    Weighing brass?

    Try it and see how it works. You can always cull more later.

    Weighing brass?

    I go by + or - 1% of the average rather than a certain grain. If you use 1 grain to cull brass you will cull a lot more smaller cases like .223 & .22-250 than you will larger cases such as .30-06 or the magnums. Your average is 153.2gr and 1% of that is 1.53gr.

    What is this powder?

    Since you know what the charge is, the bullet and the cartridge, you could look up the various stick powders recommended for the cartridge and see what is listed for that bullet weight and charge weight. Just by eyeballing it I'd be tempted to say it's H-4831SC.

    What To Avoid When Hand Loading!

    I got burned on not keeping a good inventory of supplies. It sucks trying to find enough bullets or primers at the last minute. I use the Sharpie method for denoting different loads. Instead of marking the case, I color code the primers and/or bullet tips (no clean up afterwards). You can get...

    Ruger 77 twist rate?

    Does anyone know what the twist rate is for a mid-1970's Ruger Model 77 in 7mm Rem Mag? A friend of mine wants to use 165gr bullets in his but I'm not sure if they will stabilize. I know it hates the 175gr bullets.

    scopes

    There is a fairly big variation out there. I use a Leupold Vari-X II 6-18X40 AO but many like a higher variable power maginification while other like a high fixed power. The most common brands are Leupold, Burris, Weaver, Nikon, Nightforce, Sightron and Zeiss.
