    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    I grabbed 1500 and then saw there's 223 62 grain fusion. I should've added those to the order to get free shipping but I saw them too late.

    Getting started, need a little guidance

    Most of what you have listed is really good. You should have no problem being successful with that. Primers, use what you can find. Raven Rocks has rem LRM 9 1/2s for about $350. That's a pretty good deal. Small rifle primers have now become pretty cheap and pretty available so you shouldn't...

    Painting a barreled action?

    Easy peasy. Yes I've had luck doing this. Although I wouldn't call it luck. It's really just doing shit right. Prep your surfaces good and you'll have good outcome. Don't be scared and have fun with it.

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    How are you liking the seekins? I've been wanting one for a while. What barrel length did you get? I also debate going complete custom route with an origin and custom barrel in a chassis of my flavor.

    .308 Winchester

    You're telling me Hornady brass is that good? I mean it's hornady. It might be, I'm not discrediting you, I would just have a hard time believing that. And any inaccuracies or inconsistencies would leave me second guessing my choice of having mixed lots. 🤷🏽

    .308 Winchester

    You're trying to fix a problem by adding another one with this method. If you use all same headstamp brass, like all hornady, it might give decent accuracy and numbers. However, if your goal is to reduce ES & SD as best as possible, you need it all to be from same lot. Also, what's your brass...

    How do you know if bedding is needed?

    I'm good with MDT too and buy a bunch of their products too. But for the howa mini, they didn't have a chassis/stock that didn't require the shitty factory howa mags. The rifle itself, while cheap and not fancy at all, will serve as a great loaner or beater rifle.

    How do you know if bedding is needed?

    Throughout the entire time I tested loads, it was always torqued around 55 pounds. I played with loosening and tightening recently only after I concluded it might not have a good mate. I played with it to look for or feel my rifle shifting in the stock.

    How do you know if bedding is needed?

    It's just a cheap howa mini guys, so I'm not expecting benchrest accuracy. I bought it with the intention of having a cheap plinker/truck gun/loaner rifle. I'm just gonna go ahead and learn how to bed on this rifle haha. If nothing good comes of it or I fuck it up, at least it'll serve as a...

    @Mean_Man @straightshooter1 I appreciate you guys helping me and giving me tips from this range session below when I last went shooting. I think someone had asked about my COAL. I'm back home from work for the weekend and if anyone is still interested, that was right at 2.860" ± .004. I'm...

    How do you know if bedding is needed?

    Hey fellow hiders, TLDR: Torquing and loosening action screws causes action to shift up and down. Stock has aluminum bedding block but maybe its not making a perfect mate. FULL STORY: I've got a rifle that quite frankly I can't seem to get shooting to my liking and struggles with...
