    Anyone have load recipe for fire forming 264 Win Mag with faster powder?

    i'm guessing it's a post64? i have both and do shoot sierra 140sbt's (#1730) since '84 and been using the same brass (winchester super-x) since the late 70's to early 80's. neither firearm has had any misfires fl sizing using redding dies. and all above are correct about belted brass...

    Cylinder Honing

    are you trying to polish back to near factory shape (look wise, not dimensions) for easier extractions/ejections? flex honing probably wouldn't be good unless it's a high grit like 2000 for knives. ball (dingleberry) would create too much pressure i'd think, but rigid (stone type like for...

    22creed or 22-250rem

    on an average the 22-250 hold about 5.5-6.5gr less powder on case capacity which could give the 22-250 extra barrel life (might not be as important to some being a consumable)? that an the 22-250 could yield 50-60fps in velocities which isn't that bad and could be made up with an extra 2". i...
