    RL 26 / Large Rifle Primers - what caliber for this combo?

    People have had decent luck with RL26 in 6.5 creedmoor. Probably easiest place to start.

    Action for a 37XC

    As far as I know they are all single shot in the M size and larger. I appreciate this as magazines available for longer cartridges are limiting. For example, I shoot a .338 Lapua that the OAL is nearly 4” to have as little bullet in the case as possible. This would not feed from a magazine...

    Action for a 37XC

    BAT Machine. They make some gigantic actions, but an M may work. McMillan inlets for them.

    Custom Whidden Dies: experiences ordering based off reamer print vs fired brass

    I’m not sure how they calculated the correct undersize for my dies. I didn’t specify. They chambered the rifle with my reamer and the supplied print. It’s possible they measured the actual reamer. I don’t think they fired the rifle to get brass to measure. They sent the rifle back with the...

    Custom Whidden Dies: experiences ordering based off reamer print vs fired brass

    I had some 30-338 Lapua dies made from the print. I’ve never measured anything on them but I can say they work perfectly. I’ve resized the same brass several times without excessive growth, pressure, clicks on extraction, etc. I think the Whidden customer service is better than most. Perhaps...

    Co-AX, RCBS Or Redding T7?

    At least the above ones hold their value well. Any should be good enough to start. Try one and sell it if you hate it. More likely, you will have several before it's over with. You can't go wrong with any Dillon. I just like the size of the 650/750 for rifle case processing. here's a video...

    Co-AX, RCBS Or Redding T7?

    I have several of the ones mentioned above. I think the Dillon 650 should be considered, even if you use it as a single stage at first. Mine is great for rifle case processing. Huge time saver. Add a case feeder and it's unbeatable for speed, even for simple things like priming cases.

    Rifle Scopes ZCO 527 long term review

    I just received my ZCO 527 from MKM. The Audere mounts are robust and seem to be very high quality. I have several SB PM2’s and Spuhr mounts. The ZCO seems to be an upgrade from the SB. The Audere mounts seem to be just as refined, but a better value than the Spuhr. Tyler provided great...

    Precision rifle with factory match vs hand load

    The powder was mostly +-.5gr each. There were a few that were close to a grain. I seated 5 thousands shorter than they were originally as that’s what the setting was on my dies that day. I shot those at 600 yards with very little vertical, although I didn’t chrono them. It was mostly an...

    Precision rifle with factory match vs hand load

    I recently pulled the bullets on a 200 count American Gunner 140 Creed factory bulk box. Then I reprocessed them by weighing the charges to .05gr or less variance. After reseating the same bullets, the groups were less than half what the ammo originally shot. Whether it was the powder charge...

    Berger 130gr VLD Hunting

    I’ve used a few thousand in 6.5 x 47L. They are a little sensitive to jump but you’d probably never notice shooting steel within practical range of a Creed- 1000-1200 ish yards. I moved to hybrids, but never worried shooting with vld’s.

    Redding Instant Indicator vs Calipers + Comparator

    I like it for case sizing on a Dillon 650/750. Gives instant readout as I go.
