    CLP as a Carbon Remover in Bore?

    there was a lot youtube videos with people having mixed success with it and then the major barrel makers started to void warranties if you used it and that was the end of people using it, or admitting they are using it. I haven't used it myself Boretech has been my go to and happy with its...

    Forming 22-250AI from 22CM brass

    Peterson brass has lrp and srp but like most brass finding in stock is the biggest problem. Peterson has been consistently lower case capacity compared to other makes, but it is strong and a solid choice. i use it in 284 win and 243 and has stood toe to toe with other high end makes. DONT use...

    Hornady Brass Opinions

    the expansion at .200 line and web, how fast is that expanding? case length, is it taking multiple shots or only one to fill chamber another indication you are reaching max pressures. primer pockets, measured with pin gages not calipers how fast and how much are they expanding. all better...

    Hornady Brass Opinions

    if people would learn to read the brass and do what the brass is telling them instead of what they read on the internet most brass with a little prep is very usable including Hornady. I have Bertram, Federal, PMC, Hornady and many others that have gone 10+reloads and still going but I do what...

    Unis Ginex and Aguila Primers

    i was looking around and everything i needed was out of stock except primers. i like to make small purchases first to test waters before committing to large purchases. also could not find their hazmat fees which i am sure are not included in free shipping.

    6.8 western from 7 SAUM brass

    checked Hodgen load data and you are spot on with powder charges. if bullet is jammed and the case is held tight to bolt face there is no reason not to fire unless there is a powder or primer problem. if you have fired any other ammo without issue that eliminates the gun. pull down the ones that...

    Unis Ginex and Aguila Primers

    from what i was told expansion industries had money problems and was sold and moved to Arkansas and is now White River Energenics. their primers are at Republic Ammunition, but you know how the internet rumor mill can be.

    6.8 western from 7 SAUM brass

    the only time I seen that when fireforming is if the powder charge is too low, the gas gets pest the neck before it fully seals the neck. what powder charge and powder are you using.

    Unis Ginex and Aguila Primers

    Republic Ammunition is good to go. they are my go to primer shop. start an account the hazmat and shipping are better that way or at least it was couple months ago. my only experience with Fiocchi is with srp. but has great and going by what Old Rooster just posted the lrp are performing just...

    Unis Ginex and Aguila Primers

    the Fiocchi primers have turned out to be a surprise. Republic Ammunition has large and small in stock, the large are pricy at 210.00 for 1500ct.

    Jump Measurement Shorter?

    that was the worst I have seen, normally.003-.005 between lots. nobody wants to believe it but then again very few save the original bullet and checks the new lots against the original. if you're a book reloaded like so many, none of this matters but when you're trying for the most accuracy...

    Jump Measurement Shorter?

    the original post is about changing measurements as throat wears and the weird measurement he was getting and possible causes. if your checking comparison measurements you need to compare apples to apples and that means using the same bullet, same technique, same tools, same stage of cleaning...

    Jump Measurement Shorter?

    Jump Measurement Shorter?

    believe what you want but I have did this craziness when I first started and seen the differences and that is why I have very little hair left, now don't waste my time anymore. will just say if you are one to be concerned with measurements and comparisons use the same bullet you originally used...
