    308 rifle options

    I don't have much to add as far as the brand - but once you decide what it is you want I recommend watching the Firearms For Sale thread here or the individual vendor site (such as GAP's ready to ship rifle page) for a week or two. If you order today vs waiting a couple weeks while watching for...

    Recommend a good chronograph

    +1 on this. I bought one from MH as part of their GB - couldn't be happier.

    Reloading 308 & 260

    The stickies at the top of this thread have a wealth of information in them covering much of this. Given the calibers I'm guessing you're not shooting 'spray and pray' style so a single stage press would likely do well for you. If you buy a kit there will be additional parts (let alone...

    Dillon Super Swage 600...opinions?

    I've had one for a year or two and use it on crimped 5.56 - works great, solidly built, and relatively quick. Not sure what other options you are looking at but I'd buy it again for sure.

    New reloader seeking bench.

    LOL - I follow now. I didn't catch the homemade butcher block part - yeah you are dead on there that would be ugly!

    New reloader seeking bench.

    Yes and no - if you want something super fancy yeah you may need those tools. However, if you want something functional and TOUGH you could get by with a drill and a circular saw. I built one like this: EAA Chapter 1000 Standardized Work Table Plans a few years back. For the table top I doubled...

    First impressions of the Hornady powder dispenser

    I hadn't heard the 'cut wedges' part - I will have to give that a whirl as well.

    Those are slick. Wonder if they plan to make a 34mm version?

    Midway close out on 6.5 creedmoor brass

    Not a close-out like its going away I hope - just the same clearance price they've been running for awhile. Guessing they just want to move some... Hornady Reloading Brass 6.5 Creedmoor Box of 50

    If you watch close GAP 10s go by in the Firearms For Sale thread periodically - actually one or two there now I believe.

    If you happen to have an old UPS from your computer it works great for protection and voltage regulation as well.

    What dies should I buy? Newbie here

    Didn't see it anywhere in the thread but is the 6.5 semi or bolt? I recently ordered some Redding dies and they did not recommend the Type S for semi auto.

    Talk to me about 6.5 Creedmoor in a GAP-10

    The kit cost is just the start of the costs. You will easily add 2-300 more in parts/components to get that first round: caliper, dies, gages, tumbler, components, book(s). That said - it is incredibly worth it IMO. Producing QUALITY ammo on your schedule is amazing. Check out the reloading and...

    6.5 Creedmoor Dies

    I was recently shopping for the same - everything was sold out whenever I looked. About a week ago Midway got the Redding 2 and 3 die sets in stock if you want a Redding set. Should also note there is a Redding group buy going on but it is a pretty long lead time if you go that route. Promise...
