    Redding Dies - Which ones to get?

    Make things easy on yourself. Forster micrometer seating die and a Redding Type-S FL bushing die. Don't worry about buying the more expensive bushings, the standard will be fine as you will be lubing your cases anyways for the FL sizing. Oh, and remember to pull out the inside expander from...

    Dillon 650 AND single stage?

    FWIW, I won't spend the money to set-up a progressive for calibers I don't shoot much, ie 270, 30-06, 243, etc. and other hunting calibers, those still get loaded on a single stage.

    Dillon 650 AND single stage?

    A progressive will produce ammo just as accurate as any single stage. Many of us here have been loading this way for years. Also, many of us have multiple single stage presses, that pretty much just gather dust anymore. There are some very nice and expensive priming systems out there, and I...

    Question for those who use Forster Honed dies.

    This link will take you to Forster's website that explains the three different .308 sizing dies. Scroll down and click on ".308 caliber info" They are also easy people to speak with over the phone. https://www.forsterproducts.com/product/full-length-sizing-dies/

    OCW vs Ladder vs Plain FPS

    All three methods will get you to roughly the same place, IF done correctly. Just your choice of which vehicle to drive to get there.

    setting up modest reloading station: scale advice?

    That quote was from a website that sells the scales, the same site the links for the other scales take you to. I'm not sure I agree with their conclusion about one kernel equaling 1.3 ft/sec. either. Seems just a little too simple to be accurate, perhaps this is an average?? But, yes, I do...

    setting up modest reloading station: scale advice?

    Here's an excerpt I found... If you are a competition benchrest shooter and shooting over 400 yards the FX-120i is NOT what you want to buy since you will be ± 1 or 2 kernels of powder. You either want a Prometheus powder measure or the Sartorius Entris64-1S. A single kernel of Varget weighs...

    Case Neck Tension with Stainless Steel cleaned brass

    This. The case necks are not too clean, but they do need to be cleaned-up. The SS pins rolling over the case neck create small burrs, these need to be removed. Use the deburring tool then finish with some steel wool and your bullets will seat buttery smooth again. Accuracy should be as good as...

    You did lube the inside of the neck, correct?

    Also, let One Shot dry for 15-20 minutes. I know the directions say you can use it immediately after spraying, but you really can't. Wait the 15.

    A qtip with some Imperial sizing wax is a good way to go

    Malinois vs Czech Shepherd

    Just something to think about.... Even though you have the time to dedicate to a high-energy dog right now, a family can radically change that. Think five years down the road, will you still have time to fulfill the dog's needs? Personally, I wouldn't buy a Mal unless I needed their traits...

    Downsides to "loading down"?

    Loading magnum cartridges to slower speeds is not anymore dangerous than any other type of reloading. One just must know what they are doing. And to the OP, you're way overthinking this. If you want to shoot reduced loads in your 300, go right ahead, people have been doing it for decades. Stay...

    Scales scales scales... tell me about your scale!

    orkan Thanks for your real life insight, the kind ONLY gained through experience and not from speculation. Some of us greatly appreciate that. Automated powder dispensing is not something that interests me right now, but it's good to know where to find the best if that changes. Keep up the...
