    F****ing Hornady brass!

    I just got 100 pieces of new Hornady 300 H&H. It looks good on a quick initial peek at primer pockets & flash holes, but haven't checked thickness yet. Some just fired Sellior & Bellot 6.5 Crudmore brass I checked is wonderfully uniform thickness wise, but the primer pockets are too small for...

    Reloading Die Question.

    Shade Tree, I'm unclear what shimming the bottom of the case will do if you dont want to set the shoulder back farther. From the original post it sounds like the expansion ring needs to be sized down. If the diameter of the expansion ring is not being sized, but you dont want to push the...

    What is everyone using in there Brass Polisher ?

    I sold my corncob machine decades ago. Noisy, messy, & slow. I load small batches (under 50, usually around 20-25 at a time) & am still using pieces of a Krazy Kloth (the dirtier it gets the better it works) from 30 years ago to clean carbon from outside case necks & an old bore brush for the...

    Barrel cleaning and settling down

    Unless they've changed the formula, RemOil has teflon in it. Good for door hinges & externals, but not so good for rifle bores. There was a new "thing" in the benchrest world in the late 80s for about a month or two. It was a teflon lube called Friction Block, & there were a number of...

    Nosler 2020 Bullet Wish List

    I see there will be .224 50gr Varmageddon. Good deal when they become available. More .358s. 200 & 225, maybe even a 250gr Ballistic Tips? How about a 270 or 275 Partition? The plain old Solid Bases worked well for me & some I still use are getting scarce on my shelves. 22/50 & 52gr, 6.5/125 &...

    220 Swift Data

    Why mess with success, unless you're just experimentally inclined? I had a Ruger 77V about 30 years ago. H4895 & the thin-jacketed Hornady 50gr SX seated long was the best I came up with. Velocity was around 3850fps, groups flirted with 1/2". IMR 4064 shot well with flyers, & the speed wasn't...

    280 Rem 700 custom shop

    Remman, I'm a little late here too. I have almost a twin to your rifle except with a 22" barrel. You must have a slow lot of H4831. I got 2803fps @80*F with 160 Part. in RP brass with RP 9 1/2 & 56.5 gr from an old can of H4831 into .642" for 4 shots @100 yds. 58gr gave me 2892fps @70* & less...
