    ****UPDATE*****anyone using these from Redding?

    yes , I use them for everything . I have four sets of them . they are great . I have three different 7mm-08's and one set of dies . I just use the appropriate shellholder . I could never get a consistent shoulder bump by gapping the die away from the shellholder . using these shellholders my...

    Testing reloads for acceptable-desired Powder Charge Weight

    start low and work up while watching for pressure is the golden rule that should always be followed . if starting out at close to a max load , what do you do when you lock the gun up ? or how much do you lower the charge to get a safe load ? this is a method for disaster .

    .300 Win Mag brass short?

    this brass is about .010 shorter than SAAMI spec . that's not going to cause you any problems . I would use it and let it grow . I would not trim the other brass short to match the Nosler brass . nothing with the rifle should cause this . I've read a few times about new Nosler brass being a...

    Starting Jump in Tikka T3 in 300WSM

    I like to start out long , then I only have one way to go , that's shorter . I start out at the max length that my rifle allows . that length will be either the bullet touching the barrel lands , or the magazine box length . I'll find the length to touching the lands and go 0.010 shorter , and...

    6.5 CM light loads

    I have a 260 rem that I'm using reduced loads in for my grandson . I used H4895 . I did the 60% of max load . I used a 107 TMK in these . it's very mild recoil at the 60% powder charge . I put a couple of these bullets in water jugs . I'm pretty sure I posted the results in the bullet test...

    270WSM

    is the die touching the shellholder , at the top of the stroke , with a piece of brass being sized ? if the die gaps away from the shellholder any at all , you're not sizing to the dies full ability . what will cause this is , lack of lube . if the die is staying in contact with the...
