Hi, Im looking for a little bit of impute from you guys Myself and a group of other students here in the Gunsmithing program here at TSJC a going to be starting a small business Fire forming brass through our reloading class that speedy is teaching. What i would like to know from you is what...

I'm a Student in the TSJC Gunsmithing program and for my fall semester we need to have a Remington 700 to true. Well I plan to build the rifle for my dad in a 25-06 improved but hes left handed. So if anybody has a Left hand 700 long action laying around that they would be willing to part with...

Every barrel is different but from what me and my friends have been able to test its usually within about 25-30fps of what we have come up with if thats what you where meaning. It also is able to give you an indication on how temp sensitive the loads are going to be which is very nice for people...

i love quickload. it has completely turned around how i look at loading and has saved me large amounts of money. I can now figure out what powders should work the best with out having to buy every powder under the sun trying to figure out what works. It was on the expensive side at $150 but i...

From what Im seeing on Quick load is that if you can push a 140 berger at 3200 (65000 psi with H1000, VV N570 can do 3250fps within saami spec) that with the velocity and energy numbers you posted the 264win is good out to 1000 with 1800fps and 1020ft-lbs out of a 26" tube. The 260 on the...

I am currently going to school at Trinidad state Junior college. I moved out here from iowa where i tried to do a little bit of coyote hunting without much luck. but none the less i am completely hooked. The big problem now is just that i have nowhere and no one to hunt with so if anyone is in...

Absolutely no offense taken JE. That's the great thing about this business, everybody has there own opinions on what works best and well as the customers they try to serve. I agree with you 100% that any action can be made to shoot if you treat it like it wants to be treated. I personally am...

To clarify my post as the information as it was handed down to me. And how it was put was that when the custom reamer manufacturers grind wby reamers they have to grind the radius into a grinding wheel for both radius's. and generally when there done with that set of reamers the wheels get...

Thats just how it got explained to me by a VERY reputable gunsmith. i would rather not drop names but just believe me that hes well respected

he also didn't run them though a set of dies that didn't match his chamber did he??

i know where talking about hard to find powders as it is but if you can get a hold of Norma MRP or Vihtavuori N560. They both show impressive velocities and generally are less temp sensitive.

I always order my resize reamers .003 under which gives you anywhere from .001 to .0015 which is plenty to load properly in most conditions but if you are going to but hunting in different weather conditions you might want to go with about .005 instead.
