    MP 435 Powder **Update** Shorted 2lbs!

    Has anyone played with the midwest powders 435? They claim it's similar to 8208xbr. Not finding anything about this stuff so figured I'd see if anyone has gotten hands on with it or not. https://americanreloading.com/reloading-rifle-powder/4784-mp-435-smokeless-rifle-powder-8-lbs.html

    multi calibers or just one. what do you guys do?

    I've been bitten by the barrel bug recently with a current project. a savage switch barrel. I started out planning on building a nice .260 rig out of it and holding on to the orgional .308 parts so I could convert it for hunting season. now I find myself buying and wanting to buy more barrels...

    broden cartridge selection or keep what you got?

    Figure i'd give you a quick background on my situation. over the last 5 years I consolidated calibers down to 22lr, 9mm, .308, 12gauge last year I sold my .308ar to finish my 300blk and build a bolt gun. I chose a .260 rem as my bolt gun caliber I for the life of me cannot find h4350 (or any...

    .223ai, 260 rem, or .308? budget build.

    Ive been slowly collecting money for my first long range gun. I've had my eyes set on a .223ai from a cost standpoint but starting to second guess myself and thinking simplicity or better ballistics may provail. I already load and have brass, bullets for .308, also have .223 brass but no ai die...

    caliber/weapon consolidation advice.

    Not sure if this is the appropriate sub forum for this question so please bare with me. A few years ago I sold a lot of guns between a loss of a job and I went overboard on the #of calibers I owned. I consolidated to a 5 caliber system (22lr, 9mm, 38spl, .308, 12gauge) this has been working...

    i'm trying to find a solution to my shooting woe's. these last few years have been rough financially and the gun safe took the biggest hit. now things are starting to stabilize and rather than just buying something to see if I like it I need to be a little more methodical. I got into a caliber...

    208gr a-max question.

    was about to start load development on my 16" .308 this weekend but been reading about the 208gr A-max R17 combo and it really is shifting my focus. I was planning on a 155gr A-max as my "long range" load untill I ran the numbers on the 208. it looks like if I can push it at least 2400 it will...

    newb confused about moa to mil. overthinking it?

    hello guys I found a range that I plan on going to next week that has a steel target set at 800yds and i'm trying to figure out my hold and either the math is to simple that i'm overthinking it or i'm way off. here it goes. my range card shows 222" of drop at 800yds or 26.5MOA 100m zero. now do...

    .223 long throat vs .223AI ?

    been doing some reading for my future build and now having second thoughts about caliber choice. I was pretty dead set on .223ai but now wondering if just a long throated .223 would suit my needs and not require fire forming cases, new dies, ect.. here's what I do know. I'm gonna run a 1:8...

    help with caliber choice for a future build.

    With how the economy is going and based off what I have laying around I've come to the idea of making a cheap practice rifle/ future deer rifle for my son's. I want to build a .223 based wildcat in 6, 6.5, or 7mm. I have at least 500 once fired commercial win cases as well as thousands of LC...

    anyone use faster powders for 223/5.56 pistol/sbr?

    I'm in the process of building a 7.5" ar pistol (barrel on back order) and this will be for a plinking/trunk gun. I'm not to worried about plinking ammo but I would like to load up a defense load to maximize the lack of barrel length. I've been playing around with quickload and I've found that...
