    Nuisance inside case neck burrs

    Guilty as charged 😉 Every once in a while I shake it off and dial things back a bit. Maybe. 😜

    Case Separation on Peterson 6.5 CM???

    Nah, just use the skinny part of the blades on your calipers. Just try to be consistent with where you place them.

    Case Separation on Peterson 6.5 CM???

    Something else... how much does your die squeeze the shoulder diameter? As an example, my 308 cases come out of the chamber around 0.455°, and they come out of most of my dies (Micron, Redding, Forster, Whidden) @ 0.453". But... the same cases come out of my Redding small base die with the...

    Realistic expectations?

    Or maybe use a front rest, higher power scope, wind flags / mirage boards. Like people who shoot actual BR do. Pretty sure those will do more to shrink your agg than pointing bullets. For a field gun shot off a bipod and a soft bag, take what you got and go practice your position and wind...

    Reloading For The AR-15: Molon's Accuracy Node Detection Technique

    Any chance you could go into more detail on how you do the composite groups using OnTarget TDS?

    Nuisance inside case neck burrs

    Now for the million dollar question... do you *shoot* any better for obsessing over the trace lines on your AMP press?

    Ultrasonic Cleaner

    Once upon a time I tried cleaning a Redding Type 'S' F/L bushing die in my Branson 2510 ultrasonic cleaner... it ended up looking like it had scorch marks on it. Never tried that again.

    Nuisance inside case neck burrs

    They don't necessarily need baffles for that to happen. I have a Thumler's Tumbler... enough .223 Rem cases, and they just kind of churn - you almost can't leave them long enough to damage the mouths. A few .338LM cases, and they ride up and fall back down, peening the everloving crap out of...

    Ultrasonic Cleaner

    This is the 'natural state' of my fired cases these days... "cleaned" with #0000 steel wool. Black gold 😉

    SAC Infinity Die

    Sounds like maybe I need to upgrade my LE Wilson seater... mine pre-dates when Wilson offered anything more than the bare minimum, and any additional functionality (like a micrometer top) were upgrades purchased separately from Sinclair International.

    Ultrasonic Cleaner

    How do you find the ultrasonic cleaners for things like removing neck turning lube from inside the cases? I have an older Bransonic with the mechanical timer that I used to use for other stuff (general cleaning, etc.) but haven't tried for this particular application (yet). I've got some cases...

    Oh shit. This just turned into another tuner thread... hang onto your britches! 😜🤣

    What causes this? (Neck "Lip")

    Possibly... between the 223 cases having less mass when they tumble against each other, and that I was generally putting as many in there (200+) as I could, they got clean without any apparent damage. 338LM... I generally did in batches of 50, and those things weigh a ton (relatively speaking)...

    What causes this? (Neck "Lip")

    Early on playing with wet tumbling I fell into the trap of leaving my match 308 cases in longer, like I did with a regular vibratory tumbler. Came out with a horrible peened lip. Something I noticed was that it wasn't just time, but the number/amount of cases and the relative size of the...

    What causes this? (Neck "Lip")

    If it's not *too* bad, sometimes you can get away with a heavy chamfer and deburr. Otherwise... it's either trim the neck short enough to get rid of the lip (and then chamfer/debur normally), or pitch it in the recycling bin and start over with new brass.

    Ballistic-X "Advanced Toolkit"

    Not sure what that has to do with... anything 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Tried installing it on another device (Samsung S6 Lite tablet). Same result.

    Ballistic-X "Advanced Toolkit"

    Did that. There was a button to restore, says it was successful... but nothing changed.
