What bushing should I use for Redding Competition .308 dies? Thanks

I'm just getting into reloading for my SCAR. I have a Redding Comp 3 die set I will use but what bushing size should I get? What components does everyone use? How many times can the brass be reloaded? Thanks

I'm looking at getting a new SBR and suppressor. I heard that the 6.8 has a barrel life in the order of 3K round while the 5.56 has a barrel life around 10K rounds. Can anyone verify this? When you shoot the barrel out of a SBR do you have to go through all the NFA stuff all over again to get a...

I found a nice deal on RWS Brass for 300 Win Mag and I'm thinking of getting 1000 rounds... have to buy in bulk... And I will be selling about 500 for $1.25ea plus shipping. But does anyone know the case capacity of this brass with Retumbo using a 4" drop tube? I will be loading Hornady 225gr...

Right now I'm using 78gr of Retumbo with Nosler Brass a 27" barrel at 2825 FPS with a suppressor. I'm trying to inch out a few more FPS so long as accuracy is not sacrificed. If anyone wants to share load data for the 225 I would appreciate it. I would also like to know the BC everyone is...

What is the best set of dies for compressed loads? I shoot a AI AW in 300 win mag and I'm shooting 225 gr bullets with Nosler brass and 78 gr of Retumbo on a Forester press. I just got some Redding Comp dies but read that this die doesn't work with compressed loads:( Does anyone use this die...

I'm dialing .7 mils for spin drift at 1500 yards. Is this about what everyone else is dialing? That seems a bit much to me but I would like to know what others dial to compensate for spin drift when they are blessed with no winds. I'm shooting 30 cal Hornady 225 gr out of an AI AW at 2820 FPS...

With 300 rounds through it. It all started last week when the 4th shot was nearly hard to extract. I didn't think much of it at the time. This week it happened again and upon close inspection of the brass there is a small scratch that can just catch a fingernail just below the shoulder...

I'm looking at getting the Hornady® Lock-N-Load® Power Case Prep Center but I would like to know how it lends itself to brass to be used in long range handloads. I'm just getting into reloading and fixing to push the button on a Forester Co-ax press and all the fixings:) Any .02 on this...

I want to get started reloading and want to make the most accurate ammo as possible. I see buying all the equipment as an investment and spending a little more upfront would not being an issue as long if it would last longer and could lend itself to making better ammo. By no means am I...

I'm thinking of trying out some RWS brass for my 300 Win Mag. I heard that the cases are very thick and I was wondering what kind of velocities folks are getting with a 225gr bullet. At $1.25 each that's a little on the steep side but if these things can be reloaded more the price wouldn't be...

Dear xxx, Did you hear Rick Santorum defending his anti-Second Amendment record in last night's debate? He proudly stated he supported - and worked to create - anti-gun legislation to avoid something worse coming along. Rick just doesn't seem to get it. If our country is being driven to the...

This is the question. I currently have a gun trust that was established in Oklahoma. I moved to Utah and want to buy more silencers so can I use the same trust or do I need to have a new trust that I would create in Utah? Any help would be appreciated, especially if there is anyone out there...

I'm in the market for a new rangefinder. I don't want to spend +$10K on one but at the same time I do plan on shooting at distances up to a mile. I shoot a 300 WM and I can get a mile out of it... But no more than that. If I was shooting a .416 or something I could justify the extra money for a...

Does anyone here know of a good range near Tooele, Utah? I have been looking online and I seen a couple 500 yard ranges about an hour away from Tooele, but I'm trying to find somewhere close to Tooele where I can shoot out to 1,000 - 1700 yards Thanks in advance.

I know I'm opening up a can of worm here but I'm looking for those who have 1st hand experience. My primary concern is accuracy and everything else is a distant second.

Does anyone have any experience with the 200gr. Nosler Accubond from Double Tap? I will be shooting it in my AW 300 WM at elk at up to 1000 yards if need be. I plugged it into my ballistics FTE and it looks hard to beat but I was wondering if anyone shot it in their AW before I got a case of...

I just downloaded the Ballistic FTE for my iPhone and does anyone know the sight height of an AW with a 45 MOA base? I ordered one in a 300 WM a few weeks ago and I want to get everything dialed in ASAP. I can't wait to go shooting!! Does anyone shoot the Hornady 180 gr interbond in their AWs...

Does anyone know of a range in Oklahoma that goes out to 1,000 yards or so?
