    Hornady Custom Grade Dies question

    Just got a set of Hornady Custom Grade Dies in 6.5X06 and I can't figure out if they are glass blasted or industrial chromed. Does anyone know? I have some Durachrome dies that have the same appearance but there is nothing on box or in the literature that tells for sure. This is first set of...

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials I was just thinking. If a guy had a lathe he could make a larger diameter pully which would tighten the belts up and make the drum run faster. FWIW the black rubber belts never held up long with me but the clear plastic ones have yet to have a failure...

    Case Lube Procedure

    Re: Case Lube Procedure Imperial sizing die wax works well. A cheaper lube is Grease Auto and Artillery GAA (milsurp grease) and Grease Aircraft Wide Temp Range WTR. I just touch it with tip of trigger finger, transfer it to thumb and rub fingers on all vertical surfaces. If you can feel...

    Re: Tight bore barrel What do you consider a tight bore? I have tight barrels and one is .298x3055. Another is .2983X.307. The .298X.3055 must be downloaded about four grains to develop the same velocity a normal barrel (.300X.308")gives so start off with the lowest recommended load and...
