Not sure how I pulled this off, but I broke the pin that goes through the catch that hooks it into the rifle chassis. I got the right size pin, but it seems the original pin was peened into the hole, so I can't get the new pin in. Has anyone else had to deal with this, and what was your...

First time I've reloaded for this rifle. I only loaded 30 to shoot a ladder, and had 7 fail to ignite. I'm loading new lapua brass, rl25(84.5-87.0), 300 smks, and cci 250s. The primers are below flush, although not any more than my other loads have been, from what I can tell at least. It...

Thought I'd find one for sure last weekend at the Mesquite show, but was a bust. Anyone know a place that stocks them in the area?

I've been loading metallic for a few years, but I'm new to shotshell. I've got a mec sizemaster. How do you empty the powder bottle without spilling powder everywhere? Do you just run the charge bar back and forth until it's empty?

Can anyone tell me the akro-mils part number for the larger optional bin? I want to pick up a few, but don't want to pay $6 a pop for them from a Hornady reseller.

Didn't want to hijack the other thread, but it made me think of something. LC 5.56 brass had a thicker web and changed at some point. I noticed when doing a batch of recent headstamp brass (00-08) then switching to some older brass (pre '80), it started to over swage the pockets. Anyone know...

Does anyone know if the RCBS cutter can be used with the Hornady trimmer? I know I read where someone said they were using them together, but I can't remember where I saw it.

I'm using a Hornady comparator and OAL gauge. With the comparator, I'm getting .664 with both bullets. The lapuas are a bit more consistant I've noticed, but the averages seem to be the same.

I'm getting a col of 2.943. This seems a bit long for a 5r, doesn't it? I'm getting that number very consistantly though. Method I'm using; took a fired case, used a lee collet neck sizer to put a little tension on it, insert the bullet and chamber the round. All results have been between...

I just got around to installing my conversion today, got my press apart then realized I was missing the 'spent primer tube tool.' Is it threaded? Is it something I could use a bolt in place of?

I don't have a Taurus pistol myself, but several of my friends do. They all happen to be 9mm. I think one is a 24/7 model, and the others are millennium models. They look to me to have very steep feed ramps. They seem to really hate anything other than FMJRN bullets. Anyone else experience...

I'm tired of this rifle constantly kicking my ass, so I'm thinking about a re-barrel. A 7 pound 375hh sounded like a good idea at first... I suppose it would be a good action to build a 338 lapua on, that's the first thing I thought of at least. Any ideas?

Hi everyone, this is my first post on this board. I went to the range today, second trip with this rifle. I was shooting 175smks, Varget, CCI BR, fed brass. Started at 40.0, tumbled. Moved to 42.0, tumbled. Then 43.0, in LC brass, tumbled. I then tried factory gmm 168gr, and that even...
