    Alternative for varget for 308 / 223

    I'm really wanting to try some IMR 4320. Right next to Varget on the burn rate chart, and readily available. I know it won't be as temp stable, but I bet it's a good substitute.

    F T/R Competition Having too much fun with scales and dew points

    I shot the match also, same as Denys, sweating more earlier in the day than later. Shirt was soaked after match one, and dry when I got in the car to go home.

    ever do it @ the range

    Re: ever do it @ the range As noted, yes, that is a PVM-21 Chrono. LOL on the tool box. I actually bought it new and it stays in my reloading room inside the house, so no musty smell, at least so far..

    Help Please - Do I need a small base sizing die?

    Re: Help Please - Do I need a small base sizing die? Exactly how far were/are you bumping the shoulder? You are measuring this, correct? The finger swipe of imperial works perfectly, no need for any more lube on the cases.

    Advantage of case concetricity? NONE

    Re: Advantage of case concetricity? NONE Maybe for you, for me it matters. FWIW, my bolt guns don't have ejectors either. Kelblys also makes an ejector that does not function off spring pressure as well.
