Re: Ground squirrel caliber thoughts, 308 bolt/ AI mag +1 for the 22BR. Mine is on its second barrel, on a 700 Rem. action.

Scratches on Brass

Bench Source or Giraud Annealer?
Re: Bench Source or Giraud Annealer? Interesting. The Giraud gets my vote, just looking at their literature. Only thing that caught my eye was the time it listed for 223 cases...6 1/2 sec. I have a Ken light machine, which works perfectly, and does a case every 3 seconds. I do have to sit...- twinky
