    300WSM and RE17

    Re: 300WSM and RE17 I'd really like to hear how this powder performs for you. I shoot 185 Berger hunting VLD's and 190 Sierra Matchkings out of my 300WSM. I'm not using Rx17 in the 300WSM, but I am using Rx25. I started out with 19 and 22 but it seemed like both of these powders produced...

    Case Separating Without Firing

    Re: Case Separating Without Firing If bumping the bullet doesn't work I'd get a bullet puller and tear them down. You may not be able to save the brass, but you might be able to save the bullets and powder.

    whats does it mean when the bolt is hard to close?

    Re: whats does it mean when the bolt is hard to close? If you're full length sizing and correct trim length is not fixing the problem then the necks need to be turned. What happens is every time the brass is fired, the brass actually flows forward on the case. After many firings the brass...

    Re: CCI #34 for .308 bolt gun These primers have performed well in several 308 and larger cartridges in my rifles. I could not tell any difference from FGM in group size or chrono data.

    seating bullets out for new brass??
