    Lightest load Bullseye/200gr swc

    I'm sure the Garmin chrony has put the resale value of the labradar in the give it away column . I'll keep using the labradar until it quits , instead of spending another bunch of money on a Garmin and putting the labradar on the shelf . labradar now sells a high mount . to place over...

    Die to press alignment

    try the standard die , nothing to lose by trying it . back to the bushing die . I'd next try it without a bushing . if the runout is good , I'd try it with a bigger bushing . if runout is good , I'd try putting the correct bushing in .

    PA is using a liquid salt brine , to pretreat the roads before a snow hits . then they use the typical salt / antiskid during the storms . the brine is mean stuff , it creeps . it gets inside of everything .it seems nothing is sealed good enough to keep it out .

    Die to press alignment

    Mark , great , that's what I hoped for ,you're checking after each step. if this is a bushing die ; when you shake the die can you hear the bushing move ? the bushing should be free to move . try flipping the bushing over , to see if that helps . how much are you down sizing the...

    Ford Trucks.

    I'm not sure about you other guys , I live in a bad rust area . heavy use of road salt just kills the local vehicles . trying to keep an older vehicle going mechanically is not too hard . trying to keep ahead of the rust is tough .

    Henry 243 long ranger

    I'm not sure what the set up is on these Henry's . watch the picatinny mounting screw length . I've ran into screws that were a touch too long and bottomed out before clamping tight against the base . the easy way to check this is to put one screw in at a time , snug up that screw and...

    Anyone have load recipe for fire forming 264 Win Mag with faster powder?

    I've never tried to use an oversized expander button . my thoughts was , it might crush the case being the sharp taper on the button . I put a nice inside chamfer on the case mouth , lube it up , and go slow , with a mandrel . is this how you use an expander button ?

    Transmission problems seem to be the norm in todays vehicles . this seemed to start with the "CVT" transmissions , and has carried over into the more traditional transmissions . the more gears , or speeds , it has , the more shifting it does . I blame a lot of todays problems on the...

    Anyone have load recipe for fire forming 264 Win Mag with faster powder?

    I have no idea why the virgin brass doesn't fire consistently for you . is this brass factory primed ? if it is maybe bad primers . try to use your calipers and measure the belt width , and also the measure the case head to the top of the belt. this one will be tricky . maybe the belt isn't...

    Anyone have load recipe for fire forming 264 Win Mag with faster powder?

    on a belted case , the shoulder length means nothing for correct firing . the belt holds the brass case back against the bolt face . the belt sets the headspace on the initial firing . after the brass is fully formed , the brass can be resized to headspace off the shoulder . most new brass...

    Hunting in North Carolina?

    I've hunted deer in N. Carolina probably 20 - 25 times . I've only hunted the east side though . the farthest west I've hunted would probably be 30 miles west of I-95 . probably Scottland Neck would be a town that would be as far east of I-95 as I've hunted . hunted a fair amount around...
