    Critique my Setup

    Compared to your set up 45 years ago mine looked like a bathroom scale, vise grips and a hammer. nothing wrong with what you got going on. I would have killed for a turret press when I started and Starett calipers, I still dont have those I got excited when I got my Mititoyos.

Spin the case inside the comparator and you get measurements that vary by .003 or more. This is brand new Lapua brass and brand new Peterson brass. I bought this to check my shoulder...

    Anti-cant level

    Looking for a quality (not to be confused with expensive) anti cant level that is easily visable while in shooting position. It will be used with a NF ATACR 5-25x56 f1. Rail or scope mounted just as long as I can see it without lifting my head. What are your thoughts?

    338l oal

    Building a 338 Lapua looking at the terminus Kratos x action which will be able to accommodate a 4in round. Is this long enough for a 300 grain led core bullet seated shallow to maximize case capacity for the 338 l

    338 builds (lapua/edge/or the like) lets see them.

    That's a sweet piece! So all my guns have Nick names and this would definitely be called the ghost.
