    Re: Hodgdon's new CFE 223 powder I asked this a couple of weeks ago and didn't get a response. The velocity looks fast and I want to try it. Until then, I'll keep rolling them with the 8208 XBR. Sorry that I don't have any info.

    dies for a 308

    Hodgdon CFE 223

I used forming taps and they worked a million times better than a cutting tap. Especially on a blind hole because...

    Re: CNC exploits Like Dixon said, bad things can happen when there is a G0 where a G1 was supposed to be. And a decimal point in the wrong place can cost you thousands of dollars. See if you can take a machining course from a local trade school. Learning manual machining will give you more...
