    Re: Once Fired Lake City 308 Match Brass I agree, sell it and get some other brass to mess around with. PM me if you are interested in selling it. It's good brass for sure and would be good for someone running a 308 in tactical matches or in a gas gun. I use it in a gas gun do to the...

    Gunsmithing Skim bed Sako trgs?

    So i have a trg 22 that should be in today, and I cant wait to get it out and try it. I know that they are plenty accurate out of the box, but the name of this game is tight as possible. I believe that the trg uses an aluminum bedding block similar to the AICS, and I know some smiths skim bed...

    Expander ball dragging- way to fix?

    Being new to reloading I am wondering if there is any way to fix what appears to be the expander ball of the die from dragging on the case neck as it exits? I understand that as you lower the die the expander ball enters the neck and reforms it to the correct size. However then when I raise...
