    243 length question

    For those of you sending 105 bergers downrange, what is your over all length? It seems to me there is a lot of berger sticking out

    Wet tumbling brass color change after annealing brass?

    Yes there were some (5-8) nickle cases, they did not change color but were very clean. The brass cases in the entire tumbler turned color. Yes it was a thumbler tumbler. I do clean it out very well after each use so the water was not dirty. I will try to "dry tumble" and report back in a few...

    Wet tumbling brass color change after annealing brass?

    I used dawn dish soap....is there anyway of bringing it back? This is not my first batch of wet tumbling.... it is however my first time annealing brass and making the mistake of just tossing it with other brass. Can it be reversed?

    Wet tumbling brass color change after annealing brass?

    I annealed 4 243 brass cases and threw them in with about 150 pieces of 40 cal brass. Now the whole batch is a dull camo brownish color. Anyone know how to fix this?.... Wet tumbled with stainless steel media, dawn dish soap, lemishine, and water for about 3 hours.

    flattest 200 yd cal. (hunting/target build)

    I plan on hunting with the weapon, but also plan on going to the range and shooting further 0-200 for hunting (that is the maximum shooting distance I have where I hunt) and when I go to the range I would like to get out to 500-800ish The extra tenth of a mil could make a difference. I plan...

    flattest 200 yd cal. (hunting/target build)

    yes, Deer/hogs.... but there is a rifle range about 1 hour away where I would like to send some long distance phone calls. That being said, that is why I am thinking the 6.5cm.

    7mm Rem Mag question

    Lots of valid points, and great ideas. I dont ever plan to bench fire it, if my son does when he gets it well his wallet can make that happen. A barrel floating, bedding action,and 1 piece scope base, decent rings, and a scope are in order. Maybe this will bring the long range, precision...
