    Gunsmithing 7mag or 7wsm or other .284cal pro's/con's

    Re: 7mag or 7wsm or other .284cal pro's/con's I dont really think you can go wrong with either. Short action with the WSM or long with the RemMag. Personally I think the belted cases are easier to reload as long as your not putting crazy stress on them. The ballistics out of both are really...

    338 Edge Info

    Re: 338 Edge Info Thanks for the info... Has anyone been running the 300 gr Berger out of the edge yet?? Ive also been reading that the edge is also referred to as a 338/300 ultra and the dies for that arent to bad. A little bit cheaper for sure than Carlocks dies. Any info on those?

    338 Edge Info

    Re: 338 Edge Info SO I have another question geargrinder. If I was to get custom hornady dies specifically for the 338 and run the 300 RUM brass through them am I going to run into any problems?

    Reloading 7mm-08

    Re: Reloading 7mm-08 Ive been testing with the W760 and getting ok results. Im not sure what to expect out of this gun or if my standards are too high. Ive never owned a mountain light gun but Im starting to see that heat is a serious issue. I have been shooting three shot groups and not...

    .300WM RL-22 and H-1000 load data (Heavy Bullets)

    Re: .300WM RL-22 and H-1000 load data (Heavy Bullets) I have been pusing the 210 Bergers out of my rock creek barrel for over a year now using the RL 22. I have also been reloading for a custom built 7mm STW and using the RL 25 and having really good luck and velocity with it. So I gave it a...

    Reloading 7mm-08

    I just purchased my first rifle in 7mm. I picked up a remington mountain LSS in 7mm-08. I have been thinking about the 140gr berger and or the 140 gr accubond. My first attempt with the accubonds turned out a little less than I was hoping for. Does anyone have any experience with the this...
