I have found my bullet touching the lands oal first and then started 0.10 off the lands and worked deeper. I have as a general rule 0.50 to 0.60 off the land lots of times to give the best accuracy.
I started using Forester (Bonanza BR Dies) in either '77 or '78. When I bought my straight-line seater die and since then they are I use for sizing (Both Neck and FL) and seating. In my opinion for the money, you can't beat them.
I have 500 primers left out a Brick of Rem 9-1/2's I bought in May of 1976, I stopped using them in September 1977 when I switched over to using Fed210 primers. I looked at the box but there is no price sticker, so I don't know what I gave for it. I probably should shoot some of the someday to...
I personally prefer blued steel and walnut. With that said I do like the Boyd's laminated stocks and have had a few of them, I don't care for thumbhole stocks though. I also like Bell and Carlson synthetic and if I was going have a synthetic stock that would be it.
I was wondering if Dr. Mike could run Quickload for me. Thank You in advance.
