    Using CED M2 Crono

    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...

    I have been told that you have to be careful getting oil on the neck of a round that you are resizing, that this could cause the die to deform the neck. But I have also seen here where others have suggested oilling the whole round before resizing? I know that using a spray would be much faster...

    Hard to find recipe

    I'm new to reloading, but I have a good understanding what is involved and how to do it. I found a good deal on .308 bullets 147 grain FMJ.
