[QUOTE="Onewolf, post: 770813, member: 54808"] I just started handloading in January and I do not have a chronograph, yet. It is at the very top of my 'list' and I will be buying one within a couple of weeks. I have been using Lapua Rem 260 brass that originally came with the 20 boxes of Corbon ammo (139 Scenar) I bought from CTD for $34/box. I figured it was a reasonable way to acquire 400 Lapua brass and have some good factory ammo to practice with. I am using CCI BR-2 primers (until I run out). Hopefully I can locate some more BR-2s. I had great success with the 140gr A-MAX bullets especially at 800-1000 yards. My best day at 1000 yards was with the A-MAX 140s. But I couldn't find the A-MAX 140s in stock when it came time to choose a 'winner' and the SMK142s won by default because they are the only ones I could find in stock to order. I now have two boxes of 500 SMK142s sitting on the bench at home. :) [/QUOTE]
