    How do Whidden Mic seaters measure up?

    I'm looking to buy dies for my new 6.5 Creedmore build. I'm seeing more and more Whidden dies available. How does the quality measure up to Redding and Forster? Thanks-

    Pre-64 Winchester mod 70 project

    I have a pre-64 Win model 70 in 30-06, that I was thinking of rebarrelling to a flatter shooting cartridge. Could you recommend a cartridge, and maybe a gunsmith that would do the work? I was thinking about maybe 6.5/06? Or should I stick with the stock barrel (are they considered cometition...

    s type bushing help

    I've experienced the "sizing too much" phenomenon before also. The directions do address it correctly, you have to size it down in two separate steps when you are first necking it down from a larger caliber, or are sizing necks with thick walls. Now you know why Redding makes that handy and...

    Rifle Scopes Need opinion regarding nf velocity reticle

    I would like the "LV" version for the 308 using a 175SMK bullet, but the BDC lines correspond to something like 2000' ASL elevation. I guess that's one down side to BDC reticles.

    Powder thrower

    Agreed. I had Harrell's best measure. It is definately the finest measure out there, but didnt throw any more accurately as my RCBS with baffle and micro stem.

    Is 8 x 1lbers or 8lb jug better?

    I've noticed if I havent used powder from an eight pounder in awhile, it seems to weigh less per graduated throw. I assume some chemical in it has evaporated or something over the period of unuse. (Is that a word? Lol) I figured the eight one pounders lets you keep seven "fresh/unopened"...

    Is 8 x 1lbers or 8lb jug better?

    If you had a choice between getting your favorite rifle powder in eight one pound jugs (with the same lot #s), or one eight pound jug, which do you prefer? Or would it matter to you? Just wondering .....

    .308 Rem 5r help

    I have a Rem 5-R also, and although very accurate, all my loads seem much slower than other prople's using the same loads. Could the long freebore have something to do with this?

    Varget changing weight/volume?

    Your powder may have dried some, since opened. Now it is lighter. I found this same thing when using powder from 8lb jugs that I don't use often.

    MK262 clone 77Grain 5.56 load problems / updated OCW tests

    Very good point, and something a lot of guys don't consider. Atmospheric temp is not the only thing to consider.
