    Hornady Lock-N-load scale problems???

    That's kinda what I figured, I guess I'm just going to keep on doing what I have been, getting the bulk of the charge from the Lock-N-Load and fine tuning it with my beam scale.

    Hornady Lock-N-load scale problems???

    I have a Hornady Lock-N-Load auto charge scale. I find that if I make a charge wait of lets say 65gr, take that and measure it again but on my M500 RCBS mechanical scale the charge will be different. Now I get that different scales will give you different readings but my issue is that the...

    Hunting & Fishing Elk hunting what do I need to know???

    I want to start going out west for hunting trips for elk and other game too like mule deer. But I don't have the faintest idea how to go about it and I also don't want to pay an outfitter thousands of dollars to go and still might not even get a shot. I would rather try it on my own. So where do...

    Trued R700 action VS. custom action?

    I think I'm going to use my 700 action, I'll get it trued, a bigger recoil lug, a bigger bolt handle, 20 moa base, cerakote it, slap on a new barrel and call it a day. This is mainly going to be a hunting rifle anyway so it doesn't have to get too fancy.

    28 nosler build questions

    3080-3200 fps that's moving. If I went with a 28" barrel do you think 3000 fps with 195gr berger's would be an achievable muzzle velocity?

    Hunting & Fishing 28 Nosler too much for white tail?

    Whats your guys opinion, would a rifle chambered in 28 Nosler be too much for a white tail deer? I have used a 7mm Rem Mag before with no real excess meat loss but I fear with more velocity and a heavier 195gr bullet it might lose a lot of a front shoulder or two. I wont be shooting at deer 50...

    Trued R700 action VS. custom action?

    I have a new build that I want to start and I want to know if there is any real performance advantages if I get a new custom action like a Deviant or the like, compared to if I use the R700 action that I have and just have a gunsmith true it up. Basically what I'm trying to do is to justify the...

    belted vs non belted magnums????

    Ok I understand case volume, but I don't get any resizing problems. I have a 7mm rem mag, and I just use a use the FL resizing die, back it off a bit and just to bump the shoulder back a few thousands of an inch. Wouldn't that be the same process if the cartridge is a 7mm RUM? And as far as...

    belted vs non belted magnums????

    Can someone please explain to me the advantage or disadvantage of having a non belted magnum cartridge (performance wise). I see on here every now and again people say they have a problem with belted magnums like the 300 WM but I don't remember seeing them explain why they feel that way. The...

    28 nosler build questions

    From what i was told when i ask the guy at Defiance, they said that you should be able to go back to it if you use a center feed box mag. But without that it might not work because the rails had to be opened up. He did say that he has never gone back to a smaller cartridge so he wasnt 100%

    Best Lubricants for AR's?

    What are some of you guys using for Lube for your AR's? I'm in the Army so all we use is CLP, but I'm sure that there is a better product than what is supplied to me.
