Can someone recommend a solid ring/base setup for the following gun? I was going to use a two piece base of some sort and Burris Signature Zee rings but have heard from a few sources that they would not be sufficient for a heavy recoiling/lightweight gun. Rem 700 with ABS barrel 338 RUM The...

I have close to 400 pieces of 7mm Rem Mag brass. I just picked up a 358 Norma mag and was wondering if I could neck up this brass instead of buying new stuff. Thanks.

what is case capacity compared to a 338 win? Thanks.

My Rockchucker is on it's last leg. I got it from my dad over 10 years ago and it is getting pretty worn out. What would be the recommended press for an upgrade? I've heard a lot of good reports on the Forster Co-Ax but know very little about it. I don't load enough volume to justify a...

I am looking for a scope for a 264 win mag. I'd like to take a 300 yard zero then have hash marks at 4,5,6,7 and 800 yards. Do any of the scope manufacturers build reticles like this? What about a reticle based on actual measured drops? Thanks.

I recently bought a model 70 with a new heavy sporter Pacnor barrel that is 27" long and an 8 twist. Can someone recommend a good elk and deer load? Thanks.

Initially that's what I thought the problem was but upon closer inspection, it's the area of the case just above the web...

get 1 x fired brass to fit in my chambers? I've had this happen three times now with three custom guns. 300 Win Mag, 22-250 and now a 7mm RUM. I bought fired brass for all of them, ran it through the full length sizer and they will not chamber. Some barely chamber with a bit of force...

I believe the problem was my die. I machined 0.015" off of it and I think it needs more. The brass will chamber now with minimal effort anyways. Thanks for all of the advice.

It is after trying to chamber. They chamber after full length sizing but very hard. There is no chance of them chambering before I size, it's just that the die isn't making them small enough. It just sucks getting rid of this much brass.

I picked up 100 rounds of 1 x fired 300 Win Mag brass at a gunshow recently. I ran it all through my RCBS die and it is very difficult to chamber. There is a polished area all around the case just in front of the band. It seems like my chamber is a bit tight or my die is a bit loose. What...

Very nice looking guns.

Would also like it to be able to feed reliable from a DM system or just the stock BDL magazine. Thanks.
