This is for a 243 win with H4350 and 95gr Berger VLD hunting. Shot at 100. I'm thinking 42.3 is where I need to be since 42, 42.3 and 42.6 are close on the center of the impacts. Could 43.2 be one to look at as well. What do you think

Please decider this for me. I've read the OCW method and after I shot this I'm confused. This is 243 105gr with H1000. 46gr to 47.5 in .3gr increments. Any thoughts are great

I have been loading for quite some time now for rifles and handgun. My question is: Are the RCBS Precision Mic and the Hornady LNL Comparator worth the money spent. I understand the RCBS is caliber specific but it looks better constructed. In my past reloading I would set up my die per...

I recently pruchased a Rem 700 Varmint 1/12 twist 26" in 223. I thought it would shoot 60gr Nosler Ballistic tip Varmint but I was wrong. Went to the range with 5rds of each from 26.4gr to 27.2gr of Varget and got zero good groups. This thing was throwing bullets every where. Looking for help...

I will be getting a 700 barreled action in 223AI 1/8 twist 24" tube. I am trying to figure out what bullet to use. I am between 75gr A max and 80gr A max. I will be using Alliant AR-Comp as my powder bc that is what I have right now. What would be the benefits of either of them. I want to shoot...

I am looking to purchase a suppressor and I am looking for opinions. I have looked at most popular brands but just like most things in the shooting industry there are way too many to pick from. I am mostly considering Liberty Freedom and the Gem Tech HVT. I am wanting a direct thread on bc I...

I trim with a Lyman power trimmer 120V and I am looking for an easier way to chamfer/debur after trimming. Should I stick with the hand tools or get something powered? Also, do they make an adapter to run a chamfer/debur tool off of the lyman trimmer? It has the threaded end on it to clean the...
