    unexplained pressure

    Are you getting all the carbon out when your cleaning. Carbon ring could explain spike in pressures. Also how many times has your brass been fired? is it possible that piece of brass reached its end of life? some things to look at if you haven't already. Good Luck Mike

    Vortex/nightforce BDC question

    The main question I have is what kind of hunting or shooting are you doing with this rifle? The scopes i mentioned i use on my varmint rifles and am usually shooting from a bench a have time to dial. Now my deer and coyote rifles are a different story. I personally don't like the exposed...

    Vortex/nightforce BDC question

    I have to disagree with part of pills post. He is correct that the FFP is good at all powers but the SFP can be as well. If you look at the front side of the power ring it states 1x, 2x,3x,4x, which is the power magnifier on a 6X24 PST at 24 power the hash marks are i believe 2 moa (not sure)...

    build 25-06

    generally cheaper to buy, unless you can do the work yourself or if you are buying a high end rifle like a Cooper. then you maybe able to build one cheaper. However you have a savage 111 you should be able to do a switch barrel rig with it, at a lower cost than anything, All you should need is...

    Reloading for a pump .223

    I agree that you shouldn't have to crimp. With that being said, RCBS does make a special set of dies for ARs. It comes with a small base resizing die to ensure proper feeding and a taper crimp seating die, which is different than a standard seater die (roll crimp). Taper crimp die is just...

    Ramshot Big Game in 22-250

    I don't have a chrono at this time so i really can't tell you, I was going for accuracy. load data puts it around 3600 fps but thats just a best guess. As far as clean, I would say not as clean as the new CFE 223 but not bad to clean. prior to the big game I only ever used H380 in the 22-250...

    Case stuck in die. Help Please.

    Like broz said throw the "One Stuck" away. Thats what i ended up doing. I reloaded for 15 years with RCBS lube before i ever stuck a case but had to try the one shot. now I use redding imerial sizing wax (which works really well and not sticky) with RCBS pad there just in case. There is a...

    Bullet jump/ crushed case shoulder

    1+ on Joe's comment Another thing you may want to invest in is a Hornady overall length gauge to help you get your depth set properly. Good luck

    Need a new scope in the $1000 range

    I have both a Zeiss and PST in 6 X 20 powers. I favor the PST. Don't get me wrong the Zeiss is a great scope but i can't justify spending the extra $250-300 again for maybe a little higher quality glass. The PST does have a zero stop and illuminated redicle which the Zeiss does not. The thing...
