    SAC And 419 Dies

    This is something that is measurable, which i did not really consider. Thankyou for the the reply. Down range performance, lets say group sizes at 1k yards are smaller or more consistent, less flyers. I have the SAC OAL tools. Great product. Before i purchased those, the hornady tools were...

    SAC And 419 Dies

    I have read alot of comparison between the two sets of dies across 3 pages so far. one of the important factors i have yet to read about is downrange performance. Anyone have some measurable down range performance comparing the two sets of dies against the cheaper sets of dies?

    Vihtavuori in a 6 gt

    The powder charge for N150 is on the high side for quickload. My real world performance over 3 barrels, 2 of them were bartlein, they ran 2890fps with 32.8g of N150 and the other barrel was a shilen which liked 32.0 of N150 @ 2860 fps.

    Do you use expanding mandrels after a full-length bushing die for neck sizing?

    Using lapua 6.5cm, 6.5x47 and hornady 6gt. Using annealeze. all brass weight sorted within 1g, using berger bullets straight from the box. 140 hybrids do not show the vertical stringing as much as the 105 hybrids in the gt and hornady brass at 1k. I appreciate the interest and wish to...

    Do you use expanding mandrels after a full-length bushing die for neck sizing?

    My performance is measured out to 1000y. My rabbit hole is trying to keep es/sd as low as that magical second firing on brass. annealing has helped a lot, but i cant quite keep the numbers as good after 4th firing and beyond, compared to 2nd firing. 2nd firing i can hold avg groups around...

    Do you use expanding mandrels after a full-length bushing die for neck sizing?

    I have tried this with the wilson mandrel after sizing. i saw no difference in range performance when using just the die. i have not tried different sizes, my dies and mandrel are .002 under bullet dia. Now I only use the mandrel with new brass.
