    Re: New reloader to the game 175 SMK over the 168 SMK. Its only a tad heavier and with take you further than the 168smk. In your travels you will come across some 168smk bashing. Thats due to some issues it has going past 800 yards, because of its design. Not a problem if your not going past...

    My worst day yet of reloading, feel free to share

    Re: My worst day yet of reloading, feel free to share Ohh man that sucks. My advice is to try out imperial sizing wax/lube. You will not get stuck cases using this stuff. I have found that with spray lubes, if you dont use enough thats when stuck cases occur. Dont let this put you off.

    Re: Rem Sendero 7mm Mag and Berger 180 VLD Yeh mate that will work. You just need to find your seating depth, but besides that the VLD's are some of the best projectiles out there. In fact the 180gr 7mm Berger VLD is my favorite projectile.

    Varget or RL-17? .308 208gr Amax

    Re: Varget or RL-17? .308 208gr Amax I dont think it really matters all that much, but I use Varget(AR2208) just like John because where we come from Reloader isnt as common as ADI powders. We still have RL17 but its not every day you see it.

    Annealing: just getting started

    Re: Annealing: just getting started Based on what you say I think your at least "in the safe zone". Nothing will go boom in a bad way when you pull the trigger. See how it all goes, at least you now have the equipment, you can always fine tune the timing and flame length.
