    .222 Remington

    Don't be shy to use flat base bullets. All of my triple two's like the 50 gr flat base bullets. Most just don't like the boat tails. Great round.

    Mad Cow Disease ?

    This is what second opinions are for. And this gentleman needs one right now. Any diagnosis they call terminal should be double checked.

    Wheres all the powder

    If you have been loading H1000 for your 300WM for decades then you were with Marty McFly.

    Wheres all the powder

    I would suggest that if you can find anything you can use, buy it. It is only going to get more scarce and more expensive. I just can't believe reloaders are buying this all up and hoarding it. Loaded ammo is being bought up in a frenzy and not sure the military is not stock piling ammo too.

    Why I Crimp

    Yes it will change pressure. In an old Lyman manual I have (copy write 1970) they tested for this and other variables. Took one load, a 30-06 with one bullet and powder charge all the same. They changed case brands, primer brands and threw in a crimp. Pressures went from 49,000 all the way up to...

    Need reloading help

    If your rifle shoots at all, minute of deer at 300 yards should be easy to find. You are going to be rushing now and I will flat guarantee you will start all over when you get back. Why use this precious time now to find the last degree of accuracy when you know you won't be satisfied. Find a...

    I think I’ve been scammed!

    As said before, Paypal will not back you when they find out your purchase was gun related. You will eat it......

    I think I’ve been scammed!

    This went from a scope being sold to a custom rifle?

    I think I’ve been scammed!

    One of our friendly bullet makers on here had their account frozen for the same reason.

    I think I’ve been scammed!

    And yet you still see sellers on GB using Paypal. Horror stories about that have been discussed on here before.
