I’ve found achieving reliable terminal ballistics is a direct result of hitting your target in it’s vital area.

Yes you safely can!

I have the Frankfort Arsenal Tumbler. Been using it for a couple years now. Love it. Since I’ve had it I haven’t used my vibratory tumbler once and likely never will use that messy loud thing again.

Deprime as usual. Just do it slowly. Wear safety glasses and don’t look at it.

Save yourself the money and never make a mistake. Then you’ll never need one. :)

Hensoldt Riflescopes can easily cost $6k

I’m not a fan of Nosler brass either. I’ve had lots of .260 Remington come out of the box way under minimum trim length to the point were they aren’t usable and the primer pockets usually loosen up with only a couple firings. They sure do come in pretty boxes though, so they should be super...

Berger bullets has a video on their website explaining why their hunting bullets are designed the way they are. I may be wrong but I don’t think they really believe in bonded bullets.

Lapping is a thing of the past. If the rings need to be lapped they need to be tossed and you should buy better rings. Precision machine matched rings and base sets are offered by multiple reputable manufacturers. Seekins, Steiner, Badger, Nightforce, and US Optics to name a few.

I usually come in at 1/4 MOA or under when I’m done with load development on a bolt gun. Bolt guns are precise. Gas guns are accurate. Technically field artillery is accurate too.

A 6.5 SAUM will give anything that walks this earth a dirt nap with a well placed shot. I’ve been getting the job done for a long time with a .260 Remington on game sized up to elk and black bear. Marksmanship kills.

A lee reloading starter set. Wish I would have taken the time to learn reloading before I started purchasing equipment. I literally don’t use a single thing out of that original set anymore. I’ve since upgraded everything.

High quality wool socks of the appropriate weight. No cotton, ever. Smart wool is a quality brand.

.300 WM gets my vote.
