    Hornady / Stoney Point Seating Depth Tool

    I have the older SP versions, before Hornady bought them out. There is a 'finesse' that is needed. For finding the lands, I take 5 bullets that I squirreled away before the rifle was fired for the first time, and mark them 1-5 (or 1-3 if I only use 3) and go to town. I take 3 measurements per...

    My dad had a ‘67 Ghibli when I was young and in high school/college, that was quite nice. Chris

    Wheeler Fat Wrench. Good enough for government work and better than just winging it. Chris

    Lapua .223 Brass Broke in Half

    Just another theory, you annealed the brass too much, or improperly, burned the zinc out of it and it became brittle? Chris

    Help new reloader read preasure signs 7prc

    The primer looks perfectly normal to me, but I can't account for the other markings, but to ask if Hornady brass in that cartridge, is a bit softer? Chris

    Remington 9 1/2 LR Primer Trouble for 22-250

    Sinclair LR/SR pocket uniformers, with Hornady reamers, should get any issues squared away (pun intended.) Chris

    338 Lapua Magnum

    At one point in January of '06, I had every die for the .338 LM and then settled on the Redding body die, FL S resizer, Neck S die and the Forster Comp seater. I'm just a hack, but I've shot/loaded the .338LM for many years and this stuff just works for me. Chris

    Before I ruin this nice brass how are the cool kids resizing?

    I generally body size and then use an appropriate neck bushing. I realize that some don't ascribe to this method, but that's what I do, however I'm just a hack. Chris

    What are the best value, NON-Chinese Flashlights under $100?

    For $100, or less and American made, get a used SF 6P off of Ebay and then try and source a P60 drop-in LED module. I bought a Redilast (USA) 3 mode, 1.5A, 500L module ($45) and installed that. Twist the tail cap and you advance through each of the three modes. Chris

    Chronograph??

    My PACT Model 1 had served me well for 20 years, until recently. I can send it in with a check for $15 and they'll send me a new one, but I'm not shooting much over these past 7 years. Chris

    Long range shooting ranges in Miami FL area

    I'm in Miami and there aren't any. I've gone up to West Palm Beach, at the Sherriff's range where they have 300 yards open maybe 6 times in a year. If you have a car and you're set on 1000 yards, go over to the west coast and shoot at Manatee, which is 209 miles from my home and south of...
