    300WM case length

    Listen to Victors advice it is a good one. Having the correct brass length and knowing how long your chamber is, is worth the 5 $ for sure. It will at least reduce carbon ring buildup, as the closer the neck is the chambers neck the faster the brass will seal the chamber, and reduce any...

    Redding T7

    I would not worry too much, the T7 will do just fine for what you are looking for and is a quality press. There can be a bit of slop in it, but this can be fixed, do a search for it and you will find. Still it tends to produce good ammo, although adding a O-ring under your dies will likely...

    Concentricity Gauge....

    If you want the best there is get the Accuracy one. For something more reasonably priced the 21 st century gauge is very good. The concentricity fixer is more of a gimmick. To move a seated bullet sideways, will definatly mess with your neck tension, possibly your seating depth, so you might as...

    300 Norma Mag die options?

    Frank is right the WTc die is a piece of art, also remember to buy several neck/shoulder inserts so you can adjust neck tension accordingly. And you can get a new body insert and neck/shoulder pieces to use it for several similar calibers if the price is hard to swallow. With the supplied...

    If your looking to get hold of bullets that are not exported to Canada, you can try reloading international. They Carry the JLK's amongst other. As for the new Scenar L's they lack a bit in Bc but the consistency is truly excellent. In that regard they pound the Bergers, for half the price...

    Looking for advice on a long range hunting rig from the reloading perspective

    I have a weakness for the 7's so i would personally have gone with a 7 RM between those two, the 300 will have a bit more energy and a bigger bore so it will most likely seem a bit more effective at the longer shots, but both will take elk out to considerate ranges using a good bullet, shot...

    Once fired brass to get shipped from US to AUS

    Well it is not so easy as to just send it to you. If you want to export brass from the US legally, you will need a export permit, witch costs a couple hundred dollars and takes a time to get approved. So it's not just to press the buy button and wait for it to arrive, in general for small...

    Custom die, then different brass OK?

    If the choice is between those two i'd choose the Whidden FL bushing sizer, they are of good quality. If you do not use a expander in your die, you should seriously consider turning necks and get a expander die. Having all the neck inconsistencies, pushed to the inside of the neck by your...

    Who is using IMI brass in .308?

    IS it IMI regular or Match brass? Generally IMI brass is very strong and quality is decent. It is military brass though, so better suited for semis and autos then LR precision rifles, especially the standard version. The normal brass will have quite a bit thicker case walls compared to...

    Omega auto trickler help

    After the initial setup the Omega auto should reliably be able to finish the cycle without needing any attention yes. If you do fasten the bracket in a proper way to the scale or the bench, movement and re setup should not be a issue either. I suspect the bracket could be made heavier to begin...
