    Too hot for powder storage?

    I have thought about the ice chest route also. It would keep temperature swings non-existent.

    Too hot for powder storage?

    Not trying to over think it. Just uneducated about powder storage temps. Didn't want to ruin it at high temps. Kinda like wine, which I brew. Sounds like sub-95 temps are ok. Thanks to all responses.

    Too hot for powder storage?

    I have a cabinet shop. No a/c, but well insulated. N Louisiana. It can get up to 85-90 inside. I made an insulated cubby hole under my saw. Well-sealed, out if the way. Is this too warm for storage? Should I make s storage area in the house?

    Rifle Scopes 1000 bucks. SWFA or Vortex?

    I've got around a thousand or so to spend. I'm leaning toward the Viper PST 5-20x50. Gonna sit on a Savage 10 in .308. Looking at 3,4,500 yds.

    Extra .308 die set?

    I have a Redding RC 15506 coming. Neck sizer bushing set. What's different from the Redding type S set?

    Extra .308 die set?

    That's my next question- what is a bushing for? New at this- just trying to learn.

    Extra .308 die set?

    Ok, after a few conversations, I'm learning that I need to look for a neck sizing die. I'm thinking Redding? I wanna try to be very accurate, without being overly finicky, but close to it. Hope I'm making sense.

    Extra .308 die set?

    Have a chance to buy a 2nd die set for .308. Loading for two different guns-don't wanna keep changing setups between guns. My options are Hornady vs RCBS.

    Imr-8028 xbr?

    Hey George63. Too fast for .25-06? How about .308. Have you used any?

    Imr-8028 xbr?

    I think that is the range over by Keithville/ Grand Cane? I'm in south Bossier Parish. I belong to Caddo gun club, which is actually in Wedster Parish. So far i'm only interested in shooting 300-400 yds, maybe a bit more. I also have a few 1911's I load and shoot.
