    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    When I first got my Fx120i I did manual throw then finished with a vibratory trickler going into funnel in lid of scale. It was not super fast but better than my lyman gen 3 lol.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    The V3 interface is what allows the ingenuity trickler to communicate with the scale. Did you watch his video?

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    There is lots posted on how to set up a V4. Short version - run the calibration and check the small tube flow. If it is .17 or lower than you need to tilt (shim) the unit from the back. You should be as close to .2 or .21 as possible then you can play with the rest of the settings to dial it...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Your machine is likely not dialed in right - my V4 runs 8 - 12 seconds for every powder we use without issue

    One-Day Range Load Development

    I have a portable load station I can set up in the back of my truck. You can also do pre weighed charges in vials so you don't wast components. Famous BR guy does that, he put out a video on it too.

    Newb wanting to start reloading

    I would use the search function, or go through the reloading forum for a few pages. This question is posted every week.

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    They use Fortis, a payment solutions platform, so you can use your credit card. I do not know anything about the reloading site but the payment company they use (Fortis) is legit.

    6cm Origin LD issue?

    Yup. 39.8 to 40.2 + or - a tenth is where it us at. Those are ejector slot marks with mild cratering on the primer. I would call that a safe max. Any higher and you would have heavier bolt lift. You can run hard on these actions, but your money is somewhere around 40 grains. My QL barrel...

    Berger 6.5mm 156g EOL, 153.5g LRHT, & 144g LRHT Load Data for 6.5 PRC

    What action are you running? Looks like a big horn or one with mechanical ejection. Looks like ejector slot marks on edge of primers and brass. If so, that is a warm load, very near or over max. I have run a similar load and it was right at max. I have since backed down to 2955 with 57.4 of...

    Dry Tumbling - Lead exposure? Wet - Neck peening? Ultrasonic instead?

    "just wet tumbling over serveral firings, will roll over/peen the necks of the brass." Bullshit. Been wet tumbling for years, never have this issue.

    Scratches/grooves INSIDE neck after neck turning

    either use a Dremel with buffer and a good polish or chuck the pilot on a drill and use a cloth with polish on it. You will see it smooth out. Might have to do it a few times. Just watch the pilot and brass as you go, if it starts leaving marks, polish it again. I do this with mandrels too...

    Garmin Chronograph - calibration?

    I have never had my trued velocity match the chrono numbers....it is why you true your calculator at distance. We true at 611. Lat one I just did, chrono (garmin) was at 2825. I was .1 mil high on water line, came down .1 and was on water line. Trued velocity in kestrel and it came out to...

    Shooting With Sunglasses

    I wear the Wiley X Sabre glasses. They have options for Rx if you contact them. They are not as dark as regular sun glasses and they have other colored lenses if you like. They do not have the coatings like some sun glasses and are not polarized. I have found sun glasses with all the...

    7mm PRC

    know issue. Dies and reamers are not right. Chambers typically need to be slightly larger or you need a custom die (small based) to size the body down. Standard dies do not size the body down enough and the clicker is the primary extraction being used at top of opening bolt. Adding - there...
