    Re: Tornadoes in Oklahoma Our prayers are with those people. I listened to the scanner and it sounds like the debris coming down in el reno was nearly as bad as the tornado.

    Annealing Machine interest and ideas

    Re: Annealing Machine interest and ideas while we are on the subject of annealing 360*. Do you think it is critical to turn the brass while it is in the flame or do you think that two torch heads distribute heat well enough that it doesn't need to turn?

    Fieldcraft WTF? Is camo worth this much?

    Re: WTF? Is camo worth this much? There are some crazy people on there. Now we watch to see if anyone bids. Then we will know who the stupid people are! Olathe....I think I'd be hitting up the Bass Pro if I were you. Of course maybe it would be worth the extra drive to Cabela's.

    Advanced Marksmanship slanted crosshairs (well they appear that way) Obs

    Re: slanted crosshairs (well they appear that way) Obs That's similar to my approach. Only difference is I do it at 50 instead of 100.

    Advanced Marksmanship slanted crosshairs (well they appear that way) Obs

    Re: slanted crosshairs (well they appear that way) Obs The lower "V" sits on your barrel and the upper "V" sits on your scope. You then level the gun with the attached bubble level and check your crosshairs on your scope against something like a plumb bob.

    Neck Thickness (Lapua .308 Brass)

    Re: Neck Thickness (Lapua .308 Brass) I've got to resize before I turn because the turnng tool is .306 and my brass rattles around on the tool. It comes out to exactly .306 after resize and fits the turning tool nicely.

    Velocity SD or Group Size suggestions for new load

    Re: Velocity SD or Group Size suggestions for new Cobra, do you make adjustments in 1/2 turn increments? I just always assumed the brake should be oriented with vents to the side and screwed all the way on. Although if I want to start messing with a brake I'm going to have to pull my barrel...

    Velocity SD or Group Size suggestions for new load

    Re: Velocity SD or Group Size suggestions for new load I did not clean the barrel between charges. Thanks for the read bohem. That puts things into perspective concerning SD. It's possible I'm focused too much on the SD and now need to choose the load by the shot group. The question is...

    Velocity SD or Group Size suggestions for new load

    I've been reloading for years but never to the accuracy that I am looking for now. I've greatly improved my loading process but I am still getting large variances in Velocity even when my groups look good. What SD or ES should I be trying to achieve?
