    V3 Auto Trickler issue

    I know of two fellows up here in Canada that have eliminated the Auto throw unit. They replaced it with the Lee manual unit. They drop the bulk of the powder with the Lee unit and then use the auto trickler to complete the charge.

    Autotrickler V3 - CE Products?

    The Area 419 accessories are nice. I have them all, and my wallet is still complaining.

    Extreme Rebel 17

    For my brass cleaning needs, I’ve used a Thumler’s Tumbler Model B for 6 years. It works wonderfully. Add five pounds of stainless steel pins, a squirt of mild dishwashing soap, a squirt of a citric acid rinsing agent, and some de-capped dirty brass. Fill with water and turn it on.... After an...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    Wow...there’s a lot of pages to look through. Here in Canada, there is a serious shortage of powder happening. H4350 or even IMR4350 is unobtanium up here. I have quite a bit of IMR4064 and I would like to see if anyone has a load for it with 140gr class bullets. The rifle has a 24” 1:8”...

    6.5CM Velocity question

    I was wondering what kind of velocities people are getting from a 24" barrel with 140gr class bullets with the 6.5 Creedmoor round. Accuracy node velocities and max. load velocities are what I'm looking for. Also, what temperature was it when you got your speed results.

    Has anyone tried IMR4064 with Berger 140gr Hybrid target bullets?

    Hand Loading for Precision Rifle (Pic Heavy)

    Since it’s so cold (-10c) and the wind is blowing at a gale force this Saturday, I thought I would reload some cartridges for my Timberwolf (C-14) in 338LM. For time sake, I’m not showing the de-capping, wet tumbling, or the drying steps. Step 1. Annealing. After 4 firings with the magnum, it’s...

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    A hundred rounds of 6.5x47L. Thirty eight grains of Varget inside Lapua cases with 139gr Lapua Scenars on top and BR4’s to light the fire.

    TRG22, near rail, and Athlon Cronus BTR.... what one piece scope mount?

    Richard Near also makes a nice one piece mount. opps, I see you’ve looked at that option.

    (Canada's) ATRS ACCU-MAXX Reloading Press VS. (Germany's) Heavy Präzipress 140mm

    Sean, I‘m not familiar with the German press, but I’ve owned the big ATRS press. My focus on that press was the BMG round. CH4d dies fit beautifully with the bigger threaded press. I own a Co-Ax and love it’s torque and leverage when loading up to the .338LM case. The ATRS rig‘s leverage is off...

    Redding Instant Indicator vs Calipers + Comparator

    Interesting tool. I have never seen it before. So if I want one for .223rem, 6.5CM, 6.5x47L, .308win, and .338LM, how do I order it? Do I order one with the dial indicator and then the rest without? The link shows the tool, but the description is vague. Any help is appreciated.

    Need some guidance on 308 load using 175's

    That 20” barrel might be a bit short to generate velocities that the 175gr class projectiles work well with. IMHO.

    Thoughts on first chronograph

    Really? I’ve had one since they were introduced. Before that, I had a MS. I liked the MS. But I have never seen or heard of anyone having “problems” with the LR that required returning it for “service”. And my shooting group has a dozen or so members with at least 8 of us using the LR. Can you...

    Single feeding...

    ....yeah...I load 'em long. So single feeding is my order of the day. ;-)

    Thoughts on first chronograph

    Yes it will work on pistols. You need an adapter to mount it.

    Single stage press for up to 338LM; Forster Co-Ax vs Harrell Sportsman

    From the base where the case sits (in the jaws), to the underside of the slotted opening for the dies....it measures about 4.25”.

    SS / wet tumbling - media preservative

    They don't need to be dry. I said above that they are ready immediately to use. Wet or dry. As for clean....to each their own. I use Dawn dish soap and Lemi-Shine citric acid. I like to rinse them after use. If you don't...that's ok. And besides....they are supposed to be "stainless" steel...
