    Reloading Equipment WTS: RCBS Chargemaster 1500 ($215 shipped)

    Up for sale is an RCBS Chargemaster 1500. Full disclosure, this has a 2007 date of manufacture so it does not have the ability to do auto-dispense or silence the beep. These two functions are hard-wired into the motherboard and cannot be changed via a firmware update (which isn't possible...

    AR-15 - 20" Ballistic Advantage Barrel: 77SMK and CFE223

    I've got a bit of CFE223 because that's what I can find. I realize that the go to powder for the above setup is IMB 8028XBR, but that's about as none existent as other popular powders. I've read so many threads, but very few actually call out the use of CFE223. I know it's been out a while...

    I have several powders where the powder has been purchased over time and are of course will be different lots. Is mixing the powders so any variance between the different lots is eliminated an option? Specifically would like to do this for H335 and possibly HP-38.

    Questions about actions and the 223 cartridge

    I have a series of questions, that I am struggling to find answers to. Some may open up a can of worms and I apologize in advance. How many rounds is an action good for? Do certain brands have a longer "life"? Would repeaters (due to the mag cutout) have a lower life due to the stresses of...
