    Does hail effect the bullet?

    I am sure it won't affect the ballistics of my 105mm Howitzer. Much.

    Can I load this somewhat short .308 brass?

    Thanks for the replies. :-) ETA: reason I posted the question was since there's a "trim to" length min of 2.005, I was a bit concerned.

    Can I load this somewhat short .308 brass?

    Loading some .308 win and came across this one empty that measures 1.991. Is it safe to load? I'm leaning towards not loading it to be safe. What would happen if this was reloaded and fired?

    A question about headspace.

    Re: A question about headspace. Thanks for the replies. Now I'm trying to figure out seating depth and their instructions are driving me nuts. I was able to use the freebore tool but am lost from that point on.

    A question about headspace.

    I bought an RCBS precision mic for .308 Win. I was reading the instructions that came with the box and was informed of the minimum-maximum headspace for .308 which is 1.6300-1.6400 I measured 10 unsized cases that were fired from my rifle. Here are the measurements (the figures below...

    Re: Need optics help for Rem 700P I just bought a Leupold Mark 4 M5 ER/T but in 8.5-25x50. If you are going to range your targets, the FFP is the way to go.

    Rifle Scopes A newbie question about Leupold scopes.

    Re: A newbie question about Leupold scopes. I find your response weird. Why wouldn't you contact Leupold to give them a chance to fix your scope instead of giving them a bad review on here? That would be the first thing I would do. And why does having friends who have the same problem keep...
