Looking good !

Those are the same targets I like to use ! Looking good !

Thank you guys for your replies and the pics, I appreciate it !!!! This definitely helps and it's inspiring!

Knowing every rifle is like a fingerprint , I would like to know who has followed Nosler's data down to their tested COAL and had good results from a factory rifle ? Just curious to know what were some of your first experiences and results of your first time out ? I'm about to get started...

Thanks , I'll have to give these a try !

Thank you for some insight on the ammonia . I think I'll just stay away from brasso.

Thanks guys, I didn't know if the ammonia would be bad for the ammo components. I bought some from the Walmart , it's a white paste in a squeeze bottle. I tried it on some old cases , not too bad, it put the shine to 'em. But it does have ammonia and it's strong !!!!

Has anyone used brasso for cleaning up Nosler seconds? It seems here lately the sportsman's warehouse is selling seconds at premium prices, I mentioned it to them. I bought another 50 ea. of Nosler 3006 brass , the first lot I bought looks great , but this new lot is tarnished . Lot to lot is...

I bought the Lee micro touch 1500 several weeks ago since I posted about my Frankford. I tested the two and show equal weight , grain for grain.

Thanks again ET !

I found the reason why to match the FL die to once fired brass. Bottle neck brass will expand to the chamber shoulder and then spring back a little. I believe this is why my once fired case still chambers in my rifle but its now closer to the chamber shoulder and matching this will keep it...

Can you tell me why to resize to a fired case measurement . This might answer a question I have . If not I will ask. Thank you for the help !

When you say FL sizing to exact fired headspace, are saying set the die to what a fired case measures ?( Datum to rim) . With the o ring , are you saying to lightly snug lock ring down in place and hold it , while you bring the die up or down ?

I took this doe around 80 yards with the scirocco 150gr 3006 bonded this last season. My shots where I hunt are mainly taken near dark , so I need a good blood trail. Her hind quarters took a seat after that shot.

Thanks ET, very nice red stag ! Very nice !!!!

Thank you for the tip !

Thanks for the link . Can you resize the same piece of brass over and over again until the correct shoulder bump is achieved and then actually reload that same piece of brass ?

Thanks

Thanks for sharing this. I haven't thoroughly understood heads pace yet . When the chamber shoulder and the case shoulder touch in a bolt rifle and the bolt closes on it , is that good or bad ? I have read so many things it gets confusing .

I have a box of fifty , ( Nosler ) I'll be starting out on those ! I have some case mouths to straighten up though!
