    .308 Winchester

    I’m running 44.5 RL15 in Hornady match brass with 57.6 gr H2O, which is 2g more than LAPUA brass in same gun. 45 is at pressure 45.5 def blows pockets in my brass. Hornady softer, so could run harder brass harder. Shoots lights out, and is close to USGI loads which use RL15 (& other powders, eg...

    .308 Winchester

    my 308 loves RL15 for the 178s. AR-COMP and VARGET come close but not quite (got plenty of both). With H4895 hitting the shelves again, I've been thinking of giving it a try, since RL15 can't be found and is temp sensitive. Looks like RL15 and H4895 are very close on the burn rate chart... Any...

    Knife sharpening for dummies

    Yes you can do that. Especially with soft steals. He probably is very often cutting with a burr which can be very sharp and then bending it back-and-forth until it won’t cut anymore and then making a new burr on the steel rod. Very toothy edge. Will definitely get the job done under those...

    Knife sharpening for dummies

    I know a couple of things about sharpening having done it for 40 years on Arkansas stones and the last 15 on a TORMEK system with AlOx, PA-50, jap stones, diamond stones and diamond impregnated leather and CrOx. Here is what I consider to be the basics regardless of what system you’re using but...

    Knife sharpening for dummies

    The whole rule about keeping a knife sharp to prevent an injury comes from meat cutters in slaughterhouses They have to use great force to cut through the carcass day in and day out hour after hour and when their knife gets dull they use greater force and it slips and they cut themselves. That...

    Knife sharpening for dummies

    Run in the dishwasher?!?! That is one of the top three rules of maintaining a knife. There is no hope for a sharp knife that goes through the dishwasher unless it wasn’t even sharp to begin with so you don’t notice the difference

    Knife sharpening for dummies

    This is a myth that goes at least back to the 1980s with a guy named John Juranich who used to go to the trade shows and do a parlor trick where he would take a double bit ax dull it on a brick then sharpen it to a razor edge and shave his full beard with it. He wrote a whole book on my...

    Ingenuity Powder System

    Well I am prepared to get banned for this. And so be it. But the old thread was shut down for “non-technical comments on a technical thread“ or maybe that’s just what I got banned for. This one has been allowed to continue in such a fashion inexplicably. But these are now “technical” comments...

    “One” of the machine”s” Buy another one! The only new thing about the latest delay is that some semblance of a reason for it has been offered. But the same “next month“ is projected. If the (one) machine can’t get fixed in three weeks and the representative can’t come out, why do we think...
