I was thinking of going the Anneal-riteII method of annealing, and was wondering if tumbling with corn cob or walnut will remove the Tempilaq residue from inside the case neck. Thanks!

For those of you looking: Precision Reloading: Hodgdon H4350 Smokeless Powder (8 lb.)

Can anybody help me with adding this powder to the database for some of my cast Boolit figures? Thanks-

Any suggestions would be appreciated.... I'm looking to put a cheaper illuminated scope ($350 max) on my 10-22 for backyard Coyote sniping. (22LR and head shots are a must, as I have to keep the noise down, and supressors aren't legal here.) Shooting would be out to 80 yards. I realize the...

I just bought Quickdesign, and WOW it seems complicated! Is there a simple way to navigate through standard cartridges without reading 70+ pages? Maybe I bit off more than I can chew here......

I'm trying to work up a few good loads for my LR rifles, and generally use 5 shot groups for accuracy checks. How many shots should I shoot minimum to check the ES of a load's velocity? I assume more than 5 shots. From what I've been reading, 20fps ES or under is what I'm trying for...

I've read waaaay too much good stuff about this program, and since I love handloading and tinkering with loads, I figure I'll use it a lot and enjoy it. Question: Is there any group buys or "sales" going on now? If not, is there only one place to buy it from? Any tips on buying the program...

Does anyone know if the Ultra head on their seating dies can be made to work with their Benchrest style seaters? I have a few Ultra seaters, and wanted to upgrade my 222 regular BR seater die. Thanks-

I'm thinking of going in a different direction with my bolt and M1A rifles. Getting away from the 175s and going with the 155 Sierras and Bergers for less recoil and flatter trajectory at 600yds. Are these bullets generally more finicky or harder to make shoot well? Any tips or pointers you...

I've got an 8lb. jug of 2000MR and need to load up 500 rounds of 308/168SMK loads for my Nephew's AR10. Has anybody used this in their AR10? If so, what weight charge and did it shoot well? I'm looking for a moderate/safe load that functions well and is fairly accurate. Thanks guys! -

I've been hearing nothing but good about their powders for years, so I finally bought 8lbs. of N140 for my 308 in bolt and M1A. I notice it doesn't produce top end velocities, so it must be clean and accurate? What is the big appeal? I found it was more expensive, but it was available!

After messing with loads in my 222 Rem, I noticed it gives best accuracy with a Horn 50V-Max jammed into the rifling. WAY into the rifling! (about .050"). Does anyone else jam this much into the lands, or is this somehow a bad idea? Thanks-

Does anybody make a sizing die that has a repeatable micrometer head for adjusting shoulder set-back?

I was about to pull the trigger on a Thumbler, a d now I see they have this heavy-duty "deluxe" model out. Is it truly better? Any reviews? Thanks- Stainless Tumbling Media | Thumler's Tumbler High Speed Model B

Can a once fired piece of brass from an AR be considered a good depiction of what the chamber's dimension's look like? I'm used to working with a M1A, where you need to shut off the gas system to reliably trust your brass's measurements. I have been using a headspace gauge to set my sizing up...

I just bought a box to try in my 5R and M1A, and was wondering if these bullets will perform at 1000 yds as well or better than a 175SMK. I'm planning on pushing them to 2600 in my M1A and about 2700 in my 5R. I never shot at 1000, (600 max so far), but I would like to work up a load that will...

I'm looking to rebarrel and restock an old Win pre-64 M70 in 30-06. I'm looking to either bed the stock or fit a new stock,and rebarrel to 6.5-06. Could you guys recommend any good smiths to do the work? Thanks-

I've been shooting my Rem 5R in 308 (175SMK and 185Hy bullets) at long range for some time, and now I would like to put together a lighter recoiling rifle,(comfortable all day shooting) that has better ballistics than my 308. It will be primarily used on target/steel and occasionally Coyotes...

I have a fairly stock Rem 5R milspec in 308 that I'm trying to squeeze the last bit of accuracy from. I see on a few other threads people bedding recoil lugs or whathaveyou on their aluminum bedded stocks for better preformance. Is this worthwhile? Does anyone have REAL numbers (before and...
