    AT-XC bolts are not compatible with AT/AW bolts

    Where can you get an AI rifle for $4k these days?

    To Arbor Press or not?

    Can someone explain the difference between the SAC Infinity die and an LE Wilson seating die?

    May the Reloading Gods Forgive Me...

    That's fine. Some of Hornady's bullets are mostly consistent. 🤪

    Help W/New AI Rifle

    I think @MK20 was just pointing out that the trajectory of a 6.5 Creedmoor is similar to a 300 Win Mag. I know it's hard to believe but it's true. However if the OP is wanting more energy down range then something like a 300 Win Mag is needed.

    Varget vs N140

    I was getting ready to try N140 in a 308 Win with the Sierra 175 SMK and am having trouble finding loading data other than VihtaVuori. The VV data is rather anemic with a max charge weight of 41.7 grains giving a velocity of 2569 fps. I looked at load data on Hodgdon, Nosler, and Sierra but...

    Which Charge Weight would you pick based on these results?

    I agree with slowing it down . I would suggest starting at a lower velocity of 2700.

    AIAT - barrel won’t come off

    Dang, I never heard of an AT barrel stuck. Please let us know what Mile High comes up with.

    To Arbor Press or not?

    The 21st Century might be a good choice then. For piece of mind it would be good to cull out any cartridge that requires significantly different force to seat the bullet for competition use.

    To Arbor Press or not?

    I have a K&M. I use it for smaller cartridges. I tried it once for seating bullets in a 308 Win case and it was difficult. I attributed the difficulty due to the short handle on that press. Is there an aspect of your loaded cartridge you would like to improve? You mentioned monitoring...

    Brass donuts

    I think they do that for concentricity between the case body and the neck. The short range benchrest shooters do use a bushing die.

    To Arbor Press or not?

    One thing I've noticed with an arbor press is when you adjust the seating die for a certain CBTO length, you get that length each time. There is no flexing of the press between the shell holder and the die. The runout is probably more consistantly low too, although I've never done a study to...

    Varget vs N140

    I recently bought 1 pound of N140 to try. The N140 was $10 less than 1 pound of Varget.

    Varget vs N140

    I'm going to be doing the same thing. What bullet weight do you like to use in your 308? I've been using the 175 gr SMK.

    Sounds like maybe the spring under the follower is in backwards.

    Resizing Brass?

    I admit, I didn't try to comprehend your verbose questions. Fired and/or resized brass will have different measurements than new brass. The first firing of new brass will "fireform" the brass to the chamber it was fired in. That's why it's a good idea to use the same group of brass for a...

    Advice Please - Accuracy showed promise but fell apart on custom 7 mm PRC

    I had a barrel once that seemed to copper foul easily until I got about 200 rounds through it and then it would not copper foul. I have no idea why it was like this.. .
