    6.5/.284 die - brass question

    I have several sets of Redding FL and NK bushing dies, along with RCBS benchrest, Lee, Lyman, Hornady etc. I like the bushing FL dies best as I can adjust the amount of shoulder push back by using competition shell holders, the NK dies won't tough the shoulder, at least all the bushing NK dies...

    6.5/.284 die - brass question

    Zinger I like Hornady sizing dies but the seating dies suck. Get a Forester Ultra seater (cheapest of the inline, micrometer seaters) and your troubles will be over. While you're at it get a Redding full length bushing sizer, mic a case with a seated bullet and get a bushing about 0.003"...

    Savage in 338 Lapua

    I'm interested, what part of a Savage receiver is cast? I have 5 receivers that I mix and match barrels and they don't look cast in the least, besides cast receivers are just as strong or stronger than tubular steel receivers, reference Ruger's. I modified the mags on my Savage LA's to take a...

    Prove MK's Expand At Long Range.

    Re: Prove MK\'s Expand At Long Range. I think Savage99 is just trying to stir up the pot. Goto Accurate Reloading if you want to waste a few minutes to see his mindset. That site had a very long thread on MK's and this guy is trying to do the same here. The best way to get rid of him is not...

    **Reloading Safety Reminder**

    As the saying goes, "Been there, done that". I don't want to repeat the catechism because no one listens and it never seems to sink in until you do it at least once. But...here is something to think real hard about: A 5% reduction in velocity is a 10% reduction is pressure or another way to...

    Seating Die inconsistency

    Deadeye Treating your rifle as a multi-component system and reducing variability in every component is the key to uniformity, and unifority is the key to the winners circle. It doesn't matter whether you're bowling, golfing or doing the grand. Learning which variable is the most important and...

    Seating Die inconsistency

    Deadeye. Here is something to think about. I measured several boxes of Nosler bullets, BT and Parts in several calibers. Most of the BT's, between 85 to 95 percent all measured the same bullet length while the other percent ran up to +/- 0.005". I shot two 5 shot groups with 22, 6mm and 338...
