    Giraud Power Case Trimmer Ya, Nay

    Love my Giraud... Sadly, a report on another forum states Doug Giraud passed away suddenly from a heart attack. Service to be held August 3rd.

    Single Pistol powder for mid range loads with cast bullets in 357,41,44, mags & 45 colt?

    I use Titegroup as Hodgdon claims it's position insensitive. Works great in 357 and 44 in my experience with hard cast bullets.

    Mine will have 80% left after 2 hours. I understand the more you shoot the more it uses the battery vs stand by.

    SD's in .223 /5.56

    That particular load is for my 16" M4 with a red dot so I can't speak to it's accuracy. I do have a load using a 75 RMR with Tac for my WOA 26" upper that is very accurate with a SD around 5.5 for 10 shots. Effective out to 670 yards which is the limit of our range.

    SD's in .223 /5.56

    I found it takes some load development, maybe more so than other cartridges. I worked up a powder charge first then tried different OALs. Aero Precision 16" with 55 FMJBT and Tac.

    New Trimmer Advice

    I really like my Giraud. I picked up this tool to keep my fingers from getting sore.

    reversible moving target motor and electrical systems

    I bought a moving target system from Action Targets years ago. It reverses and runs off a wearable battery pack, a 12 volt battery or the battery in a vehicle. When I get home I'll see what the motor shows. It's not very big.

    With the new update transfered a session to my S21 and was able to read it, etc. Cool. I then downloaded it to the device. However, I can't find that spreadsheet anywhere on the S21. ??? Anyone know where these downloads go?

    LC 556 brass and AMP Aztec codes

    I figure it will be better at 126 than nothing at all.

    LC 556 brass and AMP Aztec codes

    I have over 20 different years of LC 556 and they test between 125 to 127. For mixed LC 556 I use 126. Works fine. I also have a very large batch of LC21 and everytime a primer pocket gets loose I analyze it. So far they are consistently testing at 125. I watched something where Alex said 1...

    seating depth test 8208xbr/77gr smk

    I didn't know what to start with so focused on the powder charge first. For my AR mag length loads I used 2.250" and worked up the charge with Ramshot Tac and found a sweet spot. For single shot long range work I measured the lands and tried the same powder charge but changed the OAL. Best...

    223 80g ELDM 28"

    My 26" WOA AR15 likes 75gr BTHP with a Nato level charge of Ramshot Tac, CCI450 and LC brass. I also get great accuracy, but at lower velocity, with BLC2 and 8208XBR.

    SS Wet Tumbling: Chips vs Pins

    Long ago I had a rock tumbler and used dry media. It worked. Then I got a RCBS Sidewinder rotary. With it I switched to water. Using either the RCBS liquid media or just Dawn. 9mm acted as it's own media and came out shiny but would not clean the inside or the primer pockets. I mixed 556 and...

    AMP really worth the extra $$$$$$

    The AMP is my choice. I don't mind the one at a time method as I run brass through it after every return from the range. Typically, that's 50 rounds or less. I love the convenience of simply turning it on and push a few buttons and ready to go. Switching cartridges, lots or headstamps is just...

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    The answer for me is yes, it will survive. Freaked me out but happened on my 2nd outing...used it many times since then and haven't seen any problems.
