    Help newbie find a node!

    I don't think that there is zero validity to the node idea as many people utilize that line of thought during their load development but I do agree that its not a major contributing factor. At least its not something that I have ever put too much weight behind. Consistency is key across the...

    One of your original questions was if the ambient temp change while you were shooting would have a large enough impact to see the vertical stringing you had during your test. Short answer... No. Varget is very temp stable.

    Also, while FC brass will work for a while while you are learning the ropes, you might want to consider trying a high quality brass eventually. Better consistency in brass thickness and volume, among other things, can play a significant part in consistency down range.

    Brass looks fine to me. I agree you should revisit 11-13 with #11 being the obvious winner for today. Vertical stringing can be caused by several variables. What powder are you using? If it’s a temp stable powder, the difference in ambient temp wouldn’t cause that much of an impact shift. More...

    Alpha or Lapua SRP Brass-6.5 Creedmoor

    Given that your original concern was which brass between Lapua and Alpha would help you achieve the velocity you were going for and you now have some info showing you most likely wouldn't have any issues, I would.

    Alpha or Lapua SRP Brass-6.5 Creedmoor

    Even better. That was exactly what I was looking at but I accidently read it wrong as 26". I would say you are good to go. Grab some Lapua now that you have some data that leads you to believe you wont have any issues hitting your stated goal with that brass specifically. Let us know how it...

    Alpha or Lapua SRP Brass-6.5 Creedmoor

    Again, I have no experience in loading for 6.5 CM as it was never a cartridge that I picked up. So take everything I say with a grain of salt. A quick search on Bergers website shows the 153.5gr factory ammo out of a 26" barrel moving at 2702 out of the muzzle. Berger loads their factory stuff...

    Alpha or Lapua SRP Brass-6.5 Creedmoor

    What velocity are you shooting for? You aren't going to see drastic difference between the two. Sure brass thickness and case capacity will be very slightly different due to them being 2 different brands but they will be close enough to each other to the point that you are down to splitting...

    Long Rifles Inc communication "must read"

    Well... I was on the fence about going the LRI route for an action I already have lying around for one of my upcoming projects. Not anymore. While this is an old thread, the consistency of positive experiences that have been shared has been awesome to read about. With the exception of 1...

    Alpha or Lapua SRP Brass-6.5 Creedmoor

    I cant help with the 147-156 in 6.5 because I have never owned a 6.5 oddly enough. I can chime in on the brass quality though. You wont go wrong either way. They are both high quality. My personal opinion is that one is not any better than the other.

    Brass Priming Service? - Large Rifle Magnum Primers

    After re-reading your original post, I noticed that you specifically addressed the fact that these primers were for manufacturing... I'm not sure how I missed that the first time around. That presents an interesting opportunity to help move your slower moving brass as you mentioned. I had not...

    Brass Priming Service? - Large Rifle Magnum Primers

    While I can see this being a successful endeavor, I am curious... With the market the way it is, wouldn't it be more cost effective to sell the primers and brass separately? The primers would fly off your shelves in a matter of minutes and quality brass has a steady demand. Combing the two would...
