depending on case capacity and temp using in you can/could use non-magnum (less than 65grs) as those are almost as bad to obtain in any flavor. i've seen large mag primers lately from 12-35 cents per with a 200 limit (except for the high dollar 1's). i saw 35's for sale @...
i have quick design and ql. in ql there's something labeled "cross-sectional bore area"? not fully understanding what it is as same caliber has different cross section areas. building in qd i would also need to fill in something in ql after importing qd info. has anyone used this?
I started 40 years ago (18yo at the time) w/ a dillion 550. .....time went by and bought a 2nd 550 about 6 years ago ad to have 1 of setup for small and large primers. Both have been great. The coax looks like a good press and hope it'll last you for decades!
There was afire in the Texas Panhandle that caused me to lose farm equipment and farm land including center pivot damage back in March. Hopefully it will get extinguished soon!
most likely used nato ammo as it's cheap. nato ammo has a 4moa or maybe just the firearm does per military standards. or the ammo just didn't like the rifle as some do! either way, glad he wasn't successful!
I too have...well just have a 1st ever 7-08 along with a 7saum. 748 case fill will be between 89 and 94% 120 @ 2.700") depending on case h2o volume. 139 @ 2.775" will be in the 88-92% fill. 162 @ 2.775" in the 85 - 89%.
I have a '15 4x4 dually diesel w/34 gallon tank. The best mpg it has gotten is 23, but only averages 17 now. 86k on it and only had the def tank issue 1 time. Glad you like your new ride! I have a 2 wheel drive '81 crewcab 454 w/turbo 400 and 3.73 gears that would get better millage...
7-08rem w/22" barrel is why I was thinking it might not be fast enough twist. I guess I missed that in description? Thanks! 7saum has an 8 and wish it was 7.5 for sierra 197's, but seem to be out of stock which is why I got berger 195's. Bummer is I can't (unless hand fed) get any longer...
no info on nosler reload site or bullet info bout twist requirement for minimum twist..............i have an 8 and 10 twist as i'm sure the 8 is fast enough, but what about the 10?
