    My go to hunting rifle for years for all game in North America has been my Pre-64 Winchester model 70 in .375 H&H magnum, it has never failed me and there is just something nice about a cartridge that has similar ballistics to a .30-06 but with a 300 grain bullet. But I also tend to be a but old...

    Stupid Press Question

    So I have been reloading for about 30 years but still have no single stage press. I bought a Dillon 450 (since upgraded to a 550B) I don't know how many years ago. Lately when reloading using a single stage press, I have been going over to a friends house and using his RCBS AmmoMaster II...

    High Quality Compass?

    I would agree on the military lensatic, they are a good compass. You could also consider this one - https://tnvc.com/shop/m-73-leaders-compass/ or https://tnvc.com/shop/m-88-warriors-compass/

    VV N160 Load advice

    Thanks for the replies guys. Your answers were pretty much what I figured, but it never hurts to ask a dumb question. A couple more dumb questions if you all don't mind. Do you all think that it still adequate for 225 gr. bullets in the .338LM? I can always get a bunch of 225gr bullets an...

    VV N160 Load advice

    So here is the deal. I made a great score on a 8 pound keg of Vihtavuori N160. I would like to use this powder for my Remington 700MLR .338 LM but the heaviest bullet that they have load data for is for a 225gr. bullet. I prefer 250gr. bullets and was wondering if anyone has any advice since...

    What are some good optional reloading pieces?

    I have yet to see any tumbler with a four hour timer, just wish someone would incorporate one with a timer. If you already have a Thumler's on the way then don't worry about it. My bad for not getting to you faster. you will still like your tumbler. I have a RCBS case prep center and the tool...

    What are some good optional reloading pieces?

    If I was looking to buy a first tumbler then I would go this route instead Stainless Tumbling Media | Stainless Tumbling Media Package. This is the new tumbler that they are selling and looks much superior to the Thumbler's Tumbler. I currently have the Thumbler's and while good, does have...

    For Irish Whiskey Drinkers

    So as it happens I have 2 cases (12 bottles) of Old Bushmills Millennium Malt 25 year single malt Irish whiskey. Does anyone have any idea of what these may be worth. While I used to drink Bushmills, I have since quit drinking and they really do not do me a lot good. Thanks in advance guys.

    Oehler 35P Thoughts & Review

    Also interested in this comparison. I am really interested in the magnetospeed since it is so much easier to set up and much more compact than the 35P.
