    consistent measurement with Hornaday case length comparator.

    If your not using the anvil, it's worth purchasing to help the case sit flat and level. Another thing to notice, is the slot on the comparator isn't cut in the middle. When attaching it to your caliper, make sure the slot on the comparitor lines up with the other jaw on your caliper. If they'e...

    First time antelope hunt

    I'll go a different direction, and make the point of being able to accurately judge the horn size. Ears are about 6" tall, and the cutters should be above that, ground shrinkage happens. IMO, antelope hunting is as fun as it gets, enjoy your time.

    How to Ship a Rifle in 2021?

    Items must be properly packaged to make an insurance claim. Proper packaging basically consists of shipping the rifle in a factory box, inside of a 200 psi cardboard box, but there are other ways to do it. One thing that is required though, is that all of the packing materials must be kept by...

    How to Ship a Rifle in 2021?

    If you ship it yourself, make a copy of your drivers license and use a sharpie to cross out your D/L number, and all other stuff that's not necessary. All the receiving FFL needs is your name and address, this lessens the chance of ID theft.

    25 WSSM thoughts......

    Thanks, the one I'm looking at has close to 1,000 down the pipe. Thinking that maybe a 26-06AI might be the better route to take. I don't need, or want anything really, I'm just bored with what I have, and want something new to play with. I'm kinda like a rat, new shiny things always get my...

    25 WSSM thoughts......

    Can anyone give me some real world experience with a 25 WSSM please? I've read all about the feeding issues, and how the 25-06 has left it in the dust, and all of the other negative press regarding the chambering. A local one has caught my eye, a Winchester model 70 coyote, and it seems cheap...

    Cartridge Base walks in Shellholder when seating

    You mention that you use the same shell holder for other chambering's. Do the cases still walk around when loading with different dies? You should be able to screw another seater die in, and put a loaded round for those dies and watch it..

    SHORT ACTIONS ARE STUPID!!

    And maybe we should have stuck with open sights, or the super advanced fixed 4x scopes of their day's? Wait, is this going to be another "school experiment" thread, kinda like the primers that were for sale a while back, where the OP gets everyone wound up, and then says ha, just kidding???

    Best hammer bullet for 6.5 PRC

    Hopefully this thread gets some more replies. Just bought a 6.5 PRC and am thinking that since I have a 300, I really don't need to go with the heavier bullets to kill elk sized animals when I really plan to use it for deer. Liking the 124 HH's..

    6.5 PRC RCBS shell holder size????

    Bought a set of Redding dies awhile back to use for my 6.5 PRC. Looked online, and it said that a #4 RCBS shell holder was correct, already had one so I thought I was good. Recently, a buddy bought a PRC and a set of RCBS dies, and the box said use a #38 shell holder. Looking on the RCBS chart...
