    Casing very hard to press into die?

    +1 on the Imperial. Be real careful about cleaning EVERYTHING when you change between lubes. If you want to see a case get REALLY stuck then have some RCBS spray lube in your die and use Hornady spray lube on the case. Rubbing alcohol works good for cleaning.

    Price Gouging

    Ok, I get it. I've just seen a lot of posts in various threads excoriating anyone who would dare to buy more than 2 pounds or so of powder as being "hoarders." And here I am praying that PV will ship my 15 pounds of N570 so that maybe, if I go back to the .308 for a match or two, I'll have...

    Price Gouging

    That's a pretty strong statement, care to elaborate? What would you say the difference is between a "hoarder" and a "prepper?" Should we take that to mean you will be joining the mob to kill some family for their last half-case of canned veggies should things go south? Because that's what it...

    Suppressors 338 can?

    That's something I never thought about. What do you mean you "shot through several?" I thought they basically lasted forever. Looking hard at a TBAC can for my 338LM and now I'm wondering how many rounds it'll be good for. Thanks for any info.

    Fieldcraft List of common object sizes for mil dot ranging?

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but does anyone know if there is some kind of list or table available with sizes of lots of different common objects? Trying to work on my mil dot ranging, not having much luck with a web search and too lazy to run around sticking a tape measure...
