    Alpha OCD brass, die honed to 0.249. Gives me 2 thou of neck tension before using expander mandrel. I think it’s the best way. I have...

    I've used the Forster honed dies a bit, in 223 and 308. I get that once you get it honed for a particular brand of brass (and it's neck...

    I had tons of honed forster fl sizing dies. Thats the thing, to work the brass the least, you got a die honed to say size necks of...

    What size did you get it honed to, and for what brass?

    I just use a Forster seating die with the micrometer on top. A custom honed Forster FL die and Sinclair mandrel round it out.

    Anyone tried N160 in their .22 GT? Thanks, John

    SAC Ultimate Micrometer seating die. I use a LE Wilson SS FL Bushing 6GT die with .247 bushing then 21st Century mandrel for sizing.

    23 degrees is the correct insert. Couple of things could be going on, but it sounds like your chamber (223 Wylde?) has a larger neck...

    Take your calipers, and check the ID of the end of the gauge insert that goes into the 'body'. See what that measures. I just walked...

    I've found N150 to require mandatory cleaning every 80-120 rds on 22gt and 6br to keep consistent velocity, if I go longer velocity...

    80gr eldm and N150 was stupid accurate in my rifle. N150 just fouled so heavily so fast, I went to H4350. 33.7gr jumping 45k was stupid...

    That seems... odd. I've used a *lot* of N150 in both 223 and 308, and it was always far cleaner than say, Varget. To the point I pretty...

    That was my thought as well... but I had plenty of Lapua Palma brass that still held a primer snugly... and plenty of etching on the...
