Tin, the 7MM is an awsome caliber, very versitile. Those 100 grainers are perfect preditor rounds. Whitetail though, IMHO, develop 140-154gr load using projectiles that have a short O.A.L. i.e. speer...
Thanks for your replies. My idea is to resize belted basic brass into 7MM STW. 416REM,350REM and 8MM REM all share like demensions in shoulder angle and body taper. In theory if I used a "step down...
Is it acceptable to size a belted basic or anything belted (416 rem 458 lott) down to 7mm? using several FL dies in sequence i.e. 375-338-30-28 or 416-350-323-28 would this over work the brass?...
7mm of any sort. not too big...not too small and ballistically superior to most
that is a bit too steep for R-P brass. thank you for the reply
You both have very valid points. My comment on odor was secondary to the question of these new "Organic or Natural or Super Duper military endorsed cleaners" are worth a try , say if a guy is out of...
WTB 7MM STW brass new or 1x fired Win, Nosler, Norma or A-Square prefered. Lots of 50 or more also prefered. It's almost like asking to move a mountain, yet I ask.
Has anyone tried either Gunzila or Mil-comm cleaners,solvents and lubes? Has anyone seen these for sale other than on their respective sites? Gunzila claims to be odor free, this appeals to me...
I have developed the habit of sealing both primers and bullits all the time. I do this for the sake of consistancy. Somehow every hunting season, at one point or another, a cartridge finds it"s way...
That is awsome! One usually sees a 45-70 in a rifle. You might want to use both paws on that.
I have a body dies and generally neck size for most of my cartridges, but this one (375 H&H) I cannot find a body die for so I will have to try your method after a few firings as I have new brass...
Thank you Paul. Sometimes vagueness helps to broaden the thought process. In any case your reply helped me as I am working load development on a belted cartridge and I just need to increase charge...
I have a few fired cases that the primers have backed out .001-.004 past flush with the head ( you can just catch you fingernail on it) what could be some causes ?
Is the strait 284 Winchester of reviving ? Is it worth the 200 fps over the 308 , 7mm-08 0r the 7x57 ? Is it worthy of consideration over the 7mm rsaum and 7mm wsm (being the fastest of the the short...
I am going to swap a barrel on a savage 111. There are two questions I have; 1.) Is there a difference between MODELS 110 AND 111 ? 2.) According to the information I have found ther are two...
A hunting buddy of mine tried Hornady's Superformance ammo in two different rifles a semi-auto 338 Win and a bolt 30-06 accuracy suffered terribly in both. He was told hornady makes some bullets...
I dont have match barrels just factory savages I am trying to tweak a bit more accuracy from. The brass I use is Norma,Nosler and Win of which the necks seem to be close ... that is measured with a...
i am going to buy either a forsner or rcbs neck turning rig . rcbs is 2x as much as forsner but both have good reviews any insights? thanks
has anybody tried EFK's dbl or trpl recoil springs for glock or any other sidearm? do they work as well as the propaganda -hype reads?
go for the sweets best there is IMHO
Thanks for your insigtht guys I have a BAR MKII (not the longtrac) it shoots well so it is definately worth continuing to load for it. I would expect the chamber is within sammi spec and go no go...
these cases have been loaded several times allready and also annealed I am considering collet neck sizing
I have a semi-auto 30-06 . I FL size (have adjusted and re-adjusted/set the die to man. specs) measuring headspace with a StoneyPoint gauge avr. length is 4.048 .048 being the critical # after...
Jim excellent site although that may be a tad too freaky for me in most cases but very cool I would even give it a run if I had a scanner (I guess i live behind the times a bit) CTC is how I measure...
