    Higher quality trimmers worth it?

    It’s not quick, but I like using a Wilson trimmer with case holder. Plus I can use the set-up to inside neck ream or ream primer pockets. I don’t trim hundreds at a time, more like 50, so it works for me.

    anybody else do this? (case lube and primer pocket cleaning novel ideas)

    I use a squirt of 3-n-1 oil on a gloved hand and then stir my brass around in a 1 gallon storage bag. Slickest lube I’ve ever used, absolutely zero drag when sizing and cleans up in an ultrasonic cleaner. I also used a PP uniformer to clean up the pockets. First used straightens the PP walls...

    Precision Rifle Gear Is the Garmin Xero still the Whiz Bang Chrono to get? Is there a new(er) model coming this year?

    I bought the LabRadar LX recently and got it out to the range last week. It worked great going back and forth between a 6 creed and a 7-300 NMI. It didn’t pick up any other shooters at nearby tables and worked with the unsurpassed creed and suppressed NMI. No connectivity issues with the...

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    What velocity are you getting on the 25 creed? Where does it fall in with regards to a 25SST or the 25 PRC?

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    Well, I resisted as long as I could, but I finally picked up a SOLUS obsidian with mag bolt face from Classic Firearms, the price was too good. Then I went to the Aero website and purchased a .478 bolt head and action wrench, both on sale. I think I’ll make this one a 22 or 25 creedmoor…

    Stiller vs Surgeon

    For the cost of a surgeon, I would buy an impact. I have 3, a 737 and two 787s, by far my favorite action so far. I also have the original Bighorn sporter, surgeon 1086, APR G2, Terminus Zeus QC, and a Kelbly Atlas.

    Big game all-rounder

    7mm rem mag. During the dark ages a few years ago you could always find 7mm rem mag factory ammo in stores like Walmart, etc.

    Is a LA/SA multi caliber rifle possible with a Terminus Zeus?

    A little off topic, but I have a Zeus QC and was thinking of buying an extra bolt with Lapua bolt face for a future 300NM barrel, that’s not recommended by Terminus? Keith at PCR was sketchy about the short amount of threads on the tenon when he chambered my 300WM. @rlsmith1 any concerns with...

    Reamer with freebore cut vs throating

    So if I’m reading this right, the chamber stops where the case neck ends, and then a taper is cut at an angle until you reach a point a distance down the barrel where the bullet will eventually engage the lands?

    Reamer with freebore cut vs throating

    This is probably a stupid question, but I googled and didn’t find a glaring answer that slapped me in the face… I had a pre-fit in 30-06 spun up for me. The data sheet that came with the barrel said the freebore was 0 and the throat was .221. Does that mean the reamer had zero freebore, and...
