    I need some guidance on setting a die up..

    Thanks for everyone’s responses and advice! I ended up walking away from them for a few days…disassembled/cleaned my sizing die, reinstalled the die and everything worked fine. I don’t know if there was trash in the die, I didn’t see anything obvious, or what. Now the sized cases chamber like...

    It’s a Hornady run of the mill two die set. The New Dimension Set I’m pretty sure. I ordered the imperial wax…when it comes in a few days I’ll tackle it again. Thanks for all the input!

    I guess in all of this I’m not sure if I have the doe setup correctly or if it sets up any different than non belted dies. And yes I have loaded for 26 nosler, 6.5 creed/prc, 300/270 wsm and a few others. I will order some of that Imperial Wax. I hear it’s good stuff.

    I have a Tikka T3X 7mm Rem Mag that I want to change over to a 7 PRC. I understand the prefit route but I don’t have those tools, but get could them. I see people talking about having a blank threaded and chambered then screwed on an action fairly reasonably priced. I have contacted all the...

    Another moon question…Is the belt supposed to go into the die or stop at the shoulder of the die? The belt was at the shoulder is why I ask.

    Yeah that name was supposed to be deleted 🤷. Anyways I am gathering what you’re saying. I tried to screw it in another 1/4 turn and then chamber a round. It was better but not great. Then the brass was crazy hard to run through the die so I thought I was doing worse than good. No I don’t have...

    I am experienced in reloading although I would not call myself a pro. Without boring everyone with what I know I’m going to ask what I don’t…today I tried to reload some once fired brass for 300 win mag. I set my die up like normal and after I ran a few through I tried to chamber them in my...

    6.8 Western or 7 PRC for new rifle?

    Everyone has made good points towards both cartridges...kind of what I also came to the conclusion of in my mind. It's probably going to come down to what gun I get a better deal on when it's time to buy. Right now factory ammo for both are about the same price with the 7 prc being slightly...

    6.8 Western or 7 PRC for new rifle?

    I have sold the last of my 270 WSMs a few months ago...I had a Savage Stainless 110 that was super accurate but a guy locally wanted it so I sold it. I regret it all the time really
