    CH4D customer service

    I had a 8x58RD die set from them and I experienced that the die did not crimp the neck enough to hold the bullet. I offered to buy a custom neck sizing die from them to solve the problem instead of sending the dies back, but I hear nothing back from them believing this should be a fair deal for...

    Lapua 300wm

    Think it is first time lapua actually make there own belted brass. The previous ones where Norma ones I believe. I tried them, but not much more than fireforming. Still in early stages of load development

    Lapua 300wm

    Anyone else tested the 300wm brass that lapua has out? Necked down to 7mm and they failed to chamber so I had to turn the necks unlike the Winchester brass I used previously. Brass tolerance seams more consistent than the Winchester.

I rather enjoy it to be introvert so I got the time to sit and watch everyone else getting it and learn about the side effects and I dont mind someone more exposed than me to get...

    7mm Rem Mag Norma brass discontinued??

    They are available on normas own webshop here so I suspect they either have some left here or they chosen to drop the exports because of popularity.

    Not getting in the mood for the holidays.

    Numbing the logical parts of the brain migth help. If I could go hunting trough the holidays it would ve soo much better. The wife is happy that I wound walk out the door once there is light and weather for hunting. Funny I had no bourbon yesterday, but got a bottle in exchange for some meat.

Got a the whole skeleton into a 4galon pot and boiled broth. Started to look for a pressure cooker...

    I probably been labeled a communist by some here for actually voice my opinion about gun regulations. For online sales I really don't see the point. If you really want a gun then it sucks that the only store have it is in the other side of the country. I can buy guns online, but I need send a...

    Brightest Scope at Dawn and at Dusk / Moon Light?#15483382

    I got that one too on my varmint rig. Good tube for the price. Also used it for low light hunting, but still not as clear as one with fixed zoom. Think the next step should be termal scope, but they are forbidden here for anything, but varmint so I strugle to defend the cost :(
