    Redding Type S Bushing 280 AI help!

    For Nosler 280 AI brass, the neck thickness is .013 and a loaded round measures .310 so you want a .308 or .309 bushing. For Norma 280 brass that has been fire formed to 280 AI the neck thickness is closer to .014 so you want a .310 or so bushing for that. I personally go with .002 tension and...

    Chronograph setup

    Re: Chronograph setup Last tip ... if its setup in a shaded area you will probably get better results with the sky screen off. If the screens are casting a shadow you need the screen on. All they do is diffuse the light so the sensors dont get blinded. If it is overcast or the sun is...

    Chronograph setup

    Re: Chronograph setup As far as distance is concerned, the closer it is to you the more room you have to move left and right and still being over the sensors. Put it as close as you can until you get comfortable setting it up. If you try and lay your target spots out top to bottom in one or...

    Annealing

    Re: Annealing In a dark room, do you want to take it out just before or just after it begins to glow a deep red? There is a moment when it will strike that color. Some articles say that any glow is bad. Others say that is the perfect point. With tempilaq paint a stripe of the low temp...
