    fired case won't fit after resizing ?

    Re: fired case won't fit after resizing ? the small base die is down 3/4 of a turn, really camed over. cases do not seem swelled at web. i was thinking the chamber might be very tight, instead of oversized ? Maybe thats why the small base dies are needed. My 7005r I can neck size only with no...

    fired case won't fit after resizing ?

    Confused on this one, my friend has a remy 700 vls. Rounds fired in that rifle have been resized with neck size die and will not all rechamber. We have even taken brass that has been fired from that rifle and tried to rechamber, goes all the way but last little bit, quater inch or so. Seems that...

    hardware store rifle

    Re: hardware store rifle the scarey part is that it probably will shoot and is reasonably safe as long as Black Powder is used and a mild load. Keep in mind Black Powder runs lower pressure than smokeless powder.

    Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308

    Re: Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308 Thank you for the input. I have wanted a Chrony for a while just did not want to spend the cash on it. Probably a good idea. Plus it would be good info to have. My shooting buddy said as long as the loads I work up group well and are below max per the...

    Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308

    Re: Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308 Thats true. Well, IMR 4064 does not meter well, so I picked up some Ramshot TAC poweder and have loaded 50 rounds from start load in Sierra Manual to Max load in Ramshot Manual in 1/2 grain incraments to see what works. TAC meters very well. My thought...

    Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308

    Re: Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308 Yeah I understand that, but my friend is using the FA 64 brass in his Remmy and is loading 43.5 grains of Varget behind 168smk's with no signs of pressure. I tried bumping up to the 41.5 grains of IMR 4064 during my work up load and had cratered...

    Mil Brass vs. Comm brass loads .308

    Newbie here, I am confused, the sierra load manual and speer load manual suggest reducing charge weights by 1 to 1 1/2 grains if using military brass. Have a very large quantity of FA 64 brass from my dad (5000 or so). Anyway, he told me that that reducing the charge is BS. I did not buy that...
