I called Cabelas today and the primers I ordered in April are finely shipping!!!!!

Re: Using CED M2 Crono I think that I'm going to manufacture something with a wood base that will hold the assembly more solid, then find some cheap, but good quality teliscoping legs, and mount two on each side at 45 or so angles. I think that will give me more stability, and also allow me...

Re: Using CED M2 Crono Thank you everyone, I did not know that there where screws on the bottom of the ends. Again should have read the instructions. Yes I did like the results except for a few things, that I know where my own fault to start with.

Re: Using CED M2 Crono Is there any particular tripod you would recomend? How steady and level did you find it to be on a tripod?

Re: .308 Work Up I got around to getting some shooting with these loads in this weekend, and while I do not have all of the data with me I can give a short synopsis. I started off with firing 5 rounds Hornady factory 150gr SP. They came out with an Avg at about 2550. using a DPMS 308 with a...

Re: Using CED M2 Crono I knew that it had to be out a ways, did not figure that far. I thought about using a camera tripod, but even that seems like it would be flopping in the wind a little if you get my drift. And yes I should have read the dirrections, but my soon to be father in law is...

So I got the CED M2 crono with the IR and got a chance to test it this weekend. For the most part I was happy, but there where a few things that I was not happy about. Now to be honest I did not read all of the instructions so that could have a little to do with it. At first I had it setup on...

Re: Velocity and Barrel Length Thanks 308sako, that was what I was looking for. The reason I asked this question is that I was doing some testing with some step loads I did this weekend, and the numbers I got where well below what I thought that they would be. I was using a DPMS .308 with a...

Is there a huge difference between velocity and barrel length. I'm assuming there is but I just wanted to make sure.

Re: .308 Work Up Well that is a funny story, or not so funny story. I purchased the poweder online, and when I bought it I thought I was purchasing the RL15. Any way when I got it I did not look that close to it, and set it aside. by the time I got around to needing to use it, I realized that...

Re: .308 Work Up My Plan is to use it for hunting mostly. That and this is the first load workup that I'm doing, so just for practice doing load workups. I have found it very hard to find any data for Reloader 17, and the 760 for a 150 grain bullet. Guess I have the wrong suggested poweder...

I'm hopping this weekend to do some testing of some loads that I have worked up. I wanted to get some insight if anyone thought that the loads I worked up might not be good, and that how I plan to test them is proper. This is what I will be testing. .308 with CCI 200 primers. I have 5 loads...

It is getting to be that time of the year here in Minnesota where it get's cold, and sometimes very cold. I have all of my reloading supplies in the garage and it is not a finished garage. Meaning that the portion that does not touch the house, is not insulated. Is it a bad idea to keep my...

Re: My primers came off back order form Cabelas. MMM. I just called them, I also have a backorder for WinLR and WinLP primers 5k each. My order is still on, and expected delivery of mid to end of July. I'm sure that it will get pushed back, however I think that as long as you call them and...

Re: primer shortage solution ?? I would think that you already know that all of us military boys and gals are on a watch list. Like all thinks from the internet you have to take it with a grain of salt. I do know however from my expriance with 10th SFG and 5th SFG (NO I WAS NOT AN 18...

Re: should I crimp or not I never thought about crimping my rounds, and from what I'm reading here I don't need to worry about this. I KNOW LOOKING AT THE FNG. Any way I'm loading .45 ACP, and .308 win. Using an RCBS rockchucker, and the standard 3 and 2 die sets. I'm assuming that there is...

Re: Just ran out of LG pistol primers!!!!!! Cabela's is accepting orders, Ordered mine 3 weeks ago, and they are showing that I should get them some time this week. I have 5K LPP, and 5K LRP on the way. I might take a few and put them on GB.

Re: Just ran out of LG pistol primers!!!!!! It's only gay if you are the one with out the primers.

Re: Reloader 17 and .308 win I don't mind using it, as long as I know that it will work. Again I'm not looking to make match rounds or anything like that. As long as I can hit the broad side of a dear that will be good enough for me...for now.

Re: Reloader 17 and .308 win Compressed loads. This just means that the powder will be sitting in place where the bullet needs to go so when you press it together, it is going to press the powder down into the case correct?
