Another Hornady Superformance Story
Well I have fallen victim to the FTF_FTE snafu of the .308 178gn HPBT Hornady Superformance.... It was so bad I could not get the bolt carrier back or pound out the shell.

Casehead seperation
I was doing my final work up on the ASW 338 with 300gr Lapua Scenars, using H1000 and Vhitavouri N570.

Gunsmithing Is there danger in a faster twist?
I have used the hide to learn many things about rifles, projectiles, accurate and consistent reloading and especially the myriad opinions on the best ELR weapon. So, after many months of reading I am about to jump into my first custom build and it will be large bore. I've set my ambitions on the...- navy1942
