reload

First time post here. New to precision bolt rifles, and looking forward to gathering wisdom from all of you. I have recently purchased a 26" Christensen Arms MPR, in 6.5 CM. I have a few hundred rounds through it so far, and am enjoying it very much. Without a ton of effort, I have been able...

I've looked for clues all over the internet and in my reloading books, but so far I have come up short in trying to solve a problem I'm having with my 308 loads. I've been working on solving this off and on for a few months with no luck. I have loaded successfully for years in a bunch of...

Hi all I've been lurking for a while and thought I would jump into the fray with pics of the reloading bench I built yesterday. I used Simpson Strong Tie brackets. My requirements were: - workable height for standing or sitting on barstool -- 36" - Super sturdy construction as the bench...

Wow, there are so many different dies for .308 and I am lost. I am going to reload for myself because factory ammo is so expensive and honestly not impressing me with accuracy. Should I get a FL sizing die or just neck sizer? I am planning on loading to a COAL. I have a caliper. Whats a good...

Once I get my rifle built I was wanting someone to help me work a load for my gun. I will pay for brass,bullets,powder exc. I will also pay for labor. I do not have the know how or stuff to do it myself. Would be nice if I was able to come to someones range sometime, work up a couple loads and...

I'm approaching to reload my HS precision HTR in .308 W, I would like to use sierra match bullet 175 gr or similar to shot from 500 to 900 meters.... somethings to give to me ? thanks

My gun (Rem700 VLS 308) has never shot factory loads very well. Today I tried Fed. 168 Gold Metal Match. 75 degrees, slight breeze from 12 o'clock, 850 ft. elevation. I switched scopes so the first 3 shots are getting it dialed in. Shot over sand bags. Shot 1: 2666 fps, on paper Shot 2...

I have come across a lot of Federal and Hornady 30.06 brass. I want to reload all of it for my Garand. I know the powder charge has to be just right or I can start expecting damage to the gas system and associated parts. What is the best recipe for Powder Brand and type, Powder Charge amount...

Hy guys, Any experiences with .338 LM are wery appreciate. Actually I reload with N165 and N560; lapua bras, federal 215 primers, Sierra MK 250 gr I'm looking for the best reload to hit the gong at 1500-2000 m

I have acquired a couple of hand-loads that I cannot find information on. all are .45 auto cal. I need an opinion if these are safe to fire or do I pull the rounds and adjust the charge to be safe in my colt series 80. #1 200 gr lead wad-cutter with 7 grains of 800 x powder #2 155 gr. lead...

A few of my friends were saying it's worthless... the Lake City stuff looks good to me, any issues?

Any one here mess around with scout rifles? I'm in the process of figuring out how to run a Savage scout. I admit that its a bit of a concept toy out side of being a good deer rifle. I can get five (4+1) shots off pretty quick, the butt cuff will handle the first reload, and then what? Im...

Reloading Basix: After helping quite a few folks recently getting set up for reloading I decided to put my thoughts on paper. Here is my spin on how to turn out good quality ammunition for precision/tactical rifle at minimum cost and minimum fuss. The steps I use are ones that make me feel...
