    How's McMillan accuracy?

    Re: How's McMillan accuracy? As a McMillan Tac-308 owner/shooter, I've got to say the accuracy is superb. Mine has a 24" Schnieder barrel and suppressed. I did loads of research before ordering but had to have a McMillan. Still, I agree with vkc as I've shot next to GAP rifles and...

    press and dies

    Re: press and dies Forster co-ax. If you are going to FL size with Forster dies, it would be 'better', if you used their lube.

    RCBS Charge Master

    Re: RCBS Charge Master 'had mine for 3-4 months and agree that there are a few problems. Long grain powders to me, bunch and do sometimes cause a heavy load even with the straw. It's still much more pleasent to use than conventional methods. My next upgrade was a Giraud case trimmer and now...

    New to Forster press and dies---problem.

    Re: New to Forster press and dies---problem. I found that I COULD screw the die in further. I put about 1/4 inch of turn on the thread and that did it. I've not seen the floating press/die relationship before. I will have to slightly re-trim/chamfer but the Giroud device makes it so easy...

    New to Forster press and dies---problem.

    Re: New to Forster press and dies---problem. Thanks for opinions.I do shoot the Tac308 and it shoots great. All of my other presses/dies I've had no issues. I just got the notion to switch to Forster. I clean pockets, seat with the Forster priming device. I will try to screw down the die...

    New to Forster press and dies---problem.

    Re: New to Forster press and dies---problem. The primers are seated and recessed, and to add that the primer strike dimple is after firing to about 1/4 of the cases. The die is screwed down to touch the Forster jaw shell plate. I've only loaded 20 'test' cases until I work this issue out or...

    New to Forster press and dies---problem.

    I've used Hornady, then RCBS and now Forster. i've found out that common lubes (One Shot etc.),don't work with Forster FL dies. Even with their stuff, it's still slightly difficult. #2- my bolt is offering some resistance closing and is leaving a dimple in the primer. This is following...

    Suppressors Is your rifle as accurate w/ suppressor as w/ out?

    Re: Is your rifle as accurate w/ suppressor as w/ out? With the AAC Cyclone, my POI did initially change. Since adjusting for that, I shoot exclusively with it attached and it is every bit as accurate. And agree- a heat shield, cuts down on suppressor mirage but also holds in heat.

    Maggie’s Memories of Carlos Hathcock

    Re: Memories of Carlos Hathcock I met Gunny as a young Marine at Quantico in the late 70's. He spoke to us on the rifle range early one morning. All I remember was the color/texture of his skin. The significance of who he was didn't fully sink in until I read his book some years later. I...
