    Which Dies for 6.5x300 Wby Mag?

    I did that with Redding and they have a 10-12 month wait. I'll try giving Wilson a call

    Which Dies for 6.5x300 Wby Mag?

    Only standard die sets are available to load for the 6.5x300 Weatherby. I was hoping to use a bushing die and a micrometer seater to load as precise as possible but nothing is available. Other than settling for dies that are available and removing the size button and following up with a mandrel...

    Preferred Press for Precision Rifle?

    I've been reloading for several years from small pistol to large magnum rifle. I started on a Lee Classic Turret and that's what I still use for all of my rifle loads. It has served me ok but as they say, you start reloading and you shoot more. I'm no exception plus I can shoot over a thousand...

    7mm RM Recipe for Muley Hunt

    I load several handgun and rifle calibers. The 7mm rem mag is one of my favorite because it is my go to hunting gun. My 1:10 Ruger Mark II really likes the Barnes 140 TTSX over 69.2 of H1000. Killed lots of mule deer with that combo. Shoots right at 3000 fps

    6.5x300 Weatherby Projectiles

    6.5x300 Weatherby Projectiles

    New here so apologize if this posts twice. I'm in the process of gathering components to load for this new caliber of mine. I'm thinking of developing two loads. One with a heavier bullet for hunting and a lighter bullet for coyote\targets around the ranch. I'll be using US869 and maybe try...
