    Case trimming

    The Giraud Tri-Way is not very expensive and works wonderfully. http://www.giraudtool.com/giraud-tri-way-trimmer.html However, getting one will only make you want their top of the line power trimmer.

    I'm looking to get a Precision rifle need advice.

    Yes, if you have your mind set on something, you should get it instead of trying to find a substitute. And there is very little risk with a used AI. They are going to be smooth, solid and accurate. Plus you can always get your money back if you change your mind. But realize that you probably...

    AI spigot wobble

    There are lots of fixed. Some people bed the horizontal mating features on the spigot, other people put adhesive backed grit paper on the verticle mating faces. I’ve found the grit paper to be easy and universal. It allows me to swap spigots between rifles without worrying about which was bedded...

    Chamber Scratching Brass

    I’m sticking with the barrel extension as the cause. Scratches and other imperfections can cause issues. If you are scratching rounds by hand ejecting then they are likely getting really gouged when live firing. Check a couple after you fire them. Also get some cerrosafe and make a cast of the...

    I'm looking to get a Precision rifle need advice.

    You’re likely to get a different reply from everyone on this site. It’s a personal choice based on a million preferences, application and budget. One of Franks Everyday Sniper podcasts he talks about basic rifles and advantages of a couple (Bergara, Tikka, Savage, Ruger). I started with a...

    Chamber Scratching Brass

    Check the barrel extension particularly on extraction. The ejector can jam the brass into the sharp sides on the barrel extension lugs gouging the necks leading to splits on the next firing. Edited! Barrel extension not muzzle

    Hornady one shot lube

    I’m a little compulsive. I wash my brass in Dawn and warm water to remove the lube and wash out any brass shavings. I don’t like having lube in the chamber or gunking up my dry media.

    Don’t let your children be used as pawns for gun control

    A co-worker received this notice saying that the school was “supporting” a walk out to “honor” those affected by recent tragedies. As we know the media is saying children across the country are fed up with gun violence and rallying for government action on gun control.

    Help me choose a powered case trimmer

    I have the Giraud TriWay in 223 and 308. I absolutely love them. I can’t emphasize that enough. I used to trim with a Sinclair hand powered unit that I connected to the drill. I hated trimming. The TriWay accurately trims chamfers and deburrs all in one quick step. My only regret is that I...

    Are you sure? I’ve been searching frequently since last night and haven’t seen it up. Just figured they were behind.

    Why does my brass look like this?

    Can you confirm if the power is coming from the mouth of the case or the primer? Looks like power marks beyond the shoulder but tough to tell in the images. If it is, the bullet moved out of the case letting gas out before the case expanded to seal the chamber. What were your sizing steps? How...

    Another one I’m done with

    They have gone beyond stopping to sell and are calling for a ban. I’ve already sent them a strongly worded email. Also asked if they were going to stop selling, shoes, bats, gloves...because they cause more deaths and injuries than modern sporting rifles...

    "A well regulated militia"

    If you fall into the trap of arguing about the second amendment you have already lost the debate. Because to get there you are conceding that guns caused these tradegies but they can’t take them away because we have the second amendment. Stay on topic. Firearms are not the cause. Banning...

    Use my Hornady and federal or wait for Lapua?

    Absolutely shoot what you have. When you need to buy, invest in good brass. Till then wear out whatever is on the shelf. I think you’ll be surprised at the results.

    Florida

    Many children are medicated these days so it isn’t a surprise that most school shooters are also medicated. Could be a cause. Could also just be another symptom of the underlying problem. The FBI was informed, school officials were informed, sounded like people around him just generally knew...
