    Warning, this might cost you money.Pic Heavy-AX308

    Re: Warning...this might cost you money...Pic Heavy Let's see ... how does that saying go? "If you have to ask how much it costs ..." Great rig. The envy of many. If I owned that thing, it would receive a bedroom to itself in the house, a weekly allowance, and free beer from the kegerator.

    7mm Rem Mag hunting rifle

    Re: 7mm Rem Mag hunting rifle I developed a hunting handload for my buddy's Browning A-Bolt in 7mm REM MAG. I was seeing .5 MOA at 200 yards with 165-grain Sierra GameKing HPBT. I am not a Browning guy at all ... but that rifle was lights-out.

    Which 20" 308??

    Re: Which 20" 308?? I have been asked by a buddy to work up a match-grade handload for his 308 -- it is a bone-stock Savage 10 FP-SR. When I tested against factory ammo (Fed GMM) for a baseline, it shot consistent 5-shot groups of less than 1/2 inch at 100 yards. Average group was 0.470"...

    Re: siera 69gr 223 load I have found that my AR with a 16" 1:9 Colt Match barrel seems to really like the 69-gr SMK seated at magazine length with 25.5 grains of Varget. My target load.

    Reloading bench in Garage

    Re: Reloading bench in Garage My se-up is in the garage, and I have had zero issues. Then again, I live in a considerably drier climate than yours for 6 months out of the year. However, it rains an awful lot here in winter. Nonetheless, you should be fine. Just clean your dies every 6...

    Need a 308 do-all bullet

    Re: Need a 308 do-all bullet A-Max bullets are not suitable for hunting. That is not what they are designed to do. They are match bullets. They are not made to properly expand efficiently on game. They are not designed to retain weight upon impact. For a good hunting bullet up to...

    Suggestions on a reload kit

    Re: Suggestions on a reload kit The advice above is all good advice. I wish I had followed it when I first started handloading and bought a Hornady LNL single-stage kit. The press is fine, but that is about it. I have since replaced everything with better equipment from all major...

    New to reloading. Bought my first piece of kit

    Re: New to reloading. Bought my first piece of kit As for scales ... go with the Dillon beam scale for $56. It is made by Ohaus and is the exact same scale as the RCBS 505, but -- inexplicably -- $30 cheaper and has the benefit of notches on the tenth poise. No need to pay more than that...

    Stuck Case

    Re: Stuck Case Put the sizer in the freezer with the case still attached. Brass will shrink faster in freezing temperatures ... and you will be able to remove it after 6-8 hours.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Elite 6500 Tactical Knob Markings Green

    Re: Bushnell Elite 6500 Tactical Knob Markings Green If the enemy is close enough to see whether you have white or green turret markings, then I would say that you have other problems. I don't get it.
