I'm going to be in Virginia Beach for the next couple of weeks, and I'll have some time on my hands next weekend. Was planning to take my rifle and find a range with at least 600 yards--preferably 1000. Anyone know of a public range within a couple of hours of Hampton Roads? I'm military, and...

I see that you have a Kimber 84L in 280 AI. I have had some trouble getting mine to shoot well, and I was wondering if you'd share some details of your load....seems like yours is well dialed in. Thank you. Chris

I'd like to hear your thougths on why the threaded die/press vs. arbor press would contribute to the error...I hadn't thought about that. I think I'm starting to get my head around this. Reading an article by German Salazar yesterday helped a bit, though I just had my "ah ha" moment while...

I'll bet you'd be wrong. When I do a round robin test of six different seating depths (five shot groups in 0.005" increments), I can most definitely see one to two that are FAR better than the rest, and they are often not consecutive depths. If you'd like to see one such test, I'll happily...

This is what I've been doing. It's slow, but it's the only way I guess to ensure that each round is as precise as possible.

Hmmm... I didn't know that Redding would make a seating stem to fit a particular bullet. Not sure I'd want to mess with that, as I use MatchKings and VLDs, and I certainly don't want to be changing out seating stems every time.

I've often wondered how others do this -- particularly those who are building precision ammo. I'm talking about BR quality ammo (and yes, I have a rifle that will allow me to see the variance on paper). When I measure loaded ammo with my Starrett calipers, clamp-on comparator, and comparator...
