I have a very early Steyr Grand Rapids, Minn. import, pre Gun South SSG-P1, green stock, Khales ZF-69 6X scope in Q.D. rings. single trigger. Mine has been expertly tuned by Derrick Martin, Accuracy Speaks in Mesa Az. and it is utterly dependable, winter or summer. Had him install a stud on...

Might as well use a Lee collet die, at least it has a mandrel .

I only use my Dillon 550B to load rifle that are first fl sized, prepped, trimmed to length or new cases. Using a Dillon to fl size rifle cartridges flexes the cartridge plate in both directions that results in COAL variations on seater in my humble opinion.

Real deal US 1911-A1, carried one like it for 13 months, keeper of the flame.

The Gracey is less expensive, can preform a variety of tasks, and if you buy a Giraud trimmer blade and replace the the Gracey 2 piece one very easy to set up and each blade provides 3 cutting surfaces before replacement. Typically you should never buy another. I have 2 Graceys one in .223 and...

They delivered my 30.06 trimmer a few weeks ago, I am impressed, and I have 2 Graceys.

I use binoculars to spot game, and a spotting scope to decide if it's worth shooting.

I have made the Camp Perry pilgrimage many times and when I lived in Az. I would stop @ Sierra on the way back and frequently bought 5 gallon buckets of blems/2nds that were used by the junior shooters to gain experience . These bullets were never as consistent as the 1st Tier and we knew...

Yes I believe your right. Cabelas has sale on Rem 700 @ $500 w/rebate

A Gracey will do it toot suite and you get a trimmer to boot.

I believe the 30.06 would be long action

I saw a ad the other day that implied Remington was now selling receivers only. Can one buy a Winchester receiver by it's self ? I have always wanted a controlled round 30.06 Winchester/ M40A1 type rifle, without buying a new rifle and throwing most of it in a parts bin.

Angled, standing, setting or prone a scope is for watching mirage and determining wind speed and direction. Then making a shot before conditions change, you can't do that with a straight as you have to change position to engage.

Lots of good input here, every shooter needs to critique his load process, they vary by type of action, s/a or bolt, mag length limit on OAL, you can just make every round like a bench rest cartridge, but even that won't work in everything. You have to balance the the time and money with the...

These is the feedback I was looking for. I tumble, deprime on rockchucker, double case resize on another press, uniform pockets, trim on Giraud that also chamfers inside and slight bevel outside, been priming w/ bench mount RCBS tool, then in load block to Harrels for powder, then to a Redding 7...

I would get a Hornady Lock & Load press or equivalent from Lee as you can set up one time for each die, pop in and out for next stage or calibre saves a lot of headache when starting off.

Reddings are the same way, blackfoot spot on correct.

Ruger Bisley 44 mag. Built like a tank, superbly accurate, not as heavy as a Redhawk. Unless you can find a early production, cut the 7.5" down to 5.5" - 6"

Correct, when it no holds tension, and I double size all of my LC brass the first time I reload them. Size as normal and let it set in die for a 5 count, spin case 180 degrees and size again, I also use scientific laboratory foam Q tips with a trace of Sinclair case lube on inside of case necks...

To quantify my response if you fire those same cases in the same bolt gun, without undue pressures they should last a long time. You should only need to neck size until the brass becomes work hardened, than try full length resizing again. All the while this is going on you will check for length...
