[QUOTE="diriel, post: 527301, member: 26983"] My reloading bench is in my computer room. I used 4x4, 2x12, and 1 1/4" Decking Plywood to build my bench. I like a really solid bench. I have my Lee 4 hole press, and my Rockchuker both mounted, my Forster case trimmer, and of course my Uniflow powder measure. Back a ways is my 1010 Scale, mounted on a Step Up for easy reach and line of sight, and of course a trickler. I hear you on the electronic. And perhaps one of these days I will join the revolution. :) I do still have some ball powder floating around that I use for odd jobs, or stuff like you mention. One powder that has recently caught my attention is Alliant Power Pro 2000MR. Reportedly it has aproximately .85fps per degree F. change between -20 to +165 I think it was. Which seems fairly decent. From what I hear it was actually designed with the 308win, 175 SMK combination in mind. At a minimum I would like to get another 308win and try some of that with the 185gr Berger VLDs, just to see how it does down range. Still another powder I would like to tinker with is Alliant AR Comp, which is listed as being "A new, and highly temp stable RL15 replacement". It would seem I have fallen a bit behind the reloading times. Time to "man up" and get to experimenting again! Thing is, I have not seen any New And Uber, slow burning powders yet. I mean H4831sc and H1000 are Real Nice and all...but you would think even they could be improved upon. Before I can even consider the medium burn rate powders, I need to get another 308win. Like an asshat, I sold my last one to a Friend who really wanted it... Then again, I may just go with something like a 7-08 to unify my bullet selections :) Well sorta... decisions and choices! Have a good one, Gary [/QUOTE]
