Anyone have any thoughts or comments regarding the Vortex HS-T?
I am looking at either the 4-16 or even the 6-24. I currently have 2 Vortex HS 4-16's and love them. Also have a Minox ZA5 4-20x50 SF with BDC Reticle but getting ready to sell that to make room for a possible new HS-T. :grin...
Hi People,
Missed everyone here! Looks like many of the same ole guys still around! Been 2+ years since I have been here! Had to take a little hiatus for some health reasons but I am back in the saddle for this Fall 2016 Elk season.
Anyway, went to install my quickload cd and found it...
My active account is inactive because I changed my email (aka 338winmag)
That is very good to hear!
Nosler Seconds site has some over-runs so I got another 200 there.
Your recommendation was the final nail to convince me these wil be my hunting bullet.
Thanks DrMike!!!!

After seeing this post on the VLD and a first hand experience by a hunter in our hunting party this year, I just have to comment. I built this Berger reload for a hunter. This reload was shooting perfect 5/8" at 200 literally every single time throughout the fall before the hunt. :) I had some...
I bought the lead sled that has the tray for bags. Flattened out the curved lip closest to shooter, and anchored 2 25 pound barbell plates using velcro straps. It holds the weights solid with no movement at all.
At one time I thought it affected POI but further test with different bullets...
Hey Bullet, how far off the lands for the TTSX are you for bullet seating for the 300 win mag. I am hoping friends rifle wil shoot these.
For my 338 Win mag I found .095 +- .003 is the incredible magic number for the ttsx 225 gr.
.050, .060 .070 .080 amd .105, .115, and .125 were all between...
Good Posts. I am just trying to start this year with having a base from some manufacturers and then improve my handloads based on their ammo as a starting point. I was just surprised to see such small powder. :):) Anyone else using anything other than RL19 for 338 Win Mag 225 grain bullets...
I had purchsed a couple of boxes of Custom Nosler Brass. One box was short. I called them and I might have also spoke to Mr. Harris. They took lot number from box and he took care of me with more than just the number of replacements. A top quality company. I am more than happy with Nosler.

Good Day Team,
I decided to purchase a box of Federal 338 Win Mag 225 AB rounds and compare as many things about the round to my reloads of the same. Along with case differences and bullet differences already discerned, I found something interesting and request if anyone can take a guess.
I...
Hi All,
I actually had a very positive experience with Redding just recently as well. I purchased a die from a 3rd party vendor and was sent the wrong caliber. I received good service from the 3rd party vendor but upon receiving the correct die, it appeared possibly defective. I decided to...
As Always, you guys are rocket scientist. I am going to have to do some research on the architecture of brass to better understand. :)
Thanks team!

UMMM... Well DRMike might have gave the answer. I am not sure where and actually what is the web but heard it a few times.
It is hard to tell with picture but it is a line that circles the brass about 3/8" to 1/2" above the belt. Is this circular line called the web?
HI Team,
I have noticed a very light ring around my nosler brass approximately 3/8 - 1/2" above the belt. I have been resizing on shoulder with .001-.002.
I have some brand new Nosler Virgin Brass that has the same ring but very faint. Now that the brass has been shot 3-4 times, it is more...
Yupper Scotty!
I took the advice from JD338 and others. 30 pieces are on their 4th reload and they look like brand new. I am not kidding. I am not lying. I do not work for Nosler (lol)
I am now a Nosler Brass convert along with my Nosler AB bullets. The only thing is I bought brand new. I did...
I am taking 2 boxes of 20
1 bullet for bear tag
1 bullet for cow tag
1 bullet for bull tag
1 bullet for buck tag
16 extra bullets for protection against big foot that Powerstroke is going to scare up in his area and push over to area 35 :grin:
2nd box of 20 is in case the first box somehow...
