    Twist rate fail with 230gr. A-tips for .300 WM- I didn’t read the fine print.

    No big deal. Midway emailed the return authorization and UPS took them back to Mr. Potterfield for a refund. I’ll buy some Berger’s made for my 10 twist and read the fine print next time. Daggone things were too expensive to just load them up and get pissed when they keyholed a foot from poa.

    kubota???

    I have had both Deere and Kubota. Biggest difference that I found, the hard way, is that Deere had a PTO with steel gears. Kubota uses Aluminum. The aluminum is known to turn into an expensive hand grenade. If under warranty, no problem. Mine was out of the extended warranty by a few weeks...

    Priming tool

    Frankford Arsenal Perfect Seat Hand Primer. Shell holder #8, which is one of many it ships with, for the Lapua Mag. Hold on to your Lee shellholders, as you may need a #2 for the .224 Valkyrie, as I did. This unit comes with both large and small primer punches, and has great feel, as did my old...

    Twist rate fail with 230gr. A-tips for .300 WM- I didn’t read the fine print.

    I found some 230gr A-tips at Midway, in stock. Looked the pics over, and ordered 300. They arrived today, plastered with the requirement for a 1x9 or faster twist rate. Of course, mine is 1x10. Midway makes it easy to return these, so no big deal. However, I am wondering if anyone has tried them...

    What goofy crap do you do to ensure consistency in your reloads?

    After seeing the RL550 bin full of fresh cartridges, I developed envy. Loading a few hundred rounds of Valkyrie or 300 Win Mag on the Co-Ax is SLOW. After having the Hornady drop a load, then confirmation of that load by the old RCBS scale, and finding out that in fact, the red machine makes one...

    Rifle Scopes Looking for recommendations for rails for new Bergara HMR

    Same here. Area 419 rail is a quality piece, and ships with two sizes of screws.

    RCBS Match Master Dispenser

    Thanks! That is what the red and green should provide, or at least they should repair them when they fail for two or three years.

    Down side to 300wm?

    My only issue with my Win Mag is recoil affect on all the many nuts and bolts in the gun, and behind it. Doesn't matter if I Loctite or not, the recoil of 50 to 100 rounds always loosens the same bedding bolt, sticks the AI folder stock's bolt to the point I have to tap the release button with...

    RCBS Match Master Dispenser

    Nice post. I found myself using a Chargemaster scale as a verification to my Hornady Autocharge. This worked well for 5 years or so, until the red machine choked. I have had both the red and the green machines. They both die after 4 or 5 years if you get a good one. They both have a crappy...

Looks brand new, and will ship as shown with bottom metal and both action screws. You'll see the tape holding the screws into the action holes. I will include 2...

    90gr SMK in Valkyrie-seating ring mark on bullets due to seating die?

    Bergara HMR Pro in 308 opinions

    I have the same plans for my HMR in .300 WM. I have placed the barreled action in an AW AICS stock, and will have a Krieger installed if I ever shoot this one out. I would just use a Bergara barrel if I could get it in a heavy Palma contour. Mine delivers way above its price point.
