Re: Wheeler/Midway Paint I used it on a replacement main spring housing for one of my 1911's several years back. Its seen a lot of use with no problems so far. Perhaps the painter didn't get all the oil off the metal surface.

Re: Stock options for Savage 110 tactical in 308 Try it without bedding it first. Mine shot so well, I left it alone. I'm sure I just got lucky, but who knows, maybe you'll win the lottery too.

Re: Stock options for Savage 110 tactical in 308 I've got a Duramaxx on a Savage .308 that I don't have a single complaint about, but when I built a heavy barrel .30-06, I ordered a woodchuck from Kevin at Stockade. Great guy, great product.

Re: Savage model 110 tactical heavy barrel stock help. Kevin at Stockade will fix you up right. I bought one of his woodchuck models for a Savage I built several years ago and couldn't be happier. Nice guy, too. Stockade Gun Stocks

Re: Why does the Military crimp primers? If the AR situation is that bad, are civilians doing something different when they reload for it?

Re: How much powder For what its worth: This is a public forum, things posted here are admissible in court, and we might not have the friendliest DOJ right now. Its just a suggestion, but if you are in violation of the law, its probably best not to say so.

Re: Sierra matchkings for hunting? As noted above, the military uses what its allowed to use. That does not mean its the best thing out there (think about handgun ammo--if you were shooting at Johnnie Jihad up close with a 9mm, would you rather use hollow points or FMJs?). They make hunting...

Re: .22-250 GTG at 100, not so GTG at 200..... Just an opinion. 200yds seems a little short for hidden flaws in a load to start showing up. Maybe you were having a little trouble with the wind, or maybe just a little off your game. Or maybe you were just really on the ball at 100yds...

Re: Primer Pocket Uniformer Thanks everyone. I like the looks of the K&M.

Any advice on what primer pocket uniforming tool to get? I'm looking for something I can chuck in an electric drill (large rifle only). The Possum Hollow and Lyman tools look promising. Suggestions?

Re: 8lb Varget and IMR 4895 in stock NOW! Mine's on the way. When I ordered, the front page said they were taking up to a couple of weeks to process things.

Re: .308 175 grain handholding A great deal of happiness seems to be found between 43gr and 44gr of Varget (43.5 is magic in mine, and seems to shoot pretty well in most guns). Start with 42gr, work up in 0.5gr increments, five shots each. I tend to do initial test groups at about 50yds...

Re: 2 questions But only if you are using a bolt action. Brass life with semi-automatics is different.

Re: Annealing Brass Thanks. That really is a great idea.

Re: Annealing Brass Kombayotch, I would love to hear some detail on that setup. Specifically, what size parts, and how loose/tight does the case fit in the holder?

Re: .308 Resizing problems +1.

Re: 308 rd hard to extract from chamber..bolt gun I think suasponte is correct, the back end of the shell isn't being properly sized for that chamber. I used to have some LC brass that was particularly stubborn in this area and creating much the same problem (my reason for the semi-auto...

Re: 308 rd hard to extract from chamber..bolt gun Were they originally fired through a semi-automatic rifle?

Re: Looking for stock suggestions for a Savage 10 Stockade makes a great product. I've had two B&C DuraMaxx stocks, and both worked great (others seem to of had less positive results, though).

Re: 308 rd hard to extract from chamber..bolt gun What do the primers look like?
