    Re: Recommendations for Leupold VX-R Patrol mount? Thanks for the input guys. I guess I will chck out the Burris since it is 50% of the cost of the bobro and ADM. Definitely worried about the buy once cry once rule though, hope I am not throwing away $100. Thanks, madd0c

    Rifle Scopes Recommendations for Leupold VX-R Patrol mount?

    Looking at getting a VX-R patrol to try out on an AR for a possible 3 gun platform. Was interested to hear what mounts are being used. Have a few Larue mounts, but don't think I want to spend 50% of the scope price on a mount unless there weren't other good options. Trying to keep it light...

    .300 Win Mag Sticking Brass issue

    Re: .300 Win Mag Sticking Brass issue I would be willing to bet that imperial sizing wax applied correctly will solve your problem. Only times I have stuck a case were using spray or just being stupid and not lubing before sizing the case. madd0c

    Redding Competition Seating Dies (Adjustments)

    Re: Redding Competition Seating Dies (Adjustments) How much variation? It is not uncommon even with Bergers to have +-.002 variance in OAL. The ogive should be more consitent, but will still have slight variation. The question about compressed loads is also important, and you aren't camming...

    working up my first subsonics

    Re: working up my first subsonics Were the holes oblong at 100 or were they oblong at 3 feet? If the holes are round at 3 I shoot them with the supressor. It is very easy for subs to become unstable in the remaining 297 feet. I had very poor results with a 1-11.25 twist barrel, so I got a...

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

    Re: Stainless Steel Media Testimonials Yep, I am running anywhere from 100-150 cases (308) at a time and it does just fine. Spectacularly actually. Will have to try the lemishine bath. Oh, and I also use compressed air when I am in a hurry. My "I need to load NOW" routine is pull the...

    Re: Eberlestock gear Eberlestock gear is top notch. Have several of their bags. Two G4s and a drag bag. I don't crawl through miles of swamp to shoot or drag them behind my truck, but they are very well built and very well thought out designs. I will put in a plug for Ceylon at Delta...

    thirdgeneration vs midway

    Re: thirdgeneration vs midway I agree that Midway's shipping prices are kinda steep, but they DO ship out in less than 24 hours most of the time. The other thing about Midway is that they have donated a huge amount to not only the NRA over the years, but are also a huge suporter of many...

    Reloading bench in Garage

    Re: Reloading bench in Garage Garge for 4+ years, VCI chips in the die boxes (those little cardboard chips that alot of people throw away when you open the box- they are actually a rust preventer - replace every year), and keeping things oiled have worked so far. I agree with everything...

    Berger 338 300 grain match tactical hybrid

    Re: Berger 338 300 grain match tactical hybrid From reading about the bullet, I thought these were designed by Brian Litz to be seated to mag length and less sensitive to jump. That would seem to go along with the .01 findings above. I haven't tried the Bergers since the previous hybrid...

    Reloading for use with a Suppressor?

    Re: Reloading for use with a Suppressor? Shouldn't have to adjust your loads at all. If the supressor causes POI shift it should be consistent and then you readjust your scope. Also, before doing anything, shoot YOUR supressor. I have 2 from the same manufacturer in the same caliber (heck...
