    Any Turnkey Brass Preppers on here ?

    Bogey, I hear ya. It's pretty time intensive. I'm loading by hand, don't have automated charge throwers and loaded up three ladders yesterday and just throwing charges and bullets took me about 6 hours. Of course weighing different charges to the tenth of a grain takes some time.

    Any Turnkey Brass Preppers on here ?

    How do u define completely prepped? For me that would mean cleaned decal per annealed, resized, trimmed to length, neck chamfered and deburred, primer pockets uniformed, flash hole deburred, and maybe neck turned. For others it only includes cleaning decapping and resizing and some include...

    Picking up Savage 110 FCP in 338 Lapua

    The barrels were close enough that I thought it might be an optical illusion. I was going to email savage when I got closer to buying to ask just to make sure because a larger barrel woul make the decision for me.

    Picking up Savage 110 FCP in 338 Lapua

    I don't own either of These so take it with a grain of salt. I handled both a couple of weeks ago as I'm thinking about purchasing them myself. I own the 10 ba and really like the ergonomics of it. coming from an ar background its comfortable for me. And it's a real hammer. The fcp has same...

    Had to jump in with a quick question. Maybe I misunderstood but I thought the 118lr was loaded into lake city brass not federal. Is this correct?

    Custom resize die shoulder bump question

    I had read some posts that you can have a custom die made fr resizing by sending in fires cases. Is it lee that makes this? My actual question is will this come set to bump your shoulder back the .003 that is needed. Or do u still need to measure and set the die to do so? Thanks

    Picking up Savage 110 FCP in 338 Lapua

    it is and seems to be getting good reviews. I didnt mean to infer you were bashing, i just have a bias towards savage so Im likely to be a bit apologetic is all. I love my 10 ba! would love it in a 338

    Picking up Savage 110 FCP in 338 Lapua

    I read the kaboom thread, and just wanted to check my understanding of what i read. the big kaboom seems to have been operator error. He was having stuck cases and rather than quit shooting (seems like you would with that sign of pressure) he was pounding them out with his cleaning rod and...
