    need help choosing which press to buy

    Re: need help choosing which press to buy XL650 is a pistol press. I do use mine for .223 but nothing "precision". 550 is a good base press, AP is a good base press and RCBS Pro2000 are good base progressives. XL650 is ideally suited for action pistol for mass production practice ammo. 650...

    Re-Sizing on Dillon 650 and inconsistent results

    Re: Re-Sizing on Dillon 650 and inconsistent results This is all that is need and can be bought at most hardware stores. Mylar washer goes under shell plate and copper on top. This what you have when done. Extreme variance when done was no more than .07. Industry allowance is .10...

    MOLY COATING BULLETS @ home??

    Re: MOLY COATING BULLETS @ home?? Every bullet loaded for my .38 super, NRA Action pistol is moly coated using Lyman kit. I can't say moly coating adds accuracy but it sure keeps barrel clean and those 3" groups at 50 yards are pretty damn impressive too using Aimpoint CompC3 for optics.

    Precision ammo on a progressive press.

    Re: Precision ammo on a progressive press. Concentricity certainly plays a role in accuracy. No one will argue single stage will load more accurate ammunition, just how much more and is it worth it depends on distance really.

    Re-Sizing on Dillon 650 and inconsistent results

    Re: Re-Sizing on Dillon 650 and inconsistent results Tool head is half of total variance. I have over a hundred hours in tightening shell plate closer to base. The most popular cure is thrust washer. Problem is washer raises ejector wire so now you've traded one problem for another. My...

    300 Win Mag Bullet Choice

    Re: 300 Win Mag Bullet Choice I'm liken 208 A-Max like just about everyone else. Sierra suggests their 190 hpbt with listed accuracy load. I have my doubts about 190 performance in 300 Win Mag compared to 208 A-Max. Will see.

    Re: Ed Brown at Shot Show? Ed Brown acting like the ass he can be is nothing new. I've personally stood at "the window" at Ed Brown's shop and heard Ed speaking with someone in his office while paying for $600.00 in parts. I walked in with zero expectations and left without dissapointment...

    Here in the Sho-Me State of Missouri that's just what Sho-Me means. Put up or Shut up. So the question has been lately. Yea, it's pretty. Pretty is nice and all but can it shoot ? Testing at 15 yards like some other popular shops do was simply out of the question When Jason sent me this...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Just another 1911 picture.

    Re: Just another 1911 picture. Doug Turnbull does Jason's color case hardening. Only barrel Jason uses is Nowlin. Also his guns are sold with only Tripp Cobra magazines. The best of everything is used in these guns including C&S ignition components.
