I am using a RCBS 505 scale. Lately i have lost some confidence in it. I have discovered discrepancies as much as 1.4gr on a 73gr charge when spot checked against a Lyman electronic scale with check weights. What are my options?
I recently picked up a case of 250 300WM long brass. Did i get good quality bras? What does "long" indicate?. Upon initial review, the brass weighs about 2.5gr more than Nosler 300WM brass.
I was just reading the August/September issue of handloader magazine. In that issue I spotted an ad for Hammer bullets. This looks like an interesting design. Does anybody have experience with this brand of bullet?
I want to spot check quickload data for a 300 Win mag. I am using nosler brass with a water volume of 90.3gr, Viht 565, 200gr partition, 26"barrel, 1:8 twist, max coal 3.42"

I have a 300 WM Hells Canyon long range. When i went to check chamber dimensions I discovered that distance to lands is 3.545max COAL. I am using a 200gr partition bullet. Due to the additional length how much is this likely to affect pressure? Rifle twist rate is 1:8 with a 26"barrel
On multiple threads I read about individuals coating the case neck with powder graphite to reduce ES/SD. How much of a reduction are people seeing as a result of this process?

A local gun shop has Vortex Talon 10x42 on a clearance sale. These binoculars are $200 off regular price. Will I see much difference between these and the Vortex Talon HD?

I was killing time in a local pawn shop and a older Winchester M70 caught my eye. The rifle is chambered in 338 Win Mag. Could anybody give me the vintage from the serial Number It is G956xxx. The rifle is showing wear on the barrel and stock no rust is evident. The scope is early Redfield 3x9...
I realize that I will most likely ruffle a few feathers in my thoughts about the next four years. I believe that we should reject the Republican answer and Democratic answer. Our elected officials shall focus on what is best for the greater society!

I need a reasonable quality scope for my wife's Remington model 7 260 Rem. Please keep in mind that maximum shooting distance would very likely be less than 250yds.

I will start off by saying that I am not sure where would be the best place to post this question.
My wife and I just purchased a home. The insurance company wants an appraisal of the firearms that I own. How should I go about doing this?
