a couple of primer tests the CCI 200 gave me 40 to 50 more fps and reduced my SD and ES. My shooting buddy has come up with the same results for what it's worth.

    hornady 105 gr match bullets

    I used to shoot the Hornady's 105 HPBT out of my Rem 700 243 out to 600 yards with good accuracy using R19. Had to run the velocity up there but it worked well. My friend had the exact same rifle (9.125 twist) and would not shoot any 105's. He went to the Berger 95 VLD's that shot well using...

    Frustrated with Hornady LNL Auto Charge

    I have checked my Hornady's LNL Auto charge against my RCBS electronic scale. The first time with 10 drops which 80% were on or +.1 grain, 15% were .2 grains and one was .3 grain difference. I called Hornady's Tech people and they indicated +\- .2 was acceptable. Even though their marketing...

    K&M Neck Turner Help

    K&M Neck Turner Help I only use the dry Imperial lubricant with the media, ceramic balls. Dip each neck in the media prior to turning. No galling on the inside of the neck. I tried the wax lubricant first but found it more messy than the dry. I don't think I would use the cases because you...

    Remmy 700 .223 and a 1:12 twist 26" BBL

    My .223 Rem SPS varmint shoots 45 to 55grain bullets. Tried 60 grain but would not stabilize with the 12 twist. I have shot the 55's out to 600 yards with good accuracy. Just need to shoot on a windless day.

    Case Separation

    I have the same firearm and have experienced the same issue with case separation. All of the answers are correct, the main problem is that your neck die is bumping back the shoulder too far. This condition shortens the brass too much then it is expanded again when firing. I have also had the...

    Range Report Bore sighting

    My observation from helping many newer shooters sight in their new rifles, is that at least half of those that were bore sighted were 3' to 4' off. I have them take aim at an object, like a can, on the hillside backstop first to get that close. Then go to paper.

    Will installing a muzzle break change POI or load development?

    It did not change the accuracy, just a click or two on the scope settings.

    Midway Back Order?

    Steve1 I put in a "notify me" with email address with as many vendors as I can find, Midway, Powder Valley, Sinclair, etc. this has worked well for me and I've never ran out of anything.

    Good books for reloading, specifically .308 long range.

    I have about 7 manuals and I fall back on Hornady's and Sierra's.

    Where should I place my backorder of powder???

    If I need powder I place a "notify me" note on maybe 4 or 5 sites. Whoever gets it first and notifies me, gets the sale. I've never ran out of powder.

    Yet another 'beginner reloading setup' question: this list sufficient?

    Good point snuffy671! Every issue I have seen with a stuck case in a die has come from spray on lubricant. If done correctly it works fine but I have gotten sloppy in the past and did not do a good enough job spraying the cases and it gets stuck. I changed to a pad and RCBS water based...
