Thank you , glad to be here and seems like you guys are a very informative and accepting bunch. I like the fact that everyone helps each other and shares their findings. It’s helps all of us get better at this. This is the first forum I’ve ever joined , because I learned something each time I...

Yah for sure, i always google the business and use the “if it’s too good to be true method” Typically from what I’ve seen the scammer sites don’t have a credit card checkout. I only zell or Venmo people I personally know.

Sweet! Thank you Paul

I apologize for some of the spelling! My auto correct doesn’t like me very much this morning!

Got an update , the powder showed up Wednesday. I’m out in the back yard shooting my ladder on the n568 right now. This is the first charge I feel I’m coming up to pressure on bolt lift was easy, no ejector mark but primer has a touch of flattening and where the firing pin hit it’s starting to...

I wasn’t meaning a specific book, just I remember being in your spot and I believe the one thing that got me to where I am now was patiently reading everything I could about the products I was using. The little 3 pager instructions in your dies, the reloading manual you have ect… you’ve got you...

Welcome, there’s quite the learning curve with this stuff. Read a lot! Write everything down (I learned that the hard way ) when you work on a specific caliber or load for a gun. One of the biggest mistakes I made early on was going to the range or the mountain with 5 different loads for 3...

Yesterday same thing on brownells.. had 8 pounder of 4350 and 8 pounder of varget in my cart. Tried 15 times to check out atleast. The last time I tried it spit the varget out of my cart and left the 4350 so I bought it. Kinda sucks waiting for 6-7 months for a powder to pop up like varget (...

You hit the Nail on the head! I do own a 28 nosler and shoot the 195s. But I started building that rifle in 2015. I’d like to think I decided on that before it became a fad Current usage canyon to canyon at the Oregon coast (I’ve got a few spots that black tail bucks walk out into just...

I’ve ordered from reloading unlimited, got an 8 pounder of RS hunter for my 300short mag It loves that powder. If I recall it $215 to the front door. So 25/26$ a pound delivered. I had written an email to hodgdon a few weeks ago and they wrote me back ( pretty surprised cause my email was...

Definitely hear you on that, $27 for a pound of RS magnum is pretty well stabilized to me tho. Delivered to the front door was $30. (Letting us buy 5 pounds at a time ). It’s for sure the best priced “magnum” powder I’ve seen as of late. Brownells is now up to $49 a pound for their extreme...

Thank you for the link, I didn’t even know this one existed! Rem/Peters brass can keep going underrated in my book. People don’t know what they’re missing. It’s my favorite brass by far. 300 ultra it’s the only brass I’ll use. It has outlasted and outshot every other brand including Norma...

I did see some 307 hornady the other day at sportsman’s now I think about it. Ya very true I also try as much as possible to support my local gunsmith (he sells all the things also) I definitely try to stay away from or support the online gouging machine that has revealed itself as of late...

Thank you, this helps quite a bit. I didn’t even have a clue where to start with it. Plus the 2nd QL you sent with all the powders is pretty close at their near maximum to what I’ve got in my notebook of where I hit pressure with retumbo h1000 and it’s spot on almost to my re33 load. It does...

I’ve always loved imr 4064, it’s one of the more stable old school imr powders. It’s always shot well and with good speed for me in 308 win That 150 load you have know is spot on , good speed and accuracy. Tough bullet and stable powder. My nephew shoots the 165 bt in his 308 win pump It’s a...
