    Measuring Bullet Bearing Surface Problems

    So, I just got a supply of Berger 308 diameter 215gr. Hybrids that I wanted to separate by bearing surface length to do some ELR with my 300WM. Some time back, I purchased the Sinclair 30 cal stainless steel inserts and holders to attach to a digital caliper as suggested in the ELR reloading...

    Solvent to remove Imperial Sizing Die Wax

    I'm sizing my cases with Imperial Sizing Die wax and then running them through the Giraud to trim and chamfer. I'm wanting to tumble them in SS media with some type of solvent to remove the sizing die wax. The Dawn liquid soap and Lemishine isn't removing the wax. I know I could used dry...

    Unexpected Surprise with Stainless Steel Pins tumbling media

    I've been using a depriming die to remove fired primers before I tumble clean my cases for reloading, so that the media can clean the primer pockets. I have the older size media that just happens to stick in the flash holes every now and then, and up till now I have observed it in pairs or...

    Not happy with the additional intrusive advertising

    I know that advertising pays for the site, and there is an ass load of advertising on the site. I actually like the ads on the top and sides, as I get to see new things and find new vendors. So a couple of days ago, we were notified that we had 100,000 registered members. Our reward was to...

    Reloading for better accuracy with a suppressor

    So my paperwork finally came through on Monday for a Gemtech 308 Quicksand suppressor. This model attaches by inserting the muzzle brake and giving the suppressor a 1/4 turn to lock it behind two large lugs on the muzzle brake. I took it out to shoot on Tuesday and had mixed results. Put it...

    Strap-on cheekpieces, which ones are best for use on nonadjustable stocks

    There are a number of add-on cheekpieces out there on the market for use on conventional stocks. Some have pouches or ammo storage. What brands do you recommend and why? I don't much care about pouches or ammo carrying. I'm more concerned about being able to adjust the height to get my eye...

    Reloading for AR-10 advice needed

    I just picked up a great DPMS SASS heavy barrel 308, 18 inch 1/10 twist. I'm looking for suggestions regarding reloading for it. I have some commercial Winchester virgin brass, and some of the Lake City pulled primed brass. I also have a couple of M1A's so I'm familiar with reloading for...

    Case neck shaving (turning) and the Gracie neck shaver

    I have a Giraud case trimmer, and love it. I'm wanting to do some extended long range shooting and I'm wondering about neck shaving or neck turning to uniform the case neck thickness. I haven't seen much about it here on the Hide. I want consistency in my ammo to eliminate any variables, so I...

    Running a suppressor on a DPMS SASS with or without gas regulation

    I have a good friend that is selling a DPMS SASS (AR-10 clone) heavy barrel 308. I'm considering buying it, but I will want to run a Surefire or Gemtec suppressor on it. I know that the LaRue tactical AR-10 has a gas adjustment valve on the gas block, but I can't find any such system with the...

    Wondering about dies to load 300 WM for a bolt gun

    I just ordered a Remington 700 SS 5R Milspec, and plan to reload for it. I'm wanting to use a bushing die to minimize neck working, but I'm wondering which brand to use. I have a Redding S die FL for 308 in an M1A, but I won't need to resize so much for the bolt gun. I see Redding has a...
