    Salt bath annealing advice

    Guys who paid out the ass for an automated torch annealer are going to say their system is better, more consistent, faster, whatever adjective they like. Those of us who bought the salt bath system and have used it know what a good, and economical system it is.

    Power Tools for neck turning brass

    Size, expand with K&M expanding mandrel, then neck turn. The mandrel inside your neck on the turner will keep it concentric enough. I use a carbide cutter for my K&M neck turner in 7mm. I neck down 300WM brass, expand and then turn inside and outside for an even .0135 all the way around.

    7 SAUM Shooters- Action Length Question

    Don't fall into the hype about "belted" magnums. There is no special or mystical thing that needs to be done to reload a belted magnum, once you fire the virgin brass you size it like any other case and headspace off the shoulder. I bought the Innovative Technologies die for belted magnums and...

    Best action for the $$$

    No. If you have a pinned recoil lug you can take a barrel off anytime you want if you have the tools. It's pinned, it won't move back and forth like an unpinned lug.

    Best action for the $$$

    It doesn’t, it has a pinned lug so should be good to go.

    APR G2 vs Bighorn Origin

    I have a bighorn (pre-zermatt) in a Beanland build and really like it. The problem with the origin right now is it's short action only, and I want long actions. Even for short action cartridges I'd still rather have the versatility of a long action. Anyways, I'm going to order a APR G2 before...
