    Remington vs. Winchester Brass - Feedback Needed

    Guys, I ain't done much reloading, but aim to change that. So my question is, what kind of experiences are folks having with Remington vs. Winchester brass? I'm referring to; case prep requirements, primer hole concentricity, as well as primer pocket life, case longevity in general, etc...

    Opinions on/Experiences with Prvi Partizan Brass (& ammo too)

    I'm hoping this question ain't a repeat, but... Has anyone reloaded Prvi Partizan Brass, and if so, how's the quality of it as well as it's life span. As in how many reloads did you get out of it before you had to scrap it? I'm thinking magnum calibers more than say .308, but any input would...

    Moving via Container/CONEX Box feedback wanted

    Gents, I may be doing a move, & was wondering if anyone has done so with a company which drops off a CONEX box at your door, & lets you pack it at your liesure. And then picks it up, & delivers it to where you specify on a given date. I'd surely appreciate as much info & feedback as possible in...

    7mm 9 1/4 twist with 175gr & 180gr SMKs Question

    Gents, I'm on a bit of an info hunt. What I'm wondering is, will 175gr & 180gr SMKs properly stabilize when fired out of a 9 1/4 twist barrel in magnum calibers. Meaning 7mm RM, 7mm WSM etc. Sierra's website strongly suggests a faster twist. But I know that plenty of guys have fired bullets...

    Clearing Bore Obstructions

    If you get a bullet lodged in your bore, has anyone tried clearing it by repeatedly dropping a section of brass (or similar) rod down the barrel onto the slug? I'm thinking from the muzzle end on this idea/techinque. But am definitely open to suggestions & education. Then, say instead you have...

    Savage Barrel Changes in The Field /On the Hunt

    Gent's, I'm more than a little curious about Savage Rifles of late. Especially due to how much their quick barrel change option is oft touted. What I'm wondering is if anyone's swapped a barrel in the field, with the most basic of tools. Say you were to toss the following into your pack...

    Can't access my profile

    Gent's, I hope that this is the right place for this. If not, I'd kindly appreciate a mod moving it to where it belongs best. On to the problem. It seems, for some bizarre reason, that I can't access my own profile to view it. I've tried to do so in as many ways as I can think up, & still no...

    Tumbling tarnished ammo

    Hope this hasn't been asked & answered. But are there any real negatives to tumbling tarnished/oxidized ammo? Either just some hunting ammo which has been on the shelf for a while, or bulk surplus fodder of various makes. I'm not referring to rounds which have serious corrosion issues, they...
