    5 calibers everyone should own

    Re: 5 calibers everyone should own I agree with most posts above, but I would add the proviso, under what circumstances are we picking the top 5 calibers? i.e., doomsday scenarios?, or for a balanced collection?

    Reloading magnum calibers on Dillon 550b???

    Thoughts from experienced reloaders on using a Dillon 550b for magnum calibers. I have fairly good success while reloading for my 308 (powder selection and technique are key), but can someone comment on relaoding the 338 Lapua Magnum?

    Which 338LM rifle?

    Re: Catching brass? When training I take care to remove the case so it doesn't hit the ground. Don't know if it has any value, but I figure that no real operator leaves any trace behind, and besides with brass prices going up, I try not to lose any.
