    Help with case trimming

    Re: Help with case trimming I'm with Tripwire, find your shortest case and as long as it is between the trim-to and the max length, which it is since they have only been shot three times, set your trimmer to that case and have at it. There is no other way to get them all the same length. If...

    Question on neck sizing and case trimming

    Re: Question on neck sizing and case trimming If you are going to shoot the cases through the same gun all the time and you do neck size, you may still need a full length die. When you shoot the round, the case gets fire formed to your chamber. After several firings it can/will get tight...

    Dillon Super 1050 disappointment

    Re: Dillon Super 1050 disappointment Everyone has varying degrees of mechanical ability. My guess is that if they had to produce a set of instructions to meet everyones ability/inability it would weigh more than the machine. I have a 650 with most, if not all the options. I took my time...

    New chrony. Unsatisfactory results.

    Re: New chrony. Unsatisfactory results. Deviations in the thickness of the neck wall can greatly effect neck tension and cause different pressures which effect SD. Check this out: http://www.6mmbr.com/casenecktools.html

    Sierra 175gr Match King vs. Hornady 178gr A-Max

    Re: Sierra 175gr Match King vs. Hornady 178gr A-Max I don't think you can go wrong either way but I also shoot the Amax. I use 168's with 45.0 of Varget because I was told to by someone who has a couple of world records. I used to shoot SMK's but was going for some training and the guy...

    My first 50 rounds

    Re: My first 50 rounds Great job, great shooting and a sweet rig! Thats what it is all about. I don't mean to sound like my Dad but the control freak in me wants to tell you to get in the habbit of emptying your powder back into its original container. Sooner or later you will have more...

    Waste of time? Measuring cases, projectile& powdr

    Re: Waste of time? Measuring cases, projectile& powdr I read Glen Zediker's "Handloading For Competition" and tried some of the things that he suggested that would/could make a noticeable difference. I did not see much if any difference. I only have access to shoot 200 yards close by and...

    Re: Snipers Hide Training...how much, again?? Frank, A few questions: 1) If a guy signs up and uses the training for say a year or so and stops and then sometime after that wants to go over it again, would he have to pay for it all over again? 2) I read that there are some pdf's, are...

    Primers stuck on de-capping tin

    Re: Primers stuck on de-capping tin I did notice the concave heads. I do also use Dillon dies on my 650 which is what I will reload them with but I am skeptical after hearing that the primers are hard to seat. New brass is not that expensive to have to put up with a bunch of trouble or...

    Primers stuck on de-capping tin

    Anybody have that happen? Any solutions? I picked up about 800 Speer, nickle plated, .40 S&W brass at the range (factory loads) and have been de-capping them before throwing in the tumbler. The primers get stuck on the pin and when it retracts, it re-seats the primer back into the pocket a...
