    Suppressors Best can with the least amount of blowback

    Not sure you can really control it with a can effectively, only thing that has worked for me is an adjustable gas block.

    I should have used the case gauge

    Thanks for the kind words, the only thing I'm a little concerned with is the slight deformation of the bullets due to the crimp. They're not bad, but noticeable, ill definitely take it easy the first 25 or so rounds to make sure it's still shooting straight before putting the can on it.

    Nope! I will not!

    I should have used the case gauge

    Well, at least 10 man hours later I have successfully pulled all bullets, sized and reloaded at least 850 rounds. Damn that was a lot of work! Case gauge is key!

    Suppressors Shot My Tab Gear Suppressor Cover

    Sas3 may be tough with qd retention. I have the Velcro strip for my tab gear on my spec war, I can get it tighter I feel

    .936" Adjustable Gas Blocks

    Slr sentry 9, I sold all of my syrac gas blocks and switched. They're much better and very easy to clean if the get gummed up

    I should have used the case gauge

    Hmmm, is it safe to run a body die on a loaded round?

    I should have used the case gauge

    Yeah I think that's exactly what I'll do, I imagine it's not crazy to resize a primed case, worst case one blows, but that may be a stretch

    I should have used the case gauge

    Actually that's how I figured out I had a problem... thought my gun was acting up when some wouldn't chamber but i checked and most of them failed the case gauge, while the go/no go gauges worked as advertised in the chamber Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I should have used the case gauge

    Well, I made a pretty big error loading some 223 on my Dillon 650. Cases were new and good to go. I primed, powdered and loaded about 900 but screwed up one key step. I had the Lee factory crimp die set too tight and ended up compressing the case so that it bulges at the shoulder... did this to...

    Digital scale recommendation

    My gem pro works great if you let it warm up for 30 min or so beforehand. I will double check it with a beam scale everytime and put it back on the gem pro a few times when I'm really tying to gnats ass it... Works for me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    I am actually looking to stretch it out to a mile, mostly to 1000 though. I got a hold of some 215m primers so we'll see how they work

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    Thanks for the help guys, I'll give the rapid fire a shot and see how the winchesters hold out, will probably get some 210s next to try them out. This site rocks

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    Interesting, are magnum primers just hotter to allegedly get a more consistent burn? We're your problems with the load because of the primer or because it was too hot? Thanks for the help

    http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-reloading/257024-primer-rupture-help.html I guess this answers my question, for anyone else's SA when this comes up again in a couple weeks. I normally search, just in this case I have no idea what a primer crater really looks like so I just...

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    ah, i figured that flattened just meant that the primer was less "dome-like" the flat section on the fired primer is clearly larger than the unfired, but not much i guess. I'm no rocket scientist but i would think that this is because the primer itself is unseating out the of pocket a tad and...

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    I actually wanted some Federal Gold Metal Magnum Match Primers but they are more impossible to find than H1000.

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    It's a Phoenix Custom Rifles built on a Surgeon 1086 action. There are no ejector marks and no hard lift. I actually ladder tested all the way up to 77.5gn and nothing seemed any different, I just chose 77.0 because it was in the middle of an accuracy node. Other than the way it looks though...

    300WM Cratered Primers, H1000, 208AMAX

    Hey guys I was wondering if you could all help me figure something out. I'm not really sure what constitutes a cratered primer but I think I've got them, including a little primer flattening. It's a bit surprising to me because I don't think I'm running that hot of a load book wise. According to...
